    I have had my z3 for about two weeks and so far am very pleased with it. The one thing that really annoys me is the camera. I knew before I bought it that it was a 5mp snapper which is not a problem at all as my previous phones were all 5mp (nokia n97, htc desire, lg optimus black, nokia lumia 620). But the camera on the z3 really really bad, especially when the flash is involved. Every photo I take with the flash or in low light situations comes out terrible with weird colours and totally grainy. Compared to the other phones I mentioned, there is a big difference. I mean, I realize that its a budget phone but to have a camera this bad is almost criminal. Someone suggested that it might be a software problem and that 10.3 might improve it considerably. Any ideas?

    Actually they ARE white. Nothing looks like it is supposed to when photographed. That's the problem.

    These are 2 photos taken with and without flash. As you can see, the ones taken with flash come out really orangy and almost like sepia. Is this a hardware problem or can different software help to solve this issue? Thanks.
