Does the new cover effect the camera quality?

No. The cutout is the same. Your battery life will get better but the phone is not that great

I wouldnt say it ruins it since the screen is still Hd quality and you can tell that. It kind of like wheb you have that thin sheet of plastic on a new electronic. Its hard to tell its there but you can see the refraction of the light from the screen which gives it a textured looo. It honestly doesn't bother me when I watch vids or anyone else that sees vids on it and the benefits from it Trumps any minor loss of clarity

Nope, mine actually look fine. You might not be waiting enough before you press the button down all the way. You're supposed to push the button down halfway, wait until the little square turns green and then press the button down all the way. One of the things that I actually really like about this camera is that I can take pictures even when moving and they don't turn out blurry. You just have to wait for that little green square.

No it didn't. I have cut the cover off at this point. I hated the fact that it covered the camera anytime I wanted to take a picture.

Hasn't happened to mine...it's been on my iPad for 1.5 haven't changed it yet. I was thinking of moving to the anti-glare but as far as function, this cover has done its job.

The multi-element shutter which closes provides only a partial protection. I fell in a forest onto an exposed tree root on the ground, which made a dent in the identical lens cover of my ZS19 camera I had in my pocket - I just finished taking photos. Lens was not damaged, but I had to finish my vacation manually opening the cover. Sent the camera to a Panasonic Factory Service Center in Texas, a month later got my camera back with estimate $190 for repair. I am considering to purchase this newer model now, I am very happy with the photos the old one took.

I think you are right here. I don't believe it is a lens problem as I have see this problem across a couple of lens. I did two things that seem to make a different, the first was I completely reset all the camera setting and second thing I did was up grade the camera fireware from version 1.0. 4. to version 1.0. 9. This seems to have made a difference.

You could probably change the ISO/shutter/aperture settings to compensate for low lighting, but I usually set it to Auto mode, and I feel it's not bad. I can still see relatively well although it's rather noisy/fuzzy (it hardly bothers me, but I usually try to avoid low lighting anyways).

It's definitely no worse than the older version. But still sucks at AF speed. and has banding issues on some of the olympus bodies.

My pictures only come out hazy when I'm unsteady. I don't think the case has ever caused a problem with pictures or videos and I use it for them frequently.

No, it does not have any affect on the photos. All my photos are still clear and beautiful.Hope this helps.

I've noticed this to be true as well. The idea never actually occurred to me that the issue was the case until now. I typically take the phone out of the case to take quality pictures though.

I'm thinking it might be related to the dark corner issue. I noticed more than one reviewer complained about this and there are photos posted up in the customer photo section illustrating this issue. I was going to purchase this camera myself until I saw this potential problem. For example:

I do understand the question, and I had considered cutting another hole in the cover for that very reason. But, rather than possibly screwing up the cover I resigned myself to having to remover the tablet from the cover in order to take decent pictures.

There is a protective cover but, it is against quality. The Q4 turned out to be a bubble gum machine prize: cheep, in both feel and in movie quality.I could not believe the lack of quality in one I bought so I got another. Then I returned both and bought a decent camera (a Nikon D 5200) the difference in quality was way greater then the difference in price. I would not recoment this camera to a friend or even an enemy. I have rarely been so dissatisfied with a purchase.

I'm not very happy with the camera. As far as it sticking out I got a case for it and that eliminates the problem. I do have issues with blury pictures and the camera has not met my expectations overall. I would not re comend it.

That has not been my experience. I shoot JPEG and the colors seem natural. I have had to adjust white balance on indoor shots in mixed light more than the Canon DSLR it replaced though. Overall a great camera!
