In the default camera settings, not too good. Too bright and washed out. But with the update to Android 4.2.2, there are many more settings and features on the camera. You may be able to find settings that are pleasing to you. However, even with a 5 MP camera, tablet cameras will not give pictures as good as a dedicated camera or even a modern smart phone. It has a 4X digital zoom. As you zoom in quality suffers.

I like this camera, but I haven't been able to get a great motion shot yet. I may be doing something wrong. I am not an expert. The zoom is fantastic.

Pretty decent. Zoom looks grainy at times but sound wise id say this is a great little cam!

The zoom is amazing. As for wide its goes wide like other cameras. But doesnt do any kind of panoramic that i can tell. Just put it on a stand and turn camera slightly after each shot and you can make your own panoramic.

low light recording is good as long as you do not zoom. The bigger the aperture of the lens the better quality of the picture

Yes it does have zoom but it is digital zoom so it may cause grainy pictures.

The camera is good. I've used it for instagram and posting to fb. Sometimes it looks grainy but need to make sure the settings are on the highest resolution/pixels possible.

Yes it does have the ability to zoom in for close images and out to include the background

You can get decent quality pics from the rear facing camera. It has several settings for adjusting resolution, shooting mode, exposure, etc. You'll want to change the storage to the external sd card otherwise you'll run out of space quickly. The flash can be overly bright and can wash out your subject if you're too close. I like the panoramic shooting mode. I find pictures taken with the zoom are less detailed. The front facing camera produces good quality pics. I haven't used it with any chat apps like Skype so I can't comment on that. Video mode works well too.

Qaulity is great. There is even a closeup button that zooms in very well! I ise mine almost daily ;-)

I have one. It is VERY smooth and you can zoom from camera or the handle and you can program the speed of the zoom. Fast on camera, slow on handle. NICE NICE NICE

It's pretty decent! It's a bit grainy, and you can only zoom in like once before it gets into super gross and grainy, it has a blue tint to photographs. but here's a regular zoom pic with no filters:https://www.dropbox.com/s/itdukx4wzj3u3j5/2013-06-22%2013.30.41.jpg

Hi Erica- I like this camera a lot. I mostly usethe camera for shootingthe interior of rooms. The wide feature of the lense is excelent, I have not used the zoom to shoot distance.

I used it at multiple concerts this summer and the pics came out great! You just have to adjust the lens and the zoom on the phone itself. I showed it for video too.

Absolutely, as it has a built in flash. Whether day or night, the pictures are very clear. The only time a problem occurs with pictures is when the direction of the sun is shining right on the lens of the camera.

No the camera doesn´t have ZOOM, I download software camera zoom fx and with this software the camera has zoom.

I used it once for a wedding, and it was perfect. I used an attached flash, as the built in flash gets blocked on the widest setting. Mostly I use it for travel and scenery. Best at f8 if you want sharper edges and corners, as with most zooms. In vertical shots, the tops of trees still get a little blurry, so I have a couple of primes for critical work needing greater enlargement.
