Photos

The Activa has a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and an LED flash. I was sorely disappointed with the results. The Activa rarely succeeded at taking a really good picture. Focus was often soft and I had far too many blurry photos. Exposure was almost never correct, with either underexposed or overexposed photos the norm. The Activa was never able to balance out scenes with dark and light regions. White balance was a crap-shoot, and incorrect more often than not. I can't say I was expecting all that much from the Activa's camera, but I wasn't expecting such poor results.

 

Video

The Activa can only capture video at a max resolution of 640 x 480 (VGA). It's pretty pathetic. Take the entire list of problems noted above in the photo department and apply them here. Focus was inconsistent, white balance was often wrong, and the exposure was wildly uneven depending on the lighting.
