Hi all, having a problem with using the zoom on the SE w890 - it says 'Zoom not available in this mode' I am on the camera mode - so why should it not work?

You have the picture resolution set to the maximum. Change it and you'll be able to zoom.

Picture size, put it to VGA then you can zoom.

You don't get all the features camera wise on the walkman versions, for that you need the K versions (altho some on that can't zoom)

thanks for the help, you have saved me a trip to the o2 shop as i was gonna pop over there shortly as my wife was moaning that the phone was broken!!!

cant believe that there is no flash on the w890 either, but its a lovely compact phone.

Yeah they strip that off as well. Its either camera or walkman with Ericsson, but the new ones coming out soon look pretty neat

The cheap W810i that I owned, could zoom and had a flash.
