Review: Samsung Blast
When using the camera or the video camera, the Blast takes a little while to get the lighting and color right. Even given time to adjust, shots in less than ideal lighting (either too bright or too dark) don't come out right. They often lose color in areas of extreme light much more so than on other phones. Indoor shots come out good with nice color balance and even lighting. The Blast also impresses on the indoor eye chart test with 20/40 vision.
You can watch as the Blast tries to adjust the color and lighting in this video. Once it has settled on good levels, motion is smooth. The microphone only records nearby noise, completely silencing a very loud tractor even when it was less than 50 feet away.
It should also be noted that the Blast saves movies as .mp4 files, however they are still in .3gp containers. In order to play these movies back on a PC, you will need to change the extension to .3gp.
