Hi all,
I tried to put the flash (light) for a picture, and I have an issue... The flash is lightening before taking the picture, so it's useless ...
Do you have the same issue ?
When I turn my flashlight on it stays on until I turn it off.
It stays on, but it's brighter on the moment the picture is done.
I've tried to make photos in front of a mirror to see if it is lightening before taking the picture or not. In my device (HTC TyTN) the flash comes just at the right moment, so it's not useless, but the shooter sound comes about 1 second after the picture is really taken.
Do you have a lot of applications running? probably your device is running slow and that's why you're experiencing this. Are you experiencing the same issue just after a hard reset?
Yes maybe, I'm going to try the mirror test
I have the same problem
The flash light it is NOT syncronized with the capture moment.
I think the question here should be;
When is the capture moment?
Pressing of the button does not coincide with the shutter sound or flash lighting... This is probably as the flash lights when button is pressed, at which point the device starts image transfer and the shutter sounds after picture is complete (try moving camera after shutter has sounded and before)
I recognized yesterday when I shot some photos - flash was set at "auto" - that I got only had black pictures...
Anybody knows a solution for this issue?
move your finger off the lense?
sorry, I just had to...
have no idea. I'd say it could cause some software fail which could be fixed by SoftReset? maybe

What was your battery level like, I know when my battery level is low (sub 20ish percent) the quality of the camera and flash (and the final result) is reduced.
really weird, didn't put my finger on the lense and battery is full. if I make a picture with enabled auto flash, the first photo is always black. if I switch off auto flash and enable flash then I have a normal photo.
if opera is running I get memory error of the camera application, also if I have around 133mb of free ram.
I've been having this problem when every few photos, just a plain green picture is taken. And sometimes there are distorted colors. I decided to play around with the settings to check if it changes anything.
I found out that the problem is keeping the focus mode in Continuous Auto focus. Keeping it in this mode apparently has problems which are the green photos, distorted colors, and around 2 seconds of lag between the shutter and the photo being taken.
Keeping it on Auto took off 2 of the problems which were the green photos and distorted colors. But it was still kind of laggy, I think it's supposed to be this way though to have time for it to focus
Putting it on Infinity fixed all of it, I took over 20 photos without any problem or lag.
I don't know why that problem occurred, but it's probably just the camera firmware and not a hardware problem.
Hope I got to help
Does anyone else have this issue with their Galaxy S5? On any object that's closer than two feet, it will have trouble focusing. I know it's able to focus because when I tap on the screen I can see the object in perfect clarity for a split second, and then it gets unfocused and fuzzy.
Should I exchange my phone?

I know from doing regular photography, if you're on auto-exposure mode, and you don't have enough light to get a good photo, the camera will struggle. Add flash if you're not already, or have some extra ambient light on your subject.
On low light condition focus of s5 camera is just rubbish. You see something esle while clicking, but photo that comes out after holding it for 5 secs is blurred.
I have a problem with the cameras constant focus. If i want to take a picture of any object, the camera first refocusses, making it impossible to take pictures of sports events etc. I have to predict actions 2 seconds in the future, because when i hit the shutter button, the camera first unfocus and focus again and then takes the picture. Also, when the camera is idle, it refocus every few seconds.
Touching and holding the screen brings up the blue dotted circle which locks focus, but the blue circle disappears again after a few seconds....
I have tried a 3rd party camera app, same problem.
How can i lock focus and keep it locked?
Reply to self: downloaded Sports mode; big improvemnt

To my surprise, the camera app lets you download extra modes. One of them is Sports mode, which takes pictures instantly when touching the shutter button. This should be default behaviour in my opinion.
