Hi Guys !
JASJAR Is A Great Device , But It's Camera Doesn't Have Enough Quality , How Can I Improve It's Quality ?
Thanks.
Improve camera
Hello there,
I use Ateksoft Coolcamera with Webcamera plus, you can ajust a lot of settings with this software!
Goodluck, Leo
Thanks. I Use It Too , But It Haven't Performance Too.
In my opinion, if you want a camera you should buy a camera.
All HTC devices I've seen (and I have seen quite a few) have had really poor cameras. The 2MP in my phone actually has a mechanical focusing mechanism, and it performs admirably in medium-light (e.g. 60W incandescent bulbs) but it's not a patch on my 5MP camera.
For a cheap but very reasonable quality digital camera, have a look for the Megxon C580.
I tried every possible situation to get the camera to act like a 5MP one but not even close.
I am happy with my HD actually but the fact that it has the 5MP camera made me buy it a week ago rather than getting the TOUCH PRO 2.
Looking at the pictures with 5MP set on, they are 2592x1552 with superfine quality which even does not make 5MP (4 maybe). Pictures with N95 were way better. Is it that hard to implement a good 5Mp camera with such a great device? Was the aim for all the stories about that 5MP camera only commercial ? I feel bad now as deciding which device to buy based on specs became really hard.
I'm a bit disappointent with the camera as well, but:
- Set 'widescreen' to off. Then you get actual 5MP pictures.
- The camera quality in the new custom roms (I use Dutty's 2.1) is slightly better.
Hope it helps
Have a look here Best Camera Settings
Well, most of us are happy to have a great phone with a 5MP camera and not vice versa!

Thanks for the link. I have been reading also that the camera quality is almost as good as other 3.2MP HTCs devices which is really disappointing.
On such a small sensor, more megapixels makes the picture worse.
It's the same reason why the best pocket cameras are three year old 6 megapixel models. The new ones are 15megapixel, and are way worse.

I think you are right, maybe we should ignore the fact that cameras of HTC devices with more Mpix are better and focus on other specs like Screen/integrated Keyboard/processor/RAM/ROM.
I understand now why PRO 2 has a 3.2MP camera.
I totally agree with op but also the reasoning responses.
they marketed it as a 5 megapixel and its way below par with everything.
the phone is awesome and I wouldn't trade it with anything right now.
however I would totally sympathise with anyone who uses the camera as a deciding factor upon purchasing.
The camera is not a deciding factor but when you choose between 2 devices with same specs, one with 3.2MP and one with 5MP, you should know that you did not get anything as a plus. You only payed more.
It's only going to get sillier. New models are coming out with 8mp and 12mp, and the pictures they take are awful.
Jeez, even aps-c DSLRs from all manufacturers max out at 10/11mp, because it's counterproductive to have more (and they have sensors 245645363456546x bigger than a mobile).
So in other words, the 3.2MP of new HTC devices camera is better than the 5MP on the HD ?
The quality of the picture quality of the HD is heaps better than the pictures taken from the n95, it's just the shutter is much slower in low light on the HD, that's its weak point.
It will be a matter of time when a firmware upgrade is provided to increase the shutter.

At this sensor size, and with the same lens, 3.2mp will produce better pictures than 5mp.

3.2MP on OLD HTC device is better than the HD in terms of usability, quality is still very very good in ideal conditions.
I find the photos pretty OK in daylight. It is an average 5MP just a little worse than the N95. Just use the default settings.
I had a N95 also. Like you said, the quality of the pictures is not as good as a 2 years 5MP device. That is what i am not getting.
Man I hate reading thread like this, the fact that you think 5MP determines picture quality suggests that perhaps you buy anything before thoroughly investigating!
N95, HD, both pic quality is still very poor compared to an actual dedicated SLR or Digital camera.
Megapixels are just "dots" 1 megapixel = 1 million dots etc, therefore yes the HD can take a 5 megapixel photo, however, "megapixels" do not necassarily determine picture quality, all sorts of factors make up picture quality, such as: human knowledge and experience, lighting, the quality of the lens and sensor combination, the size of the photodiode(s), the quality of the camera components, the level of sophistication of the imaging processing software, the image file format used to store it, etc. Different sensor and camera designs make different compromises. I have n95 too and find the quality between the two similar, crap! compared to my Nikon 6mp digital camera.
Simply you dont "get it" because perhaps you dont put enough thought or research into things. Im not having a go at you, I just would assume that after 2yrs with a piece of crap N95 you'd know better.

And maybe you can explain for me why they are going through higher MPixels with newer phones if the picture quality will still suck ? This is my point of the whole thread. Dont you think it is just a commercial thing to get people interested in buying higher specs devices ?

Of course. That's been obvious for years now, same with mainstream cameras (except the dslr market, where image quality actually matters).

Higher Megapixels DO NOT determine picture quality it is merely and simply resolution, even on a high quality digital camera MP has less value than a good quality lens.
Hy i've just installed wm 6.5 henge blackstone henge on my htc hd and my camera went from 5 mp to 3 mp still i think it's better because now i can take stady shots, it's focusing more quickly but still from 5 mp to 3mp it's a diference i think.Can someone help
sorry please explain what you mean, the difference between 5mp and 3mp is the size of the image not the quality.
Hi everybody !
I have a question, u have see the pictures taked with the stock app caméra is better quality than pictures taked with the cyanogen camera app, i'm alone see this ? In the stock app we have 5 mpx and Wide Screen (i love this quality ), can i have the same quality with the cyanogen's app ?
PS : Sorry for my english.
In CyanogenMod 7 the maximum is 5 Mp and 4 Mp Wide Screen...
Cyano also lose 720p recording
Can we pray for have a day 720p recording and 5px wide ?
It's pretty noisy and produces horrible selfies, the front facing camera of my s3 is 10 times better, what do you think?
Agreed. Just compared the FFC on my S3 to the S5 and the S3 produces a much better picture

Interesting, I do think that a 2.0 megapixel front facing camera is a little low compared to the 5.0 on the M8.

Megapixel count only really matters when you want to zoom and see the finer details.
True, front camera sucks big time!!! no good!! to the point that is making me want to return it, defective. and they send me another one!?
Seems like the same front camera used in the Xperia Z1/Z1 Compact (EDIT: Actually the Z1 uses aggressive software softening of the picture afterwards to reduce noise so it's not as bad). iPhone 5s has the best front camera from my experience - I haven't tried the M8.
