Does anyone else's camera seem overly grainy?
Mine appears incredibly grainy before the picture is taken and still doesn't come out as well as many sample pictures I have seen online.
Edit: I looks like my camera is permanently zoomed in...is there a way to zoom out that I am missing?
Mine only looks bad in low light. Maybe make sure its not in macro mode. In the camera app go to settings and make sure the focus mode is set to auto focus.
I have the same exact issue.
Mine is grainy too. Any tips?
Grainy or noisy? Pics please.

Anyone notice this strange problem:
After updating to Froyo, about 1/4 of the time when using the camera flash, I get a dark picture. The flash goes off every time it is supposed to, but the camera sensor takes the picture after the flash goes off, resulting in a very dark picture as if the flash was disabled. Take another picture and it usually works.
Happens in stock camera app and 3rd party apps too.
2.2 rooted, stock rom, etc. (Happened before I rooted 2.2)
I've noticed this. What else I've noticed is that the photo may be dark, but it's still very high quality. It isn't grainy and rough like a photo taken without a flash. It leads me to believe that the camera is adjusting the settings to take more of a "true" lighting with high quality.
It's not -- I often take pictures inside a dark bar at night and you care barely see anything on then and it's a noisy mess. I did some more test shots yesterday and it really is really is funny the EXIF data shows the flash being used, even though clearly it wasn't synced up properly.
I also notice that it is usually the first pictures or so when you start the camera. If you take many successive shots, it doesn't happen........
I tried switching from 3mp to 2mp to see if that helps. I find the lens to be pretty low resolution that even 3mp is pushing things.
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?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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.
Hi,
I just received my Galaxy S5 a few weeks ago. It works great but the camera takes really bad pictures. I searched the web and disabled the
picture stabilizer but the pictures are still not good. I have to hold the camera perfectly still to get a picture that is not washed out. Is there
any other settings I can change to make this better?

I am using the FHD (60FPS) 1920x1080 on the rear camera and it seems to want to focus on anything other than what I select on the screen.
I will click to focus on my object and then it tends to undo my click and start focusing on other stuff.
If I don't do that the other issue is, it CONSTANTLY auto focuses a LOT.. Video will go blurry and then refocus and continues.
Anyone else having that issue?
Another issue I noticed is if I use the 4:3 (12M) 4032x3024 for pictures that the object is moving slowly, it will blur it but if I turn it down to 4:3 (6.2M) it will take a clear picture focused.
So, I've been having some issues with the focus on the rear facing camera for the V20
This is a pic with the Wide Angle Lens:

It's crisp and clear (ish)
This is a pic with the normal lens:

It's blurry as hell, unless I'm like two inches away:

I've tried in both Auto and Manual mode, and have tried the focus in both Auto and Manual.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.
P.S. sorry for the imgur links, I haven't posted enough to be allowed links in side my post.
Nope. Just issues with longer focus in darker scenes but that is every phone. Lens clean?
Did you find any solution, I've the same issue.
#4
i have same issues
any solutions?
Tap to focus
I find just pointing it and clicking doesn't set focus properly with some scenes
It's a bit odd as the G4 would have zero issues with this and the V20 also has IR AF
Any Solution yet?
I am also having the same issue, the focus doesn't work, neither manually nor in auto mode. Sometimes, just sometimes, it luckily does work, but most of the time it doesn't.. i dont understand what the problem is..
Recently, the camera was acting way weird, like showing dark picture with green lines, and sometimes it wouldnt even open, it showed just a black screen, i cleared data of gallery and camera, which resolved the issue, but still void of ability to focus.
