Front facing camera lag

Anyone notice the lag the nexus s camera has? My gf has the my touch 4g and she gets no lag when outside.

Anyone?

well it is VGA

What do you mean by lag?
I have both phones... just held both up using the FFC on each. The MT4G seems to be quicker to respond (by maybe 1/4 of a second) and has a bit better framerate, but has a ton more noise so I think it could just be a software tweak that would equalize the two.

Mt4g flash not always working.

I have noticed my flash often fires before the camera actually takes the picture and I am often left with dark picture. Any ideas?

just moved the wife to cm7 from stock and she cant take pix with the front facing camera with the camera app for cm7 i need camera app that will let her use the front facing camers and cm7

The stock CM Camera app allows you to switch cameras on there so you shouldn't need any other apps

Ffc works fine on CM7.

The icons were a bit confusing without labels at first...
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App

The icon is definitely confusing. A picture with some mountains on it pretty much universally means "landscape mode" in the camera world. It's not really obvious that this is the button to switch from back to front camera.
The icon in the stock camera app was far more intuitive.

They are a little confusing...I wonder why they chose it like that. Anyway, CM7 all the way baby!!

Does the front facing camera work for anyone on EG22?

I am using the odex eg22 rom and any picture I take with the front facing camera does not load. Anyone else have this issue?

Not really because I flipped my phone and the back camera is now the front facing camera. So I don't have this problem.

I'm on the DeOdexed, rooted EG22 and I have a working front-facing camera.

I just tested mine with the same setup and it worked fine.

Now when you say it works, did you try taking a picture?

Picture taking works fine.

Yeah, sorry I wasn't more specific. The front-facing camera takes pictures just fine.

odexed eg22 just took a picture of myself and it works :O.

Thanks for the replies. Wonder why mine doesn't work...

It doesn't pop up in your gallery you mean?
Perhaps it's your camera app itself, have you installed the new update in the Development(I believe) forum?

Mine works. Pops up in the gallery and everything.

Mine works fine as well.

Odd, I restarted my phone and now it's working...

[Q] Camera

Just wondering if there is any way to get some of the camera options from the S3 onto this phone? I miss the option that allowed me to change the colors that showed in the picture. For example you could take a picture that showed only the blue or green objects or red and yellow. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Yeah they didnt add a lot of stuff like macro amd the colors like u said

This phone doesn't really need a dedicated macro mode because it can focus on really close objects with its default settings.

I continuously have to tap the screen to get it to zoom on an object when close.
