Is it just me or does the camera on HTC Sense seem better than the stock Android one?
And also which one produces better quality images?
Are u running a sense rom or just comparing a sense phone to a stock?

I'm comparing Virtuous to CM 6.1.1 both stock cameras on each rom.
Image quality they should be about equal. I think I prefer the Sense camera though for the sounds alone. I HATE the focus and shutter sound on the stock cam. Wish I could find an APK for the DZ 1.72 cam that works on CM6.1.1

The gallery in sense probably just displays them in full resolution.

Ah, good to point out. Sometimes the picture previews in some programs aren't full resolution to cut down on processing times, delays, etc.
Is anyone able to confirm this? I also think they may look a little bit better in Sense but I must admit that when I viewed them using another image viewer afterwards they looked about the same. Didn't pay enough attention to make a qualified report though.
Best way to test would be to just put both the sense pic and the stock pic on your computer.

I'm running this ROM here
GorillaSens DHD-MT4G ROM-FINAL #Team Galaxy Sense Glacier
But my MMS photos look ****ty. Can I improve them, maybe to the sexy quality the were on Cyanogenmod 7?
Really? no one knows?
I have ILWT cm7 , and i think is the best rom , anyway i do not know but the camera on cm7 rom's sucks a lot. I mean: when i tryed (a lot of time) sense roms , and sometimes MIUI the camera is better , for quality , focus and all.
I would like to have a sense camera on CM7 , i think is impossibile , or someanother solution?
Thanks
Currently on ILWT, and I use the camera a pretty good amount. Haven't noticed their to be much difference (if at all) in picture quality between the CM7 camera on ILWT and Sense cameras (which I used for a long time). I find the MIUI camera near useless (at least the one you have the option to choose in Aroma on ILWT while flashing), due to the lack of selectable ISO.
Have you tried adjusting ISO and white balance? These often will give less blurry photos if you manually adjust them. Both Sense and CM7 cameras take too much time calculating the proper white balance and ISO, resulting in long shutter delay and resulting blur from camera movement.
You can try the MIUI camera app, it is offered as an option in the ILWT.txt configuration file.
I'm running ILWT and much prefer MIUI camera to CM7 camera app. That said I think Sense camera and in particular the one included in the Doubleshot ROM gave me the best results. That is actually the only thing I'm missing from Sense, the very nice camera app.

I totally agree with this.
Actually, the HTC Amaze Cam from the MT4G gave me the best results i have EVER had from my phone. That's the only thing that makes me want to go back to Sense.

You're right - forgot about the Amaze camera app which produced very fine results. Still not enough to make me want to go back to a horribly slow experience.
When one of the Sense 4A ROMs get a working camera I might be intrigued. I flashed one just to try it out and it seemed remarkably smooth compared to any of the Sense 3.0/3.5 ROMs.
Until then, ILWT and MIUI cam it is

Needless to say, it will not make your phone do anything that is not supported by the hardware.
Photos will remain 5MP maximum and the sensor in our phones doesn't support burst mode and other features that is not normally supported.
Also, using the Amaze camera app you are stuck on a Sense 3.0/3.5 ROM that is painfully slow compared to AOSP ROMs.
So far I've landed on ILWT CM7 with MIUI camera app as default.

the xperia rom is fast and uses sense 3.5, I also have the amaze camera running on it, you can change the media_profiles.xml file to have no compression but you will have large photos (3mb) I do notice some difference.
I also removed the plastic cover around my camera and made a glass one, that made a huge difference but it was a pain to do.

Wow, you changed the lens cover? Did you happen to take any pictures of your handywork? I would love to see them in that case

I'm running CoreDroid on Inspire 4g and this Sense 3.5 is running like an aosp. Pacha's sense 3.5 stripped down senseless, I get the same quality. Love cm7 but, sense camera is the best hands down. I've been through so many cameras on cm7 and nothing compares to the sense camera. I've yet to try thee Amaze app. Gonna give that a go now.

actually, im a little underwhelmed with the photo quality to be honest. Iphone pics and htc one X pics are miles ahead. dont know about the galaxy s2 though. Id suggest just going with the One X anyways if you have the cash for it. The desire HD is an older phone, even though it still does everything right

Lol crap Iphone make good pictures ???
Don't know where yo heard ore seen that because that's not true
I have both phones and the DHD wins miles over the Iphone
( only filming in HD the Iphone wins )
ok tnx guys i will buy it sure
Desire HD is great for taking pics its superior to hero I had before.
Flash is ok.
If you want full camera options you need sense though, ics camera is still buggy on most roms untill htc releases kernel, stock android camera like cyanogen is limited and grainy for my personal experience. Miui is good but limited.

What?? The iPhone 4s is known for taking beautiful pictures... Im no apple fanboy and I stand by android but iPhone 4s clearly takes better pictures than the desire hd. Now the One x(my current baby) blows both out of the water. OP, if you have the $99 for a HTC One X I highly advise it
The DHD camera is great, just make sure you use the stock camera app or the MIUI one.
Here's a few pics I took with it. You can judge yourself. They're not on par with a standard digital camera, but I think they come close. A better photographer would probably get something a little crisper.

These aren't the DHD's full potential, the sun's glare was too much and I couldn't really see my shot until I took it.
You can judge if the camera is good enough for you (Note, this was taken with the Inspire 4g, which should be exactly the same as the DHD in terms of camera)

I made some tests, and for me THE BEST camera app is Camera Pro (Camera X) for NICE Steady photo mode, horizontal level (oh yeaah), and other ... also, considering post #2 link, You can catch better photos.
Also, I noticed, that THE BEST and awesomes Photos & Videos are making in Virtuous Infinity (better, than stock).
Virtuous Infinity uses stock sense camera should be no difference to other sense Roms.

yes you should definitively check my Desire HD camera guide
but to give you a final conclusion
the Desire HD camera can give great clean 8Mpixel results with very little digital processing, however the shutter speed is slow, so patience and a stable hand is required
