Nexus One Camera Quality

I'll tell ya, the quality of the camera on this thing is bad ass. Attached is a panorama I shot with it yesterday.
The original is really high resolution too.

Glad you were in such a nice place. I was wondering how you took such a good panorama shot? (was it a specific panorama app?)

nice shot.. i too am extremely satisfied with the cam on the nexus. care to share the app you used to take that panorama?

I too am interested in that app

Not sure if there's an app that can be used directly on the phone but there's many PC applications that can stitch together a series of photos flawlessly like this. But if there is one on the phone I'd be interested in it!
And that's a beautiful picture!

It's not an app on the phone. I just shot the photos then stiched them together with Windows Live Photo Gallery.
All you do is put your photos into the live photo gallery, highlight them all, right click and select "make panorama".
The optimized version doesn't do it justice, the original is 7500 pixels wide. Took a lot of other ski photos, it was nice not needing a separate camera - every photo came out stunning.

Looks fantastic! Is that with the Desire Camera, or the stock Nexus one?

This is the Desire ROM Alpha 21. I would assume that this is the desire camera app, although I've never seen the normal nexus app so I wouldn't know.

Thanks for the info. The stock camera is good... but the Desire camera is way more adjustable. So far the standalone Desire camera app that PaulOBrien ported for us is the only reason I'd consider rooting.

Android Camera Alternative?

I am currently running Froyo on my Desire, but one thing i REALLY miss is the HTC Camera, as it is far superior to the stock Camera app.
Does anyone know a good alternative? or preferably an APK that will let me install the HTC camera?

Totally agree with the Sense camera being far superior to the stock one.
Would love to see if anyone could port it.

Wow 191 views and no one can recommend an alternative camera app? that kinda sucks,

camera 360 seems nice enough

Vignette?
best cam app i found so far, loads of fun playing with filters and fx

There is one called Camera ZX I think, check that out.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

there is FX camera and retro camera both are free and quite nice

From those I've tried on my own device and that of my friends, Camera Pro, Camera Zoom FX, FX Camera and Vignette are the better apps. They all have differences though, and limitations. They take the same pic slightly differently, sometimes very differently. The most sharpness, visual acuity and the least noise in taken images I've found with the stock HTC camera app, but the best colour reproduction, white balance and contrast I found with Camera Pro. In daylight and at night, these aspects looked almost indistinguishable from what my eyes were seeing of the objects. The best overall app was Camera Pro for me, but, it didn't have the high quality shot settings which others did, and that made a big difference for me. Enough to not use it.

Camera application

On default camera application, i seted best qualitu, but images little smooth because jpg commpresion is on high level.
Is there any chance to set commpresion manualy or turn off compression?
Or maybe anybody know another good camera app?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

Manually set compression? Not aware of... Probably if you modify the camera.apk.
Did you tried to remove the back and take pictures without the cover? If there is a huge difference, then remove the plastic covering the lens - I have it like for 6 months now.
Good camera app? Zoom FX, Camera 360 ultimate ect...

Ok, i will try this app. Maybe photos cant be better, because phone is not camera :-/
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App

I'll try too, thanks!

about the cam app...
you can try "HDR camera" from the markett
there´s a free version with a banner here and there, personally i live with it
it takes 3 pictures and computing the best resolution or something like that..
just remember its a suckysucky cam app for taking pictures of moving objects because of the "3 picture thing" it has..
im just a noob here so i cant upload a picture taken with HDR so you gotta test it out yourself, have a good one!

search a bit around...you have to edit the build prob and set up this..
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100
most roms..should have this inside...like mine hybrid
with kind regards

Camera Apps Which one do you use ?

Which Camera app do you Use ?
I have tried quite a few but mostly I use Stock and Camera Zoom FX.
2.Camera ZOOM FX
3.Pro HDR Camera
4.Camera FV-5 Lite
6. I forgot to add CameraPro
7. ProCapture - camera + panorama

Stock camera is one of the best for pictures.
I use Pro HDR and HDR Camera+ for HDR.
Camera FV-5 for creating burst panoramas, and lgCamera for movies only.

wrong section post in Q & A section... I use Camera 360

Camera zoom fx saw it on iPhone as well.

Stock one. I think it's functional enough since I don't like effects and filters. Just downloaded the 4.2 camera. Hopefully it'll be as good as the say.
