CM7.1 camera

Is there a better camera?
Like from another rom

Synergy has the best camera I've used in a rom.

Look around for the MIUIcamera.apk. it is in the forums somewhere.

If I load a sense camera.apk on an AOSP, will it enable 720p recording/touch to focus?

CM7 camera has touch to focus. Enable it in the camera options

I doubt it'll work at all on AOSP.
But +1 on the MIUI Camera .apk

Nope, you need the sense drivers for that. Miui camera is good, salvagemod has the best video quality for aosp.

can someone post salvage cam

so.. CM 7.1 does - or does not - fix Evo 3G camera focusing? Especially close-up focusing? Where can I go to determine this definitively?

I don't have any problems with the CM camera.. However I'm still searching for the perfect apk.. isn't everyone?

So with CM7.1 my Evo camera sucks. Always out of focus in "low" light when its not even that dark.
The white balance even in daylight is way off even if set to daylight.
Is there a better camera apk that fixes this? In my original Sense ROM, the camera was "better" but still suffered from slow shutter.

I've been looking for a better camera too. I will have to search around for miuicamera
I haven't really been interested in the cameras on phones until lately. I have always wondered why CM pictures are not wide like the sense pictures unless you put it on 6M (wide), but then it is slightly lower quality. Does this mean that the sense camera shoots at 6MP by default? Or can it shoot 8MP wide?

How to improve camera quality?

Hello, i am going to buy Atrix. But camera takes pictrures ugly quality. Is there any way to improve quality? Compression? What´s about Droid 3 camera app?

I don't know about Droid 3 camera but, I'm using the camera app from MIUI as main one and for even better shots I use HDR Camera+ from the market. Try HDR Camera (not +) first to see if you like it, the + version has a lot more settings and uses flash as well.

Camera Zoom FX works a lot better, you can find it on the market.

Ya well Yikes Atrix Camera
Ya there are software options but the camera just isn't that great to start with. But the rest of the phone is amazing thanks to the development community.

using neutrino's rom atm and you can deff. notice the difference with this one or stock camera, I think it's the MIUI one

so the different cameras apps actually affect the quality of the pictures themselves huh? i thought they were there for effects, stabilization, etc.

i use miui camera aswell..just perfect !

Yeah its the same camera no matter what app/apk you use.
Only thing you can do to improve the camera quality is up the Mega pixels to 5 if you only had it on 3 for some reason. Other than that, totally placebo effect.

pictures with a HDR app look a lot better as you effectively increase the dynamic range of the camera

Not really I took two identical pictures one with MIUI Camera and one with Default CM7 camera, you can definitely tell a difference. While the sensor remains the same different apps will process pictures differently.

The camera in neutrino rom is good, but you loose the front one. Still Atrix just doesn't have the megapixels.

FX Camera takes glitch-free pictures on ics

I've found that FX Camera takes glitch-free pictures on ics roms. The resolution isn't amazingly high but seems to be the best option so far for me... you can also create a shortcut to the normal mode on ya home screen.
Hope this helps some people!

ICS MIUI based on Lord's work
I've been trying some shots, and sometimes there are glitches, and sometimes there are not... anyway it does improve what i had before (glitches ALWAYS)
When using flash, pictures are always o.k., when flash is not used, sometimes I get that blurred portion on top...

Thanks for this!
Not the best camera app around but good temp solution til we get the stock one working.

Thank you, work here for the moment...

FX camera is the app for photos
but what app is the best for recording video?
the camera glitches is the only thing keeping me from using ICS virtuos quattro.

Unfortunately you can't record video at all on any of the ics roms (yet...)

I'm using IceColdSandwich 4.0.3 - 1.2.0 and pictures are fine(I'm not too demanding with a camera's phone) but again I can't record any video

[POLL] Best replacement SENSE camera app for NOSENSE roms

i want to ask NONSENSE users which app are they using in theit aosp/cm/aokp roms in replacement of sense camera.
yeah, this thing is keeping me off to install a nosense rom, because im too attached on sense camera features (panorama, burst mode, etc) and i use often camera.

In my experience sense cameras do tend to take better pics..

Camera JB+ or Ucam

Camera ZOOM fx or Camera FV-5, both are awesome
for video recodring I use stock camera app.

They are all good solutions for Camera! Thanks! What i miss the most Island the panorama feature,which i didnt find in any Third part app. In sense panorama photos are thaken and blended togheter at full res and the result is a heavy jpg. In other apps photos are taken with a Lower resolution and are lower than 1 mb. In most case,photos are not exportable in album,but they are visibile on the app "player" or via web.
Inviato dal mio HTC Desire HD

i reply myself just to share with all that ProCapture - camera + panorama app makes panorama photos in full res (4+ MB) and not low res (600+ kb) , but there's a catch, panorama is good but takes too much time to elab photos (around 1 - 2 minutes)

Imo no camera can replace quality of picture from sense Rom, shame, I personally had best experience with snap camera.

you will not get the same quality of picture, Whatever the application is in non-sense Rom, because of framework or any other system file. Use that same application in sense rom and you will see the difference in image.

Camera FV-5 will be my 1st option n then there will be others like Camera Zoom Fx, Camera 360, Shot Control, Perfectshot, etc

Ok, here's the thing.
Everyone who wants better panorama than the one on Sense ROMS, install this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1133983

Yes and no...
App can use pretty much the same tweaking algorithms used in drivers/framework, so in theory there can be an app which would take similar pictures.

What's the best camera app you have found?

For instance... I have found that the stock camera does a great job on action photos with the sports setting whereas the Super Camera doesn't do so well, but it excels at still photos compared to the stock one. Photo comparisons coming soon... I would also appreciate if you guys could post photo comparisons too and what settings you used.

for me, i love Cymera and Vigenette
settings wise, i only change the mega pixels and i dont touch the iso and other craps.

I like Camera Zoom FX
Sent from my Verizon LG G2 VS980 using Tapatalk 4

Only alternative I really used was Camera Zoom FX. I use stock 99% of the time, works great for me.

I tried several a couple days ago and found Camera FV-5 works really well. The low light shots in that app were hugely better for color accuracy and detail than stock, Super Camera, A Better Camera, Focal, and Snap Camera. Plus Camera FV-5 does make low light shops look like oil paintings, you see the noise and the details both. There is a free version, try it out, I think you'll like it.

Why are you saying that about a completely different phone? It's not even relevant.

Photo comparissons would be nice.What i have found is that stock camera with flash or no flash takes ****ty pictures at night,especialy faces,all look like water paint.Its that stupid denoise algorithm...
