Hey guys after coming from my Nexus which took terrible photos I would like to use the s3 to take some photos of the kids etc. I have bought photo fx previously and am wondering how this compares to the default camera app? What settings do you guys recommend like HDR burst shot etc? Thanks for any advice

Anyone?
Why don't you try a few settings out and see what works for you? I use hdr mode for landscapes as it takes a while to merge two exposures together and kids don't tend to stay still for too long. Macro works as it should. That's about all I can tell you.

I have tried a lot of different apps for the camera, but stock seems to match or better them all for me. I am no expert but am happy with the results. As stated, hdr is brilliant for still scenes and the colours it produces are exceptional. Don't use for your kids though unless their asleep

only reason why Im not on CM10 is because the stock Samsung camera is that good...almost SLR minus, aperture and shutter adjustment...

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.
Hello team
What camera app do you use on your GN ( ICS ) ?
I personally love the default app however I cant change my default photo save folder from
"Storage Card/DCIM/Camera"
to
"Storage Card/My Documents/Camera"
I heard its possible with other apps and so was curious which one you'd recommend
THanks !
I do use stock but I'd like some app like HTC one X has... It takes like 100 pics per second lol.. I don't know if note its hardware capable of this.. But I'm really interested on this Topic also

It is new but very good. With it comes Jelly Bean galleri too.. The camera takes pictures faster than Camera ICS+ and stock camera app..

Pro cspture these are the best cameras in the Android universe.. Ics camera is fast but picture quality it's not upto the mark...
For capturing still photos and landscape use HDR camera +

Edit pro capture
As I was unsatisfied by the stock camera in terms of speed, I started looking around and found CameraMX, which is a lot faster than the stock camera, but I haven't tried out the effects...I'm not interested in effects, just solid picturetaking, so I will also try your suggestions. But if anybody has found a real snappy one (like the aforementioned One X camera), it would be nice if you would write it here

This is the 1 of the best Camera app available which competes a li'll bit with HTC ONE X and Galaxy S3 's Camera...
It can take about 200 photos at a time and yes almost 130 to 150 photos are of good quality«gud atmospheric and hand stability required»
....it also has a Free version if u cant afford but lacks some of the features like Flash etc lol

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.

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...
I've scoured the market for a better camera app with the adjustments that this phone deserves. And I'm settled with camera fv-5. Hasn't got very good reviews but it suits this phone better than the stock one.

Does this app prevent the zoom breathing that happens when recording videos with the stock camera app?
Haven't tried video and not sure what you mean by breathing .
The photo shots come out better and bigger file sizes. And you can adjust sharpness and saturation ect , like on htc. More control over camera adjustments.

Have any of you noticed when running third party cameras (even the Google camera) that there are white specks in the video. You can really see it in low light.
The only camera app that doesn't do this is the LG Stock camera.
Just curious. It's a bummer, I love the custom ROMs, but the camera is a deal breaker for me.
I know that there is a port, but it's too glitchy. I missed some really great photo opportunities because it "couldn't connect to camera".
I'm just making this thread because I am just not too thrilled with Google's camera. I'm hoping together we can figure out which camera ports out there work well for the 6P - and I'm hoping for some 3rd party camera recommendations as well.
Remember not to link paid apps here - just name them if they're paid
I'll start...
I tried the Moto X Camera shared by @not-i. I thought it was pretty responsive. The UI seemed a bit tricky when trying to use the "Control Focus & Exposure" feature.
Any other cameras you guys care to mention? Maybe I'll throw them in the OP. Let's see if this goes anywhere
The HTC camera port is not too bad but i wish it had Manual Mode.
This may sound crazy but I'd kill to have a port of the Samsung camera...
Be nice to have the Color OS Camera Ported

I like ProShot as a paid app. Wasn't excited about the Moto X camera cuz it didn't do HDR. I'd LOVE the moto x camera with HDR. I still use the stock camera app day to day because even ProShot shows too much graininess in dark shots.
Any suggestions for good night camera or action camera
Snap camera HDR. Also has a second api. Lots of options.
There's a trial option so you can check it out, can alter the icon within the app.
Edit: scratch that, just installed it and it doesn't work wtf? Gutted.
I'm using the HTC camera as my daily.
