For some reason the video mode is zoomed in, a lot, compared to the regular camera. Does anyone know how to fix this? It's very annoying.
This only started after the ICS update, before that there was a zoom slider, now its gone, and its stuck on zoomed in.
I've always seen it zoomed in since Honeycomb. I don't like it either.

It 's very bad , the camera has a very small viewing angle and it seems to me that it is much better and much higher angle shot of the Samsung Galaxy Note phone , who knows maybe some updates and a fix if possible ?

I'm having trouble taking non-blurry pictures on with default camera app. Is there a setting I can change to make it better? Is the auto-focus on the Galaxy S4 really that poor? It seems like even the slightest movement or hand tremble results in blur. By contrast, I downloaded Camera Zoom and the pictures with that app are much clearer. I also never had this much trouble on my Nexus S.
I'd rather use the Samsung camera with the better layout and additional features, but it's practically impossible for me to take a non-blurry picture. Anyone having this issue or have any tips?
(I took the plastic off of the back camera already)
Double check and make sure anti shake is turned on. With it on it helps prevents blurring.
I love the 90s. Good times.
Not currently having any issues with the camera. I'm able to take perfect shots almost every time unless I'm extremely close to the subject. Are you using camera auto mode? What are you trying to take a picture of? Light conditions? How close are you? Try backing up from subject a bit and using the zoom feature.
Hi guys,
I have just got an GT-i9506 and I'm loving the size, speed and how smooth everything feels, compared to the S3 I had previously.
BUT I think I am having an issue with the camera.
I can take great photos, but the focus when close up or macro is horrible.
On my S3 if I got a little too close, I would hold the phone further back, focus on my subject, move a bit closer and focus again and so on until I was as close as I wanted to be and I was able to take the shot.
I can't seem to get this technique to work on this phone.
I find, even taking shots from a far (which the camera focuses fine with), when I zoom in after the photo is taken, the quality is horrible.
For once, heavily sharpening my images in post-production in apps like VSCO is actually helping!
Is anyone else seeing a drop in camera quality compared to older devices like the S3?
Any recommended settings in the stock camera, flashable fixes or apps people would recommend over the stock camera for this device?
Thanks
Hey guys, would just like to start a discussion on tips/tweaks that are possible on the edge's camera. I'm by no means a professional photographer but would like to learn how to take a good photo from a smartphone. Maybe someone who is pro and in the know can help.
Tbh, its not like edge's cam is bad but I envy the iphone 6's camera performance especially in too bright (they just come off darker) and low light (not bright enough) scenarios. This is most apparent when I try to take a spherical/panoramic shot with google camera, the sky wont just have the same 'brightness' when the spherical photo is stitched completely.
It seems Ip6 users can just take good photos effortlessly. In dark scenarios, ip6 users have that feature where you can just click on the area thats too dark and it magically becomes brighter without spoiling the overall photo quality.
Spec wise the edge's cam should be superior so imo the edge cam can perform close to if not as good as the ip6's with the right settings/tweaks. So hoping someone can share their knowledge regarding this. Thank you.
I love the camera so far. I also use Procamera and A Better Camera. I downloaded the add ons and am playimg with them all. I really like the placement of the controls on the Edge. It takes a bit to get used to in landscape mode, however. I would like a "low light" or "night" setting. Maybe I just haven't found it yet!
Update 2/9/15: found out the camera automatically switches to night mode in low light. Pretty cool!
I've been using Camera Zoom FX for when I need the most amount of manual adjustments to my camera.
Most the time the stock camera app can handle most situations but sometimes manual is needed and Camera Zoom has always done the job for me.
But this is an app that requires some photography knowledge and not sure if this is what you are looking for since you are looking for something that is easy to use like the I6 camera.
I've been playing more and more with the camera. I am really liking it. I was getting frustrated with the "shot and more" mode until I realized some only work in the landscape mode. Panning really gives a great effect,! This api is very intuitive. I hear the Lollipop version is even better. Can't wait.
Are there any recommended setting for the Camera ?
Thanks
I've been playing around with it and usually leave it at a lower size (between 2-3m). I find you have to hold it really still. Action shot mode always comes out more blurry. I tend to like the shot and more mode so I can choose the best picture. Auto does great for closeups and distant, plus I like how it automatically changes to night mode in darker settings.
If you are having difficulty, try a higher ISO, like 800. I had to do that on my HTC Inspire.
May i know which canera audio file to delete when click in android 6?

For the Moto X Pure, no matter what app I use, even though still pictures and videos are relatively focused and clear, when I do photosphere or panorama, the images are extremely blurry. The camera appears to drop focus from the moment the photosphere/panorama is selected, and the images come out looking like they were taking with a 320x240 camera blurred to smooth out the artifacts, when viewed at full resolution. Example attached.
It appears to be a focus issue because when I move the camera to a new capture-dot, it immediately captures a new image rather than how it was on the Nexus 5, which focused first, and then took the picture. In any case, it looks "ok" as a thumbnail sized image, but at anywhere close to full resolution, it's unusable.
This has been this way since I bought the phone, and normally I'd think it was a defect. But looking online at samples, it seemed like this was just how the Moto X Pure "worked." Yet, coming from a Nexus 5, that actually creates full resolution photospheres/panorama that are in-focus, it's really frustrating.
Has there ever been a fix for this? Or is it that my camera really has been defective this whole time, even though it works for non-photosphere/panorama images?
I'm sorry to bump, just wondering if anyone has any response to this - I've been looking for a solution since I got this phone, so any input would be great.
Just a note, I had this same problem on an LG G2. When I was running stock (5.0) google camera worked fine, but when I switched to an AOSP/CM rom (12/12.1/13) then the stitching settings would never focus before snapping (just picked some arbitrary focal point and stuck to it, instead of refocusing for every snap).
I get this on stock 6.0, 6.0.1 and CM/AOSP roms on my XT1575 - same exact problem, and same empty searches on the internet.
Nothing useful to add, just that I'm facing the exact same problem. It does not seem like it would be too difficult to fix. I'm disappointed that no one seems to care about it.
same here, really bums me out that the focus isnt good on panorama's or photo spheres!
Hi
I notice photos that I take with my phone looks like it's not properly focused and it's blurry, this only happen when I'm shooting landscapes and faraway objects, closer objects looks fine and sharp.
anyone here facing this issue or have a possible fix for it?
I tried Gcam too and it didn't help.
It looks like you are simply at the limits of the zoom and sensor resolution.

not the case, I did compare landscape photos with my previous phone (poco x3 pro) and other nothing phone photos none of them look like this
