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.

Hi Guys, I want to share w/ you some PICs of Vignette camera fully tested on my HTC inspire 4G (Desire HD), No Artifacts on shoot.
This is my fisrt post (sorry 4 bad english)
Ps. I test before VIGNETTE CAMERA APP w/ camera ZOOM FX, HDR camera+, LGcamera, Pro capture camera and w/ all of it I get arfifacys.
I´m not sure if camera app functionality depends of luck or configs.
Vignette configuration (3.1 or 5 MP), no effect - no frame, no effects, no sharpness.
Edit. Sorry, I´m too NOOB to post pics links to imageshack but you can test it. But you can go http: //profile.imageshack.us/user/youngerboy66/
camera for ics :-< not working
Yup.. you are right.. I just tried with vignette cam by removing its frame setting... I'm able to get image without any glitches and artifacts... but kinda little slow in saving....

I've been testing out several (15 total) camera apps and NONE can handle; indoor, low light, and no flash photos using all default setting like G2 stock camera app. Please test out your favorite camera apps vs G2 in low light conditions and confirm this, but also try out a few awesome camera apps I've been testing out.
1. FOCAL (read on CM controversy and they just fixed FC issues)
2. ProCapture (check out Fibonacci Spiral composition)
3. Camera FV1 ( overrides brightness, huge menu and 5+ second custom exposure and manual focus)
4. Camera Zoom FX (FX)
5. Pudding Camera (full of artistic live filters)
6. Perfectly Clear (after photo fixer)
7. Camera360
8. CameraMX
9. Camera Fun
10. LGCamera
11. FxCamera
12. Nemus Camera
13. Paper Camera
14. 4.4 KitKat camera
15. Cymera

I've tried a couple too. Not all of the ones I listed but a few. The only one that comes close for me is fv-5.

Try camera awesome, its 2.99 but IMO well worth it. I'm not sure if it's compatible with stock yet, but it will let you install on any aosp ROM and backup and install on stock. I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just thought it worked really well on PA and cm vs the other options. I'm also nowhere in the vicinity of knowledgeable about photos, but they look good to me and it's quick with a lot of options.

Do we know if the camera performs better on something like CyanogenMod instead of the stock software?
Im facing a terrible problem, when I'm using the camera it is focusing right, but when I turn HDR on, stock camera or camera zoom fx, doesn't matter it focus just one time and stay with the focus signal and GUI texture. Sometimes it makes a rattle sound, but just on HDR mode, nexus 4 have an HDR through the software or hardware? I faced it on CM 10.2 stable for the first time but I gone through a lot of custom Roms and anything change it back to factory, I'm on stock 4.3 now, and facing just the focus problem, not the rattle.
Anyone?
I do have a problem with HDR mode but it does auto focus when I move camera around. If I touch to focus it wont, it just shows green already focus sign. Whoever I ask they just told to clear camera and gallery app caches so you may try it and if it works ?

Yes, this is what occur with me, I changed many times my custom rom, but I think it's camera hardware problem, but I can't see why it just occur with HDR, in all apps that use HDR hardware and not the usual software with two images I can't focus and sometimes crashes, if I let it focus it focus normally. Auto focus work, we need to find a fix.

I also experienced that sometimes selection of other scene modes(party mode for example) this tap to focus also dont work. Only fix that works is " only first focus works but if you try more it wont until restart camera app or take picture" Probably hw problem but hdr is a function of taking two pictures and combine them, why would it be a hw problem while normal mode focusing works ?

Yes but we have two different hdrs in the world, the one that is combined by software after taking two pictures, and our HDR like the iPhone one, the processor and the camera works together to take two images faster, and combines it with hardware. With software you see the camera shots two times, with hardware it's like nexus 4 and iPhone, you see 1 picture taking and a Loading icon until it saves, because it uses hardware. I think it's camera problem, if you see the camera changes when you click on HDR, the exposure changes automatically without the autofocus or touch, before that, because the hardware already changed everything to take HDR shots.

I think I might have find a solution can you try to use latest version of "snap hdr camera" ? I think it allows you to touch to focus in HDR mode(but not hdr of app you need to select it from scenemodes)

For HDR i'm using Pure HDR Camera. I have the snap hdr camera, if you compare to stock, you can see that you are able to use touch to focus because it isn't the same HDR technology, stock camera use the built'n HDR feature of the hardware, snap HDR camera just take 2 fast pics, one with low exposure and one with high exposure. The stock camera do the same thing, but because this is a hardware feature, you don't see the camera changing exposure or taking more than 1 picture. To a workaround you found the snap HDR camera and I found Pure HDR Camera, it takes 3 photos.
Edit: Here is a compare, if you hold still, Pure HDR do a better job, look the results without cheat, same hour, same exposure, same local, Snap took 2 pictures, pure took 3 and saved each exposure too.

I think you did not understand me correctly. Snap HDR has two hdr modes; first one in directly in setting menu (not so good HDR) but it only took two pictures and merge them. Second one is added only for nexus 4 (real hdr) and it is in scene mode settings. You need to check second one. I attached some pictures 1st one is taken by Snap HDR with "real HDR" mode 2nd one is stock camera HDR mode 3rd is the Snap HDR "not so good HDR" mode setting 4th one is the good HDR mode setting you should try it is the same as stock camera HDR. But problem is which I realize now, focusing still not very good and if you are stationary it still can not focus correctly but at least it tries. In snap if you move just a little and focus it by tapping it focuses correctly but in stock app you need to move camera then autofocus kicks and focuses.

Oh, know I understand, when I arrive at home I will check it. As you already saw, I think it uses the same hardware function as stock camera. Really, checkout Pure HDR camera PRO, it's awesome, and it's really like professional HDR. I think we will stay with auto focus :/. I already tried to create a custom stock camera with a updated touch to focus code but it doesn't changed anything, seems that camera change her functions when we select HDR. I will edit this post later, to achieve a better HDR picture you need to take it outdoor, when exposure change a lot.

I want to root my note 3 knox can goto hell! the only thing stopping me is that i take a ton of photos. I was wondering for those that have rooted there note 3's is the cm camera okay or is there a 3rd party app that will beat out the stock camera?
Rooting doesn't have anything to do with the camera. You will still have a same stock camera if you need it.

Not Rooted, but I am a photographer, so i'll comment on the 3rd party apps
Camera FV-5
ProCapture
CameraZoom FX
These are the more 'professional' camera apps. Personally I use FV5 and Procapture a lot, Zoom is my backup.
Just keep in mind they don't have the Stabilisation option that Stock has for night shots. But you get a lot more options in return, amongst which are shutter speed and ISO.
you can try Lenovo camera app in Themes and Apps secrion, or use DSLR camera apps.

So, we should use Stabilisation for NightShots mostly, right ?
Galaxy S3 had also few other nice modes, like Sunset. It took beautiful sunset photos, much better then Note3. Or maybe I should still experiment with the camera.
BTW, I do use 3rd party camera apps (same as yours), plus SnapIt.

Stabilisation was meant purely for low-light shots. Doesn't mean we can't use it creatively, but that was what Samsung intended it for. It even says so when you activate it.

I'm afraid those are all the options I avoid like the plague.. So I wouldn't know Perhaps someone else can be more helpful..
On my Note3 previously, it shot decent pics on the samsung ROM, but when I flashed custom ROMs (AOSP) and used the non-samsung camera app pics looked horrible.
Currently on a Nexus 6p, and I like the fact that irregardless of the ROM I use, the default camera app (e.g. Google Camera) can always shoot nice pics.
Contemplating the OP5 - is this the same with OP5? If I move from the stock ROM to any of the custom ROMs, will the camera app consistently be able to shoot the same quality pics/videos?
I stand to be corrected here..
Currently the OP camera isn't available on non-oxygen stock roms.
The quality of photos using Google Camera (or other non-OP camera apps) is generally as good as the OP camera app, and some people would say better, as the OP camera app has aggressive smoothing which is noticeable when you zoom in on a photo. The watercolour effect.
The downside of non-OP camera apps is that there isn't support for the second lens. This rules out the 2X optical zoom, and also the OP Portrait mode.
There is also a lack of support for 1080p 60fps video, and I *think* EIS for 1080p and 4k videos.
There is OOS camera in RR unofficial
