I can't take any shots for my camera auto focus works so badly !!! It keeps auto focusing continuously ??? Any suggestions to stop it ???:good:
My experience is that it only refocuses if you are moving the phone.
The only exception to this has been if you tap to focus on a spot other than center. In that case, you have a limited amount of time before it resets to the center.

I've been having this problem when every few photos, just a plain green picture is taken. And sometimes there are distorted colors. I decided to play around with the settings to check if it changes anything.
I found out that the problem is keeping the focus mode in Continuous Auto focus. Keeping it in this mode apparently has problems which are the green photos, distorted colors, and around 2 seconds of lag between the shutter and the photo being taken.
Keeping it on Auto took off 2 of the problems which were the green photos and distorted colors. But it was still kind of laggy, I think it's supposed to be this way though to have time for it to focus
Putting it on Infinity fixed all of it, I took over 20 photos without any problem or lag.
I don't know why that problem occurred, but it's probably just the camera firmware and not a hardware problem.
Hope I got to help
Hello everyone. in my moto g I noticed that when I take a picture with the front camera (any app) the frame that is saved is that this one or two seconds before the time when actually shooting the photo. with the rear camera does not have this problem. only if you use the hdr the problem disappears as the latter tends to delay the capture, the problem is that the app I use does not have the option to use the HDR.
someone has a possible solution?
edit: I realized that the problem is in low light conditions. When there is a lot of light the camera works perfectly
I have a problem with the cameras constant focus. If i want to take a picture of any object, the camera first refocusses, making it impossible to take pictures of sports events etc. I have to predict actions 2 seconds in the future, because when i hit the shutter button, the camera first unfocus and focus again and then takes the picture. Also, when the camera is idle, it refocus every few seconds.
Touching and holding the screen brings up the blue dotted circle which locks focus, but the blue circle disappears again after a few seconds....
I have tried a 3rd party camera app, same problem.
How can i lock focus and keep it locked?
Reply to self: downloaded Sports mode; big improvemnt

To my surprise, the camera app lets you download extra modes. One of them is Sports mode, which takes pictures instantly when touching the shutter button. This should be default behaviour in my opinion.
So, I've been having some issues with the focus on the rear facing camera for the V20
This is a pic with the Wide Angle Lens:

It's crisp and clear (ish)
This is a pic with the normal lens:

It's blurry as hell, unless I'm like two inches away:

I've tried in both Auto and Manual mode, and have tried the focus in both Auto and Manual.
Any ideas?
Many thanks.
P.S. sorry for the imgur links, I haven't posted enough to be allowed links in side my post.
Nope. Just issues with longer focus in darker scenes but that is every phone. Lens clean?
Did you find any solution, I've the same issue.
#4
i have same issues
any solutions?
Tap to focus
I find just pointing it and clicking doesn't set focus properly with some scenes
It's a bit odd as the G4 would have zero issues with this and the V20 also has IR AF
Any Solution yet?
I am also having the same issue, the focus doesn't work, neither manually nor in auto mode. Sometimes, just sometimes, it luckily does work, but most of the time it doesn't.. i dont understand what the problem is..
Recently, the camera was acting way weird, like showing dark picture with green lines, and sometimes it wouldnt even open, it showed just a black screen, i cleared data of gallery and camera, which resolved the issue, but still void of ability to focus.
In manual mode, when i modify the focus to the flower, which i understand as it will blur the background and let the object focused.. but it doesn't work, just for half a second then blurs everything.. any help?
I can confirm Focus -manual and Auto is messed up when it comes to macro
It focuses perfectly for half a second before messing up completely again
