whenever i take a picture it takes a few seconds for it to actually take the picture.... is this normal? or do i need to change certain settings so it captures the image instantly?
make sure it's focused first, otherwise it will try focus then take the picture.

I think that it is the 'normal' behavior, reported also by other users.
Beside focusing before making the photo, it might also work to select the mode in advance.

in my view it is NOT normal.
Latest firmware update have reduced this lag to"almost" zéro. MEA was the first to well adress this issue, now we have MF8 release.
try Camspeed app at the play store, you will see the point you get and check with the relevant op on this subject

My latest firmware is xuamdm at the end. Anyone else got different to this?
It should capture an image quicker than it does. Thanks for your replies

Anyone else's preview screen when taking pictures or videos is black? Why doesn't it show the viewfinder?
Also, I posted this question 2 hours ago but the thread was removed? What gives? If a thread is deleted at least PM the poster and explain.
Thanks everyone, this has seriously been bugging me and I'm not sure if it's a problem with my Note only.

I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean that when you tap on the camera app, it opens the camera interface, but you only see black? But when you click a photo, it comes out fine?
If so, it seems to be an issue with the software.
Yeah that's exactly it! Anyone else!?

Hey Guys!
I'm trying to make a collage using 3 photos in the stock gallery, I have made a few of them. I'm using all high quality photos to make the collage, however, when I make the collage, it shows up as very grainy on the phone and on PC. Any idea how to fix this?
Thanks!

Long press a picture... check the box for a couple pics... Press menu and hit collage.
Then avoid hijacking threads. Just kidding

One of the most used apps is the stock camera app. But I'm a little annoying with it. For example. When I record I like to always have it on SMOOTH 60 fps video. When I exit and resume recording, it goes back to the normal setting. Is there any way around this?
I hate this too. Anyone have a hack for this.

It doesn't end there. When trying to take a selfie the front always reverts to best face shot too.
dont forget the thanks button if I helped out!!

there is a modded apk which makes 60 fps recording default.. but it's only for n900 I think there is a similar one for n9005 too.. but for other settings I dunno, I hate this too

One thing that's bothered me about samsung phones is the 1+ second lag between pressing home and power for screenshot.
I'm kind of ashamed of this because my brother's old iphone4s instantaneously takes screenshots.
Is there some manual way to change the amount of seconds it takes for it to register a screenshot? Or a mod?
Thanks!?

There is an Xposed Module that decreases the delay but I don't see why you'd be ashamed of the delay, there is no advantage or benefit to taking faster screenshots.

Yes I tried that but it had no effect.
It's just that I have a rooted phone and anything I wish to do should be able to be done. When u use alot of screenshotting it would matter to you to.

I take a lot of screenshots and the delay doesn't bother me.
The delay can cause issues when trying to screenshot something that is time sensitive, such as something in a game.

Yes that too. I know there's a xda post on manually shortening the delay in system on ICS, I'm just wondering if someone knows of a way to do it on 4.3 note3 vzw.

The Camera app has just been updated on my Z5 .. unfortunately, I forgot to take a screenshot of the changelog (but mostly it seemed to be about the UI and Superior Auto seems to be improved). EDIT: see @schecter7's post directly below mine for the changelog!
Looking at it, the UI was changed the same as how it was supposed to look like based on the promo videos and demo units from before. Sadly, there is no manual shutter speed yet as far as I can see, manual focus, and still cannot change ISO when shooting at 20MP/23MP mode.
We all know thought that Sony tends to have 'hidden' changes to their algorithm whenever they have these kinds of updates as evidenced from updates before. I'm still waiting for the complete changelog from XperiaBlog but so haven't time yet to do any extensive testing.
Did you notice any significant changes in yours apart from the UI changes?
Changelog attached
Edit: Now we could swipe to change modes, added another (third) screenshot.

Limitet manual , no iso at 20-23 mp
Low light photo blure decreased
Left blure rest with no change
I installed the update and I've noticed that the problem with noise in low-light... in fact ingeneral is a bit better. It's still not as good as the galaxy line as far as crispness / saturation, but I don't think that's Sony's goal. For real, if I could install the Samsung camera app and libraries on this phone, I'd be all over that. Anyway it does seem to have improved, noticeably.
Where can I change the GPS tag and save folder location in this new app? Can't find it. Thanks.

Trying not to speak too soon as I've not done anything near a comprehensive test but there do seem to be improvements in processing, though not as marked as I had expected. The one biggie is the zoom: to my eyes, the processing on the zoom is much better now; the sharpening fringing on edges is much smaller, which means that it's less of an oil painting mess when you crop the zoomed image. And that's in low indoor light.
8MP generally seems sharper.
More to follow.
On the interface, I note that they've hidden the exposure and colour adjustments on SA in a menu (boo!) but given a button to switch them off when you want to return to auto (yay!) swings and roundabouts but generally pleased.
EDIT: Yep, definitely better digital zoom. Good enough to piece together small text (Just about legibly) at 5x. Trust me: it was not doing that before!

Interesting. Mine is like this... I have even cleared the camera data.

So still no manual shutter speed in this update?
I thought that this would be a given since the Z5 supports manual features now, or don't they?
Is it possible to control the shutter speed with 3rd party apps? What's the resolution and the shutter speed range? Is it actually working or does the system override the manual settings?

You seem to be missing the "More" option. That's where the rest of the settings in the screenshots posted here are.

The fisheye effect at long focal lengths at the edges of pictures appears to have been corrected. Definite colour balance tweaks, spot on now for me.

Through auto update. Tried uninstalled and reinstalled but no luck. Don't really want to format the phone just because of the camera.
