[Q] Best camera app for Defy plus - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am using Motorola Defy plus with CM7. the stock camera app dis not have " touch to shoot option " in it. so I went for Camera 360.
Which is very good app. but there are some difficulties with this app.
--> it runs pretty much all the time in background.
--> whenever I connect to the internet a pop up comes on top of screen asking me to do stuff. which is annoying.
so, Is there a god camera app for defy which has touch to shoot option with it.??any suggestions would be good.
regards,
vic

Hi, I have not installed cm7 in my defy now, but I remembered a good camera called Camera FV-5 lite. This look like a real camera. Obviously the free app have restrictions but maybe you can test it and pay for it if you like. Other great camera and free is cameraICS, but I don't know if run under cm7. Hope help you in any way. ?

[Q] What about the "autofocus" setting on video recording?

Hi guys, that's it. Does anyone find that anoying?
It'll be awesome if some devs could delete that function. Videos keep searching for good focus when it isn't really necessary. Check this video to check what I'm talking about.

Can it be made? I mean, can it be ripped off? it is a kernel thing or functionality, I guess.
Thanks, I'm new to LG, got this phone on monday, version 805.

Supposedly xdabbeb's camera doesn't do that, but I don't have a custom recovery so I haven't flashed it to see if that's the case. I personally use an app called lgCamera (first letter is an L) in the Play Store and it doesn't have the autofocus "breathing" issue. I believe the stock video recorder is set to continuous auto focus, and it there's a way to disable that, then it would work fine. I got the same effect with lgCamera when I set auto focus to continuous.
Thanks I'll try that app and see it by myself. I guess it doesn't have the same features.

CM camera app is stable now, although its output leaves a bit to be desired. The only real bug with it now is low volume when recording video. There is a ported version of the ASUS camera app that gives OK results for photos, but video is not working on that.
I am using this apk. thanks dude!

Does the Google Camera app work/work well?

As far as I can tell, identical to the CM AOSP camera app with just the addition of lens blur function (which kind of works, unlike the depth of field mode on the ported ASUS camera app, which crashes on mine). Both the stock and Google apps produce very grainy results though. The ported ASUS app is better.

Thank you so much! Would you happen to know if the ASUS camera works if I pull the APK and use it in CyanogenMod? My new ASUS Zenfone 2 is scheduled to arrive in the mail tomorrow.

I am using it in Cyanogen, someone ported it to work (you can't just download it from the playstore, you need a ported version). If you search the Cyanogen thread on the Zenfone 2 Original Android Development sub-page, you can find the link for it. They got the flash working, and most of the modes (super res, manual etc) seem to function. But as I said, video recording is broken, and the depth of field mode also crashed for me.

Camera 2.0 Available

It looks like Camera 2.0 is starting to roll out in the What's New app. I had to forcibly refresh mine from the menu to get it to show up. It's now the same UI that we saw in the IFA videos.
Initial impressions:
- It's noticeably faster to load up on a cold boot
- It's loads even faster after the first load
- With the phone off, I can press the camera shutter button and load the app in 1 second
- The UI is more responsive now
- Quality seems a tad bit better in low light but I'll have to take more photos to confirm

I've got it too, so far its fast than before, nice to have a changed UI, will need to take more snaps to confirm on the quality of pics.
Hmm, I had it show up, download and install. Opened the camera and it was the same. Checked the app and it still says 1.0 what the?
Solutions anyone?
You really have to open whatsnew several time to get this to work, but it suddenly updated and boom, xperiance is alot better than before! Nice update!
I can't post an image because I'm a noob (remove space)

Okay found it under what's new, seems to be taking forever to install?
For me the camera is slow like before

Just downloaded and startup time seems blazingly fast compared to the old app and the one on the Z3c. That was from a cold start and using it after I'd been browsing for a few minutes. Will see how it fares across a whole day...
All sorted, love the new UI. My camera launches quick, about half to 1 second from cold and instantly after closing and relaunching.
How do you launch the camera? With button or with icon camera?

Much faster in both cases. With button takes like 1-1.5 seconds. With icon, takes <1 second
Just had a morning walk with my toddler and have been snapping shots as well as checking email, etc.
The camera is much faster - this is the phone I was hoping for!!
I rebooted the phone and open the camera have the same delay that previous versions

What does the camera app look like on your phone?
(The new app has a completely different UI).

That's really odd - how fast is the camera on the second start?
Maybe some other process is slowing the camera down. I disabled the "Photo Analyzer Service" as other XDA users had said it cause camera performance issues on earlier Z phones. The only thing I can suggest is that you try that if you haven't already.
In the second start is faster. Disabling photo analyzer don't fix the problem

I think the camera now is really impressive.
Have to take some low-light shots...
Here are the shots: all 8 Mpx automatic no flash

I see huge improvement to previous Camera app. Number of details increased and when zooming in pictures does not loose on quality
Yes the new camera app is much faster. But i was hopping for a better manual mode too, like raw support. We'll see, maybe with the marshmallow update.
Like shutter speed control, with it the camera would be totaly perfect.

A better camera app?

First day with this fabulous device. Came from Note 7. The only disappointment so far is the camera, especially low light. I'm wondering if it's just the app itself. I downloaded LIGHTROOM and I'm getting better results but has anyone found another camera app that works well?

"A Better Camera" seems to take better quality pictures in low light (just testing it at my desk). It crashes on setting image size in the setting though (but not from the in app menu).
However, it's video function doesn't let you set resolution/rate and such like the built in app.

People seem to like "snap camera" app the most especially on low light. Maybe you can try this.

Camera FV-5
The Best Camera app I use is "Camera FV-5" its only a Camera not a video recorder though, its a professional camera soo yeah
Camera Zoom fx premium
None of these seemed to make a difference for me. Mist be the hardware.

1) As a general point, low light photography is the weak point of the Axon 7 camera
2) You can try open camera. I have had good results. It is a free open source app
One thing i found just by mistake, was if you tap on where you would like to focus in low light conditions it will turn on nightmode and give slightly better picture.
Anyone able to extract the stock camera app?
Can u use Google camera ?

I was not impressed with Snap camera's low light performance. I actually think it's worse than the stock camera app.
Cinema fv-5 for better video
And the app called: 'a better camera' for better pictures

Yes, Google camera works great... Not any improvement in quality, but works great. Not like it did on the Nexus 6P (not able to swipe to change from camera to video, have to use swipe-out menu).
If you have the ZTE camera open, then try to open Google camera (or any other), you'll get an error the camera is in use by another app.

You should be able to extract it from any of the stock system partition images -- either direct from ZTE's files or from DrakenFX TWRP backup versions.

Oh well i had the axón 7 twise for over 2 weeks and its just too much the lack of development so I went back to the 6p got tired of waiting and waiting it's not my game

The default camera app already has the best options for low light. It's just a trade-off between shutter speed and grain. You can use SUPER NIGHT mode or ISO100 mode in manual to get less grain but you have to hold still to avoid blur. SUPER NIGHT seems to make a composite to reduce blur though.
Any sample shots using super night mode?
Zte is not using the CameraApi2 so you won't get the same quality with a 3rd party camera app.
I've personally found that HDR works quite well in low light, sometimes making the shot look brighter than real life. The only annoying part is keeping the phone steady to avoid blur.
Freedcam
Color OS camera
I feel are the best
