Hi, You dont like the focus of s5 ? or you are talking about selective Focus ?? alternate for selecting Object and blur background you can try Google Camera
For Macro Mode you can try Macro Lense from ebay
Hope this Help

Thanks, but I would like another sultion.
Since the problem is not a hardware thingy.
When I try to capture a penny it doesn't stick with the good focus and rest the focus into foggy blurry vision

Can you Post the Image ??
You need to be little Distance from the object.. If you are using Touch to Capture Turn it Off.. Then again try touch and focus the Penny or the object by moving BACK AND FORTH with touching and checking for proper focus.. ma Bad English hope you got the point

X10 stock camera is good... REALLY??

I don't know if its just me. But I find the stock camera app on X10 very hard to use...
It is only nice on a bright sunny day. The shutter lag makes the camera almost unusable under low-light condition or while you're at an indoor space.
Its slow to focus on subject, and even slower for the camera to take a pictureou, leaving you a blurry image because the person has moved...etc.
The camera app that comes with CM roms in my opinion is the best.. photo is instantly taken once you press on shutter. wonder if any devs would be able to port it on to roms based on stock GB?
that is about right for X10....
otherwise, go for DSLR camera.

X10 camera is good enough with the right app.. but definitely not the stock SE one. It has potential to be there.
asking if any devs are able to port cm6 camera on to SE GB rom
In my opinion The GB stock camera it's better than previous CM roms

Sorry to tell you but the stock app is superior than any app on the market. Show me what app from the market allows you to control EV+/-
Dont think thats a useless feature.....its what seperates stock cam from any other app.
Ive given lots of pointers as a photgrapher within these forums how to properly get a great image regardless if your lighting is poor.

-Use touch capture
-Use the modes! If you want to take a quick picture, go to sports mode, so on and so forth
-Use the EV! It makes the pictures come to life
I have not noticed any camera lag between pressing the shutter and getting the shot...are you on Gingebread? The GB update seems to have sped things up a lot.

If you use normal mode for interior without decent lighting, you will see the screen does not respond promptly as you move the camera around different subjects, that's the lag I'm talking about.
Thanks for suggesting sport mode tho..its a lot more responsive. Didn't bothered to try it before.
But what it does really is compensating exposure for the less lag as I've figured...sport mode is unusable without daylight, the image is way too dark.
Yes I'm on GB at the moment, not saying X10 camera is that bad, but it wouldve been so much better if its as fast as the camera included in CM roms

Guys who dont know EV
its that setting by which you can + or - the lighting in the cam. its on the right hand side in a box with +/- sign.
If you learn the camera correctly, you can take some awesome shots. I still have pictures till this day that people are amazed by the quality and clarity of the photos. The X10 can take the shots you want with patience and practice.
It takes better pics than my ATRIX.

GS3 camera

Hey guys after coming from my Nexus which took terrible photos I would like to use the s3 to take some photos of the kids etc. I have bought photo fx previously and am wondering how this compares to the default camera app? What settings do you guys recommend like HDR burst shot etc? Thanks for any advice
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Anyone?
Why don't you try a few settings out and see what works for you? I use hdr mode for landscapes as it takes a while to merge two exposures together and kids don't tend to stay still for too long. Macro works as it should. That's about all I can tell you.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I have tried a lot of different apps for the camera, but stock seems to match or better them all for me. I am no expert but am happy with the results. As stated, hdr is brilliant for still scenes and the colours it produces are exceptional. Don't use for your kids though unless their asleep

only reason why Im not on CM10 is because the stock Samsung camera is that good...almost SLR minus, aperture and shutter adjustment...

[Q] question Android 4.2 Nexus 4 360° panoramas

The new model of google smartphone.
they wirte on the selling page"Amazing Photo Sphere camera you’ll have to see to believe.
The first phone with 360° panoramas.
It’s like no camera you’ve ever seen. Up down and all around you, with Nexus 4 it’s more than panoramic, it’s like you’re actually there."
and can anyone show more about the : 360° panoramas about this phone
Check out some examples on Google+: https://plus.google.com/photos/110023707389740934545/albums/5808606988734372865
The images are only a 360°C sphere when uploaded onto Google+, on all other occasions they're just flat huge panorama-like photo's, made of 20+ photo's stitched together.
Has anyone actually managed a perfect picture using this 360 camera app?
If you check those examples. https://plus.google.com/photos/110023707389740934545/albums/5808606988734372865/5815232959605498370
This one ^ This is the similar to the result I get though mine are much worse. The bits where the parts don't match or doubled up....
When I shot a photoshere, it worked in my mobile but when I shared it to Google+, it was like just a photo, without sphere button on it. How did you do it? , sorry for the dumb question.

It's easy to get perfect if you shoot landscapes. I've got some great ones while hiking/snowshoeing. Close up objects are difficult to get right. There is a thread around here somewhere with tips on how to improve your shots. The tip I remember is to keep the phone in the same place in space and rotate it rather than you to get the shot.

Yes, I completed the shot. It works in Gallery and if I copy it to PC and upload to G+ it works too. Dunno what went wrong with either Gallery or G+ in my mobile that prevented me from doing just that.

To get a perfect shot you need to rotate the phone about the lens, and not your body. Now do you see the problem? It's pretty much impossible to achieve without external devices.

It may have been more clear what he was replying to if he quoted the post but the point is far from nonsense seeing as it's completely true. The only way to achieve a perfect photosphere is to use the camera lens as the centre of the panorama and rotate the device around that point.
I have quite a few perfect 360° shots by rotating myself not the phone.

You can take some very good photo sphere by rotating your body, but they won't be "perfect" because you are using your body as the axis instead of the camera lens. When you view a photo sphere, you are viewing it from the center point of the sphere. If you used your body as the axis, there is going to be small amount of stretching because the photos are taken at a distance from the center point of the sphere.

Are you talking about the mini planet ones or the 360° ones?
Here's one I did rotating my body ad the axis, seems pretty close to perfect I can get.

Camera or camera app

Anyone know of anyway to make the camera on the Nexus 4 better? I think the only thing I don't particularly like about this phone is the camera. Shots are too dark, too much flash, the HDR are always fuzzy. Do any 3rd party apps improve the camera, or are there any mods I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
AW: Camera or camera app
Hdr is fuzzy because you dont hold ur n4 still. You can improve it a bit but you cant really See a difference. just the size of the photo is much bigger of the photo. There is no thirdparty app that takes better photos as the stock app
