Auto focus is more intended for still shots... Canon makes a dslr camera that has a video auto focus feature, and it dont work all that well. Reasoning is auto focus is meant to clarify a shot, a single still shot, it can help in a video but very hard because of constant motion, especially when zooming in digitally.

I have not installed any recovery and to use xcam I need to make a backup nandriod.
I tried 2 other devices and have the same problem.
Are there other alternatives to xcam?

no matter how many cam mods you installs this problem still exists for G2, no solution yet

Video Camera Focus Issue?

When I start off by recording an object that is close the camera obvisouly focus's correctly before recording starts, but if you record a far away object whilst still recording the camera doesnt auto focus as you thought it should. It only seems to focus just before recording starts.
I've upgraded my firmware to 2.73.405.5 from htc website and can't remember if this happend to the previous firmware, can anybody confirm?
Thanks

[Q] Camcoder issues

Ok there have been other issues with it, but I want to talk about the focus issue.
I tried couple of roms with the same camera and the camera focuses just fine before the shot is taken , but once you focus the lenses with the camera the camcoder stays with this focus whether you are focusing(pointing to an object) far or close to you. Is this a problem with the apk or is it the drivers? I havent tried the Desire HD camera because it is different (atleast the looks). Can anyone confirm if the Desire HD roms have this issue?
Strange, you are the second Bulgarian to report a camcoder issue today... I actually have no issues with cam, just took a few pictures and all is ok.
See signiture for Rom

[Q] Working camera ports?

Since i dont like the way Samsung updated slow motion in the camera in lollipop, is there already a working port from other roms? (No root). I believe the quality of slow motion has decreased in lollipop. Is anybody also experiencing this? Let me know.

Yep, they decreased it
In Kitkat, you had the oportunity to record in
1/2 Best Quality
1/4 Mid Quality
1/8 Poor Quality, true Slowmo camera
Now in Lollipop you're forced to record in 1/8 which is the poor quality and set the speed between 1/2-1/4-1/8 when you play it.
I will try the KK apk and see if it's working. Now I have other problems with the Lollipop Rom which I'm planning to fix (haptic feedback bugs)
Nice to know someone else is experiencing the same. Kind of strange noone else already opened a thread about it. Let me know if the KK apk works. Also, i cant understand that Samsung didnt used the full power of the camera (120fps/1080p).

Doesn't work. FC...
You can choose the 1/2 or 1/4 by selecting slow motion in the camera option. In that case, you may not be able to modify the video.

There's no slow motion option in camera settings. Samsung moved it to "MODE" in lollipop, and forced it to 1/8 (low res) which you can edit it to 1/2, 1/4 while playing the video.
Kitkat camera doesn't work. My guess is ART problem (SamsungCamera3.odex.art is missing).

Meizu MX4 video recording continuous AF not working

Stock camera of all version of FlymeOS, on video mode, it only autofocus once, at the beginning of video recording. Continuous AF is not working, the only way to focus is tap to focus. Is there any tweak or hack to enable continuous video AF using stock camera?
Other camera apps like Google Camera, continuous focus works like a charm on video mode so this problem is related to the stock camera I guess. there are several benefits of using the stock camera like 4k recording and slow-mo, but the lack of continuous AF in video recording is killing me.
Someone know how to solve this problem?
I guess it has something to do with 4k video recording, ince it doesnt work with other app, it must be a proprietary software issue. You can tap to focus, and in real life this actually works out better than continuous autofocus because you dont get that weird effect of the device focusing when you dont want it to. It would be nice to have the option to change it though. Meizu will never learn.

weird video camera malfunction ze552kl

If camera directed down and record video,it can`t focus on distant objects. For exemple, if camera directed straight down and focus set on infinity, in reality focus on 0.4m.
It is happened always only during video recording, or with non asus camera apps .Asus camera make photo with no malfunction.
I don`t know when it started, or it was what way at the beginning.
Can somebody confirm, that others ze552kl don`t have such malfunction?
