How's the camera of dopod838/HTC TyTN

I am currently an owner of o2 atom , those who've used it will know whY i am so skeptic , the camera of o2 atom is the WORST i've seen in my entire life , hell my o2 IIs was million times better with it's 1.3 mega pixel camera
Users of dopod838/HTC TyTN can you pls temll me , how's the picture quality , and how's the VIDEO quality , can we take a normal video with normal frame rate ? or will it lag like I am using a pathetic webcam

For a phone/pda/taoster device it has a decent camera. Here are a few pics I took in chicago while moving...in a truck, and I think they came out pretty good.

thanx nick , very decent picture, could you also tell me how's the video quality , is the video good , or does it skips ?

photo and video quality are good in outdoor / good lighting conditions (photos are not as good as but close to k750 quality, video is better) but at night and in dark places they are terrible.

Because the TyTN has onboard MPEG-4 hardware compression, the video comes out very smooth without any skipped frames. However, the compresion makes the video look kind of weird sometimes. Basically it looks as if you are looking up at the video from the bottom of a pool or something, with the image swimming around and looking very liquid. It's worse if you rotate the camera a bit while panning left-right.

@darky , at night I ain't expecting anything both in the photo mode and the video mode .
@rassah , will it be asking you too much to upload a small video if feasible , cause I cannot visualize the 'liquid' effect of yours ,though I am happy of to know atleast i doesn't skip
and o yes thanx u again

set contrast and sharpness to 1
as for video the coolcamera software ver 1.15b (third party) can record in avi which greatly improves the quality.

I've heard a lot about this cool camera software , affects that much ?

Awful camera quality

Do you guys experience the same ? Pictures are not sharp, colors are mixed up.

only in darker rooms. outside with sun pictures are looking quite well.
look here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/29/htc-trophy-review/

Horrible quality.
As usual with HTC... always these "orange-pink blurry" images.
Nothing compared to the great Omnia 7 camera unfortunately.

Quality is indeed very bad:
Here's a picture taken with my Trophy:

You can cleary see the pink/orange circle in the middle.

I hope they put a better camera in this when it comes across the pond to the us. I don't care about mp I want better quality

Yeah camera quality is quite awful. subpar when outside and when inside it's just horrible.
On another note are any of you noticing the 'GSM radio' sounds on video files you've recorded with the device?

i was in quite cloudy conditions and photos still looked good. i think it's just night shots or dark places that it falls over.

Too much noise. They are OK for a low budget phone, but I don't think that the Trophy is low budget (at least I payed more than 200€!)
Thanks for sharing

I'am having the same issue, only outside with clear weather it makes nice pictures. Also the flashlight is horrible, if you try to make a picture of a person it will always look away from the camera

I'm thinking of getting a trophy but I'm really put off by this pinky orange circle issue - does everybody experience this? Is it a hardware issue or could it be fixed by a future update?
Cheers

I have the red colorisation in the centre of the image also, not too fussed as I never use the phone to take pictures I use my Canon D450, if its that important that you need to use the camera for images then you can fix them images in Lightroom.

I got my HTC 7 trophy (australian stock) and think the camera is outstanding. Definitely the best non-iPhone camera phone I've used. Don't understand what all the fuss is about, really.

I have one and the camera is like my old htc p3600 in outsides when I use the flash the quality of the photo is bad with too much noise and blur.
I hope it is a software poblem and MS correct that in a future version!

camera image quality very low !!!!

i had the device for 2 weeks and i noticed that the images quality are not good and when zooming it becomes so blured and not acceptable ...... any options or solution to this problem ??

One back up data and factory reset .
No cure = return to seller .
jje

well, how far are you zooming in? It's a "digital zoom" which is a phrase I hate. It doesn't really zoom in, it just crops the picture then enlarges it.

digital zoom is probably the most useless thing ever on cameras
here's just an example of what it's like

let's say we zoom in on his face using digital zoom
it will take just this little portion
and blow it up

great answer viper98
Unfortunatelly most people don't know the diference between optical and digital zooms...
xdafun4all, if you really want to use zoom without sacrificing quality, the best bet, is aproaching the subject you want on the picture, Using the zoom from the Galaxy S2, Iphone, Pixon, N8, or from any other phone (you name it, i doubt there hare phones out there that have optical zoom built in) will not make miracles...

+ Infinite to this.
Digital Zoom = BOGUS.

Yeah even most "high end" point and shoot cameras have **** zooms, even on my 7d I gotta watch for camera shake whilst zooming lol... Tho that's a different story.

Touch the part of the image you need focus once for better focus and then take the picture without altering the position or the zoom.

Also just in case, check cameras settings, make sure you don't have focus set to macro.
This will most diffidently give you blurry pictures unless they are extreme close ups...
Hope this helps.

As said many times in this thread's 9 posts,digital zoom is pure bull****.Take the photo unzoomed and crop the part you want zoomed on your PC.It's the exact same thing.
The only camera that never gave me problems with digital zooming is my Nikon D7000.It was for testing purposes,there is no point in digital zooming with a DSLR but anyway.That thing costs about 1250 euros and takes photos at 16.6mpx,but that's another story.

Misaligned Camera

Hi, the inside camera in my new S6 Edge+ from UAE (G928C) is misaligned Well it looks like it. I have attached a picture for your opinions. Is this a defect? So far after taking 3 or 4 pictures the quality is good as expected.

Mine is the same. Probably isnt supposed to be that way. Minor cosmetic issue. No,way effects functionality.

Yup. Same here.

Same here. Maybe its intentional? Either way my pics come out great so no worries....

we all have that. relax

The camera has hardware image stabilization in such the lens is supposed to be free moving. If you shake the phone you can hear it rattle. Start the camera app again and shake it, rattle is gone. This is due to a floating design that can move the lens to counter your movement so motion blur is reduced and is especially noticeable in lower light conditions when shutter speeds grow longer.

You are absolutely right. One can try shaking the camera in selfi posture and notice that camera hole alignment changes with phone positioning.

Camera setting - Enable video stabilization

Hi guys,
Does your Nexus 6P have an option to enable video stabilization on camera setting?
My friend has the option on his Nexus 6p but mine hasn't. We got exactly same model.

screenshot or it didn't happen

Mine has it. Did you get the latest update that just came? It may have been in there.

Does it actually make a difference in practice?

Honestly... no clue. I got the device today as I was on my way to work. I barely had a chance to play with it (read: I screwed up the unlocking/rooting process so left it at home) but definitely noticed the stabilization option wasn't there today.

I don't think so.

When I enabled video stabilization, I noticed the screen's FOV being reduced. Is it just using Youtube's stabilization method of taking a smaller rectangle out of the full frame and shifting it around? If it's using that method, I might as well turn it off and let Youtube handle it if needed, while still having the full-sized video.
Edit: Like in this comparison video of the 5X and 6P, you'll notice the 6P side is slightly zoomed in. youtu.be/HV4rcFuUlUc?t=240

Nothing here yet.

My phone also does not have the option under camera. My Marshmallow is also up to date.

I have it.

nexus 6p has digital IS. It does have image stabilization.

It looks like the quality really suffers when the stabilization is on. You can clearly see that it is less bouncy but it also has weird jello effect.
Does anyone know why some phones have this feature and some dont?
I don't have the option and my phone says that there are no software updates available.

I have it!

I got my 6P today and don't have it
