Nexus 4 camera trigger..

Is there any way to take a photo using the volume keys on the phone?
There seems to be no easy way to take self portraits using the stock camera app.
I don't want that to sound weird but I just want to take pictures of me and the kids and I've suddenly realised how difficult it is to do it with the stock app!
Even a 5 second delayed shutter would be fine..

You do realize there is a front facing camera, don't you?
Try out an app called Camera JB+ Looks just like stock and has what you're asking for.

Lol, yeah I walked right into that one!
I tried the front camera but the quality was not great!
Camera JB+ looks nice but doesn't have HDR or PhotoSphere modes!

Install the cyanogenmod cam. There you have delayed shutter, voice shutter, Hdr and you can take photos by pressing the power button. But it don't have photosphere. There are zips available on xda where you have both cams.

Take macro shots in s4

Im really disappointed on my gs4 camera app samsung has removed the macro feature, really I miss that stuff. In my old gs3 I cn take pretty good macro shots ,is any possibility to fix this prob guys.?

There's no dedicated "Macro" feature, but I've still taken some good shots with the S4. 13MP really helps.

the S4 active the macro function automatically when you try to focus a near subject

S3 has the ability to focus within 2cm but s4 camera blurs In that dis only comes study in 4cm.

Does anyone know of a better camera app?

The camera on this phone gets really blurry with the slightest of movement and sometimes on the Intelligent auto mode it looks as if the photo has been painted or is a cartoon
Is there a better faster camera app or is the camera just bad on this phone?

How to capture clear pictures of the night sky?

Does anyone here know how to capture clear pictures of the stars in the sky? Is it even possible with the S7 Edge?
I'd imagine I would need to keep the shutter open for a long time and have the phone rest on a tripod. The only problem is that I can't figure out how to keep the shutter open long enough. The stock camera app only lets you keep it open for a few seconds.

I've never try it yet, but have you try using the third party camera?

Which 3rd part camera?
I tried it using the pro settings and keeping the shutter open as long as the built in camera app allows but it doesn't let enough light it.
I know I'm asking for a lot considering how small the sensor is and I can get the shots im looking for with a Cannon DSLR and a Samsung NX 500 but I'm just trying to see how I can do with the S7E.

You can try the Lenx app from the play store
