I've been using the stock camera app which is updated on my 6P and I can't figure out how to get it to shoot 4k video. Anyone else have any issues? I made sure that the video is set to shoot 4k but when I do take a video it only shoots in 360p resolution? Not sure what I am doing wrong. I really don't like the google camera app.
I've tried shooting in portrait and landscape mode and changed all the settings around but still can't figure it out.
No issues here. Just tested and set to UHD 4K. It produced a 4K video. Stock Camera.
Hmmm, not sure what I am doing wrong then? Can I ask what settings you are using? thanks!
I'm actually perplexed as to how you manage to shoot in 360p, as the lowest option I have is 720p.

What is reporting 360p resolution? Sounds like YouTube. If so, have you tried changing the quality setting?

> Open stock camera app
> Push the 3 bar menu in the upper left hand corner
> Select 'Settings'
> Select 'Resolution & Quality'
> Video Sub-Header
> Back Camera > Select 'UHD 4K'
That should be all; where are you getting 360p from? Shoot a video and then look at the properties, it should display the H x L pixels, which will tell you the resolution.

How can I get to camera settings? i took video and uploaded it to Youtube and saw that the highest resolution was 420p. This phone advertises 720p quality. I cannot find how to set it to 720p. Has this happened to anyone else?
When you are in the camcorder, the last setting on the right side of the capture screen, change that to HD(30m).
Thank you, I have no idea how I did not see that!
could it be the app converted it if you actually used the hd 30m
Going to try to explain this... When I'm using the stock Camera app, the picture is normal. But when I switch to Camcorder, it seems to be automatically zoomed in quite a bit. And when I try to zoom out, it says that since I'm recording in HD, zoom functions are not available.
This is kind of annoying because now I have to step back probably 5 feet to fill the same frame of when I was taking photos.
Is this normal for everyone else too? Or do I have some weird glitch on my unrooted and pure stock ROM?
Yep, mine does it too (stock rom). It only does that in FullHD resolution. I guess the only use middle part of the sensor to read the data to achieve greater speeds, and thus it's gonna be a hardware limitation.
Who need HD anyway ? The lens hardly catch with it. I record 720x480 and I'm very pleased with teh quality.
Change the video recording resolution in the settings pane to 1280x720 and that should fix your problem.

Yeah I noticed that.
But that doesn't make sense. In photo mode, same resolution as video mode but in video mode it's zoomed in. Like Dr. Sid said, it seems that it uses a smaller section of the image sensor to capture video. Which again doesn't make sense. Weird.
This is definetly a speed optimization - scaling down the whole resolution of camera sensor from 3264*2448 -> 1080p is much more expensive operation than just cropping the central pixels, i assume someone at samsung was VERY lazy to have done the camcorder mode in such a lame way, it's still ok for recording outside scenes but useless for in-room recording.
I find this quite annoying also. At first I was wondering if it is a ROM glitch or something, since some of the people here stated that even in stock ROM it is present also.
I hope there is some kind of patch to this, full HD recording is really awesome and I hate to see the 'zoomed' effect.
Yeah noticed the same thing just last night.. Seems to also affect the camera's ability to focus properly in video capture mode as well... Shame on them, I wish I had noticed this sooner.
Hello,
I recently purchased an AXON 7 and really enjoy using it. I was in the camera app and noticed that the slow motion quality is much worse than it should be. I went to the settings to change the quality, and the option to change the quality was greyed out and stuck at 720p. I've already tried wiping the cache and resetting app settings, and nothing has worked. If anyone could help me fix this issue it would be really appreciated!
There's nothing wrong with your phone. The Axon 7 only shoots slow motion 120 FPS and 240 FPS at 720p. In the normal shooting mode, you can set the video to 60 FPS at 1080p if you want a crisper image but with less room to slow down the footage. Otherwise, that's it.

Thank you for the speedy reply! I would change the options but i can't since the drop down menu doesn't allow me to change it. Is there any other way to fix this issue?
To change the "slow motion" options, you press the fractions on the bottom left of the slow motion screen, i.e. 1/4 or 1/8. These determine how slow the 720p footage goes.
For 1080p 60 FPS, go to the regular video recording accessed by a swipe to the right, or by pressing video, on the main camera page and then press the gear cog on the top left. Then select 1080p 60FPS. You will have to slow it down yourself in a video editor but it is an overall better image.
Hope that helps.
For some reason I cannot unlock image stabilisation mode, it's greyed out and also I have no RAW mode settings either.
Been watching camera video on youtube and the guy has no issues at all.
Anyone else having issues?
My photos are saved to SD card.

Screen shot of your settings?
Turning some things on causes video stabilization to be auto off

I have sorted the RAW mode now, but not the stabilisation mode yet.

Again, screenshot your settings in camera to see what you have set
you probably have tracking AF on, not sure why would this affect video stabilization, especially that personally I would use tracking AF more during still pictures, to follow some fast moving object and would expect AF tracking automatically during video no matter what.
How you get RAW option ? I dont see it in camera setttings
Aahh sorry I found it....resolution screen
In the default camera app when I try to record 60fps at the 1080 I see pink tint in the video recorder but when I use Google camera there is no pink tint, but I don't get 60fps recording option also.
Can anyone suggest me alternative camera app that can do 60fps video recording at 1080 p?
The pink tint occurs on low light and when too close to the subject, using 60fps. If you switch to 30fps this bug is gone, or if you don't get too close to the subject or too low light. Simple as that.
(the bug actually is the infrared not switching off, but Lenovo doesn't want to fix it)
I tired open camera for 60fps recording , but for some reason it says 60 fps not supported on this device
also the recording is grainy and upon zooming its too pixelated

Cant see that myself, if that was the case it would be visible on all settings and plus infrared on the Moto g5 Plus shows as white/purple (fire a TV remote at the camera to see for yourself).
My guess is it is caused by the extra voltage needed by the CCD at high ISO.

If you haven't seen the existing running discussion on the red/pink issue when recording at 1080/60fps then you may want see the following link:
