Well, this is what I about expected from a Moto camera. I have seen in the right conditions and lighting pretty good shots with it, but as a 2 phone guy, this is why I will be carrying my Nokia 928 with me for photos and Moto for ecosystem and Google services. I heard most of these inadequacies can be improved upon with SW updates. We will see.

Gotta love the Lumia cameras. Gosh I miss my 920. It was so easy to take nice shots with that phone and every phone I've had since hasn't even come close.
The camera on this and the new droids quite honestly sucks. I don't think anyone is surprised, but you would think if they were going for an "iphone" like market, they would have put a little more emphasis on the shooter. the artifacts in low light pics are plain awful:crying:
Was seriously considering this to move from the N4, but not anymore. Every single review that has posted pics just don't look good at all.
I love moto, just wish they would step their camera game up a notch and not just throw around terms like clearpixel...it clearly doesn't help.
I am interested in seeing real world shots that ppl get with it though---sometimes they differ from the review photos.
Happy Shooting Moto X folks

Well if you were planning to get the MotoX mainly for its camera, then you obviously will be disappointed. It's not leading edge right from the start, but a simple software update to tweak how it adjusts and balances the light can easily improve the quality a bit. I always view cellphone cams as means to create passable photos.

They still look better than the N4's pics, at least I think so.

Yeah I'm not looking for a DSLR, but at least match the quality of the current flagships. They are a couple Gens behind with this cam (or so it appears). The S3 took better pics. My N4 is in the same boat...crappy cam, I've been looking for that vanilla phone with a good cam...Doesn't look like its gonna happen, might have to go back to the old root n rom method.
The Sony Honami could change that though.
Anyhow, still want to see the real world pics from the X...couple more days til we get a few samples.

Just got an email from them saying the shipping has been delayed does this happen to you as well?
Resized, but otherwise unretouched shot from my Moto X. This is just a shot from my office window - no artistic merit!
any comparative shots out yet? vs htc1, s4 and nexus4?

Here's a quick comparison shot between the MotoX & Samsung Galaxy S4. These shots were taken about 30 seconds apart and have no post processing done other than resizing each to a width of 640 pixels. The one on the left is from the Moto X and the one on the right is from the Galaxy S4.
I haven't tested the Moto X in low light or any challenging conditions.
Initial thoughts:
- The one from the GS4 os a much more accurate colour rendition of the actual scene.
- The one from the Moto X has a purplish cast to the picture (see the colour of the sky).
- There is a lot more detail in the picture taken by the GS4.

Exactly..Like I said...this camera is generations behind the current top shooters. Its a shame, and there's really no excuse other than being ignorant and disconnected from what customers want. They even hyped the camera with this ClearPixel nonsense - please dont hype a horrible camera. I would have DEF bought this phone had it contained a good camera.
BAH
Eager to see some more shots, but they could have done WAAY better with this.

There are issues but I'm not sure whether they are due to the sensor or the processing done on the resultant image. The former would be a huge issue, while the latter is something that could be addressed via a software update.

wow, S4 makes the X look like a joke.
Ok, not sure if this is a software problem or hardware, the fact is that when taking a photo in a dark room with the flash, it comes out way too white, as if reflecting light, the process focus with flash and photo capture is too fast, so the flash intensity is not measured in and out very white photos ...
I'm not sure if this problem arose after the upgrade to 4.4.4 tmo, but I do not remember this happening in android 4.4.2
Here are some examples:
The first photo was taken with Moto X, the second with a Galaxy S3, all others with Moto X.

Turning on HDR mode helps. I just leave it on all the time.

Repository of pictures taken by your Moto X and discussion about Moto X camera.
Taken from a Cessna 172 along the coast of Daytona Beach, FL. I think it triggered the Auto HDR. Never had a camera that did that so don't know if it's a good picture haha.

No filters or editing. Both taken with stock Moto Camera without adjusting any settings.
Edit: I just noticed the quality of the uploaded image is way worse than the original. Is there a way of uploading without compromising the quality?

Imgur is VERY popular for internet img posting.
Pic taken with new lollipop 5.0 update on Moto X 2014. Much better than kit kat without flash or editing.

I'm VERY familiar with imgur... Maybe too familiar. But the quality is still compromised when uploaded there.
Unless someone knows a way to upload the image without losing quality, this type of thread is ultimately just a good place to share cool photos.

No filters/adjustments. Hdr auto

I really don't think this camera is bad, yes it has issues finding focus in dark light, but all contrast based focusing systems are bad.
I've had 500 dollar compact cameras with more issues finding focus.
For the Moto X Pure, no matter what app I use, even though still pictures and videos are relatively focused and clear, when I do photosphere or panorama, the images are extremely blurry. The camera appears to drop focus from the moment the photosphere/panorama is selected, and the images come out looking like they were taking with a 320x240 camera blurred to smooth out the artifacts, when viewed at full resolution. Example attached.
It appears to be a focus issue because when I move the camera to a new capture-dot, it immediately captures a new image rather than how it was on the Nexus 5, which focused first, and then took the picture. In any case, it looks "ok" as a thumbnail sized image, but at anywhere close to full resolution, it's unusable.
This has been this way since I bought the phone, and normally I'd think it was a defect. But looking online at samples, it seemed like this was just how the Moto X Pure "worked." Yet, coming from a Nexus 5, that actually creates full resolution photospheres/panorama that are in-focus, it's really frustrating.
Has there ever been a fix for this? Or is it that my camera really has been defective this whole time, even though it works for non-photosphere/panorama images?
I'm sorry to bump, just wondering if anyone has any response to this - I've been looking for a solution since I got this phone, so any input would be great.
Just a note, I had this same problem on an LG G2. When I was running stock (5.0) google camera worked fine, but when I switched to an AOSP/CM rom (12/12.1/13) then the stitching settings would never focus before snapping (just picked some arbitrary focal point and stuck to it, instead of refocusing for every snap).
I get this on stock 6.0, 6.0.1 and CM/AOSP roms on my XT1575 - same exact problem, and same empty searches on the internet.
Nothing useful to add, just that I'm facing the exact same problem. It does not seem like it would be too difficult to fix. I'm disappointed that no one seems to care about it.
same here, really bums me out that the focus isnt good on panorama's or photo spheres!
The image captured through the front camera are mirrored and saved into Google photos app in my Moto G4 plus mobile. Same is not the case when we capture a selfie using Samsung A8's front cam.
I tried to find the settings but all my efforts went in vain, there is no post mentioned for this type of issue.
Kindly let me know if someone has any solution.
They are not mirrored, you are the one that expect them to look like when you look in the mirror. Other people see you as the pic shows.
The camera app shows a mirror image before taking the pic, just to appease the people who use the phone as a mirror.
You can mirror the pic in the pic editor.
I agree with you, while capturing the selfies it shows us the mirror image and it is same in all mobiles.
But while saving it doesn't save as a mirror image in many mobiles such as Moto X , Samsung A8 (I have tested in these mobiles). After capturing, the proper image is saved automatically but in my Moto G4 plus it saving the mirror image itself.
