Could anybody inform me of the changes with camera performance with the new update? (other than auto flash and geotagging)
How fast is it to load and focus? what are the images like?
All reviews i have read are based on the old software, so wondering if those reviews would have been much better if using newer firmware?
Any samples?
Many Thanks.
Here you go.. photos taken in Hamburg yesterday with my X1, smabergs 6.0 ROM with the new Camera and HTC Camera..
Same place, different app:

HTC: http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/240/imag0004f.jpg
I don't know if it's a problem with smabergs ROM, but focusing takes ~1-2s and then after ~8-10s the picture is taken.. terribly slow for me.
A collection from last weekend using the different focus methods.

Doesn't seem to be too slow

these pictures are never taken by the Xperia Camera xD
By the way, I was searching in R3A cam the self-timer / autotimer / automatic release, didn´t find it. Can anybody help, or is this basic function missing?
thanks for the samples, dont look too bad.
But 10 secs to take a photo is really slow! anybody else experiencing this?
after a softreset, speed of the camera is back to normal.. 1-2s
Really 8 - 10 secs to take a shot ???
1- could be the SAT link time
2- could be the flash charge time
I am pleased with the results, it is not a PRO camera: it's a phone with camera and I don't expect PRO pics
IMHO it makes decent (not "brilliant" or "great") shots
I took this one with zero adjustments, just grabed phone from pocket and shot:
If I need better shots, I take my cybershot with me
Hi
I have a problem with my Nexus 4 camera, the pictures taken are quit good (Not best quality - and by this I mean pictures of people, places etc.. not documents) but when I zoom them just a little, Its all blurry (during the shot, or after taking it) which should not be the case for a 8mp camera ( I had Xperia P, pictures with its 8mp camera were OUTSTANDING! ), and the thing that bothers me most, its taking pictures of documents : ALWAYS blurry, never good or lisible to read.
Please help me solve this

No solution. The camera on this phone sucks. Don't bother with zooming; it's pointless. Zooming is digital and merely crops, rather than actually zooming in optically like a "real" camera.
If you're taking pics of still things, use a timer. That way you can initiate the taking of the picture and stabilize yourself, rather than trying to keep your hands steady while also hitting the shutter "button". Or use a voice-activated shutter.
At first on kitkat 4.4.4, I had some good pics with it :/ isnt it a do of software? this is really despressing to know that this camera originally sucks to this level :/ thanks anyway
Greetings guys, ive seen that the camera api 2 is still broken for galaxy s6 in the android m, this can be checked easelly by running any custom camera app like camera fv 5, a better camera or proshot camera.
All of them return blurry pictures with camera api 2, while works flawlessly with old camera api.
Even though im very very happy with the galaxy default camera app finally supporting shutter speed and raw, i was hoping the camera api 2 wouldve been properly implemented in this build which unfortunatelly it wasnt.
So im trying to do get as much data as possible by asking you guys to post your phone model, android version, sensor brand/model and experience with camera api 2:
Ill go first:
Phone: G920F
Android: Android 6.0.1
Camera Sensor: Sony_IMX240 (To check your sensor install this app from google play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.finalwire.aida64&hl=pt_PT)
Testing:
ProShot(Paid) Blurry pictures,
Camera FV5(Paid)=Blurry Camera API2 (Resolution maximum of 8mp) and up to 3200 iso, but normal image quality with old camera api (Resolution maximum of 16mp) but only 800iso,
A Better Camera (Paid) Blurry Camera Api2 but normal image quality with old camera api.
This problem is included in lollipop 5.1.1
I talk with proshot developers for this problem 5 months ago and he hasn t solution

Hi! I'm the dev of ProShot. I'm really stumped on the soft images issue on Samsung phones. If you shoot RAW you will see that correct focus was achieved, but the JPEG doesn't look quite right. Running a simple sharpen filter produces results closer to the stock camera app, but it's not quite 100%.
No other device has this issue, so Samsung is definitely at fault here. And only offering 8MP resolutions in Android M is a pretty bad oversight, they clearly didn't test this update that well :/
Hi all , I have to say that with CameraFV all problems said up are same here - blury detail on jpg photo , 8mpx max resolution for jpgs in MM. But in RAW everything is just right - detail and resolution. Dont know where is problem but think on 90% is base on Samsung's camera driver. Dont know also situation in S7.
A made also comparisson between RAWs in CameraFV and Stock Camera app for Sammy and may say that cameraFV take better detail at all , stock camera app has more noise and detail is more aggressive.
If u want i can upload reaults here to discuss
Cheers !

Thank you for your contribution people, both camera fv5 and proshot are excelent camera apps. I actually love the ability to disable ois in proshot and the very nice ui. It is indeed a shame that samsung didnt pay more attention to fix buggy camera api 2. I really like the stock app in MM it has pretty much everything and im very happy with it but the phone camera couldve been even more perfect than it already is with proper support for custom camera apps :/

Still haven't been able to get the MM update on my S6, but from other reports I hear it still might be there.
I use ProShot and I get blurry shots on my S6 but to be honest some pictures come out awesome, as if shot using a DSLR, and some it's just too soft. It's not the dev's fault, it's Samsung's.
I use ProShot on my LG G4 also and it doesn't have an issue with that. Noise Reduction removal is better in the G4 as well. In the S6 you see some type of weird over sharpening effect.
What I love about ProShot (with low noise reduction) is that it removes Samsung's over sharpening effect and extreme contrast so pictures come out natural.

Here's the interesting thing, when you disable noise reduction on the S6, the pictures are sharp and not blurry.

There is a app called cinema 4k which also uses camera2 api. It didn't work on marshmallow so i had to downgrade to lollipop, after downgrading it worked without any problems

Thats because when you downgraded the camera api 1 was used by the app bu default instead of camera api 2

Latest 3.15.1
I have some issues with RAW capturing on 3.15.1 , on 10 photos only 1 had DNG file ?
Hi!
I'm on stock marshmallow with the august security patch. According the the manual camera test app my phone does not have raw capabilities. What could be causing this? (I can capture raw with the default camera app just fine)
4k issue on galaxy s7 shots 3264x2448 instead of 3840x2160 using Proshot. Please fix this. No 60fps for FHD option as well.
Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Rear Camera
Well for a upper middrange phone not so good. I mean yes you can caught some good images but without OIS you can notice some blur sometimes. Also before using it for first time I recommend to turn off hdr auto and full screen camera because it can effect the image quality.
Front Camera
I must admit that front one is much much better than rear. For group photos or alone you can really capture a great photo. Also selfies sometimes can be too detailed, and that only thing that i don't like. 16 mp plus 8 mp dual one makes a great combination.
Rear camera is bad, nailing focus even in a decently lighted environment is a hit and miss. Don't even dare to expect an S7 quality.
Front camera is one of the best I've seen, specially in video calls.
Rear camera doesn't have portrait mode and pics are not of good quality , Daylight photos are good but not the best ones and low light camera isn't that good as it was shown on the teaser.
front cam is much better than rear cam.
i have been satisfied with the results of the front and rear cam. the front is from another world, but the rear is not the best but of course it is very good as well!!! i have enjoyed it in all conditions.
Please do you have a solution to open the bot for a role in Samsung Galaxy A8 + 2018 sm-a730f.... I don't find the option to open the bot for a role in developer option
By installing the google camera mod the rear camera is just freakin awesome (including portrait mode). The stock camera is awesome only with the front camera.
Rear camera set 10 megapixel 18.5:9 . Very good photos!

Disable hdr+ on front camera
Pro mode is very limited compared to the Galaxy S7/S8 stock camera app, we can't control exposure time. Is there a way to enable that feature? I think this phone has all what it takes to do the same.
What about picture resolution? I have a 3456x2592 vs 4608x3456 on stock camera. How can I fix it?
the first one is the A8
the next one is the s7 active... I may have fuged the lighting settings on that shot.
my s7active camera is starting to crap out... I think some moisture got in the camera cause I have to wipe it a lot...
honestly.. I've noticed great improvements on the a8... still alittle jumpy taking photos
Thank your review Đánh giá Samsung Galaxy A8 2018: Đến gần phân khúc cao cấp
I Tried the OnePlus camera ,HTC camera & MiUi Camera but still can't take slow-motion video.
Video captured with 1+ camera was just 30fps
there was no option in MIUi camera & The icons on HTC camera were not understandable (couldn't find a better work to explain that) like they didn't support the device which it doesn't ?
Update- Even Nokia's Camera application's Slow-motion isn't working.
