why a disappointment???

Its got a lot of lag.
Boot up is slow, picture taking is slow.
Maybe I'm not doing something correct but the texted pics were a waste of time.
Havent tried emailing a video or picture yet, couldnt get a video to text.

Definitely
Just took this for giggles. This is the Desire camera app, w/cyan 5.0.5.3 ROM. Everything was set on auto. Image was resized down 50% using PS.
For some more giggles, took this picture about 45 seconds later on my Nikon D80 SLR for some reference. Image was again resized with PS, to a similar size.
you will be selling your dslr then

Sample photo shot using Paul Desire Camera Mod in Nexus One
I wonder if my nexus on stock rom is just as good as pics here?
Taken last Friday, March 26th, 2010 in Honolulu, HI next to Sheraton Waikiki. Click on picture to view original JPEG.
ROM: CyanogenMod 5.0.4.1
White Balance: Forced to "Daylight"
GPS Geotagged: +21° 16' 36.68", -157° 49' 48.56"
Cheers,

oh my God
these pics are gorgeous
Yeah. I don't have it loaded yet, but the Paul Desire Camera Mod is amazing and shows what the hardware is actually capable of.
Granted, it's not going to turn your N1 into a DSLR camera... But still

Record using the front facing camara

Now, I have the Tab and I couldn't help but notice the default camera program only lets you take pics with the front facing camera and not record video with it. So I was wondering if their was like an app for this or some tinkering with the software and what that could be done to get this working?
I think you can do that with the Qik video chat program, but I haven't really tinkered around with it

Trust me I've tried. Every time I hit record it freezes up. I mean first a green screen then complete freeze.
Ya, I actually tried right after posting that's exactly what happened to me. Bahh Humbug.

Yea, it sucks. I mean I don't understand. I mean in theory the Tab's FFC should be able to record video, but this is not the case at all.
I tried the Qik app and it is working for me for front-facing recording. I had the T-Mo version when I first got my Tab that sometimes froze, but went to the Qik site and got an update that worked much better. Haven't had any problems with it yet.

What update?

guess i got lucky, because no problems here with EB13

I updated my completely stock epic through the samsung site, and all is well with my phone. I'm not getting force closes, force closes when using action shot in camera mode. Pretty much my phone is flying. Maybe I got lucky?
can you record a video on low light and link us??
Awesome name Javier... That's my name too lol.
I'm updated my wife and my phone to EB13. Yesterday the camera was working flawless, even under low light. Not the same story today... It's extremely blurry as everyone else is reporting. FC on sports mode as well. Both phones did this.
Yeah.I want to see the video as well to please since you are.the only one who got the.perfect update. Oh and your title says no.problems but you.list.one in the op.

I don't get any force closes. I think u read that wrong.
EB13 works fine for me too besides the known TWS bug, and the camera blur.
its not the action shot its the sport mode on the single shot that force closes , and it will lock your phone up give it a try.

For everybody who is disapointed with the galaxy note's camera

The coding in the stock camera app seems to be a bit screwed up, it makes the camera tend not to focus well and seems a bit unclear most of the time. In that case use this:
https://market.android.com/details?id=vStudio.Android.Camera360&hl=en
If you have no interest in filters, there is an original version of every photo taken.
The one problem that may annoy you is the improper scaling. The photo's are worth it though, Here are some samples.
http://dagogo.picturepush.com/album/183838/p-Galaxy-note-test-(at-a-party).html
click on the pictures so it opens in a new window and then click "full" resolution!!!
Has a nice tilt-shift feature for enhancing depth.
Are you kidding
What are you thinking! Shot this this morning, no disappointment here! Must be something wrong with your camera.
Camera 360 is now free? I cant find Camera 360 Pro and Ultimate in the market anymore..

Apparently non US customers got screwed over like me, as Amazon bought exclusive rights to sell the Ultimate version in their appstore. Can't find it in market anymore. And my Titanium restore from Desire doesn't work either...
I don't like paying for nothing that much, to be honest.

I just checked, there should be a camera 360 free version, it still has some pretty cool filters. Its what I used in the photos in the link (if anyone is looking at them!!)

A lot of users paid for the Ultimate version and it is no surprise are far from happy in how the developer sold out to Amazon leaving it's paid supporters out in the cold.
For that reason they will not support the developer again, paid or free.
I just downloaded and installed camera 360 free version.
Works just fine....Ithink I'll still keep my Canon T2i however...lol
LAT
My camera works flawlessly.
After playing a bit with the Camera Settings may be I am getting somewhere Took it today:
I'm curious if anyone else noticed that the pictures after taken are not as bright as when seen through camera...
or am i the only one?
i downlaoded 360 for free as well. . .works great ..
camera is great in the day but i am finding it takes poor night pictures. .
Does this app scale (fill) the entire screen for everyone? I have a massive black border around it?

yes that is true,looks like the pictures are optimized for the Amoled screen,they look vert paled on PC in comparison.
besides the Flash timing is not very accurate either on my unit.

Glad to hear... playing with settings..will see if I can get actual exposure and colors
BTW..Tried 360...Its interesting..But improper scaling is a bit annoying..
My camera is working great
And this is already a crop of the original...
I am trying the latest version, Camera 360 v3.0.0.
http://cdn.market.hiapk.com/data/upload//2011/12_20/vStudio.Android.Camera360_191822.apk
Got it from their developer website. This is great.
Edit:
I tried: It is on Beta - not working at the moment as it ask you to download other version. Do not install the above app.

Hmm... that's interesting..if ever there is a version 3.0, then why isn't it available directly in the market?

Phone created animated video all by itself, now I can't replicate it.. Any tips..?

So I have quite a few videos and pictures from a recent trip to Aruba and after I inserted the SD card into my phone, about 15 minutes later I had a notification in the dropdown menu that was a video my phone somehow created all by itself and now I can't seem to replicate it to show it to my fiance lol..
Anyone have any idea why my phone did that and how else do I find that video it made, because I can't locate it anywhere..
Thank you!
Do you have Google Photos installed? That's the app that tends to edit photos and make videos on it's own for me. Made a video from a series of photos I took of the kids at halloween.

Dude you rock!!! That was exactly it..!! I kept looking in Gallery and didn't see it anywhere and my fiance was looking at me like I was crazy and making up a story about this awesome little movie with music and everything lol.. Google Photos def hooked me up and I didn't even ask for it haha..
Thanks again!
Yes, it likes to proactively edit photos on you, you'll get a message totally at random about how made a photo better.

Haha that's awesome..! Luckily I was alone while I just got this figured out because Google magically produced two pics of a nice booty I used to know a few years back that somehow ended up in my google photos lmao.. It said the year so I'd have been safe, but still not a battle I was ready to partake in haha..
