Hi Guys,
I am guessing the HD2 doesn't come with video recording (strange for a top smartphone as this) but is there any chance of a software solution coming in the future that might support this feature?
cheers,

Why do you guess this....Are you talking about 3g video calls, then no..
I`m sure you`ll be able to take videos though...
aren't there videos taken with HD2 floating around in youtube?
Yes there are. And yes, HD2 has video recording. The "guesses" come from the official spec sheet where video recording isn't mentioned I think.
seriously, there's a thread on the front page about video playback...

And how exactly is that relevant to the subject of video recording?
I hope you guys are right! video recording would make me very happy!

I think you're confused by the Iphone - until recently it didn't support video recording - as far as I know, winmo has always had that when a camera is installed?
but just to set this straight, what do you mean with video recording?
start the camera and record a video and save to memory card or something else?

Because almost every phones (except apple) imaginable in the last 5 years have had video recording? A cheap $25 samsung slider has video recording, so what makes you think a high-end $800-900 phone doesnt come with one? That's like asking if a new Ferrari 458 will be expensive...

Not to sound like a troll, but as a genuine comment knowing people who had the iPhone as their first "proper" smartphone, they've been genuinely surprised that pretty much every other camera-containing smartphone ever made has video recording and mms (copy and paste/multitasking/etc less so).
Just wanted to say that some people have to cut the attitude, I was only asking a question! and the reason I thought it didn't come with video recording is because a preview said as much and I thought it was strange. This will be my first smartphone so give me a break!

No, there aren't. It's only one video and looks very bad. I guess the camera is craptastic
There is one video sample here. It's not as bad as some, but it's no dedicated video camera.

thx

I think... yeah its possible, but no 720p quality
Its is possible , but you should be happy with what you already got , a working camera,
All the other Windows phones that got android dont got working camera's

^^^ very good point.
Plus I would imagine that utilising a 720p resolution is goig to have a major impact on the already mediocre framerate.
IMO theres not much point having 720p recording if its going to be at 5fps.
Hopefully im wrong and it will be silky smooth at 720p
Well on robsbay.co.uk it has said for a while now that 720p is defiantly working but isn't in any builds yet.
I'm not sure if he actually means defiantly or definitely...
X2 on 720 not being worth it. High resolution video through a crummy lens is just a bad idea. Giant crappy video is still crappy video. Pick up a Kodak Zi8 if you want HD video on the cheap.

I disagree... yes, the quality will always be worse than a real video camera but the same applies to still images. DSLRs are head and shoulders above the best camera phone, so would you say camera phones might as well have stayed at VGA resolution instead of 5 or 8 MP common these days?
Unless there are framerate issues I'd love HD video capture. Some phones it's not so great, but some are pretty impressive given everything (the Samsung Galaxy S seem to do pretty crisp 720p).

thx for all the answers guys, and yes after what ive read all over the internet the hd2 could be getting 720p camcorder and a pretty good one if the framerate is enough/sorted

Whichever way you look at it I was the first to answer the OP and it was done in a friendly manner.
Since then, you and the other muppet have flamed me with useless posts while not even mentioning the OP.
Again, I'm brought back to my comments about irony and idiots
Both of you better chillax or i'm gonna be sending people home walking.
Keep the flaming down please!. !
So any news for 720p on Android? WP7 can do it, so it's possible.
Any progress?
We need that for Android
Hi all, just made some videos with my SGS2 and edited them on Windows Movie Maker.
I'll be happy to hear about your opinion, particularly in terms of light, do you have some trick to make better videos?
ROM is Batista70 FoxHound 2.4 with Camera Hack installed, so if you have a better one related on video making, you're welcome!
Thank you so much!
These are really good... hard to believe its just from a phone..
Excellent
Just put a powerful magnifying glass on the camera and you'll get much closer
a like to camera Hack PLS
and can it be installed on a stock rooted rom ?

Just wondering how could you steady your phone while capturing?Do you have any camera stands or anything?
yes, the phone is on a tripod

I'll start with a quick video test:
Good Quality thanks for sharing!

Very nice quality.

That's why you have tap to focus so you can tell the thing what you want it to focus on. It's really simple, you want it to focus on something in the video just tap on it on the screen and woah! It will remain focused on it.
WTF??? Watch carefully after 45s.

From a game I attended yesterday:
You do have to be slow with panning, zooming is fiddly can produce bad results.

Resolution 1920x1080, anti-shake on, video quality superfine, the rest were set to default.
I can record and play back in 1080 on the phone, but I cant seem to play back the files on the computer without the image breaking up into a blocky mess. I'm using VLC to play them. Has anybody else come across this issue? 720 is fine. I thought it was the sd card, but even recording to the phone gets the same issue. Weird.
Well,
I see most annoying problem from SGS2 known as Video Stutter or frame drop issue has migrated to SGS3: http://mobile-review.com/review/imag...hoto/video.mp4
"Frame drop issue" printscreen from mediafire (min:13, max:39), but should be within range of 26-35.
PS: Exchanged mine SGS2 6 times, until got proper one camera module.
Galaxy Nexus records way better 1080p.

Anyone who has a oneplus 5 what's the camera quality on snapchat. I know it's going to be way worse than camera app like any other android but is it decent? Because it has eis and not ois does that effect snapchat quality? Is it really shaky?
Video Quality is really bad on snapchat. A real disaster

Can you explain how its a disaster? Like blurry pics etc
I will try tomorrow
Well, the pictures are good quality...but dont try to make a video with a lot of background noise... Also the videoquality is really blurry
So is it always going to suck on Snapchat?
hello, i was just wondering if anyone can provide snapchat quality samples
Like its always going to take ages to focus etc. But when moving its there a lot of blur etc

Tell us!
Maybe take a couple videos and save them then upload them somewhere and send us a link.
I think snapchat just needs to fix their Android app. It's giving Android users a bad name man.

Your right. Snapchats app on android is horrible. The most powerful android phone runs Snapchat like an iPhone 5s.

Straight from snapchat
I really haven't had a lot of problems with snapchat. It's a pretty basic camera obviously. No crazy blurry pics but you do need to keep it pretty steady. Unless you came from a phone with OIS before, and I know some of you guys did, and for you guys, it might be a bit of an adjustment, but it seems fine to me. It's nowhere near a terrible experience.

Thanks. Looks normal I guess, which is good.
Also I'm guessing there's no eis right? Apparently with some phones and ois. Ois only works in the normal camera app and not Snapchat.

Uh if there is OIS then it should work with any camera because it move always.

Thanks for uploading and the images look amazing but the video looks OK (bad) this could all be fixed through software update from Snapchat team for full support of the camera and not screen capture.
Depend of people standards I guess
but I don't find the video quality on snapchat that bad
If you want to take good videos buy a f**king GoPro or a camera

It's more for video stabilisation. As EIS in the camera works perfectly, what abt Snapchat?
