Hello there Xperia SP Users,
Now we all know that we are having a disappointing camera, maybe its only the software,
Here are some tips to drastically improve image quality,
1.) Update Your Firmware/Software to latest version.
2.) Please Turn off Mobile Bravia Engine (It just increases saturation and contrast while viewing pictures in Gallery/Album App which also increases the noise)
3.) While using camera set options as follows,
Scene Mode : Normal
Resolution : As your preference, 8MP/7MP or 5MP
Flash : Off (Turn it off for except very very low light)
Self-Timer : Off
Focus Mode : Touch
While Balance : Daylight (Gives pictures a slight warm effect)
HDR : On or Off
ISO : 100 or 200 (100 is recommended)
Exposure : +2.0 if ISO - 100 +1.0 if ISO - 200
Metering : Spot
Image Stabilizer : Off
4.) Take your pictures using these settings.
5.) You might notice that you need to change ISO or Exposure Settings after clicking every pic, do it.
6.) Pictures will be much better than before.
7.) Final Touches - if you use Aviary(Image Editing App) , Edit Picture > Enhance > Balance
You will find that the picture looks rich and enhanced, please note this balance effect will only look
good if you've used "Daylight" as White Balance while capturing the picture.
8.) Further in Aviary you can decrease the sharpness to one to two stages (reduces noise details).
I hope Sony improves the camera in next updates (Android 4.3 or next firmware update)
Please leave your comments below or post your before and after pictures. :highfive:
Yeah, but the low ISO implies in low light reaching the sensor, that's results in lag and delay to take shot. The high exposure makes the white too bright and overexposed.
Am I wrong?
I'm in CM 10.1, and you can adjust the shutter speed, it makes a lot difference and improves photos.
I've uploaded two images; Auto means all settings are in automatic; custom means I adjusted the parametters. Check it out.
I just use another Camera app. Galaxy S4 Google Edition one to be exact. Works perfect

Have anyone try Camera FV-5? just give it a try to shoot in low light condition with long exposure and see the result.
In long exposure mode, camera FV-5 force the iso still in 50 but still give the bright picture with less noise
i tried many options in the stock camera and tried many camera apps but the one which give me best pictures is Procapture
If you want best results out of the hardware provided...head over to this link

How can j5's 2016 13 mpx camera be so bad and how it can be improved?
The colors and vibrance look good only on the phone, when you watch them on pc they look pale with no vibrance and sharpness at all, even on photos took in full daylight, low light/night shots are a joke, everything is a huge pixel..
What can do?

Phone is phone and its camera is made to take and share pictures.
Want better pictures quality? Then buy a professional camera.
It is my opinion.
not looking for professional level photo quality, just decent quality, because I really think the quality this 13 mpx camera gives its far from decent.
On another note, how can J7 2016 have better picture quality than J5 2016 having the same exact camera hardware? is it via software? I am looking for THAT software!
Here are some photos I took with my J5 2016

For me, the quality of pics you posted is ok I haven't used other phones/camera though.
Hey guys ,
We all know samsung outdone itself by creating a masterpiece in rear cam photography with s7 edge , its actually better than any camera in market if considered overall result.
But somehow i found that its video performance is not that good or may be its just my device.
I got samsung made sensor.
While recording in 4k , zooming in and out has obvious stutter and frame rate drop as well as when u move focus it stutters n give bad feel overall to video
When using at 60fpd , focus problem and at 1080p when shooting closely it gives waxy feel of object far from their natural form.
When compared it to my s6 edge , results were surprising , s6 edge produced better videos , nonstutter when shooting at 4k , no zoom in n out problem no problem when moving focus , Even 1080p at 60fps give better results (some advantage of larger sensor is there but still s7 takes more time to save 4k video too and video quality is not comparable to s6 edge , although its vice versa when taking still photos.
Anyone else with similar case??
I would love to have camera with mods that increase the quality of pics and videos. Using Tmobile version.

Thanks but those are just ports. Not Mods that increase the quality of vids and pictures with higher bitrates etc.

That's the kind of mod i'm talking about.
