Lu6200's picture is better than P880's.
P880 unable to focus,the focusing blur.

upgrade to 10F maybe it help with the focus

Not a big fan of the camera neither, I can't figure out how to take clear pics. Many pics isn't sharp.
I have 3 different camera apps and none of them is good on inside photo..
I have the original app, camera zoom fx and lgcamera, where lgcamera is the worst. Only on auto focus the camera actually focus (original). Still I get pics that isn't sharp.
I'm on 10f... For me it seems like it got worse after the latest update...

i have lgcamera pro and the free version, images are hits and misses (sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad). im using camera360 and camera zoom fx as well.
have you tried changing the focus mode to fixed, or other modes?

I start to think that the only good camera that LG had, was the Viewty I, Viewty II its not bad too... Instead of learn... they do worst.

Yes..
In the original camera app there's only auto and face reckoning...
In camera zoom fx it won't focus in fixed mode, macro and infinity just taking the pic with ones. Lgcamera is the same and camera360 focused a bit (macro)..

Well, o2x takes better pics, even my transformer prime takes better photos.. but besides that, I love the phone!

I don't think it's bad and I don't really have any problems with focusing. I just touch the screen where i want to focus and when it is focused I press the the shutter button (or volume button).
I also had the N8 (well 3 actually) and woow I liked that camera, though I had problems with the screen, pink tint and things like that. After the third phone I took the money back. It would have been very nice if the N8 was an android phone.

I love it too,i hope the next version will better than now:laugh::laugh:

I recommend u to use Camera ICS+, I purchased it and it works perfect for me. You may try the free version, which is Camera ICS, it is actually the google stock camera with some mods, but I personally think it is even better than the stock LG camera app, hope u enjoy it.:good:

I use lgCamera, both free and pro version can provide better pictures with ISO and focus control, but sometimes it cannot save picture properly (resulted in picture without thumbnail)

It is changeable. Current duration is set at 3 seconds. How long do you want it to be?
Code: .field public static final RELEASE_TOUCH_AF_DURATION:I = 0xbb8
where bb8 = 3000 (ms)

result is the final picture is blurry, and details lost although its tries to focus. its not just the visual part, seems to be a combo

The stock gallery is shi*. Try out another gallery app like QuickPic, you'll see the difference man.

Because I don't have that problem. My OB stock gallery was fine...
yup that is a common problem with most android phones, not just ours.
HTC modded their gallery app to overcome this problem.
That's not a problem first of all because this way the images load a lot faster and don't lag because of the 3d effect. The gallery doesn't make them blury just resizes them, who would need it at 5 mpx?also you could always try another gallery app.

very wrong point of view. looking to blurry pictures is sucks. i hardly see small details like faces. we spent hundreds of dollars to this machines. i want best music quality, best picture quality, best gps quality, best call quality, etc. if possible.
btw, quickpic is great. thanks for advice.

Don't believe your camera result by viewing via your phone screen. 5MP jpeg sized into your 800x480 4" screen, of course it will look nice.
professional studio photographer usually using macbook (which is using IPS panel), to direct preview photos instead of their SLR's built in LCD.

He also said viewing at pc better than viewing OB.
I think you will find NO mac book even the pro series has IPS display.
No profesional will use them in studio if choice is given, they are mainly on location solution.
Saying that the p970 screen gives good colour acuracy compared to my CALIBRATED IPS screen. This was the main reason for me buying it as I can't stand the i-junk.
And coming to the point.
Yes the gallery doesn't show properly the pics, but shows them reasonably and provided you do not zoom does the job. My main gripe with yhe galery though is the structure and controls. Too slow and controls are just dumb.
If 100% zoom is required there are plenty of programs in the market that will do it nicely.
QuickPic is indeed fast ,options are easy to sortout. I like functionality instead off visual candy

Best camera app for DHD on ICS

Hello all.
Did somebody came up yet with a better solution than Camera Zoom FX (can be paid)?
It could be nice to have something like FX, but with touch to focus, sharpness options and some video recorder (as a seperate app) which could do 720p (?)
PS. Is it just me, or is there barely any difference compared HTC 5 and 8 mpx cameras?
I mean, look at these http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire-review-468p9.php
try these
am using UCam ultra which is working fine with more light spaces. where as in less light you will be seeing blurred or some dark pixels...
you can go for multi lens camera also. its different and funny
Thanks, will look at it.
Miui gb camera. You'll have to trouble shoot to get it working properly, but after that picture clarity is on par with HTC sense's camera.

Also Camera 360 is not bad either. A lot of options and good (I think) quality.
Still, in low light the pictures are quite bad, but I think that is a problem of the phone, not the camera app (I have tried several, the same result).
I use camera pro app. Works flawless

For some reasons, for all of apps above, there are glitches issue.
Ucam seems awesome, clean interface, useful features. Too bad it doensn't work, it restart right after I taken picture of it.
I think it's a kernel issue if Ucam is force closing.'Cause the app "use" the stock camera to take pictures. And if you're stock camera is buggy, a 3rd app wouldn't work. Tell me if i'm wrong

I get Ucam v2.3 force close only on Lord's IceCold. But works very good with Ucam v1.6.
JellyBean MIUI ROM ported for DHD has properly working touch to focus function with what seems to be the stock AOSP camera... It's a shame tho this ROM has many visual bugs, and using any other app that uses camera (instagram, barcode scanners..) is almost impossible as they give huge artifacts...
The question is, is it possible to somehow port camera used in MIUI JB ROM to AOSP ROMS and not f&^* up qcode scanners?

Been digging to deep i suppose ;D
I'm using Camera Zoom FX for about a year, haven't found the better one with at least the same speed.
I really enjoy using camera360

Hmm your first 2 photos were taken with a Canon PowerShot G9?
Photos captured with our phone are often trouble in focus, best way I found is to use third party apps like lgCamera Pro and Camera ICS (or Camera JB). They make much higher quality pictures, which are sharper and less noises

I tried LG camera pro app. it has a lot of options to capture picture and capture video. But I notice that when I capture video auto focus is not working, not on lg camera pro and no on camcorder (stock cm7) , just focused at beggining and then no focus ;( could it be cm7 bug?
It's not a bug of cm7 is a bug of the app.. However are you sure that with stock camera you can register up to 30 minutes?

nice camera app from lenovo flagship set with 13mp

Just instal and see the difference. You'll love this camera app with sharp pictures and less noise.
This can be installed on optimus 4x hd. The camera app has functions like hdr , lots of cool effects,
etc.
This app can be downloaded from official Z thread.
I take no credit . Thanks to one who helped to poty this cool camera app.
Official thread :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2415295
I like it, thanks. Not perfect, some options don't work (eg. shutte sound set to off still plays) and the gallery is portrait only, but quite good app. Only thing left is to see if 5+ MB pics are corrupted like with stock.
Yup, still corrupted :c
Nice app. Burst and panaroma options make the application crash when selected.
You can record videos in gif format and the gallery application is quite good.

same thing lol it works great.
after a day, this app went crazy and made my cpu stay at 100% almost all the time.
Deleted it and now its fine
I tried it on CM11 20140107 version and iodak v9.1 and it takes better pictures regarding the frontal camera, while it's the opposite with the main camera.
It has many settings and options and I would recommend it for its pictures taken from the frontal camera.
O.t.: I would like to know if there's any way to improve the brightness of the frontal camera during videocalls..
