Hello, I have low vision. It is very difficult for me to read. I would like to know if you can help me. I have a motorola edge 30 ultra. I would like to take pictures of the stars with the g cam, but I am trying different versions of the application and I cannot keep the shutter open with the main camera. or telephoto in some versions of the application, only 10 seconds of exposure are maintained, I need a minute and a half or two. Does anyone know which version can be used or how to solve this?

Is it me??? Or is the camera on the Tilt sub par? Once the camera actually takes the picture it's somewhat decent, but it's getting the shot that's almost impossible.
I realize that this is a "Camera Phone", but come on. The delay on the view finder is horrible, it's so blurry and slow you can hardly find the subject you want to take a picture of. Once you finally find your subject and press the execute button, it takes 5+ seconds for the actual picture to be taken; by that time, the subject has moved and the picture is blurred. Every time I take a picture of someone, I have to pre-warn them not to move until I tell them to. The delay sucks no matter what setting the camera is on...
My wife has a blackberry pearl and the camera is much better; the view finder is real-time and not sluggish. The pictures come out very nice.
Is there a program out there that will better the camera software? Something???ANYTHING!!!
Mine also is very slow to take the picture, but it is very good quality once it does. Very clear, and the resolution is fonally good enough to do something with...
I have a good camera that I use, but my razor did a much better job with taking a quick snapshot. I did not get the tilt for the camera but if it was more usable (like a $100 camera from 3 years ago). I would use it more.
I have to capture to main memory to use even though I have a fast 4GB card in the tilt.
Welcome to 3 months ago. This topic has been discussed to death. There is no known solution (yet). The problem is most prevalent in low light situations.
Can you point me in the right direction for that Thread? I've done searches and can't seem to find the thread that discusses the camera issue.
Thanks.

Welcome everyone!
This thread has been created for extreme newbies/noobs and for their benefit. Not only noobs, but everyone is free to post questions and also give answers to those questions. Any type of question is allowed as long as it is related about the device. Off-topic discussions are allowed to some extent.
When I zoom in using the camera, I can see it switch to the telephoto only once I hit 10x zoom. Anywhere up to 10x it uses the main camera, even at 9.9x zoom it's still the main camera. Only above 10x does it switch to the telephoto.
This isn't normal behaviour, is it? Is there a setting I can change? I don't understand why it's doing this.
I believe from what I have read that this is normal.

So how do I use the telephoto camera for 5x zoom? When I set the camera to 5x zoom all I'm getting is digital zoom of the main camera. I check after taking test photos and shots in the range of 1-9.9x zoom all have f1.6 aperture, 10x zoom photos have f3.4 aperture which proves the telephoto is only being used for 10x. Very confusing because I thought the telephoto camera is 5x.
The main camera uses 5X zoom and the telephoto kicks in at 10X, as you mentioned. I don't believe you can change that, but I'm not 100% on it. You may be able to use another "photo app" that will allow it.
I've seen videos of people using their P30 Pro and the camera behaviour is as expected: the telephoto kicks in at 5x and above. I have only seen one video of a P30 Pro behaving the way I've described mine is. Maybe a software issue? I'm on EMUI 9.1.0.110 with no update available yet. VOG-L04.
Hi everyone!
Potential future P30 Pro owner here, but I have a few questions about the device.
I come from Xperia devices (Z, then XZ) and I am looking to upgrade soon. As a matter of fact, I tried out a Mate 10 Pro a few months ago and got really interested in Huawei ever since.
However, when I tried it, a couple of things that I guess I expected to be on every android phone simply weren't there, so here are my questions:
On the Mate 10 Pro, it was impossible to do the following on the lockscreen: expand notifications to interact with them (such as viewing and replying to a sms/whatsapp, preview an email and delete/archive/reply, etc), and it was also impossible to switch from ring/vibrate/do not disturb using the volume button when the phone was locked.
All of this is possible on my XZ and they are very handy features that I would really like to have on my next phone. Was this only Mate 10 stuff, or is that part of the EMUI design?
When I am reading articles or watching review videos, I don't seem to find anyone talking about this, it mostly is about camera and hardware.
On another note, the reason why I returned the Mate 10 was because once paired with my car via bluetooth, the sound when listening to music was crackling and crippled, which definitely ruined the experience. Not related to the app or the car, I tried many different options but it never worked properly. Found out later that it was a rather common issue with this phone at the time (perhaps updates have solved that since.) Anyone can say if this is an issue with the P30 pro or share their experience?
Thank you all for your time and help!
I'm looking to get my wife this phone (she currently has a Mate 10 Pro, but I'm still not 100% sure what works (and doesn't work) on T-Mobile in the US.
i have updated my huawei p30 pro to EMUI 10.1.0 on 14 July 2020, in region pakistan, and phone was bought in UAE.
The camera app has some settings changed after update, and placed in different section but thats not the case.
Story:
i have done night photography through huawei p30 pro on its previous software, through its official camera app from pro mode, and shutter speed was working fine and giving proper result like if set for 30 seconds so it were capturing for 30 seconds.
But after the update, and tonight at 16 july, i was trying to capture milky way through it, i have set all the procedures needed like tracking milky way and tripod setup etc.
Now i was capturing photos with 30 seconds shutter speed and when the timer will be over the phone will stuck on loading and the pictures will be appeared after a while in gallery.
But i have captured many pictures and still got no perfect result and so i got bit curious because i have watched review of samsung galaxy s20 series phone and it was capturing fine but in my huawei only a tiny bit of something was showing in resulted pictures of milky way.
then i got focused on shutter speed, and it was set on 30 seconds but when i campared it through stop watch in other phone so it was capturing for 15 seconds but the screen was showing that it is set to 30 seconds, i restarted cam app, but still same, tried shutter speed with different mode like wide, normall, optical zoomed, but all are giving 15 seconds and similarly 7 seconds for 15 seconds, and rest it goes upto 32 seconds in 30 seconds mode but capturing is stopped at 15 seconds and rest is just processing only, and only more thing is that EV function gets locked if iso is modified, and then even if you set to auto of any other value but EV will remain locked.
So please someone verify it with old version if you have it and if not then please if any expert is availble so please carify me something, and tell me how to downgrade it so i can get the feature for 30 second back.

Hi, I will tell you what I have read that has helped me, hopefully it will help you too.
1) Make sure lenses are clean, I thought mine were but it made a big difference after I cleaned them.
2) In 10x zoom mode and low light, I have to manually zoom out to 16x before it switches to the 10x lense, hopefully it will be fixed in a software update. If you use Night Mode for low light it gives much better pictures.
3) For moon shots, I find it easier to use 30x zoom, tap the rectangular box that appears to the top right to "lock on" and it turns yellow, then tap on the moon to get the "yellow box" to focus. I have read that it makes no difference between 30x and 100x pictures as they are all digital zoom (somebody might know better info on this)
4) For close up/macro shots use the standard wide camera and get close to what you want to photograph, when you get really close you should see a yellow or whie dot appear in the bottom left of the screen, this is the "focus enhancer", tap that to make it yellow to get the best pictures.
Hope this helps you a little more.
Hi. Just a heads up for anyone else coming here. My brand new Ultra camera did this exact thing (couldn't focus beyond 10 x zoom and was too shakey to use at that level). 100% the cause for me was vibrations from my motorbike. I had it in an unpadded mount which had never affected my S10 but a single ride killed my S21 Ultra. Luckily Samsung fixed it under warranty for me.
Hi all friends, camera of my S21u (SM-G998B/DS) has had a focus issue for around 4-5 months now. When shooting the camera fails to focus on objects or humans around 1 meter away or more. The image comes out blurred. My temporary solution is to shake the phone a few times at medium strength against my palm before taking photos. This helps a lot, but not always. Moreover, when using between 3x and 10x zoom, the screen displaying the image is shaking terribly. When more than 10x, no more shake. However, when shooting close-up it is very good and never fails to impress. I can get as close as 1cm and no intervention at all.
I always update my phone to the latest version available from Samsung, hoping that it would fix this issue. But issue still remains.
Same here, I noticed this a few months ago, always updated firmware, never hard drops (few small drops with case).
one solution is to give a little bump to the camera corner and the focus works.
Some say blocked OIS sensor, others say after certain firmware update, I don't know yet the correct answer.
Thank you mcbyte_it for sharing.
I feel this may be a software issue. I hope Samsung will fix it soon; otherwise this will be my last Samsung phone for me.
