Hey have you tried this app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCameraPro&feature=search_result
They say is a better camera app than the stock camera app, I have tried on void#forever but I think I couldnt set it correctly because forced closes..and other issues
So any of you use it? What do u think, is better than the default app..? Why
Thanks!
i use the free version and it works fine, i dont know any other cam apps that allows remap of the search button as shutter so this is what i use, currently using it on void #forever with no major issues, tho i think something may have broken zoom (might be CMSettings), but i think its just digital zoom anyway?
Using camera 360 full version... Love the app and its effects.
any other opinion?
well thanks you. holymolys how have u set the app settings?
I prefer stock app

+1 it's one of the best camera apps
I prefer stock app, too.
vignette is also a very nice choice as well. imo the paid version is well worth the money.
the lgcamera app is the best for recording videos. you can change the sound to acc and you get crispy clear sound on your video. and you can change the format of the video too. for photos i use the stock one
camera 360 is the best ... and its HDR effect is awesome..... it removes the dullness of the stock camera..... just try it....

LGCamera is THE best . Have alots of settings . And work video recording at 20fps , not 18 stock .
The default app included in Void #Forever allows you to change the shutter to a key. I prefer it over the apps here =D

Guys i have some question in Camera 360:
1. Whats the Diff between Manual focus and pre focus?
2. And there are an array of settings, under the icon (P in a camera) like stabilizer,2grid,4grid,dizziness etc
Anyone knows abt it
camera 360 has better performance than stock camera but i don't need all it effects.
Has anyone edited the stock camera app to record videos at high fps.??
like 720p with 30fps will be nice Is it possible .??

I think thats impossible xD
I have the three apps for camera: default from void, LgCamera and 360Camera.
The first is good for photos, but usually they are very "black" and I have to increase exposure.
The second one made me a lot of boots and issues... I cant set it correctly
About 360camera...I dont like thoose effects, I only want normal photos xD. And each time I want to use it..I have to click two or three times on some buttons for set the camera working. On the others, you click on camera app and its done, you can make photos since that moment.

No way !!!!!
even though the processor can encode upto 720x480 @ 30fps but the camera hardware outputs max 640x480 @18fps so 640x480 @18fps is maximum ....
CAN ANY ONE PORT THIS MOD FOR LWW! Its just awesome...

You already have smooth HD recording(no lag), if you disable the Video Stabilizer, just like it is written there:
Tips for Smooth HD Video Recording :
turn off image stabilizer in setting camera
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then, LWW cannot record Stereo sound, it has only one mic.
And Fast Capture...you already have shortcut on lockscreen, isn't it enough?
It does have secondary microphone, but its used for noise-cancellation, rather than for stereo recording (and i havent noticed any difference in L/R audio channels whatsoever, so it's still a mono sound).
In the mean time (after last post), i've installed patched Camera app (link in my sig), and it increased camera bitrate from 6 to 10Mbit.
Image stabilizer is off, and i do have shortcut on lockscreen, i'm just curious what new audio/video libs can bring to the table
So I've got the Jellybean 4.2 camera working on the Rage Rom 1.8 I'm currently running, all is well except for:
1- video recording
2- picture editing (within gallery)
3- view photosphere images (in 3d space)
has anyone else been able to get those features working on Rezound???

Both camera and keyboard work on rage. To get panorama to work you have to edit the build prop to device Galaxy Nexus and the model to Google. Reboot and you'll be good to go.
The only problem i have with the camera is the green flicker that's pretty consistent but in no way breaks functionality.

i am on stock 4.0 and i am getting the same thing..any help please..
A few people have asked me which camera based apps work well with this camera. So I thought I would share some findings here.
Essentially any Android app that makes use of a phone's camera will work with the Galaxy Camera, ie will allow access to the camera module and take the picture. The compatibility issues to be wary of are interface issues. This I find is either an app that only allows portrait mode, an app that uses an on screen slider for zooming (the zoom button on the camera controls the volume level in the app), an app that keeps the lens extended making the camera awkward to hold whilst using the editing features within the app and finally some storage location issues.
The following camera and editing apps are the ones I have tested so far:
HDR Camera+
Takes the picture with the shutter button or a screen tap and applies colour processing as desired, but uses an on screen zoom slider which zooms correctly but is awkward to use when holding the camera.
Camera Zoom FX
As above. The horizon level and shake detection work as designed too. However the camera shutter button sometimes takes the picture at the halfway point. Because of the weight of the camera and slightly awkward positioning of the on screen controls, I found myself accidently taking pictures.
Lapse it Pro
Again uses an on screen zoom but otherwise works as expected.
Pics Play Pro editor
An excellent editor but sadly only works in portrait mode. Does not have its own camera, will ask you to choose including the default camera.
Instagram
Comes pre-installed but interface only shows portrait mode, you can take a shot in landscape but the interface doesn't rotate with the viewfinder. I believe this is the same when used on a phone.
PicSay Pro
This is probably the best photo editor out there, it works in landscape mode but the feature that's missing oddly is a capture function. Why this is missing is beyond me. So you will have to take a picture normally then open it up in the app.
I would be quite happy to try out any other camera specific apps if anyone wants me to and will add to my list.

Thnx for post!
Can you please try from play google com

And one more question - can any of photo applications control Optical Zoom by its on-screen-slider (not by hardware buttons)? Or only built-in?
Can you get any app to record slow motion video ( or does it work only in samsung's app ) ?
And maybe little OT: if you could please check little of USB OTG functionality ?
I can confirm that, on a rooted SGC, the OTG works, if Stick Mount is installed. I didn't try it without Stick Mount installed.
The default file manager opens automatically, I switched to the USB drive and could read all contents and open images using default Gallery.

The paid for Pro Capture Camera + Panarama app works with the Zoom button, albeit in a less smooth fashion than the default camera app. It doesn't automatically display the volume slider on the display, as most other camera apps from Play. I'll be checking this app out further so will let you know if there's anything else significant.

Paper Camera (paid)
Lets you apply some quirky effects to pictures and movies. Zoom does work in about 3 or 4 stages though (emailed devs, they're looking into it).
IP WebCam
Get to use your cam as a very high resolution IP webcam. Produces some very nice video. More for fiddling around than any serious purpose
The best panorama app in my opinion is ProCapture. You guys should definitely try it out. It produces some amazing hires shots and the algorithm seems very smart.
For HDR, IMO nothing beats HDR Camera+ with 'Pure' setting and noise reduction set to None.

Firstly the on-screen zoom slider does operate the optical zoom in these apps, it's not a digital zoom
Camera FV5 Lite
As far as I can tell this is working as designed, there are a lot of features in the app but as they are processing options they should work fine. Zooming once again isn't available on the hardware button.
LG Camera
The on screen button that has a flower icon... not sure what this is supposed to do, but all that happens when you tap it, is the whole screen turns white. It restores when tapping again. Auto flash is selectable when flash is raised but you cannot turn it off. Lowering the flash light will allow you to select off, but obviously it won't fire anyway in the lowered position.
Camera X Free
This has compatibility problems due to the screen size/resolution. Some of the icons merge together, are not selectable as touching them causes a picture to be taken. Adverts cover top part of screen and saved shots don't seem to appear in the gallery. I would give this a wide berth for now.
My conclusion, is that the camera's own set of utilities and effects are far better than any of these third party camera apps.
I use HDR Camera+ as it's more customisable than the built in Rich Colours setting. I use Camera Zoom FX for the props and frame overlays etc, all other apps I have tried so far I deleted as they just don't add any real value to the camera's own settings.

The built in camera App.
I imagine there might be a couple of libs that are needed like when you use JB4.2 camera App, but just wondered if it would run a phone camera.

Hi,
I'm trying the recommended apps on my GC.
However, I'd like to have some other Camera features:
- 3D still photo (don't say it's impossible with a one-lens camera, Samsung WB850F smart camera can do it with a similar(or same ?) lens of Galaxy Camera)
- 3D panorama (this is another great feature of Samsung WB850F - captures panorama with 3D feature)
- Action panorama (this is another great feature of Samsung WB850F - captures panorama and a moving object on the still background)
Are there any 3rd party apps which could do these 3 features ?
thx.

no ideas ?
I've tried the following apps on Galaxy camera. Some of them are really useful apps. Some of them are not working, crashing.
HD Panorama+
Nice app for panorama photos.
Camera 3D
Manual 3D photo app. There are tons of this kind of 3D photo apps. This one is pretty good.
3D Photo Cam
The description of this app is tempting but it crashed on my Galaxy Camera. HAs anyone tried it successfully ?
FaceinHole
Great app for face in hole scenarios.
PIP Camera
Great PIP scenarios. Really nice.
Twin Me!
Crashed on my Galaxy Camera. But it seems to have uniq features like having 2 times same object in the photo on same background.
Does anyone have any idea why it crashes ?
MotionGraph
Nice one to have only some part of the photo moving.
Why do we have so many apps crashing ? (if they also crash on your GC)

I don't believe so, kept alive by yourself, thanks!
I have become frustrated at the amount of camera apps that only allow portrait view in both interface and on taking pictures. I guess this is down to the damn iPhone mentality again!
I have tended to just use what Samsung has provided and use some decent editing software (where necessary)

Just took a look and it is very impressive. Thanks for sharing.
I've currently installed NeatRom 4.7 Lite. Everything is fine except for the video mode of the standard camera app.
Camera mode is ok as well, but when switching to video mode, the zoom factor seems to change, everything is bigger and I'm unable to record a good video without moving backwards.
Please have a look at the attached screenshots.
Anyone else with this problem?
Anyone with a solution to this?
Thank you.

It's not a problem it happens because of the changes in resolution, in photo mode 8 megapixel capture is at resolution 3264x2448, and max resolution for video recording is 1920x1080.
Edit :If you don't want to step back you can reduce video recording resolution to like 640x480, but the recorded videos will not be good for watching in a big screen.

I was using CheckRom v6 before (Android 2.3.6) and never mentioned anything like this, screen detail was the same in camera and video mode.
Has this something to do with Jelly Bean or only with NeatRom?
Do you know any alternative video recording app?

Well in max resolution(full HD recording) any kind of zooming is not allowed but in lower resolution zooming is there, and I don't remember about gb, but this is common in all my Jellybean device's.
Edit ;So what I mean is since zooming is fixed it's kinda at max zoom, and I am using NeatRom with this device and other jb versions on other devices.

That was my point.
Zoom factor seems to be at max level, whereas it was at min level on GB.
But good to know, that this not a NeatRom failure.

This is a trick used by samsung because we can record on 30fps it crops the image for achiving target fps u cant do anything ..... hardware limitation

I don't know any good ones that record video at full HD, I myself use Camera Zoom FX for multiple camera features, and for video recording they use the stock recorder, and as far as I know the stock video recorder app is referred to as the best, for your problem if you are willing to sacrifice full HD, reducing the resolution to the one just below(1280x720) is also pretty neat since we can play with zooming levels to our desire, I myself find it more comfortable to use.

:good:
Thank you for your answers. Maybe the resolution was set to 1280x720 on CheckROM v6 / Android 2.3.6, so I didn't notice such a difference.
Switched to 1280x720 and now it is ok.
I use Camera Zoom FX for a long time and agree, that it is the best photo solution.
