[Q] Photo Resolution after TW - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone notice that photo clarity is poor when scrolling through albums? Most of the photos I have imported were taken on a 12 mp camera and would traditionally sharpen automatically when i scrolled to a new picture. Would take a second but the pic would sharpen considerably.
Since the updrade to TW my pictures no longer sharpen automatically. If I resize a photo (pinch and then unpinch) the photo will then sharpen..
Basically, if I want a sharp photo I need to manually force to sharpen.
---- just spoke to samsung rep, acknowledged issue but offered no solution. No auto enhancement with TW. Very disappointing.

Contact pics

The contact picture appears as magnified and very bad looking.
I set my contact pictures from pics taken with hero camera.
When I set a picture that I imported (taken with 10 mp camera) it is a little better - but not good.
I don't understand what is wrong & how am I supposed to set a picture to look nice.
The icon looks nice - only the calling picture is affected.

instagram ruining photos?

Hello! This is my first post here in the galaxy s5 forum... has anyone noticed that instagram blurs photos? I have taken quite a few awesome shots with this camera and even when im editing them in instagram they look great, but when I upload it the picture looks all blury.. does this have something to do with the high quality image process thing on instagram?
I find that Instagram definitely lowers the quality of photos. It seems the only photos that are perfect quality with Instagram are photos take on the iPhone.... :/ I wish they would change this for Android. A 16MP camera is a shame to waste.
This is a known bug with the crappy instagram app on Android.

Resolution panoramic photos

Hello
I have a smartphone with a 5mpx camera so it captures pictures with a resolution of 2560*1920, but on panorama mode each piece of picture have a resolution of 640*480, poor when zooming the picture.
I tried a lots of applications but the same conclusion, except ProCapture - camera + panorama which delivers a better quality on panorama mode, but it's still below my expectations, and the quality of the panorama is below the quality of normal photos
example, I took two pictures with camera pro, one with normal mode and the other with the panorama mode, the normal photo has a resolution of 2560*1920 and 4594*789 for panorama photo, logically panorama photo is composed of 4 photos than it should have a resolution of 2560x4 = 10240
either 10240*1920
do you know a camera application that delivers panoramic photos without losing quality?
Well, as far as I can say, there are no apps that I know off about taking panorama photos with the actual resolution.
But a nifty thing can be taking all the photos normally like you would, and then making a panorama out of it on Photoshop.
ok thank you
but why there is no app that take a panorama photo with the maximum resolution

[Q] Samsung Camera: Extract Shot&More frames; SoundShot Audio; VirtualShot, etc.

I recnetly tried to view some images on a Windows computer, that were shot with some shooting modes the camera application of some Samsung Galaxy smartphones. But everything that I can see with the picture viewer is the first frame. The picture files are much larger than a normal photo, because the other data is inside of it.
Shot&More — Captures eight frames in row and saves them into one .jpg file. The gallery application is able to extract some effects from it, which can be exported into an additional picture: Drama Shot, Eraser, Best Photo, Best Face, Panorama Sport Scene. Unfortionately, not all extraction modes are compatible with all scenes.
SoundShot — Captures a photo and records the sound from the microphones and puts the audio track into the JPG file. The sound can be recorded before or after the picture was taken (but the EXIF Information does not include this information as far as I know). The maximum length of the audio track is ten seconds.
Selective Focus (introduced in S5): Shots two pictures with different focus settings, so that selecting a preferred focus setting after capturing the shot is possible:
Near focus: Obstacles near to the camera are visible sharply, while the background is unsharp.
Far focus: The background is sharp, while objects near to the camera are blurred
Pan focus: The complete photo is sharp, because the pan focus photo consists of the sharp parts from each frame
Blurred focus: The opposite of pan focus; everything is blurred.
Golf Shot mode (Note 3 only) — I am not sure, how it works, because I have not tried and investigated it yet.
VirtualShot (introduced in the S6) — Captures a 360-Degree View around an object, so that you can view it from every angle. You have to go around an obstacle with your camera.
Virtual Tour — Captures a Virtual Tour through the sphere, where you align your camera and go through the room. It also captures the path, where the tour goes — The viewer can navigate through the shot surrounding and see the path as a line. (This shooting mode does not exist on the S6 and newer. It was replaced by VirtualShot.)
Even IrfanView is unable to display all frames or play/extract the audio track of those picture files.
Is there any Windows software, that is able to extract the frames or produce the effects from a Shot&More picture or to extract the sound from SoundShot (lossless if possible), or etc. ?
It would be good, if it is OpenSource, but it does not have to be open-source, as long as it wours
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
