didnt know how to get better quality ploads on a thread

WOW, it's using photon camera? what firmware do you use?

I'm not saying that you're lying, which I'm 99.99% sure that you're telling the truth.
In my personal experience, I could never get images like that, what do you do??? I kinda find it hard to believe, although I'm pretty darn sure that you wouldn't lie about it... It just feels unreal. My Photon's Camera can't take pictures like that!!!

Nice... I really don't know why a lot of people complain about the Camera.
I find my Photon's camera pretty damn good for a Phone's camera.
I mean come on it is not a Digital camera!

5 shots of Bartlett Lake here in Arizona using the Pano app

there isn't a secret just take millions of pictures most are bound to be ****ty but occasionally you'll come across one thats truely great in your opinion
also i think that this phone is a great replacement for a basic point and shoot camera unless you are a photographer and need a lens long like your fore arm !

I think that most people don't realize is that thanks to the pentile display pictures don't look as good as they really are, if you transfer your pics to your computer you will see how good they truly are..
I would say that 75% (or maybe more) of the pictures I take with my photon are pretty good.. and 25% are great!
Using apps like Camera ZOOM FX, Camera 360 ultimate and HDR+ (not really a fan of the Vignette app)
You can improve your results.

in my opinion its best to take the picture without any effects and add the effect after with a program or something cause think about it this way ,take a picture in black and white (or any other effect ) and you lose some of the details about the picture that you never get back !

I like the camera on the Photon but I find that my battery life starts plummeting when I'm walking around snapping shots here and there all day. I don't know if it's the camera or maybe just the increased time the screen is on to take pictures. I try to keep my brightness as low as possible. Either way, I don't have to carry a separate camera on me to take pictures so I'm happy. Just need to remember to bring the charger.

Advise for those of you who say the atrixs camera sucks

Hey guys,
So if you still think the camera on the atrix sucks check out some shots I just got done taking. I have not edited these photos in anyway.
I used the LG camera pro app messed around with some settings particularly the white balance and Viola!!
These shots look pretty good to me.
Some of them kinda of mimick the iPhones ..saturation.

What were your settings?
I had no problem using the camera on the Atrix, I was taking some close up images recently and was impressed by its ability to do the pictures well. I used the stock camera app too.
The lighting situation was pretty bad, but they still turned out ok.
This is what I was taking pictures of:

I think the quality of the pics are not bad at all, but I do notice that when you first open the camera app and the first photo you take never seems to focus very good. any after that focus fine. Even with tap and hold to focus, the first shot seems poor.
Here are a few good shot I got with mine unedited.
How did you guys upload such big ones?

Cute dogs haha... The flash doesn't compensate well at all. My n1 camera didn't work well with the flash either until cm6 so I don't expect much but anything close to macro with the flash becomes 2+ stops overexposed

Atrix Camera
Not sure why some people are complaining about the camera on the Atrix. If you think it's bad, try using the camera on the Inspire. I had the Inspire before I switched to the Atrix, and lemme tell ya; the camera on the Inspire is disappointing, considering it's 8mp. Photos were grainy, and had a haze on most photos. IMO, I think the camera on the Atrix is pretty good. Photos are clear and sharp, and it's one of the fastest camera's on a cell phone I've used.

Evo3D - camera software or lens problem?

Hello!
I'v noticed that left part of pictures taken by my HTC evo 3D are a bit blurry?
could you guys try to take some pictures outside, and inside and check it?
Using Leedroid ROM + Kernel
I will upload some pics as soon as I get home.

Have you tried cleaning the lens first? A dirty lens can easily blur sections of the photo. I'm at work and on mobile so it's a little difficult to see in detail how the blurring is.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
looks normal, whats wrong with the photos?
Taking another look on a monitor, I do see some things but unfortunately it's the software (most likely). What you're expecting is sharp photos, right? Who wouldn't? Well, the Evo 3D compresses the photos pretty significantly. There is/was an apk of the HTC Amaze camera floating around the GSM dev thread you can try. I'd recommend the apk to install vs the zip to flash so you can easily remove it. There's no compression with that one.
Could you take a picture of maybe a table, wall with some texture. I kind of see what you are talking about but cannot be for certain with the pictures posted. Are you seeing that in the first picture, the boats and the bottom of the light pole are a little blurry and on the 2nd picture, you are seeing the trees on the left blurry? If you could get a pretty solid object to take a picture of, it would make it easy to see.
I didnt had any colored textures around, so I used two pieces of paper with text on it.
1st - Right paper was focused in middle (Used light)

2nd - Left paper was focused in middle (Used light)

I used stock camera and stock kernel I always make sure my lens are clean and have at it with the right light.... I also never photo shop any of my pics I took lol.. I like the camera on the 3D just the 5mp takes great shots..
3D is kinda a gimmick not so much a fan of it but still like it...
That last pic is when a tornado was getting ready to touch down ....
I am on Fresh ROM by Flipz
So final solution is to send it on warranty?
Sending it back may mean you get hboot 1.5 if you don't already. I didn't see that much wrong but check for dirt or scratches on the lens as mentioned before. It could also be a hint of depth of field if its only affecting portions of the image. That's not likely with our lens, but it is possible. Macro photos with this camera have depth of field very obvious.
Iv'e clenead my lens, they are like "baby's ass" but I dont notice it on videos or 3D photos, only on 2D photos I notice that focus problems.... while on videos there is no such problem...
Please advice

The blur is probably because a phone's shape doesn't lend itself to taking a shot AND holding the phone still. Also, the sensor is teensy tiny, and it doesn't have a very fast "shutter speed". So, it's like taking pics with an SLR in dim light with a 1/30 second shutter: it's going to have motion blur w/o a stand. If you want crystal clear shots, use a vise/stand of some kind.
Maybe Canon's or Nikon's next pro-sumer DSLR will make/receive calls, texts, and play Angry Birds.
I use CameraZoomFX which lets me prop the phone and 'tell' the camera to take the picture hands-free. Those shots are always very clear. Handheld shots, not so much.

Oh will be nice to have a call with a 70-200 2.8 in hand
Okay, I'm lost....
Can anyone who still had pics prior to the leaks and NOW have one of the leaks post comparison pics? I mean seriously, as crisp as the photos are on GB, I can't see how there's such a need for enhancement to the razr's photo quality that it warrants a full thread. lol I'm still on a totally stock GB rom (anxiously biting my nails waiting for the update) and I'm ABSOLUTELY ASTONISHED at how crisp and detailed the camera's photos are.
Lol. Calls will be short with that lens on there. It would be funny though, seeing how huge people's arms get from holding a 4 kilo phone all day. They'd look like hermit crabs.
yeah its with ics leaks .204 let me look at my fb pictures maybe i got one with GB
i found one with GB
BTW - I've tried all of the "pro" camera apps available, and Camera FV-5 is easily the best one.
As to pictures on ICS vs GB, at least on .79, there isn't a huge change. It's all in the app you use.
The stock camera app on ICS seems to focus better prior to capture.
A good camera app should be able to take the same quality pic on GB as it would on ICS unless there was a flaw in the camera drivers under GB, which I don't think there was.
The Razr seems to have a decent sensor, but cheap / small optics. Don't get me wrong, it does take pretty good shots, but not like you'd see on a newer device with bigger, higher quality lenses. The sensor is only half of the battle, but people give the megapixel count all of their attention.
Some of the newer cams (like the OneX) have better optics and you can tell the difference right away. Plus a bigger lens helps keep noise down in dark shots.

Tips for getting better pictures with the G2

I know that the camera is decent. Heck look at this guy's album on Google+
https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/+LukasFrimerTholander/albums/5945766779380687681?sort=1
No matter how hard I try, the pictures I take, almost always look washed out. In most of the reviews the camera was praised for colour accuracy and reproduction. I'm not talking about perfectly lit scenarios but more or less like the ones I've posted above. Do you guys leave yours at Auto , Intelligent Auto etc. Whatever tips and tricks you can share I'm sure will greatly benefit the community.
[I know there is a thread regarding the slow shutter and focus but that's not the point over here.]
Cheers !
Mine look as good if not better. I use AI most, normal and manual otherwise. Focus isn't slow for me, shutter speed regarding moving items in less than full blast light are and get blurry easy. Software fixes needed. My still shots are incredibly brilliant and accurate for a smartphone camera.

Thanks for your reply. The cat wasn't pleased though .
my two cents
I just took two pictures, one using normal and one using IA. the IA is FAR better for focus, speed of shot, etc. But there is some serious work that needs to be done on the software for this camera.
I LOLd so hard on the **** soup
Also have some **** flavored spice.

Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I personally feel on the stock camera app , the auto ISO is a little bit too sensitive, causing unnecessary noise. I usually set the ISO to 800 (the max it allows in manual control) and the shot turns out significantly better.
Using IA pictures are somewhat better ! . BTW can someone modify the camera to save the settings ? because it always starts on Normal mode !
I used Intelligent Auto for the pics of my Spigen Case, seems to have worked well.
These pics are actually lower quality than the ones on my computer because there was probably some compression done during uploading/
Does anyone know of a way to make the IA setting stick? Every time I leave the camera app I have to mess with settings to get it back. I've tried just hitting the home button and leaving the app open but it reverts. Annoying! !
I agree about always leaving it in hdr mode but I also can't find a way to set it to stick

I'm going to Paris in about a month and will take dslr camera as main photo device, but I will also take pictures with G2.
For various shots I find iA and night mode in low light fine, but what mode do you recommend for city sights? Is it sports in the day and night mode in low light or should I use iA and will be fine?

Not satisfied with the camera

Anyone else not satisfied with the camera?
I already took a great shot but most of them just feel soft and not sharp at all!
A lot of noise as well when zooming in.
I'm quite shocked as my OnePlus 3 takes better pictures (GCam).
The selfie cam is the worst. On OP3 I can basically see all of my skins pores, beard hair etc.
On the mate it's just soft(no matter the setting).
I'm on firmware 122 btw.
Would be good to know if that's just my taste or a wrong setting maybe?
Thanks!
In general:
Very satisified with the back camera.
But the selfiecam is kind of 'boring'.
You should provide pics to make your case as the question is so broad and the answers are so many.
Took a few pics today and really impressed with the back camera. The front camera isn't great and beautifies every image and looks soft. Hopefully a software update could fix this. Came from a pixel 2 which I think are the ones to beat at moment for camera phones.
Back camera is really great. In selfie camera there is an option to switch off beauty mode. Try with that option and you will get better selfies than Samsung Galaxy flagships.
I just posted to a similar thread over in news aand discussion.....
I too am disappointed with the M20 pro camera, mostly indoors in not so good (but hardly terrible) light the images are really quite soft
Looking at the exif it always seems to choose a really low shutter speed and as others have said no OIS on the main camera. Like I said disappointing, I am on .238, no idea if there are any camera improvements to come on .266 or 9.1?
Light can change your thoughts
Yes the mate 20p camera tends to take soft and sometimes blurry photos. I blame the lack of OIS.
With a little extra effort you can take awesome photos, but for point and shoot many other phones do that better.
I just moved from op3 to mate 20 pro, principally for the camera and... I'm disappointed, my ops3 photo's with gcam are a lot better! All photos in middle light (and hdr condition) look like they are painted!
I tried to make some side by died) side comparison and one plus 3 photos are better in everything

I just moved from op3 to mate 20 pro, principally for the camera and... I'm disappointed, my ops3 photo's with gcam are a lot better! All photos in middle light (and hdr condition) look like they are painted!

Me is not possibile, I was keeping one phone in a hand and the other one in the other, setting i don't know maybe.. M but I just opened the camera and chosen hdr..., have you some setting to suggest?
Some photos are good but others no..., color are a little bit more ok and grass looks painted
Now in no more at home, this weekend I'm coming to post some comparisons if needed

Are you using vivid mode? Try turning that to standard
I'm very satisfied with the camera, I think this is all about setting, not the camera or the phone.

I tried that setting but it doesn't look to influence the "painted effect"
This weekend on going to make a more detailed test and on case I'm going to post some photos

Turn off AI maybe. Honestly if you're trying to tell us one of the best rated phone cameras of all time gets bested by one of the most mediocre, you'd better have some valid evidence lol
My only gripe is the AI sometimes gets confused like when it thought this shot was winter and it changed the images completely

That is a totally feasible complaint as I have had this happen as well. Sometimes AI is better off for certain shots for sure
That's why it is handy on the latest 9.1 update to turn on and off without going into settings. You can also of course click the X when it detects what it think it is. I have had no issues with the camera in default mode and actually find it performs better after the last update, especially the transition when going to 3x zoom.
what bugs me is the "hold steady while camera sharpens the image".
Is there a way to avoid this?

Nope, The phone is taking a auto hdr(thats even more extreme than the HDR mode btw) photo,generally it doesnt matter if you move or take another photo while the camera tells you that, i just ignore it.
