I'm a big fan of CM and other non-Samsung versions of Android. In the past, there has been no real reason to keep Samsung based ROMs. But with the S3, the stock camera app seems so much better than everything else, this is a problem.
Are there any ways of running the stock camera app in CM at the moment?
OR
Are there any alternative camera apps that can do the kind of continuous speed shooting (20 exposures etc.) that the Samsung stock app can do?

I would recommend using hx camera mod. I can say that it 's the best camera app so far especially when recording a video at 30Mbit - 1080p superfine. Try to look at this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691145 or http://hx-custom-roms.com/galaxy-s3-camera-mod

Thanks. I think this will only work on stock roms though as it is Samsung framework dependant. What I really want is something that will allow me to leave Samsung roms and move to for example Cyanogen mod, but keep the additional functionality found in the Samsung camera app.

When looking at a rom, all say no working camera. Does this mean the default camera doesn't work and I can just use a third party one. And one more question, does anyone know a rom for the galaxy player 5.0 with working hardware accel, panaorid android says working camera and "hw accel" but none of the replies confirms that

to the best of my knowledge it means that there are no good camera drivers and the camera does not work at all, or doesn't work properly.

no working camera means the camera will force close or will take screwed up pictures. most of the time a dev will recommend a 3rd party camera app or someone else in the thread will -just search- . gmillz PA says HW accel and Camera works -I just checked-
I wanna use HDR+ on the Google camera 4.4 app, but it's not there. Why? is it specific to nexus devices only? is there a way?

Because your hardware and included software libraries don't support it.
Hey guys,
after a couple of days with the Z2 I really can't wait for Cyanogenmod to arrive. Although I'm very happy with the hardware, the ROM leaves a lot to desire.
One thing that does seem to be better with the stock ROM is the camera. Between the 4K video recording function and the various other functions that come with the stock camera I was wondering what prevents us from getting the stock camera on a 3rd party ROM? Wouldn't it be possible to extract everything from the stock ROM to another ROM?
If that's not possible, what good alternatives for a 3rd party camera are there? Any recommendations?
Camera FV-5

I just tried the cinema app they offer and sadly it is limited to 1080p and a max framerate of 30. These are really two features I'd like to keep. Still gonna try the camera app and compare it to the stock app. Will post the photos later tonight.

I don't know any good app for 4K video but Camera FV-5 is pretty good for stills...
While the CM13 included camera app is relatively fast and great for quick-snap photos, I did manage to make some impressive photos while playing around on EMUI camera in Pro mode (before I flashed the phone), looking suprisingly good for such a low tier camera.
Since there's no manual mode in CM13, which camera app would you recommend to purchase/download(if free)?
Also, is the HDR bug guaranteed to occur in every app?
Thanks in advance!
Snap Camera works great!
How do u get SnapCamera on CM? Can you just flash it or..

As far as I'm aware Honor 5x nightlies don't include the Snap camera yet. It ships with the legacy Camera, which takes mediocre pictures and can't do HDR or Panoramas.
Google Camera is available for Panoramas, but the accelerometer/gyroscope is very jittery on the phone, so the stitching doesn't do a good job.
I don't think this issue is gonna be resolved until Camera2 API is ported into our CM nightly.

I do think the same, it's about software, not a specific camera app
I tried putting the ro.camera2.prtabilty.force_api=1 in the default.prop file by splitting boot.img and reflashing boot.IMG, putting manual focus line in build.prop and then flashing the ported emui 4.0 camera with twrp... Still badluck as it says Unfortunately, camera has stopped working
Just use Cm marsh(cm based costom ROM ) comes with snap camera

I've found that, no matter what camera app I install, I can't get the same picture quality I used to get on the stock ROM. Is there a reason for this? The drivers, maybe?

I guess is the camera processing is different on stock ROM from custom ROMs
