DNA camera shots - HTC Droid DNA

Figured I would start a thread pertaining to our cameras to see what kind of pictures people are taking, and to see how everyone likes the camera.

Heres a few of mine.
Me shootin some sporting clays
These were taken of my bud, using the multi shot feature.
My money pit
Also, here is a 1080p video of him shooting in the same spot. Dunno how good it will look on a computer screen but should look great on the DNA, make sure to click that 1080p button if viewing on computer.
another vid I took just to see how the quality was on youtube
Okay I'm done blowing up this thread hahahah

Pretty happy with this 200mph hair style shot.

Football game (old pic but still from DNA) Looks much better on the phone.

I love sharing my beautiful photography especially with this awesome DNA camera.
Just an early morning jog and stopped by this gorgeous view by a skate park which was surprisingly empty and just had to take photo.

i dont know how you guys get such nice pics, this is my second dna and even though i love this phone, the camera for me sucks, worst camera for me i feel like its a VGA camera. Any pic i take looks pixelated especially if you try n zoom in, its terrible. Both DNA's i had were the same issues with camera i dont know what is up with it lol

Same for me. The pics look fine on the camera but zoomed in or on a PC they all look grainy.
Could it be a setting, maybe they are too big and don't translate well on lower res?
If anyone has any tips I'd love to hear them !

Yea some people got hurt in the stands. Those car are really moving, and you feel it when standing next to the track. Kinda scary having a car 3ft from you go by at 200mph.

New camera shots on Picasa

I checked Picasa again today and noticed there were some more pictures uploaded from the Evo 3D. They can be seen here.

I was kinda thinking the same thing. Maybe improvements to the software will be made in the release version resulting in better quality. Either way, this trumps my crappy Samsung Moment camera!
It looks like the camera on the E3D really SUX! The pix don't look any better then ones taken from my old Blackberry Curve.
HTC build nice phones, but they need to really do something about their camera sensors/software. Don't they realize it's 2011 and not 1999?
This is the one area Samsung owns HTC.

I don't understand, in this day and age, how a camera in a phone is as bad as those pix look on Picasa!
Where does HTC even get their cameras from? It's like they went into a old junk drawer and found a bunch of 10+ year old camera sensors, so they decided to use them.
They say you can take 3D pix and video, but with a camera like that, you won't be able to tell what you took a pic or video of. It really makes me think the 3D part is really more a gimmick then anything else and any pic or video you take in 3D will be a joke.
WE dont even know if these really ARE from the 3d.

They are probably from Team Six's new Nokias.
From my soon to be Evo 3D
I would certainly trade the 3D part for a single high quality 5 megapixel camera on the new EVO. Oh, I'll throw in Sense too!

if you were going to give up 3d, wouldn't you trade it in for a 8mp camera instead of a single 5mp
Not if it the same sensor and lens in our current evo.

We have a 5 and 3mp setting in our cameras someone could have messed with the settings.

Where do you see that they are 3MP? I guess I'm blind...
just download the pics from the page, open them up in amost any viewer, right click on the image, check the properties, or info tab, and it will state PG86100 took the picture. It's the model number of the Evo 3d, so there's your proof. I doubt somebody would edit the EXIF information on a picture just to make the camera look this bad, but you never know who upped these pics either, could be a competitor.

Open one of the pics and on the right it says
2560×1440 pixels

=~ 3.5MP unless I wrong

man,all those reviews about the camera are looking pretty stupid right about now..Every pic i've seen from users have been above acceptable to me.If i tried this with my Evo 4G you would see grain in the blacks and it would have a purple-ish/blue tint to it...
Great pic man,thanks for sharing this with us

Oh man the 3D is taking way better pics than the 4G did. I'm very happy with it. The 3D is also a lot better than the "major" reviewers claimed.
I'm feeling like the reviews were actually bias, or they just received bad models because I am not getting crappy pictures and the 3D is amazing. I didn't expect it to be this good.
cool pic, nice quality
I cant wait for tomorrow morning..Im going to be a picture taking fool.....
Ths camera on the 3d dors priloduce amazing pic better then the 4g.

Huge dissapointment in camera

Hey people first off all I would like to say that I recently bought myself a new shiny S3 and so far love it. The one thing however that disapoints me is the quality of camera. I had an iP4s before this phone and I must say that it took much much better quality pics than S3 especially in low light situations. The difference in quality cannot be unseen, the pics are supernoisy even without zooming. So I'm asking, is it possible that I maybe got a defective camera on my phone? This fact really annoys me because I tend to use camera on my phone quite often.
I took this the other day - would you sat it is poorer quality that what your iPhone shot?
(Yes I am a greedy pig!)

theres been huge comparisons between the 2 cameras. Theres a thread on here that compares them in a bunch of different conditions and if i'm not mistaken the S3 edged out the 4s (sorry i dont have time to link it right now) .
GSMarena did a camera test S3 vs 4S vs OneX vs PureView and the results were (from best to worst) Pureview, S3, 4S, OneX
I guess it just depends on the way you take the pics but i have heard of some models shipping with bad camera modules... Could u post some pics maybe so that we have a comparison
Check the "pictures taken with your S3" thread.. if yours isn't taking pictures as well as the pics in that thread you may have a faulty camera. I've been nothing but impressed with the camera!

I checked that thread and it really looks like my camera is worse. I'm uploading a picture I took this morning and it really looks mediocre at least. The road is super noisy and the sky looks lie it's finger painted. Plus the overal detail of the buildings and cars is below average from what I seen in current smartphones.
Yeah the road is def way grainy and I see what your talking about

can we have more info on your picture? like iso, etc. i had similiar problems too, but found that with just the right adjustments its still a workable camera
Oh yeah? Well I have iso and everything else set to auto.What settings do you use?

basically i just turned anti shake and auto contrast off. that limits the max iso to 800. then you gotta play around with the scene settings~
Hello. I haven't used the camera much yet but i would have the iso off auto and set as low as possible. Image size at 8mp and quality set to superfine. That would be my starting point. The few photos i've taken so far didn't look rough like the one shown by op. Play with the settings and see if there's an improvement.
Some phones have Sony camera (Perfect, better that iPhone's one), but most phones have Samsung camera (Korean ****)
I was pleasantly surprised about the picture quality my SGS3 produces.
Then again I don't expect too much...
The camera is ok, its only a phone use a camera if u want high quality pics

my camera is fantastic. granted it wont take the place of a standalone. even videos in the house. people are like dude. its so clear. i think they did a great job :good:
the s3 camera is ok. i still think my htc sensation took better quality pictures. the htc sensation camera has more setting options than the s3. i do a lot of photo touching in post for print ads, with photos, using a professional camera but touching up photos from the s3 vs. my old htc sensation, i would have to say that photos taken with the sensation was much better to work with. the s3 is better with video recording. i do plan to shoot a 5min short film with this phone...just cause.

This forum got some good info on the s3 camera firmware, when I got my s3 and took some photos I thought the s3 camera was crap, then when I started reading some of the review and looking at the pictures I thought something must be wrong, I flashed a custom ROM(fox hound 1.4.4 with Franco kernel) its Seemed to have fixed the the problem...

Holy Crap, video and audio record really well

Seriously, I took this last night at my gig in Seattle. I was playing with a LOUD 15 piece Jazz Orchestra (Jazz Police) and recorded with the front facing camera. I'm really impressed with how it picked up everything. On the OG Evo, this would have sounded like, well, sh*t haha. Watch it on YouTube in HD if you want to hear the good quality audio/see the HD video
Dang getting your jazz on

Very good. If you tried this with an S3 you would have heard garbled noise. One of the reasons I chose this phone.
Did you start developing for Android because your sax playing was getting you too many chicks?
Nice groove, great playing and great recording.. I love the mic on this cell..picks up percussive sounds nicely, I get similar results recording guitar amps.. great job!

Why does the camera suck?

So I love this phone, but the camera really bugs me. Haven't had this poor of a camera since my G1. It takes wonderful still images, but anything else just forget about it. I'm hoping a mod comes to some how increase shudder speed, but not even sure that possible. What do you guys think? Is the camera lacking on your Note 2?
