Maybe you need to focus it!?! (Hold down the cspture button) And look for the settings about image quality.

It's focused and all the settings are maxed in quality, yet the picture looks like it's 1mp. You can see it's pixelated everywhere.

Took it apart, cleaned the lens. Recording quality is fine, same for camera free viewing around. After taking the photo quality seems drop in quality extremely. May try updating rom, camera firmware?
what firm are you?
if you are on the stock, try to reset settings in de camera app settings menu
or
downlaod a other camera app and test it if its is normal, if it isn't maybe hardware problems
I hope it helps

My camera is taking great pictures, but there is a long delay between shutter press and the screen returning to ready state. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a setting I have missed? Is there a better third party camera application with faster response times? I have had a number of Android phones and none have had this issue.

You have to go into advanced options and enable high resolution pictures, and there isn't a head focus, just a general focus... but if you're taking pics of something in motion, holy crap that does the trick. My note fired off 23 photos in 3 seconds.

Yes, And I don't think the camera was bad as the other guys mention above, It's a step up from our stock 2.3.6 camera.
I have installed a few camera apps, in addition to the stock camera app:
Fast Burst Camera
Paper Camera [awesome]
Camera 360
ICS 4.0 Camera
I keep the stock camera just for video etc., but find myself using paper camera the most.

Yes, I am also experiencing this abnormal clicking noise.
I just noticed that I lost the option to take pictures while recording video from the back camera, but am still able to take pictures while recording video from the front camera. I noticed this after I flashed a few ROMs, but restoring from a nandroid backup or even flashing back to stock with Odin does not work fix the problem. Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

If you turn stabilization on (anti shake) you lose the ability to take pics while recording video. You just have to turn anti shake off and then you should be good

When running camera 360 the screen seems to be out of wack. The image seems tilted and distorted. However, I when switching to the ffc and back it fixes the problem.
Anyone else have this issue? I'm on aokp m6 and the same thing happens on devil toast 0.74

Try using an updated version because it may have compatibility problems if you are using ICS.
The app kinda sucks anyway. But I think it's free and probably one of the better free ones. I users camera zoom fx, much nicer. But I always go back to the stock camera for some reason, got cool mods camera mod installed so it's a big improvement over htc's

I flashed the cool mods camera mod and compared to the camera 360. The pics do not appear as crisp and clear as with camera 360 .

Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
I can take the pic just fine. However, it is the preview that is distorted. It happens with Ucam, Camera360, and sometimes with Camera Zoom FX
EDIT* I believe it was the aokp rom I was on. I flashed sense 4.0 and no longer have the issue.
I keep reading about the lesser photo quality of CM/AOSP compared to stock but I can't really see it.
I've used stock LP, then Cloudy's 2.2, then Euphoria and to be perfectly honest I can't see it. I'm a terrible photo nut and enthusiast and made many many comparison shots, but to my eye, picture quality on CM/AOSP is nothing but great.
For a little context, I've just very recently switched to the G2, coming from Xperia Z1 and there the difference between stock and CM/AOSP was incredible. Stock was so so much better, however I can't say the same about the G2.
And I'm not using any fancy 3rd party camera apps, just Google's camera and I find picture quality to be stellar. Honestly... What's the deal?
Here at some shots taken with Euphoria and Google camera (and a clip-on macro lens, but that doesn't improve quality... It just magnifies) are they anything but great?
Sent from my LG-D802 using XDA Free mobile app
I have to agree with you here. I have strained my eyes multiple times across all sorts of apps and stock cameras, and I just cant really see a discernible difference.
If any difference, I think its mostly due to post processing done by the stock app and the colour corrections etc.
Nice, informative post this.
Those are all very good pictures. The quality is good but all of those photos were taken with good lighting. CM/AOSP really struggles to focus and give proper quality in low light.
what about front camera ?
and what about low light shooting conditions - from what I've heard, that's where stock shines

same for me, i think just "mental paranoia:good:"
Those pictures just amazing. How much post processing did you do?
Personally I find aosp cameras slow to focus and very slow between shots. I consistently miss shots especially little ones. That's why I just stick to stock and does the job nicely.
Other thing is video mode, on stock you can pause and continue recording and I find it very useful. And if am not mistaken only stock can use ois
Yeah, a few of those were taken in very good light, but some weren't. Also there is no processing of any sort in any of those shots.
And regarding low light conditions, quality is not bad at all. See these for instance - no noise, no artefacting, blacks are black like they're supposed to be.
Again, these are straight from Google camera, no processing of any kind.

Honestly, as far as good lighting goes AOSP and stock are very similar.
The most noticeable feature is the nightmode as stock has a higher maximum ISO/working HDR. There's the ported stock camera which does wonders in nightmode, but not so much for HDR.
Forgot to mention, I mean the most noticeable differences are in VERY dark areas, or a panoramic view of city lights at night.

There were a couple of different DPI versions, I have no idea which one is this. I'm assuming it's the stock 480dpi. I use a 360dpi and I have a 360dpi .apk if you need it.

Second one has a bit less color distortion.
Thats the Google camera on default settings. First one is ported stock, on default settings. However, things start to change when you begin to lower the ISO. Then you can see the stock camera IS superior. Lowering the exposure to -1/-2 on Google's camera helps with better low-light shots, but the stock one is clearly better.
