well guys, after thinking a while i decide to buy the Iblazer flash for our beast, and if olny is good a half of what they say, that can resolve the only negative aspect i see in our bigbestbeast
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B2uZwDGRgAKONjdfSHdSc3NYVkE&usp=sharing
theu ship to me in this month so hope to have it in last genuary
any other have place an order?
As a photography fan, I would like to see what you get with this flash so I am looking forward to your images
Been following the iblazer. Will also be interested in how it performs.
Dont forget to give it a review once you have it mate!
as soon as i get it i'll sure review.
In the meantime i send a mail to their suport cause the official beta app is incopatible with our device (hope cause the new 4.3 update) und also cause i've the qx-10 lens, asking if the iblazr app will support in the future this lens.
if the official app will support the qx-10/qx100 lens, this small gadget will be the best idea for taking good photos, anyway will be a massive upgrade even with standard Ultra camera
I'll review it later, got mine today but I'm not with the ZU atm! Working fine with my phone (Xiaomi MI2). The iblazr App is still very buggy!

Received mine today. Unfortunately the iBlazer Beta App is not compatible with the Xperia Z Ultra at the moment...
I copied the app manually to my ZU now, it's starting but not turning the iblazr on!
If you manually turn the iblazr on you can do good pictures but the light will come far from the right side (if you keep the iblazr plugged in the audio port)
We need to be patient..
App is now available and working great!
I suggest anyone who got the free diffuser bundled to use it as it will make the effect of the light coming from the right side a bit less intensive!
Got comparison pictures attached
yes the app is working the devoloper send me now a mail.
now it start but i haven't my iblazer yet so i cannot test it
and good news for the qx-10/100 sony lens, the devoloper are working for the possibility to use iblazr with them.
so if all go in the right way we'll have the best phablet with the best camera fully working
Could someone tell me, if your USB Charing Cables are short, too?
in the videos one can see a very long flexible cable, all I got is short thingy.

http://spreadsheets.google.com/viewform?formkey=dERiNkdJY2pBQnQxWF9sYUpTcGo0S3c6MA
the page here is talking about fring with video calls.....can any one confirm this..
You had better ask McKebapp, he has pulled his X10 apart
But I doubt it.....
Bloke
Noooooooooooo!
No, there is no front camera!! No No No!
but the other 2 devices has front cameras........and i dont understand y this device is added to it.......
X10 has just one cam! I've tried and frings uses that...so no front camera!
i will get back my x10 tomorrow....will test it and confirm.......
i hope its true and i should be the first one to tell u all
i have got an email from early access team of fring with a test fring apk.....
i dont have the phone with me right now....tomorrow evening i will test it when i get my phone back.....
Hello,
I’m glad to introduce: fring 2.1.0.17 for Android.
Before you install the attached version, please uninstall the current one and wait 2-3 minutes before you connect again.
This version includes the following features:
- Video Calls for more Android devices (Sony Ericsson X10, Dell Streak).
- fring should be running smoother on Froyo.
- Some other improvements.
We'll be glad to get your impressions, comments, suggestions, bug reports etc.
Thanks,
Tom
Early-Access team @fring.

I've tested it. I can confirm no front camera. Just uses the main camera, which is kinda useless.

No Guys, I'm sorry...
There is no front cam installed.
Seach for my "Upskirt Shots" Thread.
If you find a frontcam, please post the lottery numbers for coming Saturday

i m also confusing with this. arent we all knew that x10 have no front camera since they first day published?
I saw a video by CoolSmartPhone.com on youtube with a white x19 with a front facing camera. S o n y Ericsson Xperia X10 - The on-screen keyboard and dialing
A lot of salespeople saw the proximity sensor and assumed it was a cam... I think that's where this rumor started
there is no front camera....
i have tried using video chat apps which use front camera..they said no front camera detected.
maybe the latest fring version lets u use main camera.
i dont miss it though..
my bro has iphone4 ..he keeps facetiming with his GF...
Facetime is lame. What's the point if you can't make 3g video calls? If you're at home might as well use your laptop/desktop that has a better screen + better quality
so, this is?

Front Camera
There are X10 knock-offs floating around on Madeinchina.com (from the site just do a search on X10 and you'll see exactly what i'm talking about)
Many of these knock-off's have dual sim card slots, front and rear facing camera's, radio, even built in television.
However I can't confirm if any of them are using the Android OS. Its possible that where ever this confirmation came from originally - that the person was using one of these knock-offs.
Also to note - the camera resolution on these knock-offs are considerably lower than the true X10. Usually about 4mps for the rear camera, and 1.5mps for the front facing.
Screen size is usually a bit smaller. And I would imagine the resolution of the screen wouldn't be HD.
I have though made my decision. The next cellphone I buy will probably be an android based knock-off. Why? If I'm not going to get support from the manufacture anyways what the heck is the point in paying the high price. When I say support I mean continued updates and upgrades. All the work is now being done by the public - not the manufacture. I'd rather save the money by not buying the name brand, and donating to the developers who make this stuff work.

Out of curiosity, on the X10 what does the Proximity sensor do?
I have the message LED's that light up, that I noticed. The blue LED for facebook messages. is this a different LED to indicate something else?
I was browsing around and I came in front of this, bascially its a LED flash solution for phones and tables, looks promising when you think about the lack of a flash for the sony z ultra, even though they say its a great night time camera.
What do you guys think? would this be worth it??
iblazr - The LED Flash for Smartphones and Tablets

If I need great dark shots, I would buy a Sony DSC-WX300 and connect it through WiFi and Sony PlayMemories to my Ultra. It is a small, compact camera that is easy to carry. With the PlayMemories app, it can be remote controlled by the Ultra - i.e. the Ultra is used as a viewfinder and shutter. That way, the camera can be put down in a stand or on something for a steady night shot while it is remote controlled.
I have considered this solution and think it is great.

im looking at it from a point view of carrying a small key chain attached flashlight that doubles as a flash for the Z Ultra when we need it, Would make things a lot easier.
I read about the iblazr a little while ago. Looks very promising. I only truly need/use flash for a flashlight, but I think i might just look for an app to make the screen completely white lol. If that fails, then I guess a simple plugin like iblazr. But for now I'm still waiting on more exposure for this phone before I decide to even buy it.

Dang, are you AND Jamie thinking about getting the ZU?? That would be insanely awesome! For sure this community would benefit from both your contributions to development (just like with the OG Note).

if i can come up with the money i will be i want the LTE model so ill have to wait since its on back order from negri so when it becomes available ill hopefully have my pennies saved. but yes if i get you can count on PACman!
That iblazr is pretty awesome, I'm not a fan of attachments, but if it works THAT much better than built in flash, I can go with that. Thanks for letting us know!
Does with work with any camera app though or do you have to use their specific ones?
Kinda bad if you can't use the default sony camera with the iblazr...
Can anyone confirm?
What about?

That will be my solution too

I love this phone so far, and I actually think the camera app is good, but I love my brother's pixel camera app. Is there a generic APK that would work on this or would it have to be built specifically for this phone? I am coming from a Moto G5 plus, so this camera is night and day better.
I stopped buying nice phones, because of the work I do, I break the screen or the battery life degrades to the point I need a new phone every year, and I don't like paying a lot of money for phones. I use my phone for internet, email, a handful of news apps and a camera.
Thanks in advance.
Yes go to the Nokia 7 plus forum, there's a thread which will let you know the 3 you can install 2 are based on 6.1 and 1 on 5.3.. They all work great, it all depends on the quality your looking for.. I myself am running the latest MGC release and arnova 5.3 beta 2..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...7-plus-google-camera-hdr-zsl-t3775956/page120
I am using V8.3build-5.1.018.177624777 and its a really nice app. I am looking forward to a stable 6.version with night vision (or whatever its called).
I got this one working on a 7.1. GCam-5.1.018-Pixel2Mod-Arnova8G2-V8.3b1. I didn't really get to evaluate picture quality but the app worked. A couple of others I had tried either wouldn't open or froze.
In the spot for the Umidigi power, at the 00:59 is possible to see a new foto application (image capture attached), with new Panorama, and Beauty modes.
I think the F1 Play has those modes too.

It doesn't. it has timelapse/video/photo/pro/bokeh/slow motion
The app on f1 play and seemingly the focus are pretty awful.

I just ordered mine. Going to get it next week. I've heard that they fixed some of the camera issues with the recent updates, I hope it doesn't suck too much. It's supposed to have a 12/48mp Samsung chip. If I don't like it I might get the S3 pro, Which has the Sony Chip.
It figures, the way my luck is I probably picked the one model that has something wrong with it. Haha.
The Umidigi power looks cool. What camera chip is it using?

As far as I'm aware, I'm on the latest 5/22 update. The focus is still driving me nuts. Seems to be stuck at wide open as opposed to focusing on where I tell it to.

I hope somebody creates a fully working gcam. Open Camera works a lot better than the stock app but doesn't have bokeh or slow etc. 3rd party apps are locked out from accessing the 2nd lense because of how Android handles stuff through the API.
Camera2.api is functional already on the F1 Play, so all we need to a modded gcam.
A new camera app arrives with the last firmware update! It has a Night mode, AI scenes detection, FaceCute, etc.
I wanted to buy DJI OSMO Mobile 6, but it seems that it lacks support even for S22 Ultra, so I suppose they will never make it work with S23 Ultra.
So what else can I buy?

See, it depends on what you really need, I actually am using that currently for my s23 ultra, but only because I just needed something with stabilisation and something to hold my phone for still shots. It's sad the hardware doesn't work directly with the camera app, they have their own which is pretty lackluster, however all the features worked related to their product in their app.

Can you specify what 'all the features worked related to their product in their app' means? I thought that S23 Ultra is not supported at all?
Is it possible to shoot 4k 60fps stabilized video?
Also is it possible to shoot photo (not video) panorama handheld?
Can you please post some video on which is visible how stable the phone is?
Thanks.
You misunderstood me, the features that they advertise do work, but most of it is because it's all done with their tripod + app. That's also the problem however, since their app is pretty lackluster, yes it'll do everything they said it can, but you have no control or options, for example I can use only 1080p 60fps recording. What I'm trying to say is that it can do all the stuff they say but you're only limited to what they offer in their app (Device support, yes it'll support any phone theoretically, however the options are limited to the support of the device), which isn't a lot, and you lose out all the stuff from the stock camera app. However if you just need a tripod that stabilises then it does that regardless of any further interaction, works out of box since it all happens on the tripod itself, however you'll need the app anyway to update the firmware of the tripod. I'll show you some photos from in the app when I get home from work.

Oh I see. I need a tripod with stabilization.
I think I'll buy it from Amazon to see how it works. I can return it if I don't like it.
I'd appreciate if you post some photos and videos.

Exactly what I did, bought it from there, decided that it fulfills the basic necessities and kept it, like you said you can always return it. In terms of stabilisation itself it's actually not too bad in my opinion, however this is my first one ever so I can't say anything more besides that. And yeah I will.
