lol
it does work for video callling and taking pictures
only thing is there is banding (i.e lines across screen while taking pictures)
its mostly a voltage issue

How do you make it work?

If you want a better camera , I am sorry to say you will need to buy a stand-alone.
what dont you like about it? I think its pretty damn good.
Are you using a custom ROM? I know some of them mess with the camera in a bad way.
Coming from an iPhone 4 (which I loved taking pictures with) the GS2 is so much better. Especially when using an alternative camera app such as Camera Zoom FX.
Hell, the images look on par with pics taken with my fiancees 4s. The dof and fov loom better on the 4s. But, the gs2 has better color accuracy and sharpness. The flash is also much better.

You've gotta be joking me. User error I'd say. This camera is bar none probably one of the best you can get on a phone. Read the reviews and look at the sample photography its stunning...

As much as I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion, it would actually be beneficial in backing up your complaint with at least a little detail on the actual issues you're referring to.
Youre crazy!! This camera is best that my Sony camera!! Just LOVE iT

I just don't think it is any better than the captivates camera I thought well maybe if I look at the pics on the PC instead but still can't see a difference I wasn't saying the camera sucks I was saying I don't see how its better then the captivates

Define better... be more specific... what are you looking for?
Honestly, I've been a little disappointed with the picture quality in low light. In bright sunlight it is amazing.

It isn't better? So what's wrong with it? I agree that the camera app for the captivate was great.
But to complain about the one in this phone is like complaining about the 2012 Bentley, in that it's like the 2011's.
Dude! It's a freakin Bentley!!
Just because it's similar doesn't mean it needs to be replaced. I think it is a great app, better than the captivate's.

One thing ive noticed in the camera settings is when i try to select an option, a lot of the time it is unresponsive and i have to press it again or even a few times to get it to take. Has anyone else ever had this happen to them?

Yeah, this happens to me as well. I rarely change the settings, but it is kind of annoying.
i like the camera on this phone, nice colors and clarity.
Well the main difference between a 5 MP camera on the Captivate and the 8 MP on this phone is the size of the picture, nothing more. And yeah, the Captivate had an epic camera already, and at such high numbers, I guess the jump isn't that high...

The Captivate did have an excellent camera, however taking presentable quality indoor shots under
normal lighting conditions day or night was a impossibility due to the Captivate's lack of flash.
(not to mention that outdoor dawn or night shots of people were impossible without flash)
I have to agree that i'm disappointed in the camera. A few things i notice:
- the captivate seems to handle incandescent and "soft white" CFLs a lot better.
- while it's nice having a flash.. it's just too bright. wish there was a way to dim in in software
- when i make EV adjustments: there seems to be almost no noticeable difference between 0 and +2. -2 how ever is a fairly drastic change (as it should be).
- when set to spot meter on the captivate, i could aim at the darker parts of a subject to get the image brighter.
- the front camera seems to deal with warm lights better than the main.
So far, i suspect that there might be a max shutter speed somewhere and that's why doing +EV doesn't work in low light.
When i have time, i will try various test shots.
One test i should also try is to use the digital zoom, so the flash is farther away from the subject.
Another thing i notice is i feel the screen is overly saturated and dark compared to the captivate when both are set to auto.
the only thing I agree with is that the LED flash is very bright at times. Otherwise, the camera is top notch. If you need a better camera, get a standalone.

This phone is great except for two things: one is the locked bootloader (I think that's already fixed) and the other is that this camera is the worst I've ever had on any phone. Does anyone know any settings/apps/scripts/zip files to improve photo/video quality? I guess the speaker is rather quiet too but that's not too big of a problem
Sent from my LG-E970 using xda app-developers app
You should try reading through the subforms, considering you only "think" that the bootloader has been unlocked (by devs).
There's a guide on how to unlock the bootloader only a few topics below me. Regardless, there's no topics on pictures

Theres already a topic for pictures here in the General section of AT&T LGOG

I've noticed setting the shot to "Night Mode" does help when using flash in the dark.. gets rid of the ugly yellowish tint.
I'm also very interested in finding if there's an app that will improve the photos on this phone. It's the only bad thing about it for me. I couldn't find anything useful on these forums.

Smart Shutter
Switch Camera Mode to Smart Shutter. This takes better pics, and the responsiveness is way faster.
Still trying to figure out a way to have that is the default setting.
I came from a Lumia 900 and while we're not gonna get into everything else that phone had wrong about it I will say that the camera was more than adequate. Now on my LGOG I have an orangey yellowish tint to all my pictures...and when I put the flash to auto the phone never seems to think it needs flash. Any tips for taking better pics on this thing? I tried smart shutter too and that hasn't done much for me.

Sounds defective. Take it back.... none of the above...pics are on par with gs3 slightly better in my eyes...

New to this forum but love the phone hate the quality of the pics.
I understand its set for 4mg pics but can be taken up to 8m.
Has anyone had luck with apps or fixes to give you over all better quality?
Thank you
Isn't the 4MP limitation due to the hardware?

It sure is! Have seen some mods to get it back to 8 but looking for more of a simple fix.
Then to that add a major marketing campaign that 4m is going to create a better pic...equals terrible pictures, focus and blur..
You must have a faulty device then. Because my quality is excellent. Picture was taken in auto mode.

I've been very happy with my picture quality. Sometimes it's like higher resolution for more zoom, but everyone I know has been impressed with how my pictures look.
