Hey
In all the reviews i haven`t seen a demo of the Panorama function in the camera app.
Do you know a good video demo?
How is the resolution? Is it megapixel like or something low (e.g. 1800*240)?
I've got one here 1968x576
and another 1808 x 400
smallest dimension pretty much depends on whether I took the panorama phone up or phone on it's side.
there needs to be a hack to make full res panoramas!
Is someone already doing it?

Hi there - bad news for you I'm afraid, there is no panorama function. You can probably download an app for that.

There is.
Camera> Settings> Shooting Mode> Panorama
I believe the resolution is set at 640 x 480 in panoramic view.

A few days ago, I saw the "Sony Panorama Beta!" thread that allows other devices to use it. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work on Atrix as the app works only on NEONs. I searched for other alternatives and found out that the BlurCamera.apk from Droid X supports panoramic pictures. I downloaded the original file from here http://www.droidforums.net/forum/92...ix-update-panorama-assist-etc.html#post887590
The app actually worked without modification but I modified it for 2 reasons:
1. The package name is com.motorola.Camera which is the same as my stock Camera/Camcorder app and it is not as simple as replacing the stock Camera app in /system/app. I had to reset the data partition before my Atrix recognized it.
2. It has a lower resolution than the stock app. maximum resolution is 3MP only.
To avoid conflict, I changed the package name to “com.panorama.Camera” and the app name to “Cam-norama” (to distinguish it from the Camera app). I also removed the Launcher icon for the Camcorder since the stock Camcorder is better.
I experienced FCs when I opened "Settings" and "Switch to video" but it seems to happen only the first time after installation.
:::: By the way, the stock OlympusCamera.apk can be modified to take panoramic pictures but when I tried to start recording, I got an FC. The maximum resolution for panorama is also set at 3MP.
2011-06-29: Added BlurCamera5MP.apk to allow 5MP panorama. The highest resolution I got was 1889px height for a 2-frame shot compared to 1499px in 3MP mode. But the more frames you capture, the resolution gets lower. It should still be better than the 3MP version though.
I tried to set the panorama maximum as 5MP Widescreen but it seems like it takes lower resolution even if I select the 5MP as the current setting so I finally made it to allow 5, 3, 2 & 1 MP only.
I got it to install (and got the first time FC like you described), however I cannot find how to set it to take panoramic photos. I can take video and photos just fine.
EDIT: I'm silly, have to hit menu and then camera modes...

Just so everyone knows, I use an app called Photaf and it makes panorama pics awesome!!! You can pay for a pro version that does hi-def! Worth every cent, the pics are great! Check one out!

+1 for Photaf.....although I will never complain about a free alternative.

I have to try both apps. That way I got two options.

Can anybody tell me "how it is faster and better than photaf"? Just wondering the major differences, not that it's so difficult to install this, won't have my Atrix until Tuesday though so just wondering.

Unless photaf has changed since I last used it a few months ago, it takes forever for photaf to stitch the photos together, and you have to really have a steady hand, otherwise it looks like crap.
Maybe I missed a setting, but I didnt like photaf. The best pano app Ive used is the one built into the SGS camera app

thats one of the few things I miss about the captivate, its panoramic feature
The app has a guide to help you take the next shot. It is also fast at stitching the pics together.
The app is great! i took a pic from my balcony. This took 4 shots. The far end pic on the right is my satellite. I didnt realize that I would hit it.

I accidentally pressed cam-orama camera icon while my phone was connected to my pc. When I unplugged the phone and tried the app, it reverted back to the old camera app. I tried restarting and it was still the same. I reinstalled the .apk and it was still the same. I clicked the cam-orama app again in the drawer and it worked. Perhaps this is a bug. It still works good and I posted the 2nd shot above after that bug that I encountered.
this works great! Thanks! Do you think higher-res photos are possible?
is it possible to apply any fix for old droid/milestone family too?

I dont know if it works in milestone but it's from moto too so it might. It's pretty safe to try as it doesn't change any system file.

thanks so much! works great! Have been jealous of the Droid crowd for having this as a stock feature.

I've updated the first post to add a 5MP version.
Hey have you tried this app?
https://market.android.com/details?id=rubberbigpepper.lgCameraPro&feature=search_result
They say is a better camera app than the stock camera app, I have tried on void#forever but I think I couldnt set it correctly because forced closes..and other issues
So any of you use it? What do u think, is better than the default app..? Why
Thanks!
i use the free version and it works fine, i dont know any other cam apps that allows remap of the search button as shutter so this is what i use, currently using it on void #forever with no major issues, tho i think something may have broken zoom (might be CMSettings), but i think its just digital zoom anyway?
Using camera 360 full version... Love the app and its effects.
any other opinion?
well thanks you. holymolys how have u set the app settings?
I prefer stock app

+1 it's one of the best camera apps
I prefer stock app, too.
vignette is also a very nice choice as well. imo the paid version is well worth the money.
the lgcamera app is the best for recording videos. you can change the sound to acc and you get crispy clear sound on your video. and you can change the format of the video too. for photos i use the stock one
camera 360 is the best ... and its HDR effect is awesome..... it removes the dullness of the stock camera..... just try it....

LGCamera is THE best . Have alots of settings . And work video recording at 20fps , not 18 stock .
The default app included in Void #Forever allows you to change the shutter to a key. I prefer it over the apps here =D

Guys i have some question in Camera 360:
1. Whats the Diff between Manual focus and pre focus?
2. And there are an array of settings, under the icon (P in a camera) like stabilizer,2grid,4grid,dizziness etc
Anyone knows abt it
camera 360 has better performance than stock camera but i don't need all it effects.
Has anyone edited the stock camera app to record videos at high fps.??
like 720p with 30fps will be nice Is it possible .??

I think thats impossible xD
I have the three apps for camera: default from void, LgCamera and 360Camera.
The first is good for photos, but usually they are very "black" and I have to increase exposure.
The second one made me a lot of boots and issues... I cant set it correctly
About 360camera...I dont like thoose effects, I only want normal photos xD. And each time I want to use it..I have to click two or three times on some buttons for set the camera working. On the others, you click on camera app and its done, you can make photos since that moment.

No way !!!!!
even though the processor can encode upto 720x480 @ 30fps but the camera hardware outputs max 640x480 @18fps so 640x480 @18fps is maximum ....
Some of my reading implies that there are third party camera apps that provide higher quality images than the Mororola app. I have played around with FX Camera Zoom and it seems to be OK. In this forum's august opinion, what is the best camera app for the highest quality images ?
The second question is: can the camera shutter button default be changed to default to another app?
I only use FxCamera and I love it. The only good/bad is manual upload to FB or Google, but I'm cool with that. The real reason I switched is the timer as I did not have many pictures of myself!
As for your second question, no clue! sorry!

I like procapture. To get the full 8mp youll need the paid version though. And no, the camera button mapping is built into the kernel itself. A third party app wont change it.

Camera Zoom FX I find the images and the options to be far superior to the stock app.
I use Camera Zoom FX and I use more Camera 360 Ultimate.

Camera 360 does have nice hdr options
Try Vignette as a camera app.
Try Autodesk's Pixlr o matic or Instagram for post processing.

Man the camera can shoot videos and click images as high as your mobile screen supports it..so limitation is that the scree cant support higher res so the camera functionality is limites and there isnt much u can do about it...however try so apps from play store which may help u click better images
Press that thanx button if helpful !!

Well the camera is what it is you cannot modify it to increase megapixels.But what you can do is edit the media_profiles.xml file to make your camera shoot uncompressed photos with larger quality.

Hi I'm looking for a camera app that can take super resolution pictures i.e. a 12mp phone outputs a 42mp image. I've used one in IOS but can't find one for Android. Any ideas?
Thanks!
