is it just me or does the camera on this phone suck?
there is a huge delay before the shutter actually takes the picture, there's no option to tile my photo library so i can find photos easier and there's also no option to "share" so i can attach pics to e-mails or upload to facebook.
is there a better option?

Yes. Buy a camera.
I've noticed all cell phone cameras (at least on the phones I've owned) have that shutter lag issue. However, my gallery view tiles the pictures and a long press on a picture gives me the ability to share/edit/print. Also in gallery view there is a share icon on the bottom (2 arrows pointing up to the left and right). Yet when a picture is selected, the menu doesn't allow sharing, so I can only share from the gallery view.
Now, that is all stock. I don't know if there is a better gallery type app or not.
Also, you can set the shutter speed. I leave mine on auto because I don't know what the hell I am doing (read: I'm not a photographer) but perhaps there is a setting you can change to increase shutter speed? That's what ISO is, right?
Anyway, I think the camera is very comparable to other cell cameras. I have a really nice Canon point-n-shoot 8mp camera for more intense camera moments.
^^^ In all seriousness.
If you tap the picture it will bring up options. One of them is to share. Pressing menu will bring up another set of options

well my advice would be to try other phones out and you will see that the evo3d has a pretty good camera out of all the phones out today. NOT ONE PHONE OUT WILL EVER BE PERFECT... and if you want to make a thread bashing the phone you obviously chose to buy without trying out or researching kinda makes you look dumb
Yes. It sucks that this phone is pretty much. AMAZING in everything except the camera. The camera blows.

So since the original camera app by SE is beyond retarded by compressing 8MP pictures to 4MP sizes and below what camera app do you guys use?
So far the best I've come across among the free apps is Camera360. It doesn't compress images as much if you set it to 90% quality giving you a 2-3MB pictures when set to 8MP and 90% quality (though I played with some settings and now it's only creating 1.2-1.6MB pictures, but it's still noticeably better than stock) so I guess I need to try the paid apps next.
Anyways I was just wondering what does everyone else use in an attempt to get the most out of the great 8MP sensor on the Neo?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
really?
is this when enabeling something or zooming in?
or just when taking normal pictures....
Go put em on PC, you won't find a single one above 1MB regardless of your settings. If you set it to 2MP you get a picture that's 150kb-290kb. 6MP gets you a 500-700kb pic. The Arc and as far as I know all SE phones are affected by this "feature"/bug
If I take a 6MP pic with out point and shoot dediacted 6MP camera it's usally 2.3-3.4MB big.
If I take a 5MP pic with my Nokia Navigator I get a 2.3MB-3.5MB pic.
In other words SE is compressing the 8MP pic to WAAAAAYYYY below the size it should be.
Might be true, but for most things, you won't notice the compression.
I use the stock camera app and Vignette, mainly for the effects. It has 84 effects. There's also a demo.
I'll try out Camera 360 aswell.
You'll notice it the second you zoom into any pic you've taken on PC. The quality is then barely better than a 2MP pic.

just took a picture in Vignette, quality superfine, 8mp. It's 5,99mb. Mind. is. blown.
just go to filestube.com and search for vignette or buy it in the market. Also just tested the speed to make a photo from the homescreen. Stock app was a second slower than Vignette, camera360 was 3 seconds slower. Vignette takes a picture and processes it on the background, so you can take another picture right after another.
Vignette doesn't do normal pics though?
Right I've been testing Camera Zoom FX, Vignette, Camera360 and the stock cam and in my opinion Camera360 takes the best pictures because it has superior image stabilization to Vignette (unless I just haven't found anything), then Camera Zoom FX and lastly the stock cam.
The stock cam captures much less extra detail than the others.
Basically since Camera360 is the only free one I recommend everyone tries it. Watch out though, if you set it to save 100% it compresses it's images the same way the stock cam does but if you set 90% you get the best this app can take.
This includes any Arc owners that come across this thread.

Yeah I found that. Still can't find anything for image stabilisation though.
I seriously think Camera360 Free takes the best pictures.
LoL, i never needed an image stabilization,
Even if i enabled it in stock SE cam app, i noticed no difference
Vignette is best snapper and the best editor(especially when editing in full resolution)

Have you used a pirated version or the paid (or the trial). Maybe you could try some other versions. You can also find older versions.
i just snap picture using normal camera and edit it later using apps like picsay, picplz, photo enhancer, etc ^_^ so far so good

3.1 MP is standard. There should be a button (second one from the right) with the resolution in it (e.g. 3.1MP) if you click on it, you should be able to choos up to 8MP.
I can't get Vignette to take good pics, they end up even worse than stock despite being 5 times as big (I'm talking about shakyness/preservation of small details). Camera360 Free consistently takes better pics though. Unless SE fix this issue I reckon I'm gonna keep using Camera360 Free for all my still shots that don't require zooming or vids.
Not sure if you guys have seen this yet but it works on our CDMA. Image quality much improved. Love the additional options and 3D picture capture works. I couldnt find another thread so if this is double post I apologize. Apk also available for non rooted phone it looks like.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302943
Igor has done great work with this port. Dont forget to thank him if you found this useful.
EDIT: Panoramic and burst doesnt seem to work but the other options are a welcome addition.
Update
0.11
1. Codec H264 is automaticaly used for 3D video recording.
2. Flash is always turned ON if flash mode is "ON" (when taking picture). It is very useful to see what you are shooting when taking picture in low light conditions.
0.10
1. Added option to set 50HZ/60HZ antibanding.
2. Removed video format selection. It doesn't needed! 3GP and MP4 are just a containers. Video encoding bitrate is the only important to reduce file size.
3. Added codec selection (H264/MPEG)
4. Enabled video encoding bitrate selection for 720p and 540p
5. Added more bitrate choices.
0.09 - removed because it always saves video into 3GP container
1. 3GP/MP4 video format selection
2. Added Camera version to Tutorial title
3. Universal flash script rewritten
4. Added autobuilder to sources in git
Not the best subject but the quality are superb. No flash just florescent lighting

On the thread it does say not tested so I'm not sure what the results would be and also says if you have FC issue then try the 1920x1080 version. Have you tried the other version? Unless those apk are GSM specific then that could be why they arent working on your device.
Edit: Looking at this post it seems there are libraries that also need to be modified so I think this may only work for rooted phones.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19321859&postcount=244
I just tested this out, everything seems to work correctly on the most recent version of 1920, except fastburst of course, but just read the post and you'll see.
As for 2048 it does indeed force close after taking a 3D picture.
Overall this does work well, i'm not sure if I like it better than stock though as of now.
Just tried this out on non rooted phone .2048 apk installs a seperate camera app .not sure what does and doesn't work coz I'm the type to just open the camera and take a snap...gotta say clarity is much better and also the picture from the front facing camera is also a lot better

Thats a good question but even if it did and you dont happen to like that rom it prob wont matter. I rather have it as flashable so I can flash it on any rom I choose. Just my opinion
Once zsl drivers make it over, I'm pretty sure every ROM is going to include this camera.
you guys may want to go over here. its listed in the GSM but it works also for the CDMA.
[MOD] HTCCamera from Amaze 4G(rooted stock rom ready,2048x1152/1920x1080 in 3D), v0.8
i have it on my 3d...but they are still trying to work out some of the bugs.
i cant wait till its working 100%
Two problems:
-The highest video quality that I have to select is 1280*720 (even though I downloaded the 2048*1152 and have read people getting 1080p recording)
-When I press the button to switch to the front camera, it still does my back camera, but the picture is upside down.
Edit: Ok, for problem one I found that 1080p is only available for 3d recording. I just wish I could adjust the bps for 720 recording like you can for 1080p.
Problem 2 persists.
Agree the amaze camera is well amazing lol

Hello!
UPDATE: (Complying the Requests)
"How to take good photos with your LG Optimus One (P500) [But it works with ALL PHONES!]"
FAQ:
1 - Which Camera App I use to take nice photos?
The Stock Camera App is the best to take sharp photos! (as well as the CyanogenMod native cams)
I recommend ProCapture as an nice alternative for Stock Camera. (It has several config options)
2 - What are the settings to take nice photos?
Always set the Picture Size the higher resolution possible! In the case of Optimus One set resolution on "3.2M Pixels", set the Picture Quality on "Super Fine", no Color Effect, Flicker Reduction on "Automatic" and NEVER! NEVER use Zoom! (because digital zoom is CRAP! Unless your phone has Optical Zoom!)
Other factors:
1) Ilumination:
* To take photos by day, set White Balance on "Daylight"
* To take night photos (or lowlight) set White Balance on "Cloudy".
2) Distance from your goal:
* To take Mid-Range photos like people portraits or big objects, set Focus on "Normal" or "Automatic".
* To take Landscape photos, set focus on "Normal" or "Infinity".
* To take Macro photos (very close photos) or small objects, set Focus on "Macro".
3) Exposure:
If necessary, adjust the Exposure of your Camera to achieve better results in dark ambients. *I don't recomment to set Exposure more than +8 or the picture will be very noisy.
TIPS
1) If you like to make Macro Photos like me, improvise a place or object to not move the camera while taking the photo and set Timer on capture options to reduce the Blur. (so you can use a flashlight to illuminate the object with your hands if necessary).
2) Have preference to "hold" the camera button until the object becomes focused and the square target becomes green, if it turns red, slide your finger to the camera center to cancel the photo and try again. (this avoids blurring photos)
APPS RECOMMENDATIONS
1) ProCapture (Nice Camera App with all configurations that you'll need!)
2) Pixlr Express (Best App to adjust photos and to add Filters, Effects, Overlays and Borders on photos). * Try the "Auto Fix" option, it has shown me great results!
3) Afterfocus (Awesome App to make Focus adjusts like as if they were taken on DSLR Professional Cameras!)
* sorry about my english, if I made some gross grammatical errors, please correct me! (pm-me)

Well.. I set the exposure according to the brightness of where I'm taking the picture, I set focus to "MACRO", so I improvise a way to keep the phone quiet and......... CLICK! I take the photo! =D
Later I use Pixlr Express to adjust brightness/contrast or put filters! Some photos are beautiful when you do bokeh/focus using After Focus app too.
I'll see if I find courage to make a detailed tutorial! lol

I can only speak for myself. All my shots taken with the official Samsung camera app. If I apply a filter, I only use apps on my Alpha. For those shots I used a filter in Camera360. The only other editing apps I use are Adobe Photoshop Express, VSCO Cam and Snapseed. All android apps, and really only a few filters.
Thanks for your explanation gavinfabl!

Only modification i have done is cropped and sharpened the first pic in picasa (it is called google photos or something) app. rest of pics are taken with stock camera app, because it seems to choose shutter speed and ISO more adequately than other apps. If someone knows app, that would prefer longer shutter over higher ISO please suggest.

Only modification i have done is cropped and sharpened the first pic in picasa (it is called google photos or something) app. rest of pics are taken with stock camera app, because it seems to choose shutter speed and ISO more adequately than other apps. If someone knows app, that would prefer longer shutter over higher ISO please suggest.

Thanks for the detailed information.
You can try to use "DSLR Camera" and "ProCapture" each of one best photography apps in the store (in my opinion).

]Toms95 I just got my Alpha and not an expert you may turn on
Picture Stabilization because it appears to
leave shutter open longer primarily for low light shots but can be used other ways.
I think the trick may be to put phone down or Tripod mini etc and voice actuate the Camera to avoid motion on longer exposures.
Everyone else REALLY nice , sharp photos !
Some think it is the exact same sensor as S5 but lowered to 12 megapixels in firmware.
Is it sharper than S5 ?
Here is an example of using picture stabilization AND moving exposure up to +2 for a night shot in Miami Beach- it was much darker than it appears here and I rested phone on Latte Cup and voice activated shutter because this is a long exposure ( HDR must be off to go up to +2 exposure) .

I used the picture stabilization, but thanks for the tip. :good:
Some pics of riga
Gavin I see you do great work with phone cams , cameras, etc etc.
With Alpha are you using a Tripod to get it so sharp and possibly using picture stabilization for longer exposures in daylight even though not needed ?
Or are the filters sharpening in edits ?
Thanks.

No tripod needed with the phone. It's got a good camera to start off with.
Some say Alpha is same Sensor as S5 but clocked down to 12 megapixels in firmware.
Do you think S5 is more detailed and sharp than Alpha ?
And will S6 be in your hands soon so I can get your opinion on that one ?
I'm testing it, and it's working like a charm, everything works, including slow motion video at 120fps and Lens blur. It can be installed on rooted and unrooted devices.

Nope. There is no Wide lens on Google Pixel
Sample pics
I tested it and it really makes the G6 camera live up to its true potential! Cant believe the difference http://imgur.com/a/blrWe
For anyone that also uses Norton, there is a conflict and Norton will flag it as maleware. You can't "trust" it and you can't dismiss the Norton notification.
Everything works for me except photosphere. It will capture a photosphere image, but it's distorted and stretched.
Despite that, the HDR+ function works so good, and I think it looks better than the LG camera.
I've tested it, result: both are good, but LG more real and google HDR+ more punchy. However I fiind LG calera better...
No matter how much 3rd party camera offers, only stock camera takes better picture.
thanks for this post! wouldn't know otherwise, i did test it and its pretty awesome!
Especially more realistic colours in low light if you can keep the camera stable. Not to be used for moving subjects.
In Daylight, the G6's camera is great by itself so i probably won't use it in those scenarios.

Left is LG Camera, Right is Google camera w/ HDR+
Real life looked very close to how the Google camera processed the image.
@dkimmortal that comparison is great! Can't believe how Google app made a difference there!
Here's my quick comparison also, difference is night and day! What's wrong with LG?
Testing it so far seems its shocking in low light? Images are so noisy, poor colour.
Sounds great, but can't even get it to install on my G6 (european).
I Download the apk, click ist to install, but just can't hit the "install" button, just "cancel".
Of course "other sources" are allowed in settings. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!

WHOA! i was gonna ask "is it any good", but that's a pretty clear example of "yes"
for those of you with it installed on your phone, any quirkiness like battery drain, etc.?
Someone know a tips for activate the wild lens please ?

This camera is Google's (pixel camera to be more precise) and the phone it was made for has only one lens, so I dont think there is a way to get the other lens working (unfortunately)

You may have some app that have screen overlay on (draw over other apps) like screen rotation or f.lux. Find it and disable that permission when install this.
Tried it today in low light and its a significant improvement. Not sure about daylight so will look at that as well. Obvioulsy only works with one lens.
Mine keeps crashing sometimes when I take a photo - I think it might be due to setting the resolution at 16:9 (9.7mp) resolution. Missed a great shot as well!
