hello friends
i am having this strange problem with my samsung s2.when ever i click pic i got dull picture and when i zoom them its not as clear as my friends s2.i have default camera setting.pls help me solve this problem
First check if u use the same resolution!
Then think about installed mods and Rom.
After this also check camera and clear it.
If all is checked, send it to Samsung, maybe a hardware pro.
CHEERS
Sent from my Galaxy S2 - I9100 with Sensation Rom!
It'll be out of a few options: a scratched/dirty camera lense, your capture settings are set to a lower resolution/quality (max is "Super Fine" and 8MP), or a hardware defect.
Check if you both have the same setting, maybe download picturec to PC and compare there on bigger screen + compare EXIF info

Alright everybody,
I have had the mozart now for a few weeks and everything is outstanding on it, it's pretty far removed from WM6.5.
The only problem i'm having is the camera just seems to shoot a little blurry, I know some of the pics are me not quite keeping still, I was just wondering what settings it should be on for a good picture.
Thanks
Graham
Hi,
I've not changed any of settings and am getting pretty good results (when I remember to wait for the 2nd flash that is!).
Will have a play about with the settings over the weekend and post if I find anything interesting.
I'm currently thinking about getting a 7 Mozart myself and was wondering how the camera performs.
Could you please take some pictures and post them here?
Thank you very much in advance.

I'd say that's a superb quality for a mobile camera
Could you please post some pictures (preferably in bad lighting condition too) of the camera, too?
Thank you for your work
Here is the review with pics and everything:

How does the Mozart camera compare to the Omnia 7? I am considering either this for the camera or the Omnia for the S-Amoled.
I'm experience the blurred image as well and I did not change the setting either.
Just wonder how to take close ups with this camera e.g. when i take photos of a book the words are not readable, blurred???
EDIT: Wrong thread !
Anyway, I'm having the same issue with "blurry" pictures. Even my N900's 5Mpix camera is performing better... *Sigh*

This might sound a bit odd, but u know the button on the side to press to actually take the pic? .. Hold it in for about 5/6 secs and it seems to zoom in and crisp the focus ... then click to take a pic.

Have you tried Macro mode? Works well for me.
I've not had any problems with blurry pictures.....unless I move after focus has locked. Unfortunately there's no Microsoft update coming for me being bad at keeping still!
Ok, we need to press the camera button for a while until it adjusts the focus, then close ups can be taken and once focus is locked then there is no blurr and images are just excellent. thank dov74.
any thing i'm missing in settings about macro mode? not sure where it is.

No Problem.
Macro mode is under camera/settings/scenes then it's the last option. I've not taken any proper photos with it but I've messed about with it and have gotten good results.
From memory, another member on here uploaded a picture taken in Macro mode - will have a look and see if I can find.

thanks dov74, I've found it, never scrolled the scenes option further down
Been searching, looking... the specs I read stated the camera on the 5 had a digital zoom. Cannot seem to find it. ??? Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
We haven't been able to figure out how to zoom on our SGP5s either (got several of them)!
So, if anyone knows, please post?
Jim
I can't find it either. In the manual:
4. After taking a photo, touch Image Viewer to view the photo.
While viewing the photo, use these options:
• Pinch the screen or double-tap on the screen to zoom all the way in
or out. For more information, refer to “Pinch” on page 17.
But that's AFTER you take the picture, probably the zoom they were talking about. I gave up and bought Camera ZOOM FX when it was 10 cents the other day. MUCH better camera app!

That app is now $2.99 ... I checked out a couple of others, but none of the free ones I tried, including the one from "mnApps" would zoom .

Hi,
Can you confirm that Camera ZOOM FX can do zoom in preview/taking pictures?
I've been trying a number of other (free) apps, all which say they can support zoom, but none of them work so far.
Also, I found this:
http://www.popcrowd.com/
and the 1/2/2011 posting seems to indicate problems with zoom and the Samsung Nexus S (I'm assuming similar to with the SGP5 and zoom).
Jim
Just got off a chat with Samsung support, and they said that the YP-G70 doesn't support zoom while taking pictures.
I'd still be interested in tcat007's response re. Camera ZOOM FX, and whether or not it can do the zoom.
From what I've found, apparently the Samsung players may have a non-standard API or interface for zoom, rather than supporting the Google API. I'm wondering if the Camera ZOOM FX guys were able to get around that.

FYI, I just got Camera ZOOM FX, and it IS able to zoom with my SGP5 (US/Gingerbread/2.3.5). It auto-detected "Type 2", but wouldn't zoom, so I tried the other types, and "Type 4" works !
So, apparently the SGP5 hardware is similar to (has same problem) as the Nexus S:

I can confirm Zoom in CameraZoomFX does work. You have to set the Zoom setting on "Type4". It does "act" a little strange. The zoom slider does zoom on preview, but when you take the picture it "appears" to go back to 1:1 (a temporary 1:1 preview). But when you open the image, it is at the zoom ratio you clicked it at.
It also has an "activate shutter sound" check box, when unchecked there is NO sound!
Update: The zoom is pretty much worthless. I just took a shot 1:1, and a shot 6:1. The 1:1 is 2048x1536=3.1mp, 1mb file size. The 6:1 is 178x238=42kp 11.5k file size... not sure how/why it changes the aspect ratio. You're better off taking a 1:1 shot and cropping to what you want to get the zoom (pretty much what digital zoom is anyway).
Thanks to all who have answered up, replied with results from the Market and calls to Samsung support. I suspect that based on Zoom FX's is not actually changing the lens dimensioning but merely doing a zoom on the 1:1 image before it saves the file.
I am not an expert on the cameras, but know there are other Samsung cameras (like the one in my Samsung Epic 4G phone) that have firmware updates to change features like this. Guess we'll have to dig more...
Not meaning to hi-jack my own thread but just trying to register this thing on Samsung's website is a pain! This is a U.S. model ( I hope since I bought it in VA at a Best Buy!) but the Samsung registration wants a model number and model code?? Mine says its a YP-G70 in the Settings > About Device > Model number, but there is no 'model code' listed on it/in it that I can find.
Samsung's registration is asking me if its a Model Code YP-G70CW/PEO, /TTT, /WON, /XAA or /XAX.

Don't ignore this post!! Try it! It works wonders!
Hi guys, I am certain everyone is unhappy with the camera quality of Lenovo A6000 plus, otherwise a great phone. Having used LUMIA 920 for 2 years and LUMIA 520 for 6 months, I was very much disappointed with the camera quality of this phone. I was expecting it to be at least on par with the 'just 5MP' camera of 520 but was proven horribly wrong. The case worsens even more if you are running a custom ROM. So loads of searching and trying all available camera apps on the play store I finally got a solution. I want to share it.
First you will have to download this app 'Cinema FV-5'.
The link - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.cinema.lite&hl=de
This is the lite version. Try it, if you like buy it! (This is not my app by the way, just sharing).
1. Open the app, go to settings. In 'General camcorder settings', uncheck 'focus before capturing', and check 'allow capturing videos without focus', this is necessary for continuous focus during recording.
2. In 'Video' tab, check custom video settings, change the video resolution to 1280x720 16:9, change the FPS to 24 and leave everything else as it is, don't change.
3. On the same page 'Video', touch 'set image parameters', you will now be on viewfinder screen. There decrease sharpness to 0 and hit done.
4. Touch the [AF] icon and change the focus mode to continuous like in the image. And you are done!
You won't believe how much difference it makes even compared to stock Lenovo camera. While the stock Lenovo camera makes jarring and VGA quality videos, this app with these of my settings records much much better videos!
For photos -
For photos, you can use the sibling app 'Camera FV-5', go to settings > photo encoding settings > set image parameters and decrease sharpness to 0.

updated OP. Thanks you liked the trick! Sad that many people only view this thread. I hope they try it. I really want to take out the only shortcoming this phone has!!
I test today this program. The colors are more quality but I did not like focus. Some inscriptions I can't read with this program ,but when I use original is more better.

Did you follow every step mentioned by me? It should give you better results than stock camera any day!! At least on a custom ROM! But I believe it will work just as good on stock rom too cause the video recording in stock rom with stock Camera app pretty much sucks!! By no means it looks 720p 'HD', it feels like VGA at 15fps recording. For better focus you need to pay attention to the first and last instruction in the OP. Have a good luck!
