Is it possible to tweak autofocus to tune shutter after the countdown timer not before?
The idea is that after pressing the camera shutter button focus tune on the object before him. And assuming that I want to do myself a sweet photo I have to somehow set the scene. Unfortunately, focus is already tuned to something else and have blurry pictures.
In my Galaxy S first the timer counts down to and then set the autofocus. It can be done on Galaxy ACE? Probably have to tune up .apk, but I can not do that ... Please help a wise head.
Sorry for my terrible lang :shy:
tryed to touch the "something else" on the screen before start timer?
ps seems that doesn't work, but with camera 360 do it right (I've tried with v3.0).

Is there anyway to over ride the auto focus feature on the phone, and just set it to infinity of some such. I find between the time I press the shutter and whe the focus has finished faffing around, my subject has wandered off
you can turn off autofocus in the camera settings.
Can someone make a mod to add manual focus to the camera? It's really annoying with the auto focus when you're close to an object and it focuses back out. Don't tell me you tap to focus, can turn auto focus off, or we have a two stage shutter button, I know all of this and have tried every combination of it. None of it works any better.
Was wondering if there is any way to get a manual focus ability like a touch slider. Every time I try to take a close up of something, like my leachie or a spider outside, even on macro setting, will focus on the object perfectly, then unfocus it. I try tapping on the object that I want focused, but same thing. Unfocused, focuses, then unfocus before it takes the pic. It is very irritating.

I've had that same problem. If you take the picture really quickly, as soon as you hear the camera focus, it will sometimes take the photo without unfocusing. Also, if you move back a couple of inches and just zoom in, it tends to stay focused better. Other than that, I can't think of any workarounds, and would be glad to hear if someone else had some thoughts.
I wonder if it's a software issue - maybe try a different camera app from the Play Store and see if it can stay focused up close.

my camera shutter seems to be broken and i think its stuck in focus mode, I mean if i touch the screen any where in the camera app, the focus circle seems to move where my finger is but it doesnt show blue lining (which means its not focusing) and it also doesnt give me the focus sound so yah... it does auto focus when I take the picture but still , I was wondering if i can put the camera shutter out function ( any software changes I can do to set the shutter to do nothing so I can use the touch focus)?
i think you fixed your phone.
every they open, my camera focus is slow, ablout 6-8s.
We can replace camera sensor, and everything will be okay,
I do a lot of fishing and I often have to prop up my phone on something random for a pic of my fish while I'm holding it, and I can't necessarily get behind the camera to focus and snap, and then get in front of the camera with a fish in the other hand. All my other, lesser phones would automatically focus when I just pressed shutter, set the phone down and I got in front of the camera. Everything I do now this phone the camera blurs me in the picture, I guess because it wants me to focus before I set the camera down? There surely has to be a setting to adjust this? Anyone know what I'm talking about?
Anyone know what I'm asking? Try it yourself,put timer on camera, press shutter and THEN put your phone down and get in front for the picture. it will be blurry...never had a phone that didn't know how to focus after you set it down. Seems like the camera is focusing on the object when you presss shutter and not the object in the lense at the time the shutter actually goes off...
i found the problem. you have to go to pro settings and on the AF (automatic focus) option, you have to select AF-S, as default in non-pro is AF-C.
basically af-c is trying to take a picture of a moving object, and af-s will focus on the stationary object. so if you are trying to get a still of you and some people and have to press shutting before you set the phone down (and don't want to just take a selfie), go to pro settings and change AF to AF-S and that should work near 100% of the time.
