dear xda wizards,
i have been feeling the need for a cam app that would have the record button and the button for shooting a pic on screen.
so many times i have recorded a vid instead of taking a pic making the poser like a statue artist
is there an app that would be compatible with gingerbread 2.3.6? (i have a gs2 btw)
i saw a similar interface at my colleagues htc one x. it seemed handy.
any suggestions?
grts,
umyd
Camera ZOOM FX works for 1.5 and up, or at lest thats what Goggle Play says.

I seen some youtube videos and well as some articles of people taking pics with the stock camera app on the Atrix. Some people stated that you hold the camera button (on the screen) till the white focus button turns green, then you release it. Others have said that you just tap the camera button and that's it, it snaps the picture.
So which one of the ways, is the correct way to take a good pic?
Both work, but holding it allows you to see if the camera was able to focus well, and gives you better timing.
How can I take self portraits on the X2 when the only button to take pictures is on the main screen. I am having a hard time hitting the shutter button and not the options button. Is there any app or modification I can make to the phone to fix this!? Help!
Thanks!

Little Photo
You can try using little photo from the market which lets you take a picture just by tapping on the screen or using the volume buttons. theres also a camera mod in the forums that lets you use the search button to take a picture
heh, I'm with the OP, I not a shutter bug so hadn't used the camera much, but I found exactly the same thing. I kept trying to hit the shutter button and it kept sliding out the options menu...
I use vignette and can't recommend it highly enough! I use it as my sole camera and it works awesome. Shoots faster than stock and you can use volume keys or tap anywhere to take a pic. Also allows for 10x zoom which is actually handy and works decently.

Yeah they dropped the ball when they removed the camera button, I could do without most but that one is important

I tried to record some real time data on some equipment's panel screen today (at work place) using the sgs2 stock camera app video recording..
Many had told me the video recording suppose to have auto focus but the wordings are very blur and I can't identify each words at all during recording and also when playback.
At the end I have to borrow my colleague's iPhone 4 to get the job done, it focus immediately on the screen wordings and appeared clearly..
Normally I never use video recording but now I'm bugged by it lol
Am I doing anything wrong here? I'm using Checkrom 3.1.1 though I doubt they have tweaked anything on the camera app, it looks the same as the stock one.
Curious as to who is usijng the default Camera app on the Note, and who is using other apps from the Market (like Camera 360 or Vignette, etc).
Pictures on my note come out well, but so sloow writing & I never seem to know if it snapped a picture or not.
Ideally, I'd like an app where you click click & hold on the screen (it focuses) and when you let go it takes the picture. Very useful with kids so you can let go when they are looking the right way!
Any suggestions?
The stock camera app does the hold/release thing that you want. The picture snaps immediately when you release, the lag you see is just the picture saving. It is a pretty instantaneous picture though.

Volume Button
Are there any apps that utilize the Volume button as a Snap button, I'm using the Camera ICS+ app that can do it, but the quality doesnt seem as good as the stock app. Any suggestions?
Does anyone have know if we can get the app that allows you to take still pictures from video

that feature is available in the stock ROM, just tap the screen while recording a video and it takes a snapshot.

I definitely wanted this feature, and I'm glad I saw this topic.
While reading your reply, I immediately double-tapped my home button to launch my camera, and I attempted your recommendation of tapping the screen while recording a video. Tapping the screen did not work, but there's a camera snap-shot/shutter button. Tapping that icon actually takes a picture while recording a video!
Thank you! I recommend putting "solved" in the topic title. ^_^
I attached a screenshot. While recording a video, simply tap the icon above the red, recording icon. The border of the screen turns green to indicate your picture was taken.
