Hi Guys,
Just got an Xperia S. I have an issue with the camera. The video is very choppy when taking a picture. Its like I'm shooting the picture in night mode(And I'm not). All settings are default.
Now when i record video its perfect.
Its kind of hard to explain so I've made a video of it which is attached.
Just like to mention that in the camera settings my "Focus mode" setting is greyed out when in the photo mode.(Don't know if this is significant.
My exposure is set to 0. If i bring it all the way down to -2 image isn't choppy anymore but it becomes way too dark.
Anyone else having this issue? Any idea if this is an issue or is the camera like this?
Would it be possible to delete the camera app and reinstall it?
Thanks in advance

Did you try changing the capturing mode to scene recognition if it exhibits the same?

Yeah tried that still same issue.
Update: When I'm in sunlight its fine. Its only when I'm indoors/low light that this happens even though the setting is set to manual and not automatic.
Can you post some pictures taken with the phone showing your problem?
Edit: nvm, I thought he meant photo quality since the thread title implies this, but he means video.
mines the same :S also when i press down the camera button during standby it'll take a pic, but when i do it with the home screen on, it doesnt take one...anyone got the same problem?

No i mean the photo quality. When I'm in the camera app its very choppy. Ive returned the phone and waiting on a new unit so i don't have any pictures i took indoors on me but heres 1 which were taken outside. Even in daylight theres a sort of haze.

Are you using a transparent casing? I have a transparent casing on mine and the flash reflects off it into the lens. Just remove the casing and it will be ok, or shoot without flash.

When it is dark, the phone automatically slows shutter speed to increase light to the sensor. This causes the choppiness. This is the disadvantage of a camera phone vs normal camera where you can control the shutter speed.
On the night mode taking shot is always slow. But the pics can be great.
But the above pic shows it may be a problem with the hardware.
I had the same problem but I solved it, by wiping it!! I just had some smoo on the lense is all make sure it's clean

Hello everybody
I found exposure slider in camera setting has no effect on viewfinder and also on resulted media . Weather was still camera or video.
Any one confirm this or else?

I have the exact same problem, from both front and back cameras. Same in third party camera apps, exposure controls simply do not function as expected, no change at all. HDR picture mode seems to work fine though.
Not a serious enough problem for me to RMA, but it is a small dent in the glory of the S3 for sure..

I also had this issue and was deeply disappointed, because my optimus 2x made much better shots in low light because of the exposure compensation.
I found the solution today: I used the hidden camera menu *#34971539# and discovered that my camera was ZDFE02 and the phone firmware was ZDFE03. If your phone to cam button is greyed out, do this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32721917
After copying the file to internal SD, restart, then update and restart. You get new cam firmware and now the exposure works.
I noticed today when I went to send a snapchat the camera was blurry won't focus so swapped to the normal camera app thinking it was snapchat that was acting up but it was still the same. It will beep and the green ring will show when tapped but still won't focus.
Any ideas thanks
The lens could be dirty, or you can clear data from camera app and see what happens.
I run into the same problem on my hTC Desire 825. Suddenly, since yesterday the camera did not focus. I did not drop the mobile on the floor and did not expose it to blows!
I cleaned the lens, deleted the cache and the data from the camera app and it still doesn't focus. I don't know what else to try. Any ideas? Thank you.
Hi, I noticed sometimes when I switch to the wide angle camera it get frozen. Today I was in the plane and want to take photos of pleased moments however this camera failed me. I already factory rest but the problem still there. I also have the green screen issue. Anyone with the same problem?

Can I check, are you running a custom launcher on your device?
I have started experiencing this issue with my galaxy s9+.
The camera no longer capture those impressive shots which it used to capture last month or until few weeks ago.
Now the photos are blur and focus is very bad.
Anyone facing similar issue.
Can anyone help me fix it?
My camera is capturing photos, the shots which it used take were very impressive and now the quality has become very bad all of sudden.
Please see the 1st photo in white t-shirt. It is few weeks ago.
The second photo in black t-shirt is captured now. It is very blur. No matter how many times I try or change location or light condition. Photos are very blur and focus is very bad.
FYI... I reset the camera settings and clean the partition cache several times.
Thanks for your help.

To see if it's the hardware or the software, I would suggest you try the same photo setup with a DIFFERENT camera application to see if the problem is in all the camera apps or in just the one you're using.
Each camera app will have its own set of settings which may help you debug, e.g., the GCam port has these settings screenshotted below which can help you debug such as "dirty lens warning" and resolution setup.
But the SIMPLEST camera app to test might be this FOSS camera app from Mark Harmon. If that doesn't work, nothing will.
There is also the free "camera2api" probe utility program which may provide hardware malfunction indicators.
