9:16 pictures problem - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
I just wondering is there any possibility to take photo 9:16 with 8 mega pixels rather than 6 mega pixel
Coz always when wanna take photos with my s3 camera on 8 mega pixels it's come 4:3 so i hope there's solution for that

I don't think so. Because the CCD http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charge-coupled_device of s3 is 4:3, you can scale down to take the picture in another aspect ratio, but you can never scale it up to take the photo in another aspect ratio.
As you can see,
This is 8MP (4:3): http://web.forret.com/tools/megapixel.asp?width=3264&height=2448
This is 8MP (16:9): http://web.forret.com/tools/megapixel.asp?width=3768&height=2120
This is 6MP (16:9): http://web.forret.com/tools/megapixel.asp?width=3264&height=1836
The width of 16:9 (3768) is exceed the width of 4:3 (3264), therefore making it impossible to capture (out of CCD field). However, you can still take photo in 16:9 but in lower resolution (3264 x 1836) because both the width and height doesn't goes above the limit of the installed CCD.

Hmm, can you check if that application took the photo and then stretch it by post-processing? because it's seems to be technically impossible

Mozart vs HD7 Camera

I went to see a Mozart yesterday and a HD7 today and I can say personally I find the Mozart camera waaaaaay better. With the Mozart you can mmove the phone around and take a picture and it is perfect, no blurring whatsoever. But on the HD7 even holding it perfectly still it was blurring. BUT the HD7 is so much better looking! Both me and my missis were blown away but the Metro UI, so smooth and responsive.
oh really?can you show more about them?such as cpu。。。。
no review without shots man! show samples!

Wow, seriously?! That's from the Mozart???
I read in a Pocketnow review that the camera was rubbish. Clearly they were wrong.

That pic is from the HTC 7 Mozart, I got one from Telstra on the launch day. I had issues with the headphones so now I sent it to back to HTC. I took that a few days back in the macro mode
what are the different modes for the camera? from what i read there aren't any.
My touch pro has a good camera with a lot of modes and brightness settings I use, this is a feature that I think should be available for the mozart.
I dont have the devicce with me now, Will add it once I get it back. If I forget just give me an shout on Twitter @1800PocketPC

The scene modes on my Mozart are: Auto, Portrait, Landscape, Sports, Beach, Backlight, Candlelight & Macro.
There is also are also options to adjust the metering mode, resolution, effects and Flicker correction but that's about it.

From the bad engadget review it sounded like it didn't have much to prove. Id really like to see a professional photographer review this phone for the least and not some worthless teenager. Those modes do sound reasonable. .

And what does pentile screen have to do with zoom? You do realize this is using digital zoom and it is crap?

Exactly. And..what does a picture taken with the phone's camera have to do with the screen? ...hmm.
This post is full of fail.
sorry but i don't really see your point.. this doesn't prove anything nor has to do with PenTile technology. your problem is called digital zoom so don't blame the screen if you don't know what you're talking about.
hi guys no need to be upset. it's just my initial thoughts... okay i admit digital zoom got nothing to do with the pentile display...i just noticed the pixelation seem to "look" like the pexilation of the pentile screen, but thats just my opinion.
cheers!

My laptop doesn't have pentile so I can't see what you're seeing... but I'll take your word for it.
hi sleek68,
please don't take my word for it. im no expert. you can always refer here -->www.pentileblog.com.
what i could say is that it may not be the best display out there. i has potential along with appropriate fonts and icons that will render nicely on your display.

I thought the OP wanted us to focus on the fence or something....lol
That screen shot isnt a good way to say its looks similar to Pentile.
You would be better off just taking a pic of your phone with another camera and hopefully get good detail.
And for me....letters and edges of icons is the only places where I can ...clearly....see it when held close. Held closer and its clearer on icons themselves.
Pic and clips....nothing.
Its not the display, its the camera and the JPEG rendering engine software.
Although it is 8 megapixels, it is not iPhone or SGS2 quality.
I notice the flaws in the pentile display when I am moving and zooming around in a Pdf file.
But I did get over 89,000 on the Browser Mark test.

why is 12 megapixel photos in 4:3??

Why? Is it technical thing?
Because thi is the ratio of the sensor, other format involves cropping that reduces total mpix of the output.
Ciao!

This is from the 808 but it gives you an idea. The sensor has a fixed shape, so the wider you go the more pixels you have to ignore.

The last time I check "professional cameras" are all 3:2, no?
If you take a picture in 9mp 16:9 and then change it to 12mp 4:3 and take a pic of the same thing, you'll see that you get more of the top and bottom in the image compared to 9mp. It's just cropping 3mp from the top and bottom of the 4:3 pic to get the 16:9 ratio.
It's just a popular ratio + the camera image fills our screen when set to 16:9 so it looks nicer.
Normally the sensor is 4:3, they just made it like this from the big die... some times, they cut it in other aspects like 3:2 or something it's all about manufacturing and getting the best cost...
here's a regular sensor, which is just 4:3
http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/DMCGH1/ZSENSOR-LG.JPG
so imagine this sensor is 12MP, you will have an image that take the whole sensor, if you need a 16:9 image you will have three options:-
1- Stretch : ouch, should not be an option at all !!
2- Expand Horizontally : Impossible, because with 12MP you already use the full width and height, there's now where to Expand any where..
3- Crop vertically : It's the only option, by cropping from both top and bottom till the aspect ratio is 16:9 you will have the image you want.. but you will loose pixels ( Megapixels ) and incase of a 12MP you will have several MP cuts.. some camera might give you 9MP and some might give you 8MP...
same goes for Xperia arc, which has 8MP sensor, if you want 16:9 picture, the software will cut 1MP bar from top and another 1MP bar from bottom.. you will have a 6MP image by then...
some cameras are native 16:9 but these are rare, I only saw some in Pro camcorder, and with these the role will be inverted, you have a 16:9 sensor, so to get a 4:3 image you will need to crop two vertical bars from left and right so when capturing a 4:3 image with a 16:9 sensor you will also loose MP.. just like capturing 16:9 images with 4:3 sensors...
Thanks to the guys answering this thread. I've found this really interesting, never really thought about it before
Yeah, we all are now
And yes 3:2 lol
In fact IMO the 12MP 4:3 photos are more useful generally.
(That ratio also works better than 16:9 on Facebook, and since most of our photos would end up in there anyway, why not choose this? )
16:9 is too long and sometimes would look really strange, especially if you also do photography with a normal camera.
It all depends on what your subject is and what you use to view the pictures. I prefer 16:9 when viewing the on the TV at it fills all the area, and 4:3 at other times. I was annoyed when I bought a Fuji bridge camera that had 14MP, only on 16:9 too! By the time I got XS, I came to expect this

Photos from My DNA today 56k.

I got to try out the stock camera on my DNA today.
The pics do it justice in high light situations. But noticing that they will do poorly on Zoomed and dim photos.
Here are unedited shots.

Any tips on enhancing it even more to get the most out of the DNA camera? any mods?
In low light conditions, switch the ISO to 200 and use flash, it will take decent to nice pics that way, especially if the object or person isn't that far away... It may be a little hard to see the object/person but I think it does well..
Nice pics
Hope it helps
You might also note that the default resolution w/ a widescreen (16:9) picture is only about 6 megapixels. If you switch to the 4:3 resolution, it will use the full resolution of the sensor and give you 8 megapixel pictures.

One thing to keep in mind if you do this is that if you want to use the front camera you should switch it back to 16:9 to get the most resolution out of that one.

If you use dropbox, box, or bitcasa, you can automatically sync your pictures to your account. Take pic, auto upload, then delete off phone (if space is an issue.)

The 8 megapixel picture will produce a larger file, but does it actually add in terms of better sharpness and richer details? I am just worried that the relatively weak sensor (it's a cell phone after all) will not be able add much more useful data beyond the 6 default megapixels, just more interpolated fluff.

My understanding of the way the sensor is creating widescreen (16:9) pictures, is that it is cutting the top 10% and bottom 10% of the picture off. Setting the camera to 4:3 gathers data from the full sensor. I don't think it the interpolation is changing.
Another way to think about the 16:9 picture, is if you set the camera to take a 4:3 picture, and then printed the picture, you would have a picture with a 4:3 ratio. If you then cut the top 10% (or so) and the bottom 10% (or so) of the picture off of the print, you would then have the same 16:9 picture that you would have had if you had the camera set to the default setting. It doesn't really effect the 16:9 picture, but you aren't utilizing the full surface area of the sensor.

Wide Angle Camera Kit

Has anyone tried it or seen some friend using this ?
http://www.ebay.in/itm/Quick-Clip-W...S-wbr-5-/301347466272?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276
I believe this should also work for our G3 if it does for the S5.
It even supports macro mode if you rotate the lens.
Looks promising.
Also looking for a wide angle kit for rear camera something like ~120 deg. But not for macro rather for action video shots 5-10 meters (15-30 feet) from the subject. Can someone recommend a decent kit?
Is the laser AF affected by the external wide angle kit?
Does anybody know what angle is the rear camera, can't find this info anywhere?
Any chance for a sample shot with the wide angle lens from above kit.
This gets good reviews on Amazon and Blunty likes it.
