It does nothing different than the normal camera app. Yes, the standard camera app also does HDR. In fact your link clearly states it. It is a modified Android 4.2 camera for Android 2.3+.

If you use the cm camera and HDR it looks horrid to me. I can take an HDR pic with the Google edition camera and it looks great. Same picture with the CM camera come out so dark you can't see it. This one comes out the same as the Google Edition camera but actually works on AOSP. So to me and apparently others it is a nice camera.

This. It seems AOSP cam is only keeping the low light portion of the HDR shot. With this app you can also manipulate your storage location, change the fps on video recording, keep the originals of your HDR shot before processing, etc. Its a killer app and has rounded out the features on AOSP for me.

All this and more. The AOSP camera HDR setting is dark and produces sub par pictures for my taste. This is a great alternative. Was missing the pop that TW camera software gave you with the HDR setting.

Love your username. LoL

Alternative camera apps?

Anyone try any good camera apps?
I like the stock HTC camera app. The panoramic is nice and so is best shot.
Procapture is nice. Nice panoramic and working touch focus.

Any other good suggestions?
I always used Vignette as my default camera app on my og Evo, but honestly, with this new phone, the stock app works so good and I am able to get some good effects with it that I stick with the stock app now.

Tap-to-Focus Camera

Does anyone have a good recommendation for a camera that well-supports tap to focus?
I'm usually back and forth between CM9 and CM10 and I use either the stock Camera in Cyanogen or Camera ICS+ and neither of them seem to support tap-to-focus. I can only choose Auto, Infinity, or Macro and can't adjust the focus manually so I've had so much trouble getting pictures of text properly focused.
I just wanted to know if anyone had a recommendation for a solid camera in Jelly Bean/ICS. I know the stock Samsung camera supports it but the application is garbage otherwise and I don't use the stock ROM.

Are you talking about just having it focus in the middle? Tap the screen and it will focus
Or do you mean being able to focus on a certain area of the picture? I want to be able to focus on an area. I believe the touchwiz camera does that but I haven't had a touchwiz rom in a long time......
I did find that camera 360 does it.
Which is an ok app but it's a bit hinky in many regards.
Anyone know of any other apps that do this?
I found this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.starvingmind.android.shotcontrol
It has the function (see the yellow squares in the first pic) but they aren't active on my phone. I'm running a AOSP ICS rom.
I'm wondering if it works on a touchwiz ICS ROM?
I suppose the odds are slim someone has the app and is on one of those roms.
I guess I'll flash one and quickly see and report back.
Shot control ita the best professional camera app out there

Any idea why the touchwiz camera can do the focus but shot control can't. I sent the developer the configuration and it says those are turned off.

Stock JB Camera & TW Camera

Is there a way to get the job camera to record videos at a higher fps like the tw camera does? Its the only thing I hate about the job camera app.

Camera Settings?

My camera really seems to be worse than the S3 so I am starting to think I don't have the settings tweaked. Should I be at the 13 Megapixel setting or 9? Also the pictures are good with flash but the ones without them are worse than my S3 in similar lighting by far!
13mp is a 4:3 aspect ratio, while 9mp is 16:9. I personally prefer 4:3 for photos so I use 13mp.

I agree. I have been disappointed in the camera when compared to my S3. The camera feels slower and I have more blurry pics than I did with my S3.

Try the anti-shake setting. That helped

Yeah, the anti-shake setting does seem to help, but taking pictures in a dim environment (inside my house) without the flash is difficult. Also, for indoor pictures, I've noticed that the actual picture taken looks darker than what is seen on the screen at the time of taking the picture.

It doesn't take a really good picture low light. I usually have flash on auto. and also set my phone to dynamic.

So, your phone doesn't show a darker picture in the Gallery than what's actually on the screen when the shutter closes? And my screen is set to Standard...does that matter?

Yeah, auto-flash and anti-shake seems to be the way to go for dim environments.

Thanks for this fellas. I've not had a chance to use mine inside yet and this is great information to have. Although I do mostly take outside pictures I'm sure the time will come.

With it set on dynamic it makes it brighter on the phone overall. Of course the phone isn't going to be able to take really great low-light pictures but it makes your screen brighter with more vibrant colors.
