Hey guys
Is there any method/guide for better performance/quality in in uz?
I am wondering about this under average quality photos in this phone even with a powerful ximor rs sensor at indoor conditions!
Uz takes very bad noisy photos in low light conditions that i have never seen in each other 8 mp phones.
I have tried all options for gaining better results but unfortunately this camera disappointed me at all.

That's true. ZU camera is not the best one.
But try Cemre Zoom FX. It takes much better photos.
I'm happy with that.

The lack of an LED should have tipped you off straight away, and the fact that the ZU uses the same camera as the Z (correct me if i'm wrong), but without an LED. You can of course install a different camera app from the Play Store, or wait until devs have ported the Z1 camera app to the ZU (still no guarantee that it will produce better photos though).

It's not really clear whether zu has the same camera module as the z, actually. Zu is only 8mp, while z has 13mp, so no guarantee the hardware is the same. And zu is far thinner than z to contain the same module, but this is just a wild guess.

Anyway, there's a thread that ported SuperCamera app from lenovo k900 for zu, too. Maybe you can check it out.

Do you use your Galaxy Player 5.0's camera? What app do you use, or you use stock. Post some pics
Just wondering the quality, cuz my quality on is bad-decent. Just wondering if I could make it any better.
I rarely use it but I use the stock app. Quality wise it's good no complaints here's a back yard photo

I have the 4.0, not the 5.0.. But I always use the camera on it.
I usually use Pro Capture rather than the stock camera though.
I think the quality is pretty decent actually. Better than I expected it to be.
Kinda wish I had a flash like the 5.0, but whatever. lol
The quality is better than a family members 7-8 MP Kodak digicam, for sure. lol
Here's a recent shot from a hike~ (resized for forum)
2 moon shots from my GP 4.0~
and one from the Kodak digicam~
I think The Galaxy Player wins. lol
:good:
Cool moon pics!

Holy cow, how do you get such big pictures of the moon without optical zoom? No optical zoom is the reason my galaxy player (or any other smart device) will ever replace my camera.

I just held my galaxy players cam lens up to one of my telescopes eyepieces. lol
that was a 5 inch- Newtonian scope I think.
This was taken with my 5.0, no edit at all. You just have to know how to use the camera to get good quality pics. I have more pics like this one

Even when I was on Gingerbread, I never used the camera. It is inadequate and insufficient to get what I want out of a photograph. There is no "real" zoom on the lens and the megapixel count on the device is never going to produce any pictures of print quality.
Thus, for my photography needs, I go to a Nikon D7000 DSLR. In contrast, however, my wife uses Canon's Powershot Series camera, which is a very powerful, much cheaper alternative to a DSLR.

I love the camera on my player but I'm willing to not use it for the small time being because CM10 is coming out with a 3.xx kernel so the Camera will be working in no time.
I'm a bit reluctant to update to one of the ICS roms because I use the camera so often. Sure, it doesn't compare to a dedicated device but it's more than adequate image quality for sharing and/or even printing if you play around enough with the settings. Night shots are obviously pretty bad but can't say I expected much more from a tablet's camera.

Some mushrooms, taken with my 4.0
I forgot to put Macro on, but still came out pretty decent.
Anyone who says this isn't "good enough" for the quick snapping of pics, is :silly: lol
Obviously one wouldn't use these cameras for professional photography, but to say it's "not even good enough to use" is ridiculous.
almost bought a G2 till i see some night video shot

seems blurry and slow FPS
is there fix for this yet?
Yup. It over compensate for the low light by adjusting the iso higher therefore making some images and videos blurry.

Yeah, if you wanna run that boring and crippled OS. Just carry a compact digital camera if you are that desperate for better shots and video instead of lowering your phone standards.
I'm not directing that at you, just in general.

Decent still not great. I guess it could be improved, but only as far as the sensor allows.

I still think we are not going to see "great" night video/picture on any phone for a while yet. We could be two three years away from that imo.
The only way that will happen is if you get a big enough sensor that bulges out of the phone. Like in the case of Nokia builds.

You honestly can't see the difference in lg G2 and HTC one night video? The fps is so...slow it doesn't look natural at all.
Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The f2.4 lens can only get so much light. The low light video was sweet in my one, but that's an f2 lens.
The g2 has decent video, but not being able to lock focus and exposure is a really downer. The continuous autofocus kills the videos
Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk 2
Both video show a brightly lid night scene but blurry, probably the result of low shutter speed and wide open apertures. If there is some way for people to manually set the shutter speed and aperture or make it less aggressive while taking the video, I am sure everyone will be happy.
Trying lower the brightness setting while taking the of the video might help with higher shutter speed and better focus.
The video that shows the drive through Bangkok's road I am impressed by the stabilisation though. =)

I honestly think when I had the SGS4 it took the best videos. Sound capture was really great and also fps was superb. Think I am going back to it ((((
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
yeah the S4 kills the G2 in terms of video all around.
damn it, I really want this phone over the S4 for its battery, I dont want to go to Note 3 cause that thing is way too big....WHY LG?! WHY?! U WERE SOOO CLOSE.....
I had a HTC one and the the video was ok for the one time I tried a night video since launch. Are you lot going bat watching or something as I'd gladly have a much faster phone and better screen then go to a s4 or HTC one.

don't use superior auto, and set the iso as low as possible. Also try different camera apps like fv-5 or "a better camera"
I pay fv -5 and I don't have better camera, that is the same.
this is the camera software error; think that will be fixed in an upgrade?

Well for me, indoors with poor lighting conditions will produce same results as yours whatever app your using...but outdoors with good lighting will make decent result...enough to make you satisfied...but if you change to normal and set scenery to night or night portrait, you will see different results...the same if you fiddle with the settings...
But the thing is, z ultra is known to bad camera...don't you know that...
Sent from my C6833 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Research before buying is the keywords here. Why don't people do that with the ease of the internet? It's beyond my understanding.
All that buys a Z Ultra know they will get a crappy camera. There is nothing wrong with your camera.
Software can only do so much. It's the hardware that's crappy.

To be honest, such an improvement is only skin deep. The more problematic issue is the native code where all the image post processing is done. Plus with the latest 757 version, the Superior Auto is pretty good actually, the first time ever that i have confidence in Superior Auto Mode. It's like they have reduced the standard ISO level on the Superior Auto just like Manual, so the resulting image is less filled with artifact. So please try it again

That is interesting. The camera is really sad indeed. Even though I do photography as a hobbie with a Sony NEX! (great cameras which makes it even sadder that the Ultra is so lame), so the built in camera is not crucial but now that I got my GF the Note 2 I can see how bad it is really is lol
Would someone be able to explain the benefit of leaving the camera in 8mp vs 23mp?

Day light always 23MP better but 8MP at low light benefit by Sony SuperSampling algorithm(much like Nokia 1020) for noise reduction and fine tuning the image bcoz it's quite unrealistic for a 1/2.3" sensor to take 23MP at low light.
Well no one is going to realistically change resolution that often so what do you leave on?

Keep it at 8mp Superior Auto. Best for most situations
What about 20mp Superior Auto. Does that not give the same result as 8mp?

Sometimes dramatically different. 8mp SA is best for most scenarios
i really don't agree. in (very) low light; yes. but i find to get better shots overall with manual 20mp... everything looks more crisp and it's most color accurate ...
Does the aspect ratio impact superior auto at all? Like can you use either one?
