Bad Screenshot Quality - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Why is the Screenshots taken in my Note 2 and 3 barely readable?
It looks like the phone is trying to capture the image with a 1/15th shutter speed lol jk.
But seriously, it's there a way to get a ss that is in perfect image quality(not blurry)?

Yes they are but are awesome on the Note 2!
Cool thanks for the heads up. The special version of Flipboard with S Pen functionality is kick ass.

how is awesome note?
Little bit of a learning curve but so far it's pretty damn cool. Took me forever to figure out how to take a picture. Landscape mode is generally best. Otherwise things can be quite small. I'll need more time with it though because there is a lot going on in this app.
I have tried 3 times over wifi and with wifi off I give up

App is robust.
There are however barely any options making this almost not usable for me. Unless I'm missing something completely? Tasks don't show up when I create them until the date they are due.

This low quality image making me feel sh:@t !!!!

Im so pissed!!!
This is not what i expect,.
Is the image really looks like blurry or grainy like the image below?
I took the image with the super auto.
Is there something wrong with my newly bought device, because im still in the warranty...

Haha that minion..
Looks like we're the same.. Isnt that an issue for a 8mp camera? Its grainy/blurry..

Hey man, of course it gets grainier in low light environment!
Go outside in the sun and make a photo there. It will not be grainy.
As there is no flash or photo light, this behavior is totally normal. You will have to live with it.
Oops, forgot to tell that i also took a photo outside, which is sunny, and the photo is still not clear(grainy\blurry)..

here are some pictures taken with my nexus 4 (also an 8 mp camera)
Use normal mode instead of superior auto and setup the camera yourself and dont use hdr then see what the quality is like. You might notice that without using those options the camera uses the full 8MP.

Also remember its a tablet.. Not a device designed to take pictures .
The cameras only real useful use is to Skype etc.
If you need a good camera then you will have to buy one.

Honestly, the camera on this thing is nowhere as good as I thought it would be...not a dealbreaker as I don't use a tablet to take pictures almost ever but still expected more.

If you notice that your leg is clear and the rest of the picture is grainy then it indicates that the camera focused on your leg, not the things in the background. Keep things close out of the picture so it can auto focus on what you want in the picture.

Poor Camera

I know the hardware of the camera in the G2 is supposed to be great, and people are raving over it, but coming from the Note 2, and even looking at my wife's GS3, I'm not a fan. Does anyone else experience the extremely poor auto focusing, and the ghosting when moving the camera to get your shot? I'm not well versed in the world of photography, and I like how dummy proof the Note 2 made things. If your subject moves (and seeing as mine is a 13 month old, she's always moving), the pics come out very poorly. With the quick auto focusing on the Note 2, great pics weren't a problem.
Anyone else experiencing this issue? Something I should try differently? I want to keep this device, but this problem will have me returning and waiting for the Note 3 or even heading to the dark side (and I REALLY don't want to), the iPhone 5S.
I have definitely noticed that this phone's camera doesn't like it when you're moving the phone or taking a picture of something that's moving. It's always disturbingly blurry when I move the camera around. However, stills look pretty great. The camera wasn't a huge selling point of the phone for me so I'm not too worried about it but I hope when we get custom ROMs developers will include better camera apps.

You're right - maybe there will be better camera apps when the custom ROMs hit. I'm willing to donate for that, no prob. I love everything about this device with the exception of that. I tried to install the GS3/Note 2 camera apk, but it wouldn't work sadly.
Change the iso. The HDR is incredible on the G2.

Coming from a Note 2 and S4, I've found the camera on the G2 to be much better in both normal and HDR modes.
I had some poor auto focus shots at first until I realized all the smudges on the camera lens from learning to locate the rear buttons appropriately.

This is truly a great pic. And I agree it is a great cam, which is why I'm bummed I'm getting poor pics. I think my biggest problem is how slow it is to focus. The picture is gone by the time it does.
The camera on the G2 is amazing. I am very impressed.

Did you change it from 10 mega pixel to 13? I know it made a difference when I changed it.

Some Times auto focus does take longer than usual but I must say coming from a note 2 and lumia 928 this camera trumps them both easily. Try sports mode for the kids.it worked very well in my niece today! You won't get the low light sensitivity though.

whites are way too over exposed on the camera. the detail is good, but the over exposure is just awful. the sky will never come out blue, unless pointed directly at it.

"Super Camera" app for G2

Hi all,
I was pointed to this thread on another forum:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2427019
The intro is in Chinese, but once you scroll through it you get to the English menus and interface.
I downloaded the most recent version (3.5) and installed it on my rooted G2. Boy! What a better app! Seems to have a better AE method and there are a lot of very cool options to toy with while retaining manual control.
I've been using it for an hour now and I really like it.

I like the feeling that it's so snappy, but it almost never wants to focus. Always red box..

I noticed that too, but when you actually take the picture it does pre-AF and I've had excellent results. Didn't screw around with manual focus yet.
Loved this app on my HTC one, haven't really played with it on my g2 though

how this compare to the camera fx zoom for 1.99 on the play store?
i don't like camera zoom much..but this is damn good. i love all the settings.
---------- Post added at 06:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------
funny thing i noticed though..in video, mode, it shows a couple stuck white pixels.
they aren't there on the stock camera. i'm wondering if the software is a bit glitchy when it comes to third party video cameras. i noticed this on the GPE camera as well. weird right?
I've been comparing some identical shots between stock camera and super camera, and I'm surprised to see that Super Camera actually looks better. There is more detail and it's a little darker so it doesn't appear washed out. I wouldn't have complained about the stock camera since it's great, but this looks even better.
I haven't tried many lighting conditions, so it might be worse in some cases. I haven't tried video either, but I noticed an option for image stabilization. I think it's software stabilization, but I wonder if it works in conjunction with OIS. Anyone know?
Sent from my LG-D800 using Tapatalk 4
EDIT: I tried a lot more pics, and it turns out that the stock camera is actually more detailed when viewing at 100%. It also is more color accurate. The super camera isn't bad at all though.
This is a great camera app. Thanks for sharing this!

I like the low light option in super camera, seems sharper. It takes and blends two exposures.
What's cool about super camera is you can change the metering, something that's lacking in the stock camera

I just want a camera app that allows me more control over the JPG settings, amount of NR applied, compression, etc. Hell, if there was a RAW option, I'd be estatic!
This app is so much better than the stock one. It's vastly more responsive. I love it. Great find!

exactly. the noise reduction is so high on this phone that the images come out super soft in low light, and even moderate light. quite annoying.
Does it have panorama? I hate the panorama on the g2. Very sensitive and its always coming out blurry.

Night video performance

almost bought a G2 till i see some night video shot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9CRoqceOqZc

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.

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 ((((

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.
