Ever since lollipop I've had issues taking photos from less than 1.5ft away. Even taking photos of documents(ex drive upload) results in camera first focusing then loosing fosus and resulting in a blurry photo. I tried using Google camera app instead with same result
Ideas?

rooted thunderbolt on bamf cubed. Take pictures with camera and then try to develop, pictures come out very pixelated. I checked all my settings and I cant find a reason why this would be happeneing. Shooting at 8mp, resolution standard4:3 (should I have it set on Widescreen5:3?). Pictures appear crisp and clear when on the phone though.
Please, any ideas will be great. tired of having a "smartphone" and can't even develop the photo's that are taken on it.
Use 5.3 widescreen.
I've never run into this problem unless I used a different camera app.

Android 4.3 Camera Security Bug - Samsung Galaxy Nexus upgraded from 4.2.2 to 4.3 via OTA.
Anyone who recently upgraded can try and replicate this issue.
After upgrade launch the camera, try to set as default settings as you can (not sure if this matters, but try turning off the camera flash).
Use the rear facing camera, press the shutter button as fast as you can, look in the gallery. You might find that photos you previously took and deleted have resurfaced.
Try the same thing with the front facing camera.
I was able to "recover" photos taken and deleted a couple weeks ago using this method. I'm guessing that something in the software can't keep up so it finds old photos and uses them for some reason. After a few rounds of doing this, the problem went away, so maybe it cleared out some kind of cache or used up whatever leftover deleted photos there were.
Anyone else able to replicate?
Whole photos or just the thumbnail? I've had a similar thing on an archos tablet where the thumbnail is an old, deleted photo, but when you select it to display full size, it's the one that was just taken.

It was the whole photo viewed in the gallery. Swipe left from the camera app and the previously deleted photos were viewable. Tap once, they fill the screen, pinch to zoom they enlarge. I didn't try downloading them to my computer through USB. The problem went away after a few rounds of doing this and deleting all available photos, it was quite disconcerting in terms of privacy. The front camera and rear camera seemed to have their own separate caches of deleted photos as the issue happened with each independently. I ended up doing a factory reset which hopefully will be good enough. Nothing special about my device, Galaxy Nexus GSM, purchased from the play store, always upgraded through OTA, never unlocked, never custom ROMs, never rooted, etc...

viewing photo from Samsung stock camera is extremely slow,often took more then 2 sec to actually load the image (only allowed to use galaxy gallery app)
When I download Google camera, viewing image by swiping left display the image instantly and smoothly (using google+ photo app)
I want to keep using the Samsung stock camera because it's so much better then google camera, but viewing photo through camera app is insane painful
any solution?
I got the same problem. They literally take some time to load each picture. Would have though that they would open faster with the new internal flash memory as the read and write speeds were supposed to be quite fast. They said they were the fastest on the market today but obviously this is not the case when load times of each picture is 1-2 seconds.
You've said by your own.
The stock camera is much better than google camera and it has a very good quality and that means it's need more time in processing because it's better.

I don't think that is the true reason for slow load
because once u load the first image, the following 100 image will scroll smoothly
if you saying the first image need more time to load because the picture was just recently taken,
then it should instantly load if I patiently wait for few seconds after photo taken allowing time for image to save, which is not the case, the gallery still require seconds to load the first image despite waiting
this proves that it is the gallery/camera app problem instead of image quality or anything

anyone know how to reduce delay when opening samsung gallery app through camera?
or even better, change the default gallery app load through camera to quickpic ?
I tried almost all famous third party camera app, all of them are pretty bad in terms of speed and function
I don't have this problem. Mine loads quickly even if I completely quit the camera app take a picture then look at it. Believe me I know how bad it was with their previous flagship I had the Note 3 but I commend them for this.
Bump... Anyone found a solution to this? Aggravating when you want to see a picture you've taken, and it takes 10 seconds to load.... The old solution of removing 'other sources' from the Gallery app isn't possible anymore, as Samsung have removed any concept of settings from the Gallery app. Annoying!!
Hello,
This issue seems to have appeared recently on my device, without any particular explanation. It can be potentially be related to Photo Analyzer being disabled from the apps, but that is supposed to increase speed, not introduce lag.
The issue is that my image preview has very low fps in both Superior Auto and Manual modes. What's hilarious is that when I switch to Video mode - the lag disappears and the preview is quite smooth. Not perfect, but acceptable, and just like my photo previews used to perform in the past.
Furthermore, this lag appears only when I move the camera. If I stop moving, the next following seconds there is no lag. The lag appears once the camera detects movement. Then the little stick man walking icon appears in the lower right section of the screen, which seems to be related to the appearance of the lag.
I've tried resolving this via options, by stopping the extra settings like HDR, reducing the resolution to 8MP and clearing the camera app cache. Nothing has really helped so far and the issue is quite strange.
Any ideas on why this might occur and how to solve it? Having a Sony phone is probably the best thing for people who like to investigate problems on a daily basis. :silly:
EDIT: Just wanted to let you know, using other 3rd party apps results in no lag whatsoever. Open Camera seems to be working perfectly fine (except not detecting 20MP reso for photos for some reason).
Overall, there seems to be a problem with the specific Sony camera that I have not been able to resolve yet.
Hey, just wanted to add that clearing data from the Camera app settings resolved this issue. After doing it and re-launching the app, it no longer lags when watching the preview. This seems to be the only solution that helped me. I can speculate that disabling the Photo Analyzer did something, and clearing data resolved it. Disabling Photo Analyzer should definitely speed up the time between taking photos. Photo analyzer eats up some resources by trying to detect faces and locations, then relate them to your contacts so that photos can be sorted by the people in them. If you do not need this, disable it and clear your camera data and cache. Time between taking photos now is not instant, but is definitely significantly faster. Also, the camera app itself opens up very fast, almost instantly, INCLUDING when I activate it from the button when the phone is sleeping.
I may have come across an error in the Find X2 Pro's camera software.
However, the camera software is faulty. With recordings and photos of my hikes (with Komoot tracks), I can 100% prove that since the first day (!) the GPS position, which the camera saves with an image, is sometimes several km away from the actual position . The error occurs systematically. Not for all photos but for about 30% of all photos on a day trip. If I take the same shots with a GCAM app (installed on the Find X2) instead of the original Oppo camera, the position is exactly right. The two screenshots attached show the difference between the GCAM and Oppo cameras.
The GPS works. The GPS position in the komoot track is correct, only the photo is shown far off the track.
Resetting the smartphone to factory settings and reinstalling it did nothing.
I was waiting for the update to Android 12 or ColorOS 12. It came with a new camera SW. Despite this, the error still occurs and it only works with the Oppo camera with a GCAM.
I claim that my problem is not a defect in my smartphone, but a SW error in all Oppo cameras, although I cannot find any references to this on the internet.
What do you think about that? Anyone have the same problems?
