I know that we can cycle through the front and rear camera in the Google Camera app, but only the wide angle lens is able to be selected; the standard FFC lens does not appear available.
Am I missing something, or is this an oversight in the app for this device?

Is there anyway to do this with our phone? I know there is a setting for it in the camera but it doesn't really create the blur effect of things in the background
Play with the camera because there are ways to make it focus on specific items and "ignore" the outside ones
Put a magnifying lens in front of the lens to permit closer focusing.
get a digital cam to take real photos, especially macro shots. What you are trying to do requires a more advanced camera (re: blurry background with focused foreground)

Good point there - Even with a magnifying lens to focus more closely, the tinysensor in the phone's camera is going to result in very deep depth of field. Usually this is good for macro shooting where DOF is often razor thin, unless you're going for that "background out of focus" effect.
Hey all; I have found the camera gets confused with focusing in some instances (IE; bug on glass pane) where "Close up" and "Auto" won't focus on the object at any distance at all.
Is there some app that can control camera focus normally?
Thanks!
I'd like to know something for this as well. Macro shots are terrible on this camera.
Just so everyone knows, we're not looking for something with a digital zoom(Since that takes away a lot of quality).
I've tried the stock camera, camera zoom fx, and camera FV-5(This one runs terribly for some reason). FV-5 has a manual focus mode, but it doesn't work very well and is kind of annoying to me.
I think the best chance you really have for getting any decent macroshots is to use a reverse lens or a proper macro lens.
HI, my plan is to remove the lens elements on the back camera to expose the sensor and make a adapter for DSLR lenses.
Ive allready done some tests on a VGA webcam and the results was very very good. I was able to get an insane amount of zoom out of a 55-250mm lens with "good" picture quality.
I did carefully remove the lens elememts on the back of the camera so the sensor is visible, but since I have removed the focus/shutter mecanism I get a error when I start the camera app, which seems to be the same as the when you have a stuck "shutter" (callback error on startup).
Is there a way to bypass this error and ignore the built in camera checks so i can use the camera without the autofocus/shutter parts.
Any tip would be usefull, my phone is rooted so I can test different camera mods or roms.
Is there a way to stop skype from using the wide angle camera instead of the primary one?
Hey guys,
My main rear camera is broken and I was wondering if my default camera can be changed to the wide-angle lens, because the wide angle lens works fine. The phone is a Moto X4 and it has a dual rear camera set up.
So my question is:
Could I maybe modify the default rear camera ID in the Camera2 api?
Or is there a build prop flag that I can modify that changes the default rear camera to the wide angle lens?
