Buttery smooth even with the "heavy" filters. At least in my experience.

Hey guys,
I've got an xperia mini on ICS and, although it's not my main phone I still carry it around for it's pure small-factor-size. Just seems to fit anywhere.
The only thing I'm not impressed with is the video recording. It's S**T. Camera capture is pretty decent but the video recording is so blocky and jpegy it looks like its been compressed to play on a calculator. (and yes it is set to high quality in settings)
Now I don't believe this is the best the camera module can do. Is there no kind of app that can capture raw data from the camera and not compress it quite so much?
Am I asking too much?
Hello! This is my first post here in the galaxy s5 forum... has anyone noticed that instagram blurs photos? I have taken quite a few awesome shots with this camera and even when im editing them in instagram they look great, but when I upload it the picture looks all blury.. does this have something to do with the high quality image process thing on instagram?
I find that Instagram definitely lowers the quality of photos. It seems the only photos that are perfect quality with Instagram are photos take on the iPhone.... :/ I wish they would change this for Android. A 16MP camera is a shame to waste.
This is a known bug with the crappy instagram app on Android.

I just recorded a small video of a local event with stock camera app set on 1080p video. In the video if you look around face of the singer or any thin lines, you will see little squares or jagged lines etc., as if the video was upscaled from 480p or something. It's even more visible on original file on a normal PC display, but even in the web version it's a defininte huge loss of resolution. This is very weird. I'm using madsurfer's ROM, but I don't think it's ROM related.
Here's the video: https://goo.gl/photos/c17a5iofhPas73aP9 - first few seconds are out of focus, then you can see the problem.
Any advice?
OK, I have found a workaround for the video problem!
First - I have confirmed, there is definitely a problem with 1080p video recording with stock camera app. I'm not sure if it's ROM related or stock is the same, but it's definitely there. The quality is very very bad, pixelated and feels upscaled.
However when I have installed Cinema FV-5 app, the quality is great, no more pixelation, everything looks better, even crappy digital zoom is smoother. I have shot same video at the same time with stock app and FV-5, and there is a huge difference:
Stock camera app video - pixelated and jagged edges, huge artifacts, digital zoom shows big square artifacts. Check roof edges on top left, and a street lamp pole line.
Cinema Fv-5 video - everything is smooth, no jagged lines, digital zoom shows no squares or pixelation - just sharpness loss.
You have to open both videos on a PC in full screen and with 1080p HD quality to really see the difference.
So the problem is clearly with the stock app, or madsurfer's ROM version of that app or settings. I think another camera app such as FV-5 solves this issue. I liked the simplicity of stock app, but it's not usable at this moment.
Hey guys,
I'm using Global Stable 10.3.4 and I can definitely notice stock cam has improved.
However, where it remains the same is on fine details, like bricks, fabrics, etc. where is noticeable that software compresses image and delete all fine details, image becomes blurred.
I've been playing with Gcam port from this forum and it doesn't suffer from this, AS LONG as jpeg quality is set to 100%. When Gcam jpeg quality is set to 85% or lower, I get the same blur and lack of detail.
My suspicion is that MIUI stock cam jpeg quality is not set to 100%. Could it be possible to tweak it a D force it somewhere to make stock cam use 100% quality as in Gcam?
Many thanks in advance
Well you have contrast, saturation and sharpness options in the settings menu of the miui camera app, try playing with that a bit!
I was wondering if there is a camera app out there that allows one to take a picture and record video using all three lenses simultaneously. I'd like three individual video files saved: ultra wide, normal, and telephoto. I have looked around and this appears to be unique to the LG V40 (for photos not videos) but it creates a lame slideshow with transitions effects I dont want.
Thanks!
Dont think its possible, since video recording uses the CPU alot. And filming with 3 lenses would be pretty difficult for the cpu, maybe in low quality it would be possible...
