Panoramic and Stitching photo App

I checked the market and couldn't find anything. Does anyone know of an app that allows for multiple pictures to be taken then stitched together to create a panoramic photo. My Touch Pro did this beautifully and I'm disappointed this wasn't stock on my Nexus One.

You can use Photostitch (android.application.nl-jupe-photostitch-jAnn)

Is there any app available that works on the Nexus One?

Yeah.
Looking myself, I have Photostitch but it just force closes, I've asked the dev to update for Nexus 1.

Ive had a g1, a mytouch, and now the nexus and I've never even heard of such a thing. Sounds neat though I suppose. Is it a work related necessity for you or is that just how you take pictures?

That's just how I take photos. It's much easier to be able to do it on my phone vs. stitching them on my PC because that way I can get a review of half of the last image so I know where to line up the next one.
It allows for great shots like this to be taken quickly and simply without the need for PC editting.

Robot Viewer is a great start for a nexus photo stitching app. Its in a limited beta right now on the market.

How to improve pictures

I for some reason cannot get a decent picture out of this thing. No matter how I adjust the ev settings, in any lighting, the pics always come out blurry. Example below
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So what's the trick for better pics?

Look up camera apps in the market. Fxcamera and camera 360 and Vigenette are popular for good picture quality

That does look bad... It looks like you didn't auto-focus, have you tried that? I think it's a long press on the camera button in the standard app.
Of course make sure the Picture Size is set to 5MP (2560x1920) and set the quality to 'Super fine'.
For third party applications, Vignette is indeed a good way to go. Has many more options than the default camera application.

1. most important! be sure to keep the back lens cover clean. one fingerprint can mean the difference of a good picture and a blurry one.
2. lighting. watch for good lighting.
3. motion. a moving object(or your movement) will translate into a blur.
nexus s pics, stock camera app.

i have vignette and get the same results

clean the lens cover with windex(glass cleaner). it looks like the lens cover is dirty/greasy. no app will give you better pictures, only you can control the quality of your pictures.

Long press the button for focus, release to take the picture.

[Q] Infuse: Auto focus problem

When I use barcode scanning and macro on photos, my infuse can't focus well Barcodes are ok it can capture the moment that the phone focus at the right place, but for macro photo, it can't get the focus done in 90% of the time.
In the beginning I saw the camera keep changing its focus and then focus on a right point, it didn't stop. It would go across the right point finally blur again ,there are two situations:
1. Stop at red box: can't focus.
2. Focus at a wrong distance.
Please help me, I'm not sure if its a defect or software problem.
Thanks

Some sample photos from my rear camera

You might also try focusing on not quite as close as what you're taking a photo of and then snapping the photo of your subject. Sometimes the camera might have a problem with the shadows of what you're trying to take a picture of.

My 7 month old infuse had the same problem. I took it to the local AT&T store, they verified it and called some 800# for me and I received a new phone in 4 days. no charge.

A solution is found!
I understand that this is a super old thread but I suddenly fixed the problem stated above and I remembered my post, expecting this could help a few people.
Setting the camera resolution to 5MP instead of 8MP.
It did work, I hope that it would help people that are still having this problem.

how good is the camera

Looking to buy a new phone and want the best camera possible for under £300

Cam is great but it depends only on lightning condition.

And I will give you honest answer: Its all depend on person who take a picture. :]
Its not a joke, you can have great picture made using even old Sony Ericsson K800i or Nokia N95 because its all depend on person who make it: knowledge of framing, setting up lighting, and most important aspect that most of people dont take in to the account: post-processing.
Yes, editing image after taking it is something normal and SHOULD be made. If would need some really good eye and hand and knowledge of your camera to take perfect picture without editing it later.

Thanks for the replies gents, I ended up buying a note 5 and I'm very happy (old phone) but the eis/ois in video is exceptional.
Seems a great friendly sub forum also

I compare mine to my wife phone galaxy s7 edge,and the p9 bit s7 easily with camera shots especially in light condition,and also in low light condition when using the flash

Macro capabilities

It seems like the macro ability of this phone is not that great. I'm noticing that my Note 8 was able to get closer and take clearer shots. Is there some magic setting that needs to be set to get macros shots working correctly, or is it another case of it is what it is?

All lens has a fixed minimum focal range. That limitation is physical and by design.

I understand this. I just wasn't sure if there was something that I needed to set to get macro mode to work or if it is automatic.

Try the longest lens, and try adding a slight amount of digital image enlargement around 20% if no dedicated setting is present.

In the camera Photo mode, approach the object within an inch or two. At this distance, a "2x" will appear at the bottom left of the view image. See attached image. Touch the 2x and as instructed, back away a little until the instruction vanishes and the image is in sharp focus then take the picture. Note that this is not an extreme macro. The attached image is burred because it was captured before backing away.
