just added a photo frame to a home screen and it recognised faces in a photo.
I know my desire did this but the honeycomb camera doesn't seem to have facial recognition. are there any other uses for it in honeycomb???
still waiting for the holy grail where it recognises whose face it is in android .....

Reviews of the Sensation seem to imply that there is no continuous autofocus in camcorder mode... can someone with the phone confirm that?
would be a real shame!
From this spec comparison between SE Neo and HTC Sensation, it says:
"There are some attractive features which the Neo has and the Sensation doesn’t, notably video calling, continuous autofocus, video light and smile detection, but overall we feel the HTC is better equipped with its dual LED flash, image stabilisation and higher quality video capture."
Yeah, I've read that too.. but would be good if someone with a Sensation in hand could confirm it.
Having 1080p recording without the continuous autofocus is a joke.
This video shows autofocus and zoom.

(notes say it was made with a prelim version, so final may vary)
The user guide for the sensation does mention in page 69 that after starting recording:
6. You can freely zoom in or out while recording video.
7. You can change focus to a different subject or area by just tapping it on the
Viewfinder screen.
Which implies that you can zoom while recording & that Focus does change.

Here's a posted video. Looks to me like everything is kept in focus at varying distances.

Without the phone I can't confirm, but I've seen several vids and none show signs of losing focus when the distance to objects varies.
Look at this video:

After watching this video, we can conclude that the HTC Sensation's camera does sport continuous autofocus and/or tap-to-focus.
I guess it would be a whole lot easier if someone in possession of a HTC Sensation could've posted in this thread.
It's tap to focus. You tap the object on the screen that you want to focus on and it then focuses on that object for you.
Have tested it, but haven't uploaded it.
Some of the 1080p videos that I've taken with my Sensation have involved lots of panning around and objects sometimes being a lot closer than others, and when playing the video back on my PC screen everything is always sharply in focus.
"Tap to focus" is like a manual override of autofocus. For example: If the camera has focused on somebody in the foreground, but you actually want the background to be in focus, or vice versa.
I jsut had a play around with it on my Sensation. While panning around with the viewfinder it does auto focus. While actually recording video it does not, but refocuses if you touch the screen. I'll get a video done showing it.

Youtube really kills the framerate... anywhere else I could upload that would be better? As you can see, it does not automatically refocus. When you do touch the screen it refocuses quickly though.
Edit: This should do - Dropbox link to video file

There should be. Currently sent my Nexus s for repair so cant check but i watched a video demo in youtube and i think i saw there is zoom.
No, camera zoom will not be present in ICS but if you really want it Get Camera Zoom FX from market, it has digital zoom.

That's the only kind of zoom you're going to get on a mobile phone in the near future. It's called digital zoom, and that's what pretty much all mobile phones (including Galaxy Nexus) have.
I think the feature will be available to only capable devices as far as i know our Nexus doesn't support zooming although it might be possible that in ICS they implemented digital zoom which is of less quality
There's no point in a digital zoom, you're simply cropping a section of a picture.
Without a lens that can zoom, there's no point in zooming.
I thought it was confirmed that the base firmware reports to the rest of the system that camera doesn't support any type of zooming, including digital on the Nexus S.
The Galaxy Nexus does though. Sometimes digital zoom is better than no zoom when you want to quickly focus on a particular subject and that you don't want to fiddle with desktop editing software.

Hi
Someone know if it will have macro mode for picture and stuffs like this? Will it be better than note 5 for photos and video. Someome know?
Thanks
The Samsung galaxy camera is impressive in its own right. It shoots excellent pictures out of the box, with very little fuss. But it can do more. Much more.
Samsung actually pared back some of the features in the camera app this time around. That makes the initial experience easier no more overwhelming feature lists but it does mean you're lacking things that were built in before. Say, the ability to record an animated GIF, for one. The good news is these features are pretty easy to get back. Here's how.
First things first: You're going to need to have a Samsung Account to get to the new (well, relocated, anyway) camera modes. That is, you'll be downloading them from Samsung's app store. The good news is it's relatively painless to sign up for one (you can now use your Google account to do so.
Surround shot:
This is Samsung's version of Google's Photo Sphere.
Sports shot: Aids in taking pictures of fast-moving subjects.
"
Sound & shot:
This is a cool one that adds in a few seconds of background sound at the time you took the picture.
Beauty face:
Digitally adds makeup.
Animated gif: Takes a series of pictures 20, actually and stitches them together for animation purposes.
Rear-cam selfie: Helps the rear camera identify faces and auto focus for ... a picture of yourself with the rear camera.
Dual camera: Simultaneously uses the front and rear cameras for that front-back effect. Or, as we like to call it, Mullet Mode.
Auto mode (default).
Pro mode.
Selective focus mode.
Panorama mode.
Slow motion mode (for video recording).
Fast motion mode (for video recording).
Virtual shot mode.
For the front camera, there are 4 pre-installed Samsung Galaxy S6 camera modes:
Selfie mode (default).
Wide selfie mode.
Virtual shot mode.
Interval shot mode.
cool
Impressive
Very informative and detailed review. Thanks a ton
thanks a lot for the information.
Hello guys
There is an option to upload photos on Facebook and to make them 3D, very cool and beautiful you can check them here https://facebook360.fb.com/360-photos/
But sadly, it's only for people with iPhones. The requirements are to have iPhone with 2 cameras. Basically, the picture needs to be shot with 2 cameras to have a depth effect to make it 3D. But why only for iPhones? Basically, every phone with two cameras should be able to do it. Is there any way to use this option on android?
Sorry not using FB
It is possible to create the 3D photo without an iPhone
Well it is possible to create the 3D photo without an iPhone. let’s start by looking at the special features of Portrait Mode. It doesn’t just take one photo. It takes your “normal” photo, but also takes another “special” photo. This ‘special’ photo is the depth map, which is created when we take photo from a phone with two cameras. This depth map shows which part of the photo is ‘closer’ to the camera, and which part is ‘further’ from the camera .This works just as our eyes work. When we know which object is near and which object is far, we can construct a 3D understanding of what we see on our brain. Facebook uses this depth data to construct a 3D Photo, relying on it to gain a 3D view of our photo and make a 3D parallax effect with it.
‘Live Focus’ mode on Galaxy Note 9 relies on the same principle as the iPhone X’s Portrait Mode. But its stores depth data differently. The qualty of 3d image is less as compared to iPhone. take a look here : www.facebook.com/nuuneoi/posts/10216478233324532
The main issue is that the depth map data taken from most Android phones with 2 camera has no standard. Every brand uses different formats for their depth data, so it may take a while for Facebook to roll out this feature to the another phone model beside Apple’s iPhones :angel::angel:
May I know what it is? Is it face recognition? Some of my videos in Huawei gallery has this circle with red dot on. Is it some kind of face recognition? Or highlights?
Face recognition. For your saved faces of family and friends
