Don't drool! Welcome the first G2x with a fisheye'd lense. It's a completely removable. I used this same lense on my Samsung Vibrant (and the sample photos you'll see below are from the Vibrant, NOT the G2x just yet). Now my G2x will be doing all the work.
The lens has a magnetic ring on the rear and then you apply a ring as well to the camera on your phone that has some adhesive in the rear of it.
Some of you will ask where I got it from. Well. There are several types on the internet of the same brand, but this one seems to give the best picture and less blurriness around the edges. It rocks.
Only issue I see is the flash will be semi-blocked and might cause odd lighting. Since I came from the Samsung Vibrant it won't be such a big deal to turn the flash off for the time being.

Some sample photos with the Samsung Vibrant and the fish eye. I'll get some better shots soon with the G2x. The Vibrant's cam wasn't the best either. :/

Would you mind posting a link?
I just went to ebay under In Cell Phone & PDA Accessories. I typed in "Lens" for a general search because i wasn't sure what was available. they are all universal kits that usually stick on with magnets or clips
I really like the typical magnet style but also saw this as a bundle for cheap. Might be worth a shot considering the similar price.

Camera 360 has been my favorite. The pro version has a few more features than the free, but I'm happy with the free. Used black and white setting.
No, I don't mean for actually taking photos. I have a DSLR for that.

Ah, I see now. You mean apps that assist in photography. I guess I read it wrong. If you meant a camera app, you probably would have titled it, "camera app." Haven't come across anything as of yet, but will shoot it this direction when I do. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Photoshop does that pretty well. I don't know why you'd need it on your phone since 1) you can't really do exposure bracketing with the built-in camera and 2) it is very CPU-intensive. It takes my quad-core about a minute to HDR a 12.1MP image with 3 shots.

As a very keen amateur have subscribed to this thread.
Don't really know what kind of apps you're looking for, but I found GoldenPic (I know it's on Android, but I don't know about iPhone) that shows you the golden hour, blue hour, sunrise, sunset, etc. It seems to work good and I took some great golden hour photos this past weekend (if I don't mind saying so myself)
it looks like they just have Android for now. I found the website here:
goldenpic.jebsapps.com
You also have 'Photography Trainer'.
It's a Paid App $1.99
To Quote from AppBrain:-
This app guides you step-by-step how to set your D-SLR to take the perfect shot. Capture amazing photos by truly understanding shutter speed, aperture & ISO. Dozens of sample photos, photography tips and tutorials. Night photography, sports, landscapes, portraits, HDR & more.
It's well loved with practically ALL comments getting 5 Stars.
Anyone here try that 'Photography Trainer' app? I wish they had a free version available to try out first.

It's very good. I just got it, and it is really good especially if you are totally new to DSLR photography. It gives you an intuitive flow of conditions and then gives details based on each level. I.E. Night time -> moving object -> fireworks.

does the mesmerize have a front facing camera option, I see what looks like a prox censor, light sensor and a camera. Just wondering if it can be unlocked by a different rom
think theres only two sensors in front at least thats all that I see.
if you look at the one on the right it has two in it i beleive that is the light and prox but the left one looks like the evo / my touch 4g camaera
There is no front facing camera on the Galaxy S Mesmerize.
he is right about there being 3 things in the front though. wonder what the 3rd sensor is for?

It, along with every other variant, has been opened up and no there isn't a camera in there. There isn't a hole through the backing of the glass for it to even look through. It would be on the other side from the proximity sensor. There are posts out there where people have bought the camera and put it in. They even got it to work in most cases, but do you really want to take the chance of jacking your rear camera up or worse, your whole phone.

I don't think anyone has put the ffc in the mes, I don't think the i9000 camera would work anyhow. The physical arrangement on the front and rear camera are on the same side of (right side I believe) of the fascinate. Ours has opposing front and rear camera placement. So even if someone did try I think they would need to modify the camera to make it fit right =(

I do not believe this, not because I think you are a liar, but because every HTC I have owned has not had a good camera(quality wise). Maybe they've turned a corner but I have to see it to believe it.
I personally do not like the camera as it "washes out" peoples faces and makes them really white or something if its an up close shot. It is really annoying. Other than that it takes pretty decent pictures.
I played with a sensation and boy did that take good pictures all around I like the sensations more.

You just need to dial the brightness down a notch or two, the G2X sensor is very large for low light environments.

I feel the same exact way. The G2X camera has good software but the camera quality itself doesn't hold a candle to the Sensations camera. Nor does the video recording. I also love how the Sensation snaps a picture the instant you press the button.

Doesn't look that sharp to me, but this seems to be the trend with all the photos I've seen in reviews (don't have my atrix 2 yet). The macro shots can look good, especially the ones that showcase rocks for some reason, but further distance its pretty blurry looking compared to other high-end phones. The colors are kind of drab and probably the most annoying to me is that the image comes up much darker than it should, at least in comparison to other phones (there's several blogs that pit the atrix 2 against the gs2, amaze, etc.), so images shot at noon in a clear sky look like they are shot in a cloud covered day. These are probably automatic settings. Dunno about adjusting it and all that. Wish it would autofocus in video too.
Drag the focus box instead of tapping.

The camera is on par with most of the devices out there, sure there are some better but this phone is just fine. If your taking a picture that you need to scrutinize that much then use a camera not your phone. Personally I bought my phone to be used as a phone with the benefit of having a camera. I don't understand why people buy a device an then scrutinize it to hell. Would you buy a car without test driving it?

Not bashing the camera at all here I was just getting opinions from others about the picture quality from a supposed 8mp camera
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
The A2 has a ton of potential but there's too much time after you press the photo. Press the button and it takes so long the pics blurred from movement. The oem cam app is lame and it doesn't do good at night. I used cam zoom and it does torch mode for night. Also during the day colors were washed out even in indirect sun light. I really like the camera but the SGS II oem camera app destroys it. The pics regardless of the light are sharp, clean, and overall great. I did however really love the HD recording. Did some really good recordings with zero complaints.

Yeah I do realize but in most cases higher MP do result in a better picture. 8mp cameras usually shoot better than a 5mp. But the quality issue probably is because of shutter lag

No, no, no, you got it all wrong. The megapixel rating just tells you how large of a picture the camera can take, the sensor is what determines the quality of said picture. Read this article to get a better understanding.

Just received my 16GB from Tesco here in the UK. In my initial checks I found there's quite a bit of backlight bleed across the top of the display and about 1-1.5cm down either side. It's not the worst I've ever seen but it ain't great either. Not sure whether to return or live with it. I might see if I can get a shot of it to post on here.
Do other people have the same problem?
I've had 2. Both identical bleed up top.

Would you say they were within the realms of acceptability?
I just got rid of a stuck green pixel directly below the speaker. I think so yeah. You're not going to get much better.

I didn't notice any bleed until it was pointed out, and then I still had to look for it. Maybe my eyes are dodgy (!), but in my opinion, it's completely acceptable for normal use.
I agree, now if I spent 400 I'd think differently.

You've definitely got a point, even more so as I effectively got it for free with Tesco Clubcard vouchers.
Anyway, I've taken a shot for the record.

My device have some bleed to, but not as much as this.
One problem I found is that it has two black spots on the mount point of the LCD, you can only see when you put the phone slightly tilted.
Does anyone have the same problem?

I can clearly make one out in the bottom left, not so much the other side. That won't bother me TBH.

Yes, is not something that bothers a lot, but I was thinking of getting to replace, but if it is with all, I am stay with that.
Anyone else have the same situation?
Thank you.

Wow - my Moto G's screen definitely does not have as much bleed as that. Nowhere near! And I can only see one of the mount points at extreme angles (way higher than any usable angles). The effects might be exaggerated by the photos I guess? Is it the same with bare eyes? I would take some photos of mine but I don't have another camera...

With my bleed, do you reckon I should return it?

The mount point I start to see at approximately 35 degrees, below is new images illustrating the "problem":
35°
45°
85°

I can't speak for the average quality of the screens on different Moto Gs, so it's hard to say. If you got it from a shop, maybe you could consider taking it in and asking to compare to some other Moto Gs because you're concerned about it?
Maybe I am lucky and got one with an excellent quality screen or something?!

Yep, that looks a bit irritating. I definitely don't see anything like that at around 35-45°... The most I can see is a vaguely darker area, pretty much only visible on full brightness.
I have almost no bleeding at all, just sayin'
I've arranged a return. On searching I did find this thread with a similar experience of bleed (although no pic) http://www.modaco.com/topic/366801-backlight-bleed/
I also noticed a very slight flaw/nick in the glossy plastic surrounding the screen. That plastic is a little soft so I'm wondering about the durability of the phone in the longer term.
Anyway I'm not getting a replacement right now, I'm going to sit back and see if these issues are prevalent and then decide whether to get another.
Any QA issue would raise it. This is how manufacturers learn and improve

I can see some backlight bleed, but it's not all that bad at all, and I had to use a black image to really notice it. It's mostly in the top left corner, for some reason..
