Hi,
Open the camera and on the bottom left there is a magic wand.
Press that and it will give you all the effectsanorama,distortion,vignette etc.

I don't have panorama in the list of effects

Then you don't have the modified camera apk installed. It is NOT a stock feature on the sensation.

Hmm, pretty sure I've done it before.

Any more info? or screenshots etc?

Thanks snandlal!
Installed it like a regular app.
Works pretty well in both camera and video modes.
Wish it had more options though.
Thanks a lot.
This is a step in the right direction. Would be nice if someone could take this and add all the changes that cyan had added to the AOSP camera in his rom.

Sorry I don't have a screenshot, but if you have used CM6, in the early stages before Cyanogen added all the new features to the camera, it is the same camera. Shows up as 3mp, one user said that even though it says 3mp, it is actually 8mp. I can't confirm this, as I no longer have this camera app on my phone. Can anyone else confirm the MP on this camera? Easy way to do this, is to upload a pic to your computer and open it in any photo app. You can also find the pic on your phone and long press the pic and select "Details". What is the resolution of pics taken with this app?

No, the resolution of pictures this cam takes ARE 3mp. I confirmed the resolution after snapping a photo.

That's what I thought. I remembered the original camera from CM6 was only 3 and this looks like the exact same setup. I deleted when I saw the lack of options. I wish someone could mix in the changes that Cyanogen did to the cam app in CM6. That has a LOT of options.... lol

Yeah it keeps freezing after like 15 seconds.....IDK if this can be fixed really. I just turn the cam off and back on and unfreezes and then it freezes again.
mine froze the first couple times. now it is fine.
We got the freezing issue too. Gonna keep testing it out

[App]ICS Camera

I was browsing the LG Nitro HD forum this morning and in one of the threads somebody mentioned this app so I checked it out and am digging it so I thought I'd share.
The app is called Camera ICS, according to the developer it's an improved version of the official camera app in ICS.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5tb2JseW54LmNhbWVyYWljcyJd
Features
- Color effects (mono,sepia,negative,...)
- Silent mode (no shutter sound, might not work on some devices)
- Picture quality setting (low/medium/high/ultra)
- Video bitrate selection (normal/2x)
- Video stabilization on/off (only 4.0)
- 720p face effects (only 4.0)
- Panorama mode and time-lapse video on Honeycomb tablets
It's not a perfect camera app but for some of us it's perfect for our use. Like me. If I want or need something better then I'll bust out my DSLR. I like it and now use it as my daily camera app. I've done very little testing...taken some pics with this app compared to stock app, recorded a quick video with both and here's my opinion so far:
Faster focus
Better video recording
Less time between shots
Fewer options
No full screen viewfinder
Have to double tap pics to view them full screen
But other than that, it's lovely and fits perfectly with my ICS themed phone.
Trying now
Edit: LOVING THiS CAMERA....try it out

Not gonna lie bro....when u said this I tested it on mine and my previous camera app opened (zoomfx). I closed that then opened ics camera, closed that then pressed the camera button again and ics camera opened up. Not sure why but no complaints.
**Edit**
Tested again, stock camera app came up but fc'd and the ics camera immediately came up. I went to manage apps and cleared data for the stock camera app, froze the stock camera app, now its all good.

It does take widescreen pics and video, it just looks like it doesnt when viewed in the gallery. It also has drag to zoom via slider on the screen and u can also use the volume buttons for zoom too.

Yes sir....it doesn't have drag to focus but does have tap to focus....tap the shutter button, it'll focus and take the pic. And it focuses quick too.
I tried this a few weeks ago and thought it was awful. The stock 2.3.6 is much better than ZOOMfx or this ICS one.

Thats the lovely thing about the Market, u have plenty to choose from. We all have different needs/expectations so its nice to have options......I have used stock, CameraZoomFX, Camera360.....I prefer ICS Camera for its faster focus, better quality pics and overall speed. It's also not bloated with a bunch of features I don't need so for me its perfect.

Ah, there it is . And right you are, it focuses very quickly.
I think this could be my default camera. Panoramic mode is flawless, and although it has ads... well, that's why we have a hosts file . There's only one more thing that bothers me - barely any integration with the default gallery. I think that the default gallery is actually quite functional and has a bunch of settings that are lost when using this app.

I was blown away at how fast and acurrate the focus is, very impressive. I ditched the stock gallery long ago, been using QuickPic and absolutely love it....and the recent ICS UI update to it is pretty nice too.

Glad you like 'em. QuickPic is my favorite app of all
QuickPick is indeed great.
I actually think that, while ICS Camera is definitely better than the stock 2.3.4 camera, the improvements with the 2.3.6 camera outdo it. With the stock camera it focuses very quickly especially in low light, and although the theme isn't as pleasant on the eyes it is more configurable. Additionally, the video recording capabilities of ICS Camera are very limited. If you take a video in portrait, it is skewed, stretched, and cropped to be in landscape. Also since I'm on 2.3.6 and I haven't edited my hosts file the camera's ads are pretty annoying.
Just my opinion but I'm sticking with stock.

I can confirm that... I'm on Endymion currently and i see the purple line too... approx 3-4 pixels thick.
But to be fair to instagram, they do warn when selecting the advanced camera that it does not work on all devices...
Use Camera360 with Compatibility mode.

??? Why not just use the built in stock camera???
He wants to use instagram... And only has problem with the advanced camera inside of instagram. Just disable that option and you're good to go if your stock camera is OK. No sense using a third party camera of the problem is app specific.

The problem is with camera drivers from cm or the kernel.
The stock camera app has same problem.
That's why I use camera360 which have hardware compatibility mode.

Oh ok...
Just wondering... are you talking about an ICS ROM? Or GB? I think the OP has lost interest after starting the thread, and left us here to squabble!!
If you ask me, i think this problem is app centred, and I encountered it even on Instagram running on GB 2.3.5 (I'm running Endymion - Sense 3.5) where the stock camera is the best you'll find for the Desire S on any ROM.
I'm using stock ROM. Obviously I'm aware I can disable the option of using Instagram's in-built camera, but this is not the solution I'm hoping for I love Instagram filters but I don't like the fact I have to come out of the app and open up stock Android cam app, resize it, and go back again. Using Instagram's advanced am feature is so much better.
The rest of the image is fine and the option works perfectly APART from this one really ruining fluorescent pink line down the left side of every image.

Well, that's a bug with the app... sit tight, with Instagram's growing popularity, they're bound to roll out updates with fixes to the camera anytime soon!
Regardless, there's nothing you or I could do to fix an app issue. Instagram will have to fix that.
When you still experiencing this using Instagram camera try to switch to front camera take a shot, then revert to back camera. Pink line gone now. Works for me.

Shooting in the dark?

Has anyone else noticed that the camera is pretty useless when shooting in the dark?
The flash does not come on before the picture is taken, so the camera does not have time to focus. All the pictures are pointing in the wrong direction as I cannot see what it's pointing at and are totally out of focus.
Not impressed. Am I missing something?

As a workaround, you can shoot stills while shooting video with the flash on.

Yes, for example a light flash in order to focus before full power flash and shot.
with other phone I have turned on the flashlight and left it on before turning on the camera. That works fine.

I hope they will put an option to turn on flash before taking a photo. I'm using CameraFX just for that, for the time being :cyclops:
