Can anyone please explain why the Sensation has a lower framerate when in camera mode (not shooting, just panning around) than say a Galaxy S2?
I had a GS2 for testing a few days and it's amazing how it maintains high FPS (perfect fluid panning motion) even in low light conditions. The Sensation can't do that, it turns almost into a slideshow...
I noticed the CM7 AOSP camera does a better job than stock/amaze mod, but it's still not 100% fluid.
I'm not expecting RED quality when shooting video, but the differences are quite visible between phones nowadays.
Thanks!
I would say that it the app. Because I bought anther camera app, and the FPS is much better. It still lags a bit, but not as much as the stock one.
why is the g2x ffc quality so dark?
i compared it to my itouch4 and the itouch ffcamera is way better than the g2x.
is this any fix for this?
also notice the g2x video recording LAGS when recording in LOW LIGHTING.
the only time when it doesnt lag is when it has direct contact to LIGHT or the SUN.
I think it's because the camera sucks. Both the rear and front facing are pretty junky IMO and tend to shoot really poorly in low light conditions. Turns out HTC cares about hardware quality and LG cares about hardware specs. Again, IMO
in fact, if you flash a 2.3.4 based rom, your front camera will not be that dark anymore, try it!
So, i'm coming from a G2x, which has pretty substantial camera quality if you ask me, but I was anxious to move to something better. But am I the only one that thinks the pictures taken with the One S are a little, I dunno, grainy? They just don't look as smooth as the ones I took with the G2x. Also, I noticed that sometimes the pictures I take come out blurry, I guess the camera is so instant it has that effect. Any way I can fix this?
Grainy could be from the pentile screen, look at them on the pc and see if it has the same problem.
I thought that as well, but there is a marked difference in quality between photos taken on both devices when viewed on the One S. I'll try seeing if there is a difference on the PC anyway.
Personally don't have any issues with the quality on my device.
On the topic of Camera - I'd like to see NODO-GT make a version of his Camera MOD for the One S

I came from a G2x and I feel the picture quality on the One S is superior, but not by a huge margin. The faster shutter speed, stills within video and the continuous mode are also huge improvements.

The G2x is the shame of T-Mobile. To even compare anything HTC to LG is like comparing a Ferrari to a Geo Metro. The camera on the HTC One S is the best out of any phone I have had in the last 2 years, and I have had all the flagship devices.
I really understand what you meant. I have my Xperia Arc which I'm looking to replace with the One S and after browsing sample photos I thought the picture quality was so mediocre. Colors and contrast are really great when zoomed out but in 100% resolution when comparing shots on gsmarena and other review sites I thought that they looked really bad. Bad, because they looked extremely grainy. Sometimes when there are sharp edges you can see small dots of various colors - kind of like compression artifacts or extreme oversharpening but more weird. It looks really bad. I was very dissatisfied with what I saw and when I posted my findings on another board most people didn't know what the fuss was about. Strange, because otherwise the pictures would look really well - I'm surprised that the HTC team didn't fix that issue, because the sensor appears to be really good - it's clearly the camera software and post-processing that appears to introduce those strange artifacts.

So is there an available fix on a custom ROM? I noticed one ROM was boasting better camera, but that was the only ROM which did!
Did anyone notice a camera quality decrease lately (maybe since the update)?
My pictures are really grainy and the camera is very slow sometimes.
Not really sure about the quality, but I definitely don't like the new camera ui compared to the ICS one.
Quite frankly, I love this phone. It's fast and fluid and it's battery life is amazing. The only downside to it is the terrible video quality of this phone. It isn't sharp at all and is quite blurry on the details of the objects. Is there any way to improve this?
which resolution are you recording? 1080p or 720p?
did you see that issue in both resolutions?
