Does anybody know if there has been an attempt at trying to get the nexus s to auto focus while its capturing video? I don't understand why it has a fixed focus when shooting video. I know it can't shoot any HD video but I think it could take some pretty cool macro video if there was some way to not have a fixed focus.

Extreme close up, though used loosely in the case of phone photography.
The flower on a digital camera. It allows you to put the camera close without zooming to get a clean and clear close up. A feature that would be great on a phone.

Something like this would be "macro". I shot this the other night with my nexus s and its been color corrected slightly.

Had to test it out. It's pretty cool but buggy. Have to set the lcd density at 160 instead of 240.

....here is a better article on it.
I dont know why my pics come out like that. The screen shots look fine on my phone but when I uploaded them it turned out blurry. Is there a better app for screen shots? Thanks for posting that article.

Hi xda just a general question is it just me or does the camera's autofocus is pretty crap. When the I am about to.take a picture but before the picture is taken and the shutter button is pressed a little bit the image quality becomes amazing but when the picture is taken the quality sucks

Also the quality is the best when led is on

Can you explain that a little more? How do you test that?

SO what I am basically saying is that camera quality becomes really good when the camera is autofoucusing but it gets worse when he camera is about to take picture. Also I would post a picture taken from the cellphone

Image with flash

Image without flash
Sent from my XT720 using XDA App
From a purely "mechanics of photography" standpoint, the image with flash will have a much faster shutter speed while the picture without flash the shutter is open longer & more susceptible to to camera shake. What about a picture taken outside with good lighting & no flash? Does that produce an acceptable picture?
I will try that later

I just realized all pics I take with the front facing camera are mirrored.... is this the case for everybody? Supposed to be like this? No way...

I guess it makes sense for.it to be mirrored.... but you would think saving a pic would correct this ... or an option....

Happens on most FFCs, including my 3DS and previous phone (iPhone 4).
Ya... it makes sense... once I thought about it... but like I said... you would think.it would show mirrored on screen but save pic properly... but.then again... only time you.would notice is if there is text.. or logos.... on well... now everyone gets to see my studly kid... hahaha

Then everyone would be pissed that all the pictures are flipping upon saving. Most front facing cams will be mirrored just so when you move left, so does the image of you. Thinking about videos.
It may appear "weird" at first, but it is REALLY weird when you flip it your way. Trust me. I used to have a WebCam with this option to "flip" and it was instantly turned off.
Hey all...
I am thinking of replacing my droid 2 global with a captivate. The only thing holding me back is the lack of a flash. Does anyone have any feedback on both indoor and outdoor shooting with the captivate? Does the camera suffer with no flash?
Feel free to post a sample if you like.
Thanks

I am not a professional photographer by any means, but I personally don't miss not having a flash. My old phone had one so I thought it was a feature I would miss, but it takes great pictures in fairly low light. Of course if it's dark out, you're screwed, but I think it does pretty well without one in most other situations, IMHO.
Yeah that's kinda the answer I have been getting.
Mu Droid 2 global sucks big time...and it has the flash!
I'd rather have an ever-so-slightly darker picture than a completely washed-out-by-the-flash picture any day of the week

Now that we have all of this red tape out of the way, let's talk price....
Hello,
I wanted to know if there is an app for the nexus which can allow you to take a picture of someone but blurs out the rest of the background. For example I take a picture of a person who remains in the reticle within the app, so the person's picture comes out clear but the background around him/her is blurred slightly. My friends htc one camera does that.
Thanks

Use the Google Camera. To focus on a certain person or object just touch it on your screen. It will autofocus on that object.
This is with the stock camera app.. Simply touch to manual focus what you want
