Of course zooming will be crap. Its digital zoom, not optical.
All it does is reduce the resolution("cut" the image"), and then upscales it once the picture is taken.
Its better not to use the zoom, and then "zoom" yourself in PS or something. The end result will be better.

Polaris camera only has no zoom in camera mode, only 2x zoom in movie mode
Ruduce camera down to 1 megapixal and you should have 2x digital zoom
Thats because the image that the camera can capture is 3 mp big, so it has a fixed widh and height.
When you reduce the cuality to 1MP for example, you can take a 3MP photo, but only capture a part of the size of a 1MP, thats the "zoom" you get...
I hope my english is understandable...
Chears.
I'm a big picture guy and wanted to know if any of you guys have adjusted any of the settings and have noticed better picture quality. I must say taking off auto-focus does help with the blurryness a little as stated in a previous post but just wanted to know what differences have you made/seen...
I currently have most things set to default.

Set it to highest resolution.
You will probably have to go to another app to really get good pictures. The stock app compresses them down too much. Hopefully, they will improve it in later updates. There is no excuse for not having more features like Camera 360 - the camera can do much better.
Ditto for the "720p" video. Did some side-by-side with a still camera that has a 720p mode - night and day difference in quality. Again, hope/wonder if this can also be upgraded with only software.
Switch to standard photo size by switching off widescreen mode. All widescreen does is lop off pixels from the top and bottom of your photos. If you really wanted that, just do it yourself in a photo editor. You are not using the full resolution of your camera in widescreen mode, and 16:9 photos are non-standard when it comes to printing either 4x6 or 5x7 photos.
I noticed that the camera lens opening is different in still mode from the camcorder mode. Is there a reason for that? I don't like the setting of the still mode because is zoomed out.

I think you are referring to the fact that in video mode you have a narrower field of view than in still photo mode. This is due to the fact that in order for the camera to record video at 1280 x 720 (0.921 mpx) rezolution, it is used only that particular portion of the entire 3.2 mpx sensor. That's why you have a narrower field of view when shooting videos, in contrast with the still picture mode.
Thanks for your answer. That's exactly what I was referring to. I wish the same portion would be used for still pic. Any suggestion for a good camera app with zoom ?
Have you tried Camera Zoom FX? It had zoom up to 6x digitally or optically.

Hello, I only just got the HTC ONE mini yesterday and just trying to get to grips with a couple of things, mainly the stills camera. I can see in the setting you can change the video resolution but I cannot for the life of me see where you can lower the resolution of the camera say if i want to shoot in 1024x768 or 640x480 - can anyone point me in the right direction please.
Also when I have taken the photo how can i go and adjust the brightness and colour and contrast and sharpness of the photo before sharing it using the inbuilt htc camer app rather than having to download snapseed or another post processing app? - I have tried 'edit' and then 'retouch' but rather than sliders for brightness contrast and saturation etc it just gives skin smooth face lighting face contour etc but no control of photo brightness or anything else - thanks for any help.
Hi guys,
which camera resolution setting do you use: 20M 5120x3840 (4:3) or 12M 3968x2976 (4:3)?
The 12M is great as it has a zoom option, but the 20M obviously it is better resolution. The picture quality, myself I can not tell much difference.
Thing is, I do not always take zoomed pictures, but when I do, it is so time consuming to go to settings and change the resolution, and tehre is no easy swipe or shortcut to do so.
Which setting you guys on?
Use 12M. Smaller file sizes, same quality, you can zoom in etc. No use in 20m
You can always zoom later by cropping in from the 20MP image. I hope you don't imagine the zoom function being anything else than cropping.
Usually 20MP. If I really want to zoon I just switch to 12MP. But most often I do not use the zoom at all during shooting.
I just wish there was a faster way for changing these. (Also HDR) Would be cool if after zooming in 20MP it would just automatically switch to 12MP.
I like to play with the camera in the PRO mode, but on the go and so on I usually use the auto mode. Just sometimes I cancel the AI as I don't always want the corrections it makes.

The main camera is 12mp so you'll get no extra quality out the 20mp option.
