[Q] need some info before buying L

does XPERIA L really holds a good camera and is its camera better than neo l mini j u lww,
what about the exmore sensor
does it produces a good quality image.will CAMERA FV5 work on it.
i want to confirm before buying my first xperia

The camera is really good, you can see some samples on general thread. However, video recording is not so good, since the camera really lags with low light enviroinments. I think a custom rom will solve this problem

The best on the Xperia L Camera is the HDR mode, which comes without 3 Pictures and long processing times. :good:

I did a mini tutorial teaching the correct slowness even in environments with low lighting!
'Do what your fps will be high!
Open the camera> select video camera mode> choose scene soft snap> va Settings and choose the 176x144 resolution> then choose the resolution hd.
All done without any lag!'

Mod for camera app

To b honest i find XL camera to be worse than many 5 MP camera.. I don't understand why it happen.. So i m wondering is there any camera mod from any good camera phones around..?
I dont prefer playstore apps as they don't provide anything better than the stock app..
Thanks in advance

well,camera is decent.it's kinda below average when taking photos at night.the object must stand still,otherwise the photo will be blury.the rest of time,it's good.I also use camera jb+,it's a little better than stock at focus imo.I don't know if there'll be any camera ports since camera it's like a very fragile object in a phone.it can cause many erros and can easily be broken.btw,did you updated to 2.17?

Thanx for replying
Yes i did update my device to the latest version.. But still it is not that good..
When i browsed through sony Xperia z themes and apps thread i could find a Lenovo camera port for XZ.. Hope something like that wil happen for XL too..

There is some good shots in here from the stock Camera.

Everything I read though is that it needs good light. Outdoor shots with it have been pretty good so far for me.

Yeah i get it.. Good lighting is essential

Sorry man! I think that is an hardware issue!

If you're on 2.17, you can try downgrading to 1.36. Older firmware is way sharper

Hey Bro!!
Sony Is Known For Sound And Camera!!!
And Sony Advertised This Mobile By Saying Camera For Experts!!
Thus, It Confirms That Camera Issues Are Not Hardware Issues But Software Ones!!!
So, Wait For The Updates!!!
Sony Has Improved Their Update Services!!!
So Just Wait!!

STOP THIS!
I am no camera freak and I didn't noticed any difference between 2.17 and 1.36.I really believe that 2.17 is better due to video not lagging in low light(even if there was a fix on 1.36,it's more comforting this way).I didn't noticed any differences between photos and I don't waste my time looking for the issues.The only things that annoys me are low light photos & video "flashing" in some specific light conditions.But I accepted it,I know I can't do **** about it and I'm waiting for devs to create other android platform based roms or Sony to update our phone and hope it will get better.
So,stop this.The camera is the way it is and some settings won't do any magic and bang,the camera will work as you wish.
