[Q] Shutter in stock camera - Nokia Lumia 1020

Hello,
using the stock camera app on the 1020 does it still use the mechanical shutter?
The pro camera app is making use of the mechanical shutter.

Any app would use the mechanical shutter as it's all part of how the camera works.

But wouldn't it be possible to use a software shutter? Just like on other handsets that don't have a mechanical shutter.
Are there any 1020 users around here, who could check this out? :fingers-crossed:

Camera - any way to manually focus?

When working with the camera, sometimes the autofocus seems fickle and does not get the focus good. Is there any way I can do manual focus? Do I need another app for that?
Thanks

Yes just touch the screen when you are in the camera app. A small white box will appear and you can manually focus.

So long as he's using the stock Camera app!
No...he wants to set the focus distance by putting values like 5 cm, 6 cm or so...
This feature is mostly found in LG's cam appz

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.

What is the best camera app?

Which is the best camera app?
For me? Camera 360, free and best the camera stock
I like perfectly clear the best, it has the best focus and exposure features of all the apps I've used, though it is a little slow to load at first.

I actually really like the stock Samsung camera app shame it can't be used on CyanogenMod.
The stock camera has an awful menu system.

Grid mode for camera??

Is there a grid mode or rule of third in the stock camera app?
is there a way to add this type of feature to the stock if there isn't any?

You would need to download a new camera app for this. The stock camera app is still lacking features, and the view screen is not even the same aspect ratio as the pictures its taking.
Focal is a good camera app with grid. You can download it on play store.

Snap camera has that option. Its my camera app of choice

Hear about this in my research but it looks bulky, so many features for a camera app. I am not sure if many of them are necessary.
what is your preferred camera app? Do you use Focal personal?

Is it close to the stock camera. From what I've seen with the stock camera, it looks great and easy to use, not too much unwanted junk.

There isn't that much features. It got flash, white balance, scene mode, HDR, effects, exposure comp., burst mode, timer and settings which has image size, toggle exposure ring, auto-enhancement and grid mode. Yeah I use focal.
