Is there any way to disable the cropped camera preview for 4:3 pictures, in order to get it in the same ratio as later in the picture?
I'm talking about the stock camera app.
Nope. All the options available are in that radial menu.

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.
Is there a way to get all of the photos when viewing with the gallery to fill the screen without having to switch to landscape mode?
On my windows phone, using HTC's album viewer and scrolling thru the pics, they always were rotated the correct way as to fill the screen without having to rotate the phone, whether they were taken as portrait of landscape pictures.
This is a bit annoying.
Oh, and a second question, how about a way to make the gallery go into camera shots by default when I push the gallery shortcut.
Thanks all wise android gurus.
Hello, how many of you have Camera Zoom FX installed?
I just bought this app, after I take a photo holding the camera in landscape orientation, I then proceed to view the photo in the camera zoom fx's gallery, however the photo will always be shown in portrait even when the auto orientation is disabled on the phone's setting.
How can I fix this?

Image samples are always in 4:3 format.
Is it possible to change image format in camera app to capture still photos in 16:9 mode?
(Of course I know there are 3rd party camera apps etc. but nothing beats native support for 16:9)
I don't see the reason why not. Here is screenshot of my pixel camera settings. I believe both phones have same screen ration.
My HTC U Ultra has 16:9 and 4:3 modes.
16:9 is just 4:3 cropped so there is no reason why you should photograph in anything but 4:3 and then crop, to keep all the information.
Selectin 16:9 mode removes a big chunk of the information from the sensor. Sure it fills the screen, but that in itself is a poor reason.
Reason to have a 16:9 option is the same reason why most phone cameras have a auto mode. Most people just want to point and press the shutter and be done with it
Ok can anyone tell a noob what's happening when I cycle through the different Frame options in the Camera app? Is it the same photo just being cropped or is actually changing something different?
What is generally the best setting to have it on? 4:3 for a Portrait and 16:9 for a Landscape photo?
