How is camera quality after hack?

Hello, i would like to buy HTC Sensation. I want great quality of camera.
I saw many patches, drivers and modded camera. They improve compression to zero. Is the picture quality really improved?
Can i ask for some pictures with a modifications?
Thank you very much.

I'm hoping for some positive replies to this, the camera on my XE is a big disappointment.

Bro..in my opinion...our smartphone is really smart for manyyyyy things...but unfortunately still not smart enough to replace real camera. I have sensation amaze camera mod in my ROM..but DO NOT expect Magic . it gives ok picture in good light and everything. Android is something else..this is my first one and i am in crazy love with it..all modifications..tuning..but if a great camera is what u desire... I don't think it has much to offer..

Pls can you upload some pictures in a full resolution? Thx

These were taken with the Stock sensation's camera. IMO its pretty badass.
There's also a thread here about photos taken with the sensation.

In my opinion, the close up shots are reasonable but those taken at a distance are very poor. At least that's the case with my XE. Here are some examples below.
Full res, cropped. This is a pic of my fireplace, no more than 8 feet away.
This is a close up pic, full res but cropped. It shows good detail.
This is a pic taken with my previous phone, a HTC Incredible S. In my opinion, the camera on that phone was far superior to the one on my XE. (Full res, cropped).

I agree with UKseagull, close up and bright light settings are pretty good, but low light and distance ones are pretty bad. i use stock camera. the biggest drawback is low light settings id say. but at least its pretty fast at taking the picture when u press the capture button on the screen

I am quite fond of the camera... It provides poor photos indoors though, outdoors it is far superior.
http://flic.kr/p/aCoxnU Here is the link to my flickr, quite a nice photo imo off the stock camera I believe.

These photos are taken with a modded camera?

The posters say they are taken with a stock (unmodded/default) camera. Note that the quality of the picture will also depend on the circumstances (close up/distant, dim/bright lighting, etc.) and relative skill of the user.

Originally when I bought my sensation I hoped it will have better camera but my first impression was the camera is crap despit the fact it 8 megapixel.
I have used HTC wildfire s and u won't believe it the camera on HTC wildfire s is better than sensation and I'm talking about is sharpness its colours and the quality and I noticed that sensation camera picks red as pink or some what light red also the sharpness on sensation is very bad even my hd2 had better sharpness and colors but not the quality also my cousin iPhone 4 camera which is 5 megapixel is better than sensation in dark iPhone is still much clearer then sensation but I guess you can't have the best thing in life

The reason why pictures appear worse than they should is the amount of compression HTC has implemented. It really deteriorates the quality.

I've just taken some pics using manual ISO settings and no flash, as a comparison. This is with the standard XE camera.

Shery4life the camera on the wildfire s is not better by anymeans my co worker has that phone and we both know that phone camera not that great. She always want me to use my camera when we take pictures. When I work with her again I'll take a picuture with my sensation and her wildfire s lol not even comparable lol.

How do you rate the nexus S camera?

I am specifically talking about the still picture camera.
When I compare the nexus S with other phones using the gsmarena photo comparison tool, it actually seems like one of the best 5MP camera around and gsmarena says "good 5MP snapper" and they say it's noticeably better than galaxy S.
On this forum(and the rest of xda) on the other hand I have seen many people say that the camera is mediocre. I want to know what do they mean by that? I understand since it's only 5MP you can forget about widescreen photography but how is it as far as image quality is concerned?
Do these people mean mediocre compared to something like galaxy S2 or you think it just doesnt cut it for a reasonably good daily snapper?
I have used galaxy S camera and I found it satisfying minus the lack of LED flash. Will I be satisfied with nexus S camera?

The camera is awesome! we should rate it with objective perspextive. Meaning, do we take shoot with low light? Any camera will not get maximum rrsult out of it.

+1, I found it had better stills than my old Galaxy S. I compared it to an iPhone 4, and it seems to be quite a bit better for point and shoot scenarios.

Ya it really does look good in the gsmarena tool and the photos on flickr for the nexus S. Most people complaining about it must be the ones who think "the more megapixels the better" which is so wrong.

It wins and life and is a bawse. That is all on the Nexus S camera.
. It really is AMAZING though. The quality is outstanding
Nexus S (GSM i9020a)
CyberGR Hybrid ICS (v6)
Eugene's Kernel (Speedy-7)
OC 1100/100 (ondemandx)

It's good, but my pictures would come out better on my old Epic.
Still a great camera though.

As the others have said, definitely a solid camera in comparison to many phones. Megapixels don't stand up to a good lens and sensor.

I'm afraid the people who rate the camera mediocre is because of lack zoom that is instead absolutely useless and destructive. I'm really happy about the camera and sometimes pictures are better of the digital compact camera (Panasonic, 4 years old) my wife uses.

IMHO, its good for indoors but not THAT impressive for outdoors, dont exactly know, i also went for a comparison between the pics taken running CM7 & stock ics. i went to a conclusion that cm7 camera pics were far better than ics(dont exactly know the reason).
maybe the focused-preview and the camera shutter are not calibrated?
anyways..i will rate it 8/10.

I think the camera is great, especially with ICS.

I just got a nexus s 4g I have an epic 4g touch and the picture quality is good on the ns4g not as good as the e4gt but its really close I like it.

I had galaxy s before nexus, and I think on galaxy camera is much better for outdors, for indors i found that they both suck.

IMO, when taking still pictures, Nexus S' camera is on par with iPhone 4's.
However, based on what I observed, iPhone 4's camera shots brighter pictures than Nexus S'. But still I think Nexus S is one of the best 5-megapixels shooter.

A picture is worth ... well you know the rest.

I find it really goog for a phone camera.
Picture with flash are sometimes too white for me.

It is obviously not as good as SGS2 & iphone 4s, but still fine for daily pictures n videos. No complain at all!

I have never found a phone camera that takes as good pictures as a cheap, decent digital camera, though SGS2 comes close. For outdoor/long shots, the NS is acceptable, but with closer objects the noise is really noticeable.
I used to have a Nokia N95 and I think it had better camera than NS.

S4 camera better than lumia 920 and iPhone 5

The s4 has been ranked second after the untouchable Nokia 808. http://bgr.com/2013/05/24/galaxy-s4-camera-test-iphone-5/ funny enough the over hyped HTC one is no where to be found.
I think our dear phone has been proven to be worth the money once again.

Read your post twice. Still desperately trying to find a sense in it that would justify opening yet another camera thread. Camera still superb at good conditions. And really crap at lowlight and fast moving objects. Shutter speed is pathetic. ONEs video/sound recording also way better. And I tested both for weeks. But wait: that's been basically said on every second page here.

I hate the way reviewers just say Galaxy S4......WHICH VERSION????
They are both very very different!

I think Samsung could do better camera. In low light conditions it is crap, shutter speed is still very low and on 1080p videos you've got tearing smearing with picture zoomed in.

You know, low-light (especially with motion) is the weak-spot of the GS4 camera but we have plenty of examples of high shutter speed images in the various camera threads.
Captures of hose water, kids jumping and so on are "frozen" as long as it's medium light or above.

My low light experience with the S4 is superb. It's able to capture, in night mode, even pictures made in a dark room.
Anyway, use the flash if you in a dark place

I would agree, the s4 really has got itself a very good camera. Im an outgoing person and I take most of my photos in high or medium lights. Its very seldom that I would take pictures of something or someone in low lights. I would use a flash if i really want to capture them with as much detail as possible.
Heres my very first shot of my s4 after i got it out of the box. It was very cloudy thst day. I cropped the fountain area only.

All cameras are useless in low light unless you can control the shutter speed and keep the camera stable. Even high end Cannon or Nikon cameras need a good flash or a tripod to get good results in those kinds of conditions. If you have unwanted motion in the framing then it's game over. At the end of the day, if you can't get light through the lens and onto the sensor, you can't expect to get good pictures. There are dirty tricks that can are employed, such as a high ISO speed, merging images, or a large low res sensor, but at the end of the day you're still making sacrifices with the image.
This low light camera business has become a proper skit for selling smart phones.

low light conditions with Night Mode One.

Shocked at photo quality

OK so im coming from a long line of iPhones and after getting bored of iOS this is my first venture into Samsung. I took this photo at the club I work at last night and seriously, what is going on here? The flash pics were pretty crap too, finding it very hard to focus after pressing the shutter.
p.s yes i know how to take good photos normally and no there isnt any plastic over the lens.

Sure, tried every mode available! Let me upload a similar iPhone 5 pic, hold on.

I also noticed the pictures weren't what I expected.
They tend to blur quite easily.
I'm hoping a software update will sort it.

It's a 13MP camera, you're either doing something wrong or your camera is bad.

Definitely not doing something wrong lol, you can clearly see its actually a good picture in terms of light pickup its the smearing like an oil painting and thats nothing to do with the megapixels either

I agree with the poster, ive had many phones and by far the note 3 has the worst photo quality ever, im really dissapointed for a ~750 euro device to have such a bad camera. 13MP looks nice in the specs but numbers is not everything.
To me it looks like there is some kind compression on the image, maybe the firmware has some kind of compression method to keep the camera up to speed for zero shutter lag.
Hope samsung will look into this and give us an update in the camera firmware.

Yes you are right, the bright and especialy daylight pictures are pretty nice, but when things get dark or far away they smudge out. You can see it happen in the bottom 2 pictures in that post, the last 2 are obviously lower quality than the flowers for example.

thanks for the link

What do you expect? The camera has a 1/3" sensor, a FX SLR has ~28 times the sensor area. This means that you would need 28 times the light (or time) to shoot a photo with same quality.
This is not possible because in the conditions where your photo was shot you would need a tripod and long exposure (which is not useable on moving objects) to make a photo which has comparable quality like an outdoor picture!
Anyhow, I have the N3 for one day now and I am happy with it so far, especially with the better camera!

Well it does have to do with the megapixels because the more you have the less the typical blur will be visibly apparent as a result of movement, which seems to be the case here, whether that be movement by you or the subject.

It isnt blur, it's the denoise that samsung is using. This is a software issue, among other things obviously. Whether or not they fix it I have no idea.

Until manufacturers either quit trying to outdo each other with more megapixels on the same size sensor, lower the megapixels on the same size sensor (like HTC did with the One), or increase the sensor size (such as Apple just did with the 5s), low light photos are going to have more and more noise. The smaller the pixel, the less light it captures, which results in worse low light performance.

Here is the metadata for anyone interested .. It seems like the camera shot the picture in night mode

best is to wait for the next nexus or else get a sony device they are the best in camera

I second shhbz here - wait for the next Nexus or get a Sony.
I don't find that Nexus 5 camera that bad though - sure, its not the best in the world, but it takes pretty good shots for what it is.
You could also consider a Samsung Galaxy K Zoom. The LG G3 is not a bad cameraphone either,

The camera is a lot better IMO with HDR. You aren't buying a $600 phone so they cut the quality a bit but honestly the camera is the only thing that feels inferior on this phone and even then it can be tweaked a bit and runs great.
However the screen is good. I find Samsung washes out their screens with overly bright colors. The only complaint I have is the contrast in full sunlight but the full brightness makes up for that OK.

G3 and xperia z1 out of budget.. Nexus is approximately 150$ expensive in India than the original price.. So not worth waiting for next nexus

How about a oppo n1 with the 360° 13mp camera for great selfies?

Nothing to be confused about
If u want better camera and battery go for s4
If u want fast updates and pure android skin go for n5.
Depends entirely upon ur priorities

I was there. Got n5. Hate about camera and battery life. Switched to s4 and flashed GPE rom. Camera is nice and battery life is infinity with the battery kit, but really missed the speed of the nexus 5. Now i switched back to n5, with elemental x, undervolted, underclocked to 1.7ghz. Battery life is improved significantly and camera is much better now on 4.4.4. Camera on my first nexus 5 with older rom gave me a headache, focusing and taking a picture was slow, but not anymore.

I finally decided to stick with nexus 5 after doing many camera comparisons with the s4, I think nexus 5 has a better and more reliable camera.. S4 is totally unusable indoors even with perfect lighting.. Outdoors there are details, but colors are crap.. Saturated yet extremely unsharp display.. Nexus 5's crisp, sharp and almost near accurate lcd display beats the crap out of s4's display.. What's better with s4, just a little longer battery and better speakers..

In a mall while testing cameras,in first picture, s4 has a warmer photo, unrealistic, crap details, blurry, on the other hand nexus 5, better color accuracy, slightly better details, a bit steady (Now i know what's OIS is capable of).. Overall nexus 5 takes much better photos..

Nexus 5s are known to have a bit of a warm display, but compared to the s4 it still better, the s4 just brightens the colors to make the display look crisper
