camera settings question - AT&T LG G3

really quick, where is the image stabilization feature, ISO, and the white balance options? I can't find these 3 for the life of me!:silly:

I know. Pretty stupid if you ask me. This camera doesn't have the settings the G2 has. Not sure why.

LG opted to have less bloat so that's why. I think the camera is fine how it is, although options are always good.

Try a third party camera app with those settings, it's possible they're there just the stock app doesn't have control of them

good point, any recos?

Sorry no, as long as it goes click when it's supposed to that's a good enough camera for me lol
But I've seen them, there are more advanced camera apps in the play store, perhaps Google it?

Try this ... A Better Camera

I also recommend A Better Camera. It's what I use and I can confirm that even the free version allows you to control the ISO and White Balance settings (along with lots of other things too). I haven't seen anything about the stabilization settings, so I think you are out of luck there.
PS - you can change the stock action of holding down the volume down key when the screen is off and it can start A Better Camera instead of the stock camera if you want. That's what I do. I think I'm doing this with the G3 TweaksBox xposed module.

Image stabilization.... it's hardware, you can never turn it off

Try the stock Google Camera. I did several shots using it and the stock and favored the Google shots over the stock in 2 of the 4 comparisons. It doesn't have a lot of settings but ISO is one of them.

is there a way to snap pic faster?
Turn of review in the camera settings or download an app

Not sure if there's a way to capture a picture faster.
If you're trying to get a perfect moving shot of something, maybe you can set the capture mode to continuous.
wonder if there is a way to get the camera app from the sensation phone to work on our phones
You can't.. Cause sensation pixel density is way different and its firmware is different

download fxcamera from the market.
Yeah, buy the MT4G slide.
Lol, I kid I kid.
But there's no way to do so in the stock camera app. Maybe a 3rd party camera app will be your best bet.

fx camera is a nice app

Best camera app and/or settings.

I don't know if it's just me or is it difficult to take a nice & clear photo with the Charge? I have young girls and try to capture special moments, they end up blurry.
Any recommendations for an application/settings?

wait till they get older.... j/k
I believe it's more of a hardware thing rather than an app. the shutter speed is only so fast - and even with some apps that take quick bursts, it can still be blurry.
that being said, I have found that Camera ICS (thanks Jihad Squad) to be the best for me. if your phone is rooted, then installing droidwall to block internet on this app will remove the ads.

I haven't tried Camera ICS yet, but in trying to find a camera alternative, I tried many including Camera360 and a bunch of others. But I found stock to be the best (gonna try Camera ICS after this post). It has many good features and options compared to aftermarket. My settings are as follows:
Outdoor visibility: Unchecked
Focus mode: Auto focus
Scene mode: None
Timer: Off
Resolution: 2560x1920
White balance: Auto
Effects: Normal
ISO: Auto
Metering: Matrix
Anti-Shake: Checked
Auto contrast: Checked
Blink detection: Checked
Image quality: Superfine
Guidelines: Checked
Review: Unchecked
Shutter sound: Off
GPS Tag: Unchecked
IMO, the Guidelines and Anti-Shake options are the money options for the stock camera for taking decent pics.
^^^^ These settings and the stock camera are the best above all camera apps I've tried. Thanks!

Are you tapping the screen on the spot you want to focus before you snap? I always get well focused pics.

I personally have no issues with the stock Samsung camera app and it's got a great set of features.

Ditto! Also I found the stock camera is faster than other 3rd party cameras.
Does the Samsung camera have 360 panorama?

Yep. See my attachment.

No its not. Select Mode on the main camera interface to the left of the shutter button. Then select panorama.

That's why it required a download from the Samsung Store on mine? Perhaps, Check your device to see if it is pre-installed....would be a better way to say it.

My post wasn't meant to sound condescending and I apologize if it did. And yes that would be a more appropriate way of saying that.
But back on topic: I had the panorama feature right out of the box and after each clean flash. Its possible it was removed in the ROM you're using (if any).

Any workarounds for DPI changes, the camera really freaks out if the DPI is different than stock
360 panorama is different from panorama.

360 Panorama is pretty much photosphere.

I see no need for anything other than the stock camera as it's fantastic to me.
I agree that the stock camera app is good. I tried the Google Camera app but did not see how to make it save images to the SD card.

How does everyone feel about the camera?

I'm a bit disappointed as there is lots of noise in the 13mp camera and the pictures are very grainy. But for the price it's pretty good.

I love it. It's great if you know what you're doing.

You're not necessarily doing anything wrong. You probably need to look at your lighting, you're ISO settings, etc. It isn't the best performer in low light conditions but if you muck around with it a bit you can get some awesome shots out of it.

I have my ISO set at auto and fine set to 100%. I took some photos outside on overcast day and when I zoom in it's gaining. Looks good otherwise.

White balancement with stock camera app is way off! It's a good camera for the price anyways

How do you update the camera? I'm also on version 5.1.13.12? Or is that the three updated version?

5.1.13.12 is the current version.
Up until now I pressed on the focus button and I took the pic. Now this doesn't work.
Am I wrong?
You now press anywhere on the screen apart from the focus point.
Also by tapping and holding the focus button you can lock focus? Was this there before?

Those are both new features I believe. The new camera update is super nice. I'm even getting pretty good low light photos. I'm shocked.

Thanks, I was just wondering.
Haven't tried the camera a lot with the new update. I'm eager after these comments about the quality.
How is it updated? Through Play Store?
Yes. If you'll be able to update camera app it'll be able in play store.

Thanks. I haven't actually gotten the phone. Which is weird because I decided to buy it this late in the year. Pretty excited to install the update for the phone once I receive it.
Edit: Just started wondering if the this can be installed on the XT1572 Style..
Hey guys, how is the exposure improved? Other than low light improvement, I sure hope the overblown highlight is fixed as well. The overblowing problem makes its photos less attractive than others.
