Camera app like iPhone? - Xperia Z1 Compact Themes and Apps

Hi. I'm a new z1c user and I'm loving everything except the camera.
Anybody know how I can get the camera to shift White balance according to where I tap?
On the iPhone for example if there's a bright spot and the picture looks too dark, if you tap a dark spot it will adjust the colors shop that the colors balance according to your objective.
Can the Z1c do this too?
I've only seen the manual mode which is far worse send more complicated than the standard camera app on the iPhone (which I hate as a phone)

It actualy only adjusts exposure (on iPhone).
I don't know an app that does this by tapping, but you can adjust it in manual mode by taping the icon between the flash and scene mode.

It sounds like you want touch focus. Z1c does this: go to settings in camera app and change focus mode to touch focus.

He wanted touch focus with touch exposure together. I know Iphone and HTC does support that but our z1c no.

Or just download Google camera app
It supports touch focus and exposure

So basically you're not getting that I'm asking about an app that does these things automatically like on iOS.
None of these do it

Snap hdr does it. I've used it. And I have used iphone 5 and then HTC one.

didn't work. It does the auto focus no problem, but the whites don't balance like on IPhone /HTC

Yeah it doesn't balance the whites as good as the HTC (HTC one's white balance > iphone's, iphone's pic quality > HTC one's) but for what we are left with, I guess it does its job done. But can be better. If ill find any other app that can do the touch exposure thing, I'll buy it and use it as my camera app on my phone.
Sorry if you had to waste few bucks on the paid apps I mentioned.
Try to contact snap hdr team and tell them about this exposure feature maybe they might listen?

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.

[Q] Replacement Camera App

Hey guys, coming from the epic I an missing the great camera options it had. Does anyone have a good app they use for pictures? I'm not looking for better output, but options like panoramic and whatnot.
Thanks in advance for the suggestions.
The stock ICS camera app can take panoramic shots, albeit in not very good quality. For a replacement app, I'd recommend Camera zoom FX (was on sale for 10 cents awhile ago). It really depends on what features you're looking for though.

Camera360 another good one. They have free verson
Has bunch features like touch focus

Camera360 as well here
I use an app called "Pano" for panoramic shots.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
lgCamera is also a good, free alternative with lots of options.
Is there one with zoom, or is that not possible on the nexus a 4G?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using XDA App
I'm using Camera Zoom FX and Vignette. Both are very good i think.
Both have a Zoom but of course only a digital zoom.
If you don't have a zoomable lense (nexus phones dont have) then only digital zoom is possible, which has a poor quality and you can do better yourself on your computer.

You realize since it's a fixed lens that any zoom will only be digital? Thus it's simply like cropping a larger picture to see a smaller section...
Edit: Didn't notice blackg3cko already mentioned this. My bad.

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.

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.

Camera Alternative

Hi i was looking for a camera with a tap to shoot mode, like the motorola one, but i can't find one =/ i tried to install every port but without success. (btw i know we can tap to shoot but it focuses on the zone you touch)
Try cameramx, just turn it on i the settings. Overall good app which invludes the live photo feature from IOS. Only thing is no 8x zoom but it does have what your looking for and its free

Thank you! that's actually a nice camera app! And with g4 tweaksbox i can actually use it with volume- in the lock screen
Edit: dam, actually the focus is a lot slower with a moving object
Got same question. Is there any real alternative ? I know there is a lot of camera apps on Play, but only stock support 4K and @120 video. Is there any port of camera from G4 or something else which work properly ? I feel slo mo would be just much better with a bit better bitrate.
