Autofocus isn't 100% accurate. Let's just hope cyanogen adds an option for manual focus soon because this has been bothering me for a while too.

I wonder if you are talking about Andropan...I downloaded it last night and tried it out today and did not like it at all :-(

Sent from my CDMA Hero, sucka!
yep.. thats the name of it.. i remember seeing some BS samsung or LG phone that came with this feature stock and it looked good, so its hard to believe that someone hasn't made a good working panoramic picture taking device...
Hi,
I'm the developper of Andropan.
Can you tell me what is UGLY in my application?
So I can make it better and better
Which device do you use?
Thanks for your help
The Epic's camera app has panorama built in. Im on the Evo myself but my family uses the hero. Glad I lurked on this thread, hopefully the Epic's camera app can be ported over sometime
try vignette. is the best camera.

1.Starting the application into a black screen is a bit - distasteful and not user friendly. Add the buttons that you have when pressing menu here.
2. The Plumb and Level indicators are a bit hard to get right, you should probably think about over laying a set of arrows to tell the user how they need to move to get level and plumb.
3. Typical camera uses the trackball to snap the picture instead of menu or a screen tap (at least on our heros) This would make it more fluid.
4. Not sure how you are storing/retrieving GEO information, but its wrong...at least for me it is
5. Just in my office - it seemed like one picture would have a different light saturation than another frame in the picture.
6. Your stitching of the pictures seems like it has a VERY low error tolerance, and you might try looking at other ways of matching and stitching pieces together so they are seamless.
7. After you have one panorama, instead of showing it at the beginning, have a gallery button, this way they can come into a screen of buttons and actually navigate with out having to use hard keys.
The above was meant to be constructive - please don't take offense, I think you have a good starting point with the app. If you need help with any of it let me know, I have a pretty decent Java/Android background, just no time to make my own apps.

I didn't understand the difference between the two different options for creating a panoramic pic (I don't remember what they were called, manage and auto I think)
I also didn't understand the point of levels
Also it would be nice when the stitching occurs if the app looked for overlap and then removed the overlapping parts of the pic.
Another suggestion would be that when you take a pic that is part of the panoramic shot that you leave it on screen and then overlay the camera view over it so you can better line up and tell where the next shot should be.

i feel like an idiot.. i've had vignette (paid version) on my phone for months now and never noticed the panorama cam... gonna try it out in the daylight tomorrow to see how well it works..
Hi all,
When taking a picture close up (like 2 inches away) the camera loses focus and takes crap pictures.
EG: I move the camera close to the object and press the screen, the camera begins to focus and then focuses past the perfect setting and stays on blurry?
Does anyone know why this does this? The camera is obviously capable of taking pics this close up as it focuses perfectly but then continues to focus and ends up losing it.
Sorry if this sounds vague it's hard to explain it.
If you know what i mean and your aware of a fix for this then i would appreciate the pointers.
Also if there is no fix for this and you are aware of a manually focusing camera app then that would be great too.
Cheers.
Do you put it in close up mode?

Has anyone experienced problems with the camera app not launching when pressing the shutter button the first time and it will only launch only after pressing the button a few more times? This seems to happen when the phone has not been used for a while. ie. not turned the screen on for a long time.
Yep, I have a few issues with the camera app loading!

Oh bugger! the camera performance on my phone is pretty bad but nothing like what you're describing. I know it's a last resort but presumably you're on the latest software, have you tried hard reset?
It's not as bad as I described all the time, just frequently... always seems to be at important moments tho!!

Can you take some more portrait mode picture samples? This are not very good compositions.
The Coke can does not have enough depth in the background and the wall is just plain. Try something else and line it up straight instead of top-down.
Thanks!
looks like **** still.
I snapped this one this am. Looks pretty darn good to me and it's even in a low light condition!!
Edit: for some reason the picture isn't showing up
A bush
A few more
Here's mine
Some people cannot be pleased, no matter what.
These photos are great and just fine, but if you're the sort of person hell bent of crapping on the PH-1 no matter what, then nothing from this phone's camera is going to placate you.
It's really getting boring at this time, all the hee-haw about the camera..
What does the slider on the bottom of Portrait Mode control? The bokeh/blurring effect?

from what i gathered yes but the lighting control is sort of a manual exposure control. used it with the moto x pure and it came out fantastic
To me these photos look plenty good. I am comparing them with the likes of note 7 and op3.

It is an app update through the play store.
So I'm not sure when it started as I don't use my camera much. However, whenever i use any application that uses the rear camera (gcam, snapchat, stock camera) the image is very blurry. Dunno if it's because it can't focus or because of something else. Anyone have any suggestions in what to do?
How does it look when you take a normal photo then? Like is should?
I had that with certain kernels, the focus is locked at x distance. I upgraded the kernel (elemental) and it solved my problem.

I might try updating the kernel or just install stock again. The focus doesn't appear to be locked anywhere.
No dust in camera lense?.
