I know it says Sony / Samsung
MI4i camera in indoor situation is like having so many angry ants brawling (noise is messed up)
and some said that it might be samsung sensor since it has so much noise
the sony one isn't making such noise
Dunno if it's true or not
no proof no picture so far
But indeed the camera result is way too noisy indoor
any app to check which sensor got shipped with my piece??
Can confirm the camera is too noisy indoors.
It's true. Too much noise!
did the new update 6.5.6 have any effect on the camera noise?
some already got it but mine hasn't

I was wondering if there is a app or someone can make the screen get bright right before you take a pic with the front camera kinda how there is a "flashlight" app for phones that dont have a led light and use the screen brightness just wondering if this would work for night time pics
searched around could not find anything on this at all so sorry if it was answered

i doubt it will work since it is facing you and not the real camera
Well what i was thinking is you take a pic of yourself with the front camera that the screen will get bright white kinda like a flash but just making it as bright white the screen can get for a second to see yourself better at night

I agree. That's very similar to my Mac desktop. The screen flashes right before it takes a self portrait. I bet an app can be created, but the issue might be auto focus. The front cam isn't all that great with auto focus so when the screen flash it might show a white blur.

So I'm just wondering... I've seen threads about this in multiple areas but i haven't seen a fix for it. Are there any solutions to the gs3 taking blurry pictures? Before you take the pictures they look fine but no matter what you do, when you take the picture they turn out blurry. I've gone through 4 s3's and they all have this problem. I've used multiple camera apps on different ROMs on all of them with the same result. Its very frustrating. On the front facing camera the pictures turn out absolutely horrendous. Pretty sure its a defect with the s3 in general.

Take a q-tip, clean the lens.

Maybe tap the screen and focus
I don't have that problem nor most of us so it's certainly not a defect.

Its not an issue with the lense. Its the actual picture after processing that turns out blurry. This is a picture of myself taken with the front facing camera. It did not look anywhere near this blurry before taking the picture.

Well i notice it personally. This is a screenshot of the camera app before the picture was taken. Perhaps its just something that bothers me more than other people.

Aosp camera isn't always the best and it looks like that, also because of lighting around.

I think the problem is you are stressing the Gorilla Glass. This is one of the best most abusive tests that I have seen performed to prove that Gorilla Glass is tough to break.
Just kidding, I personally don't see anything wrong with the picture considering it is not a DSLR and the fact that the lighting is horrible. A lot of factors go into taking a good picture besides just focusing on the subject.
Picture seems about right in a low light, being a front facing camera, and on a smartphone. You are not able to compare a true dedicated camera (for now).

Did you find a solution to the problem? I'm facing the same issue with my S4.
All I see is some smoothing from post processing. There's nothing wrong with that picture.
I think perhaps you don't realize that the front facing camera is not a good camera. It will not take quality photos like the rear facing camera.
The picture is blurry because the quality of the sensor. The post processed picture is simply smoothed to remove the pixelation from the low light/resolution.

So im thinking about getting a nexus 5 but I want to know if the autofocus issue was ever fixed?? I love taking photos and videos but if the autofocus makes the camera not really useable in a lot of circumstances then I probably wont get it. Tried to find another thread to see if this problem was corrected by developers via a rom or a flash or if it is hardware related.
I have never had an issue. And I take plenty of photos.

+1 for photos. Not for video though. The autofocus is terrible in videos. It's constantly focusing every 2-3 seconds and it makes the video look really odd.
To OP: No, it hasn't been fixed.
The videos I have taken look just fine. I have a puppy and took videos of her running in the snow and they all came out good.

Not my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFxHkuAfj48
Notice the "pulsing" every 2-3 seconds? That's what I mean. If yours doesn't have that, that's good, but most of us have that problem. I guess it's only noticeable when you don't move the camera.
So based that it is feburary, I'm assuming this is a hardware issue. The video breathing problem is ridiculous and also happens on the Nexus 5. That's my concern. If it has been solved in a rom, then perfect, but if this problem is unfixable then thats a dealbreaker for me. I do alot of videos with my phone and I dont want to pay for a $600 phone if I cant do something basic as record videos on it.

If you are that interested in videos, you should consider in investing an actual video camera. Phones aren't really meant to meet the standards of camcorders and other video capture devices, rather than to just catch an interesting moment of someones live with a casual photo/video. I know it sounds rather inconvenient and superficial, but thats just my two cents on the subject.
Edit: I've never had trouble with the breathing video. But then again I don't really use that option that much.
I can't reproduce the refocus whilst holding it still / panning left or right. I can only reproduce it if I move the lens further or nearer to the object. Not a tiny amount that's analogous with a slight wobble or the human conditions rather feeble attempt at stillness - no. I have to almost exaggerate the movement to trigger autofocus

for me it refocuses evety time i move the phone, left/right, up/down, or further/closer. but it doesnt refocus at all when im moving.
not to be graphic but I filmed a video of some dirty deeds and quality was awesome. phone was not moving. I believe some roms have more issues then others. some roms the video is extremely dark and some roms when I take a camera picture with flash is snaps the photo to fast and just captures the flash.

I'm loving the phone so far but been a little disappointed regarding the camera. The pictures taken during the day are a big improvement over my one m8 but night time or indoors are hit and miss but overall I'm happy.
Video on the other hand I'm finding almost unusable. The continuous auto focus is very aggressive and seems to be always attempting to focus when your filming anything that's not stationery.
Is there a way to turn off auto focus and just have touch to focus on video like the m8?
Thanks in advance.

Sadly there doesnt seem to be much we can do till sony releases a fix.
Theres a big update planned for the camera app when android L is released with the z4 next feb/march, but hopefully we wont have to wait quite that long for an update/fix.
Sony have never been quick with updates though sadly.
That's a shame. I will have to keep my fingers crossed that they sort a fix soon.
Thanks for that pal.

no option to turn it off
but turn off steady shot
and set metering to spot
it can help alot
:good:
Find the 1+1 camera app.If you just want video with nothing fancy use it.It can focus(tap to focus) during video recording.
Both these tips have much improved things.
Thanks very much guys.

Yea...nothing to worry about. Turn the camera on and it won't rattle anymore. I believe it's the OIS.

It's just the auto focus it was the same on the S5.
