All I have to say, is that the camera on this thing looks like it does an awesome job to me!

Yep I agree! Some of those samples look really sharp & detailed to me but I'm not really that picky about smart phone cameras. I think the cam on my nexus 6 is pretty good so I'm looking forward to the pure edition quite a bit.
Since I use the phone for basically all my "photography" (if we want to call it that ). I like a good quality camera. But given I'm uploading to Google Photos. I hope they don't diminish the quality of photos too much. I'm using the "unlimited" option, so Google scales things down a bit if they desire.
But if I want to save off a good quality pick to the SDcard, that's a nice option to have.

I'm considering this phone as the next one to get. As far as it goes, the camera (good or bad) is not a deal breaker for me. I don't use the camera enough to care. To each his/her own.
Disregard. I posted in the wrong forum. Wasn't paying enough attention to where I was!
The daylight and average light shots look fantastic, but the night shots aren't impressive. I feel like if we were able to get OIS we could get by with slower shutter speeds and therefor less noise.

I wish they had OIS and laser focus.
I think a 13 or 16 MP is plenty, they could focus spending the extra money on other stuff.
I hope this camera is better than the OP2 and Nexus 6 I
As long as the camera is better than the m8s (which I am almost certain it is) then that's a good enough upgrade. The m8s camera is so horrid tha its the main reason for my switch.
Well its Using Sony's new Exmor RS IMX230 which from the sample photos look damn good!!

camera looks really nice to me.. good enough w/o OIS.. That night mode seems pointless though
Wow, looks great! Still gonna play it safe and wait for a few reviews tho.
I don't care so much about the lack of OIS... (would have been a nice option) but I'm interested in the quality of slowmo videos (720p/120fps). I owned a Sony Xperia Z3 and there slowmo was awsome by the way "steadyshot" worked very very well !! Now I have a Note 4: pictures are looking great, video is looking great but slowmo is a shame! I think LG G4 suffers from the same problem...
I hope Moto x style will perform better in slomo...
If the moto x style cam is able to produce similar pics of quality like my note 4...that would be cool thing...

I read about this earlier today, HTC really sticking to their innovative guns.

Windows Mobile 6.5 is good, but outdated.
The newer Windows, Windows Phone 7 maybe good in the future, looking at its good UI and potential, but as of now, there are less applications and less functionality.

Its good but i think it FPS is less even then the digital camera.
But good phone it can replace the the low mega pixel digital camera

Only if you are coming from the iPhone. If you are an Android or WM 6.1/6.5 user, you will be highly disappointed by how Microsoft tried to copy the iPhone simplicity without giving you the Android versatility/customization.
As for megapixels on a camera, absolutely worthelss unless you want to blow up the photo to a 6-ft x 9-ft image.....
So I take it it's another increase in megapixels in lieu of a better sensor?
Definitely worth check out, thank you for the post

I disagree, I too had an iphone 4s. IMO this camera is just as good, with more features. But to each his own!
Ive taken several pictures and videos. I think the camera is great and super responsive. As soon as I touch the shutter button the picture is already taken and in my photo gallery.
The zoom on it is fairly decent too.
Maybe we could use this thread for people to post what custom settings are working for them. I hear the camera needs a little adjustment out of the box.

I just wish it had hold to focus like the Galaxy Nexus (it was there in early and later versions, but gone after one of the updates). It worked very well. I like to be more in control of the focus. But the burst mode kind of makes up for it. I don't use it much but it could be pretty handy.
I love this camera as well, but I will say the focus is a bit of a problem. Any slight movement and focus is gone and it has to try again. Great for stills though
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Seems like it has a tendency to overexpose especially when outside. May need to keep it at -1 on exposure.
I'm pretty happy with the speed. No shutter lag at all! The Note would have motion blur sometimes in direct sunlight.
The quality, when viewed on a pc, is very good also. Still need more time to play, but I'm a pretty happy camper right now.

Thanks for the tip. I noticed it kept refocusing while i already had my daughter in the center of the frame(of course three year olds move a lot)
I took about 150 photos yesterday at the Highline in NYC and can definitely say the camera is awesome. Nearly as good as my Canon S90. Have never had an iPhone to compare, but my iPhone owning friends were very impressed.

I thought my Note took better pictures, but it may have to do with auto focus and anti-shake on the the Note.

The only thing I ever use my FFC for really is face unlock and honestly, once you set that up and snap a few shots of yourself in diff lighting, etc. It recognizes you almost IMMEDIATELY. Also, I take some shots of myself with my ffc every now and again when I'm out and about... In bright natural light it looks pretty good. Look at it this way too, the iPhone 4S has a 0.3mpx ffc as well.
I agree, the quality isnt that bad if you have good lighting. Cant expect too much from a phone almost 2 years old

Honestly the 4s ffc blows the sensation big time.. but also the sensation tends to get quite dusty so before i use ffc i take back cover off clean the dust from the lenses and voila !

The quality is honestly horrible but its a ffc and doesn't need to be hd so its not that big of a deal. Almost all phones have horrible ffcs haha. And the Sensation just turned a year old a month ago lol.

certainly it belongs in the top 3 which makes me think why other sites namely phonearena ignores the video recording aspect when they rank phones in terms of camera, anything to make the iphone rank higher
Great outdoor camera, i find it pretty crappy in low light without flash. Pics look almost cartoon when zoomed in.
OT:
I didn't want to open a new thread for such a small issue. Did you guys check the new Note commercial, looks great to me.
Why no off-topic thread for GN3? Should be there somewhere, I just can't find it now.
Having the 1020 ( and my wife still uses the Nokia 808) and the Note 3 the results seem pretty legit.
I don't know why they included the 1020 on the test, Nokia is 2 generations ahead in this field. There is no way to compare the 41mpx PureView sensor to the other sensors in the pack ( 6 lens optics by CZ perfectly augments the sensor resolution). Most of them are Sony BSI and the difference in IQ is 90% made by software and 10% processing power. For now, nothing is worth comparing to 1020/808.
Note 3 takes good pix on daylight, but on the other hand, it's almost useless at night. For the functionality of the Note 3 and its sector, the camera is the best out there no question asked.
Iphonearena thinks otherwise. They have placed iphone 5s on top.

Not quite sure I understand your comments. The iphone ranks second last, just ahead of the HTC One. I have the HTC One and the camera is mediocre at best. Even night shots aren't as good as advertised.

+1, night time shots suck unfortunately. but thats pretty much the case with all phone cameras.
One thing iPhone is good at is speed of taking pictures.
I used to have a one and pics where quite mixed.

My question is do you think the slow focus time is software and will get better? If not I'm selling my nexus and keeping my One. Does anyone else have kids they use their phones to take pictures of? I love my nexus but I can't get it to focus quick enough to get a picture of my son. The HTC One takes them so much faster than the Nexus.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
The Nexus is better at low light in my opinion and also at portraits or scenes with no moving people... I'm very impressed with that aspect, but when I'm taking portraits I have a good camera for that.

Generally the stock Android camera app is regarded as being pretty terrible.
Replace it with a store app like Focal (which should be getting an update for the Nexus 5 soon, if not already). The camera itself is great.
Thanks, I hope that is soon.. I tried using nexus at 5mp still just as slow

Ok so I understand this is very unscientific but I have the Instagram app on both the One and Nexus... Instagram snaps photos much quicker on the one. I'm not sure focal is going to help dramatically... Any thoughts?
