Hey, how's it going everyone? I am new to these forums, and I have attempted to do some searching around, but I have yet to find a true answer to this problem. So, I love my Samsung Infuse. I just got it roughly a week ago, and I am basically switching from my iPhone 4. An issue that I am having is that I want to be able to take pictures in portrait mode and landscape mode, but the camera doesn't seem to be designed to take pictures in portrait mode, as every picture I take like that, the picture always comes out at some 90 degree angle. Is there any way to really fix this, so that I can take pictures in both modes? Maybe a handy application that I haven't seen in the market? I just want to be able to turn the phone one way and take a picture, which I don't understand why it isn't implemented in the first place. If anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
I am not sure if this will help what you are trying to do or if you already tried it. There is a turnwheel kind of icon on 1 of the corners when the camera application is turned on.if you click that, there is a option for scene mode. if you click on that, you will get various options inside. 1 of them is portrait. hope this helps.
^ i dont think that is what the op means.
op you ar eright the previews dont detect the phones prientation, but they show correctly in the gallary so the phone is detecting the orientation. if they are 90deg off when pulled to the computer then it would seem there is a bug in the orientation, i havent tried copying to my computer, nor sure is there is an issue beyond the previews only displaying in landscape mode.
I just realized that if I switch to video camera mode and apply a particular color effect setting (sepia, emboss, posterize, etc), and then switch back to camera mode, I can snap pictures using that same setting. Of course, I have to go back and revert to normal when I'm done playing.
This is probably old news to most, but I just discovered this today, and thought it might help some others that may be as slow as I am, lol.
Hey guys,
Been digging around a bit for a solution but haven't found anything so far...
Anyway, HDR is normally set to "auto" in the camera app. Over the past few days, whenever the HDR is used if auto decides to use it or if it is manually selected) it turns everything an extremely blue hue. I initially thought it was taking a negative image but green sections still appear OK.
Any ideas how to stop it doing that, while still being able to use HDR? The phone isn't rooted, so all I've been able to do without a full reset is clear settings of the camera app.
And it just seems to be Samsung's app - Snapchat and Instagram work fine.
If anyone has any ideas let me know
Hi Guys, I am using stock camera and I am recently upgraded to Android 9.0 The problem I am facing is whenever camera detect faces, it automatically goes into Portrait mode. This is annoying especially in night time when shooting under artificial lighting condition. While taking group photos, its unnecessarily blurs the background and edge detection is also not good.
I would like camera to take normal photos not Portrait. I have checked all settings but there is no way I can disable it. Really hoping I get my working GCAM as it was working on Android 8.2, till then have to use stock camera

Lol, sorry to say, because I'm rarely use the camera. Good luck to find the answer :good:
Only to me, even with master AI off, the camera changes mode by itself (without announce it)?
When I try to focus an object too much close, i see that objective changes... I'm almost sure that use "super macro" mode without showing the pop up.
Someone else is facing this issue??

It's not an issue, that's the expected behavior, when taking pictures the phone AI recognizes some scenes and adjust camera parameters to some presets, for example, focus on the sky and a preset "Blue Sky" will be enabled, focus a small river or running water and you will get "Silky water" mode.

Seems that certain things like Super-Macro are still automatic with or without AI enabled, but it will not change image settings or detect scenes without AI, so for example of the blue sky, it will not say that without AI, or if you take a photo of a dog it will not know it is a dog
But if you go too close to an object for normal lens to focus on, it will switch to Macro lens

I have to agree with you, this phone is complete garbage, I have the same issue, I turn off master AI and it's still switching to super macro just without showing the pop up, and no my picture is an up close shot but still within the main sensors focus range and it still switching to the crappy detailed cropped wide angle lens, it's so bad using this phone the experience has been terrible, was my first Huawei phone and I will never get another one again... I can't even take a simple photo, only method that works is trying to click your shot before it switches lens
See below example at the same distance from subject in low light, the image I want to be able to capture all the time is the bright normal one (just about managed to snap before it switches me, which isn't always easily possible), the one it's trying to force me into shooting is that dark garbage, that's how stupid this phone is that it tries to force me to take that instead of the other, it's been this way since I've had this phone, it's just plain and simply bad...
I know this is an old post, but nowhere else ever talked about it, so I think poster here is completely right, it does this in daylight also obviously, which makes it harder to notice, but will cause the photo to have worse background separation and a lot worse detail

Just what I was looking for. I have the Huawei P30, and I really like to take photos of my self-made food. What I have noticed is that even when I turn off the Master AI, the camera STILL automatically enhances the color vibrance of the images. This also happens when I take photos outdoor, especially the sky and trees.
I really hate it because it looks fake! Girls may want their picture to be vibrant and all, but I am more of a realistic kind of guy. I realize that shots from iPhone are much much better. Even though they seem kinda dull compared to the same images taken from the Huawei P30 (or any other Android), pictures from iPhone are the closest things to what you see in real life.
It's pretty annoying that the Huawei P30 is the first phone I bought for myself, by my own money. Maybe the next time I need a phone, I will switch to Apple for better/realistic photography.
But then again, iOS is boring and suffocating AF.
Argg... choosing the right smartphone is tough AH.
