camera shutter lag and autofocus speed - General Questions and Answers

I am using a lava pixel v1 that has a very poor shutter speed which doesnt have settings as well and also very poor autofocus speed and after clicking the capture button the camera takes almost a second or even more to actually capture the image. is there any way out? I tried different camera apps other than the google camera which is the default however there is no improvement at all.

Only the preinstalled camera is compatible with that camera. So other apps will not work or may face problems because of compatibility issues.

Front Camera Takes Pictures in HDR Mode

I'm using the default camera app on Beanstalk and I've also installed the 4.4 camera app but I experienced the same issue.
I don't even have the option to use HDR on the main camera and I've looked through the settings, but can't find anything relating to it.
By HDR mode I mean the front camera takes several pictures with different exposures and merges them together, it's annoying because it takes about 2 seconds and you must hold camera perfectly still to get it not to be blurry.
If I use the front camera while using Snapchat I do not have any issues. Any idea what could be causing this? How else should troubleshoot?

Bug in the camera app?

Hi all,
Has anyone noticed this? When you use the camera app on the Mi 4i in Performance mode, it runs a lot slower than it runs on Balanced mode. I have noticed that everything else works much faster and smoother in the Performance mode, but only the camera app lags. If you switch to Balanced mode, you will notice that the camera works perfectly without lags. It should be the other way round!
Just FYI, when I say 'LAG', I am referring to the time required to switch from rear camera to front camera, switching to gallery, HDR shooting etc.
Can anyone else check and let me know if this is happening?

yes, you are correct. There is lag when switching front to back camera and turning HDR on and off during performance mode. But, this seems like a Software issue (the camera is very sluggish anyways), so there might a future update from Xiaomi for a fix. Remember, MIUI 6 is still very new and still has some issues (RAM management, etc.), so I wouldnt worry too much about it.
cheers!

Shutter lag in the camera!!

Do anyone experience the shutter lag in the main camera application ??
With or without the hdr mode on , the camera takes nearly a second to capture the image.
I know about using other apps and setting the shutter speed manually but I prefer lg Camera app.
So does anyone know any tweak in the files or something to remove shutter lag ??

in 5.0.1 and 5.1.1 in G Flex2 this is absolutly normal...even my G3 in 5.1.1 have this "issue" and isnt lag...its the phone first save the photo and then is thumbnail is showed...this will dissapear when 6.0 come to this phone, because when i update my G3 this kind of "lag" or what you can call it dissapear from my G3 so, let's hope 6.0 realease fast!
i dont like this "lag" eighter.
Ohk , hoping to get mm atleast at the end of April !

Very slow camera capture speed

My OP6 is very slow to capture a photo when pressing the shutter button on the stock camera. I changed to the GCAM, which is a bit buggy, but will capture a photo very quickly. How can I speed up the stock camera? I only need the stock camera as when I double press the lock button to open the camera, it won't automatically open GCAM, even though I set it as the default app.
Also, neither of the apps I have support HDR, why is this? I can't find it anywhere in the settings.
Edit: I am on the latest update available for the OP6. My stock camera app only has 3 options at the top of the screen, timer, size and flash. GCAM is the same

Question Strange post processing bug when zooming on stock camera

Has anyone else also noticed photos come out with weird, massively boosted brightness and everything when taken with 2x zoom or higher on stock camera? Strange thing is even at 1.9x zoom everything is fine but 2x and beyond the photo is basically ruined because of this. Very annoying.
HDR and other enhancements are turned off, yet this occurs.
Doesn't happen on GCam. Any idea/solutions? Thanks
Tried here. No issue. And 2x zoom photo from stock cam was better than GCam 8.3 for me.
Didi you activate HDR and IA options in stock cam?
Yes they're all deactivated. No problem upto 1.9x zoom, but as soon as 2x zoom is engaged, there's a sudden although small change on viewfinder white balance. And final photos look extremely bright and noisy compared to 1.9x and below, as if some weird filter is put on. I've downgraded the camera but still happens.
Btw, bootloader is unlocked, not sure if that's got anything to do with it.
Its interesting if you don't have this problem. What's ur software channel and build number? Thanks
Without this bug, you'll generally get better zoomed images on stock camera because it'll use 64mp crop instead of only 16mp recognized by GCam. But this bug ruins it.
Unzoomed though, GCam's HDR+ is still the best.
Just discovered this thread.
Yes, I have the same problem. But it looks like the effect is not the same everytime. Maybe depending on light (indoors vs. outdoors)?
I noticed it happens when i zoom in in worse scenes. It could be that the automatic camera mode is overcompensating by cranking the iso way too high. Have you tried using the pro camera mode?

Yes, but I don't think pro mode uses 64mp crop like auto mode, just a crop of 16mp, which doesn't have much detail that's required during zoom. Also it's annoying trying to switch to pro mode everytime.
