what are you expecting to be "shared"?
no zoom on the camera app is the deal breaker?
are you trolling?
what is the point of this post?

Yes, as noted in the stickied FAQ, there is no digital zoom in the camera app like on other Android devices. As far as I know, and I'm sure someone will be quick to correct me, there hasn't been a real zoom on any phone.
Personally, this didn't bother me because the digital zoom always looked like crap lol.

You should explain to her the difference between a mobile phone and a digital camera. And if she thinks that she can get the best of both (all) worlds in a single device, perhaps you should tell her about this thing called ... money?

Bad idea, mate. Talk to a gal about money and all she hears is, "Let's go shopping!"

Nearly all cell phone cameras lack "zoom".
What you see in cameras labeled "zoom" is actually cropping, so you end up with a lower quality crop.
Explain that and she'll be okay.
Please stop the arguing in this thread, or it will be closed and infractions/warning PMs will be sent. Thank you.
Edit: Thread cleaned from all the nonsense. Please, keep this on track.
Explain that all she's ever had on any phone is digital zoom which is not supported in the stock Android camera app. There are alternative camera apps in the Market if it's really important to her.

Nobody asked for your opinion, "go bith and moan" on another thread if you think it's all ok.
Like I've already explained: "maybe it's not so useful for pictures (because it's a digital zoom) but it could be useful for videos in order to move attention on a detail".
Lack of 720p is another issue, however, 720p recording (just like digital zooming) is usually interpolated on smartphones, so it's not a big one. Moreover, you know it doesn't record at 720p from specs.

They down sample. There is no issue with downsampling. Upsampling (digital zoom) degrates the image.

Upsample. Usually on smartphones the sensor is not 720p capable but it has a lower resolution, so you get 720p recording by upsampling frames. However this is off-topic
its called crop it..done looks waaaaay better
I'm liking the responses

werd theres not really a big use for zooming in anyway just take a pic and pinch to zoom it looks fine tbh. Not a good reason to return a good phone lmfao tell her to send it back get a free phone to make fone calls and text and buy a digital camera so she can take some ugly facebook pics

Nope, video is downsampled from the sensor resolution.
720p frames = 1280×720
5MP sensor size = 2560×2048
The image captured by the sensor is downsized to the 720p size.
The reason cellphones aren't capable of 720p is because the hardware can't keep up with downsizing each frame that the camera is capturing.
Digital zoom in video means downsizing from the sensor resolution to the video resolution. Then upsampling the image information again to make it fit to the recording resolution. You're not gaining anything from digital other than introducing alot of noise.
Tell your girl to get an iphone.

So it can downsize to 480p but it can't downsize to 720p... interesting lol

Oops, I typed that out wrong. It can't keep up with processing the captured frames after downsizing.

Nope. There isn't any "downsizing", they are captured at lower resolution than the max resolution available (because of the bus width), usually the resolution is lower than 720p, then they are processed and upscaled to 720p.
I know the camera has something more than the 4 (even though it's still 8mp) but will it have slow motion recording, or does that require special hardware like HTC's ImageSense?
I think it record 1080p at 60fps. You can use the software of your choice to slow down the video. Or buy an HTC.
which HTC model can take show motion?

Probably not.
The camera, CPU, and storage should be fast enough for [email protected] You will need a camera app with a high speed mode. Then change the video from 100+fps to probably 15-30fps.

hello everyone?
does mate 7 has slow motion and fast motion video recording capabilities ?
i think no...any possibilities bros?

Hi guys i have xiaomi note 5, xiaomi mi max 3 and pocophone f1.
They all have about the same camera setup, however, on note 5 and max 3 (in miui 10) i have 1080p video recording at 60fps.
And on most expensive phone with strongest chipset, pocophone, i only have 1080p @ 30fps.
That is kind of nonsense.
Is it possible to have mi max 3 camera app on pocophone? Or is there any other way to record 60fps video with poco?

BSG 6.1 ,MIUI global Beta
I guess 60 fps does not mean all the way 60 fps .
I got just 28 fps on MIUI stock camera
I have same problem with Pixel Rom, Gcam cannot recorded 60Fps VIdeo
The A50 has just recieved a 120fps camera mod.
There are numerous sources that confirm that the S9 is capable of this.
[Unfortunately as i am a lurker and do not have an account i cannot post links yet so you will have to search yourselves but the sources are numerous]
It is quite obvious that Samsung limited this feature, perhaps in order to segment their branding or because they felt that it was too unstable.
Does anyone know if there is an existing mod for this?
I have a 144hz monitor and would love to start capturing footage I can watch at a higher framerate.
Thanks

Trying to figure this out. super slow mo runs at like 940 fps and slow mode like 240. My numbers might be a bit off. but it already its higher than 120

Oh i thought you were a developer. The S9 can record at 240fps but the actual video is only exported in 60fps and plays at 60fps. I can tell by comparing actual 120fps video with slow mo video i recorded myself without exporting it.

I see now. Lol. That's kinda weird. I'm sure it will come along soon enough mate.
guys.. just open the camera and go to the settings and chose 720p as a resloution.. it will record and export in 240fps and you can do whatever it is that you want with it!
