New camera update brings the grid and some - Essential Phone Guides, News, & Discussion

If you haven't already, grab the new camera update. Grid was added. In fact, we got three variants, including golden ratio. Very nice Essential. I'm liking this device more every day.

Not sure if it's just me but the mono camera seems o be better too.

With the recent updates the camera is much better. Love it!

I came from a Galaxy S6 and I find the camera very acceptable. Portrait mode is a pretty cool feature as well! The only real thing I miss is the voice feature like saying shoot to take a picture.

I came from my wife's S6 as it was spare and my phone was a OnePlus One.
I'd say the camera is slightly better on the S6 still but it isn't far off.
I only found the S6 "say shoot" late into using my wife's phone. Total gimmick [emoji1]

New update brings a massive improvement to HDR. GCam is still better, but the gap is slowly closing.

Settings/and or app for camera

Can anyone recommend some good settings for the camera or a good app? I'm going to a concert at the end of the month and want to take some pictures. Thing is, it might be low light and no flash is allowed apparently. My digital camera is a piece and had never taken too many good pics so I'm going to use my thunderbolt. Would live for someone to share some ideas.
Thanks

I've used camera 360 from the market since it was new. It's very nice and full featured plus allows you to remap vol buttons to take pics. Great effects also.

I'm played with the free version in the past. In the paid version do you have to deal with nag screens?

[Q] Camera Questions

Hi everybody, I have recieved my N5 2 weeks ago and Im loving it. The only problem I have is with the camera. Lets face it, the camera app is not so great and Im curious if there is a good replecement for it. I have a samsung galaxy s2 from almost 3 years ago with 8 megapixels and it takes much better pictures therefore I know it is the camera app, not the camera itself. Yes, Ive tried some camera apps from the play store but none of which I tried really work great. I am more curious in ports from the lg g2 or galaxy s2-4 if possible? What are the best alternatives or what is possible? Thanks.

I will try Zoom FX and see how that works
the camera app is fine, no issues with it and taking fast and motion shots. maybe its something you need to learn?

ill adjust exposure occasionally, but rarely change anything. but i do not rely on autofocus, ever. i touch to focus where i want it focused. just pressing the button and getting a general focus is satisfactory, i like making sure what i want gets focused on.

Found a small bug when changing the flash led options (off,auto,always on,4th one???). When always on is enabled and then the button is then pressed again, the LED does not go off. Apart from.that it's a great app.

I can't replicate this on mine.
Well, i have received an explanation from a bro,which have find the same situation. He just think that it related to brightness. When the sensor detect the brightness is enough, the 2X camera will run, if it detect brightness is not enough the camera will change to 1X camera. Sothat, when the light in a embarrassing situation(no brightness enough and also not realy dark) this issus will happen,two cameras switch and switch, realy quickly and also again here is a kind of explanation ,so am i.
Try video Pro

Yeah I see what you did there XD. Neat trick.
High light/contrast on the computer screen and no light on the Keyboard...you're asking for problems.
Have you tried using the Pro video app. That's going to get a better shot than the standard camera app.
While I can't possibly see the reason for attempting this kind of shot in low light conditions. I have sort or re-created it on mine but the camera wants to focus on where i hold my finger/thumb; which has next to no visual queues for the hardware/software to recognise so it will do what your are seeing.
I agree that the camera has become a little sluggish in 2X mode in low light. But to be honest I wouldn't have bothered until you posted this.
It's doing exaclty what I would expect it to do under the conditions.

Question Samsung s22 ultra HDR blue cast in highlights

Hi guys new to Samsung after many years aways (my last true Samsung usage was a Galaxy S2. I bought a s20 plus but didn't get on with it at all)
I have a snapdragon s22 ultra and am getting used to the ai hdr applied to photos. Obviously very different to Huawei (who I feel still have the upper hand) but I've picked up some issues of reflections and highlights being cast blue or purple and it's very unfortunate.
Anyone else seen this? I think Samsung have some work to do, in the same vein as the sports mode or shutter priority mode to avoid blurry photos of our kids or pets.

i know its not ideal but have you tried the "remaster photo" setting when opening the image in the gallery app ?

Thank you have tried but doesn't fix it. I think the ai is misreading scenes and applying the effect to reflections and brighter white colours
you could try using pro mode, i know it doesnt fix the problem at its core but would help you take better pictures

Appreciate the assistance. My only gripe with Pro mode is upping shutter speed alone still leaves you with shoddy looking but less blurry images in lower light situations. The huaweis show just how much images are fixed in post using ai - their Pro mode on the mate 40 Pro produces barely usable images as the chromatic aberration and noise just goes mad
do you know your way around android, you could try extracting or finding a huawei camera apk, signing it, and try to install it on your device, may not work, but it may also with some manipulation, wont do any harm to try

Yeah I'm into tech but not that inclined. I'm just hoping Samsung makes some changes to benefit all
I get this type of image with nightmode on ultrawide lens, check the red patch around the yellow night bulb,i think there scene optimiser is not working properly in some instances, when I use pro mode or extra raw app this doesn't show even with dialling same settings as nightmode image
