Photo taking problem

Hi,
Does anyone has the same behaviour :
I am selected as "touch and press" to take a photo.
The first time it works, but for the second shot, I ve to press totally to take a picture. Same for the third ...
If I close the photo device and reopen it, it works again the fist shot, and not after.
It 's very embarrassing, because when you press totally, the picture is taken automatically when focus is OK, but not when you want.

I have completely the opposite. I touch the first time and nothing until I full press, then every time after that I can touch and it focusses.
It's weird and crappy.

I have Touch and Press selected and if you touch (keypad lights up so I know I touched) nothign happens. You have to press and then of course if focuses and then takes the picture for you.
Touch and Press is very useful in order to focus first and then frame your shot before pressing to capture.
Not working. all the modes seem to be the same AFAIK.

On mine, it seems also that every mode finally lead to "press ttotally" that autfocus then shot

I've gott exacly the same on my Diamond...

Same Problem here, sometimes AF works or not.
even keeping the Finger on the touch button (hoping for AF to activate) seems to trigger digital zoom instead (without sliding the finger)
Any Solution yet?

HTC Touch Diamond GER (Stock ROM)

Same thing happens on my device. Touch and Press works on first shot, then the following shots require Full Press. Quite an annoying problem.

something wrong with camera or autofocus?

problem with autofocus...when i turn on the camera,the picture is blur.sometimes it takes a few seconds for the autofocus to really AUTOFOCUS.sometimes it doesnt do anything and picture stays blur..how do i fix this?
sometimes this problem occur but sometimes not..
it like depending on the mood of the autofocus..
one more thing can be detected is when you try to take a picture when its blur, instead of the bracket turning green, a red 'X' appear in the middle of the bracket indicating that the autofocus is not working..
please help me out here coz its a shame to have a camera not functioning properly eventhough u have a 3.2mp camera..

i hav the same problem in low light conditions
I just configured my camero in mode to fully press to take the pic, and i wait till the diamond just autofocus the picture

How to turn off the screen while taking photo?

When I launch the camera, the screen must turn on.
When I press the power off function, the screen is truned off but I can't take a photo.
Any software to soft this problem?
Thank you!

WKtasks function>Backlight off from ok-button long press and AEBPlus actions screen to do that.
CoolCamera
I've tried these 2 applications, but they both don't turn off the display when recording or shooting.

Out of curiosity, why would you want the screen off anyway? Surely that means you'd have no idea what you're taking a picture of?

In fact, I am a detector. I always need to spy on someone and take photo secretly.

Autofocus

Hi,
Almost every camera in the world has a halfway-click that focuses, measures the light and then takes the picture when you press the shutter button all the way.
On other phones (iPhone), where there isn't a halfway -setting, this is done by taking the picture when the user releases the button, which gives much greater control over exactly when the picture is taken.
Do you know of any program (camerazoom, snapshotpro etc?) that works this way? The stock camera app doesn't and it's quite detrimental to the quality of pictures you can take.
This means the camera needs to auto focus when I press the trackball button down and then take the picture within a split second when I let go of the button, since it no longer needs to measure light or focus. I would really love this feature.

Hi ,
Go to my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551904 the program I mentioned has this option also .

Thanks! Will check it out!

There is a workaround that i use that is effective on my mT3G. I turn auto focus off. That makes the camera focus at infinity. With these tiny lenses, infinity can start at less than three feet. So anything farther away than that is in focus if you turn off auto focus. I use SnapPhoto Pro to turn off the autofocus.
If you use SnapPhoto Pro autofocus, you touch the screen to focus and let go to take the photo. That works well. It also has a continuous focus feature which works very well but drains the battery.

lost camera focus after phone returned from service

Hi all,
i got my Z3c repaired:
replacement of the touch layer - display itself was not replaced
battery replacement
back panel replacement
clean-up
after that, i am no longer able to focus in the camera app. i tried Open Camera - same issue.
any ideas please?
attached is the sample pic taken in optimal environment and conditions - 25% of the original size.
thank you!

me too i change battery and Screen...
this suck why wont focus now!! and i ve Unlocked Bootloader and i can´t use Sony Companiom.

I might have a similar problem, but it might be my imagination...
My phone was currently serviced by a 3rd party company. Whole screen assembly changed (touchscreen died).
The phone DOES focus, but using touch focus, a circle is placed on screen but the camera will only focus when you press the physical shutter button half way OR you press and hold the onscreen shutter button. Was it always like that? I was under the impression that the touch focus option would focus immediately after you touch the screen, but I might be wrong. The firmware is 23.5.A.1.291, android 6.0.1
