hello ppl!
i was at the beachfront fireworks display in aberdeen last night and a made a short clip of the fireworks display!
i have to say though the quality both picture and audio is poor - settings were on 'L' for the larger video which is the best setting im sure.
is there anyway e.g. via registry or something that the audio sample rate can be upped from 8khz + and for the video 5fps to be upped aswell.
My N70 had better quality!
thanks!
lol yeah, video and pictures suck on the diamond, and i'm sure its the same on the pro. i can't believe how piss poor the quality is, especially the camera. whats the point of having a 3.2mp camera if you can't take a clear picture with it.

the main problem with the camera is the lack of xenon flash - without it the dirty lens cover on the back casing really hinders the quality, taking the back cover off gives some pretty decent pics but its a lot of hassle but its still fine for a random pic.
main thing for me is the video frame rate and audio quality. can it be ammended anyone??
Is the camera quality as bad as lots of review say??
is it really "hit or miss" camera??
camera quality for me is really important!
thanks guys!

There are a few threads specific to camera. You can find plenty of information there.
Does anyone have any tips to make the photos crisper? They seems fuzzy

Sorry Back cam
The zoom is pathetic, I give it that. I'm visually impaired and frequently use the camera to read at a distance. Can't do it on this phone.

It's digital zoom, obviously you lose quality when using it.

All phones are digital zoom to my knowledge. This is the worst camera for zoom I've ever had on a phone.
not sure why people are complaining on smartphone cameras expecting to provide SLR like features.
3T camera is not bad at all, in fact it is better than in my HTC 10

... there's film over the lens? I didn't see it, and can't see it now
The iPhone with 2 cameras have optical zoom. So not all phones. Probably some huawei phones as well.
If you want clear zoom (for visually impaired) get a zoom lens that clips on.
As for fuzziness (this note is for OP) try fussing with the app. HQ mode etc.. Also is it low light or bright light?
get the google camera 4.2 apk very nice shoots
Guys i am from india and bought this few days back
Its snappy nice body built but camera quality is bad
Is there another app thay i can use instead of stock camera or are there particular settings in camera app like auto exposure or contrast or sharpness thati should change plz do tell
No root just wanna improve picture quality of camera here
Is it possible?
It's only you, this device's camera is the best at this price tag... Try to flash latest fastboot image again, maybe it solves your problem
"Camera quality is bad" ??
I'd suggest looking at the many various reviews of this device. Almost all of them rave about the camera and have sample pictures (which are outstanding).
What makes you think the quality is bad?
The camera of this phone is the one thing that is far better than the price. Must be something wrong with your unit. The quality is good. Very good.
I'm not satisfied with stock camera also, try this two camera apps.

Do yu use 6gb variant and it not what are all yr camera setting in stock app ( like contrast sharpness and all )
Hi, bought the phone 2 days ago, because it's not with 888, it's not with curved display and has a ultra wide camera with AF and macro capabilities with raw support.
To my surprise, the quality of the raw file from the ultra wide is worse than from the periscope - there are some strange bright dots when you zoom in to 100%, which lead to overall bad quality of the ready image. I guess they are the phase focus pixels, but they shouldn't be visible without any heavy editing.
So, is it just me, or the problem is global, so I know how to proceed with this? I'm leaving a crop depicting the problem.
Are you sure the ultra wide angle has AF? but yeah it looks weird...

That's why I chose this phone, for the af of the ultra wide.
I don't see it mentioned anywhere but as you have the phone you should know it better than me!

You are right, the Edge 20 review on GSMArena mentions the AF for wide angle. A good thing, but it's strange that the ultra wide angle pictures seem a bit blurry then. Did you try with Gcam?
Not yet.

Tried gcam, same story...
Which Gcam version you use? Try enabling Sabre and see if it makes a difference.
I tried the latest bsg, but removed it, cause the results weren't satisfactory or better than using the stock app as a real camera.

Hey did you manage to solve this issue? Any suggestions for the lackluster RAW outputs from the stock camera app??
The battle is legendary. Still no success defeating the defect. If it is a demozaicing problem, Motorola should fix it.

THanks for the reply. I wonder how happy you are overall with the cameras? I've found that the front facing one is quite dark and has WB issues. In general the photos coming out of the stock camera seem riddled with artifacts and oversharpened.

Camera Is great as I see in reviews from owners and websites .
I don't even bother shooting in jpg, this is Motorola and they suck in camera performance and resolution logic.
But, I shoot raw, which is possible even with the selfie cam, and after a minute of editing I get sharp and impressive images, and that's why I bought it - the sensors itself are quite capable. If I find a solution to the problem with the ultrawide, the phone is a keeper...

I actually own it. Reviews and (average) owners don't understand what we're talking about. Some offence.

Learn to make your own jpg and you'll be able to see the dirt in your wrinkles on the selfies.

Answered already here. Jpg from phones and actual cameras suck. The raw from gcam is also worse than using the phone as a real camera. Here's an example, learn photography if you expect miracles from a tiny sensor...

Hasli's LMC Google camera mod seems to be working better with the wide angle cam (no artifacts)
