Hi guys,
Is it just me or you also noticed, that video calls coming from the rear/front camera area really blurry? Those are ridiculously blurry on 3g and still very blurry on Wifi.
It seems, like the image is completely out of focus and focusing does not work at all on the camera in skype?
Has anyone have sharp video coming on skype video calls from their rear/front camera?

I was gonna post about this as well. For a 2mp front camera (which is what lots and lots of standard laptops come with), the video call quality is atrocious!

It must be 4.2.2 firmware or something because after searching the HTC One forum I see others are having the same problem on other roms, I can't receive a call on Skype without it force closing on me it's very frustrating because I use Skype a lot.

Ok, months have passed and we have a new version of Skype, which is 4.4 and... Rear camera is still blurry, in video chats...
Front camera is sharp and beautiful, though.
Anyone else having the same problem?
I had a test video call from HTC One to my friends PC, and then from Lumia 920 to the same PC.
Voice on HTC One was great and video blurry, while on Lumia 920 the video was sharp and beautiful, while sound came out "tinny" and silent.
If only this issue was resolved...

Yeah mate I have exactly the same issue & it's driving me crazy. I have to switch to the front facing camera to get a clear picture, which is balls since I spend a lot to time showing stuff to people on Skype and flipping the phone over means I can't see what the hell they see. I was hoping the stock 4.3 update would fix the issue...nope still super blurry.
I seriously can't believe so few have noticed the issue...unless it's just us...
I have both n5 and htc one. Skype is always blurry here. Use it at home, on wifi. Wifi is good speed. Hangouts video calls blurry as well. Such a bummer.
Same issue here I was hoping for an update but nothing solves this problem. On top of that when you try to leave a video message the picture from both cameras comes out distorted.
Dear fellow forum users/Z1 owners,
I'm a new user of a Sony Xperia Z1. I've been using my phone for about a week now to take photos, and I've noticed that there is a problem with the camera display. When I move my phone to take a photo of another subject, the display actually lags behind and sometimes freezes for a second before finally catching up with my movements. Do any of you face similar issues?
Another question I'd like to ask, would be the vibration/movement of the lens as it refocuses, especially on macro shots. It makes this small "tick" sound and vibrates while attempting to focus, something which I've not experienced on other cameras. Is this natural or is it a hardware issue that I should get Sony to check?
Thanks for taking your time to read this post, and I look forward to hearing your responses.
Cheers,
Sonynoob
I must say - never heard for that problems.
I don't have that issues, my camera is working great, no vibrations, no lag - full HD recording or shooting picts - all works great.
Sent from my Z1
Just tested the camera in a quiet environment and I must say, it seems to produce the 'tick' sound before every shot...it only gets worse in macro situations.
Same goes for me. I think it is a normal thing while camera struggles to focus.

Had this lag too the other night trying to shoot outdoor. I don't know if it was because too much stuff running in background or if it's the camera, only happened once.
I get a clicking noise when using the zoom function on the camera, when I play back a video you can hear the click every time you zoom in or out, bloody annoying and really loud. I had a xperia mini pro that did the same and never even thought of trying the video mode on the Z3 till recently, ( had the phone 4 weeks). I also get very low sound when receiving a phone call, bit disappointing. has anyone else noticed these issues?

About the clicking noise, I think you're just hearing the focusing mechanism.

Yes I think you're right it could be the focusing mechanism, re when I had the xperia mini I'm fairly sure they released a patch or update which fixed it to some extent. Thanks for the advice :good:
Hello, I just had my S10+ and I love it. The only thing I notice is a click sound made by the camera module lens when changing from mode to another one in the camera apps. Like the lens adapte, and make kind of a 'click' sound. Is it a normal thing for everyone ? Or may it be broken or anything ?
Thanks so much, and hoping I was clear.
So you're not the first one to bring this up. I'm guessing this is your first Samsung phone with a variable aperture lens? I have this on my Note 9 and I guess I've been around louder environments because I never noticed the sound. I just testing this out on my N9 and I can barely hear the sound but it's there when I switched from video mode to picture mode. All the video and photos I've been shooting on my Note 9 for past 5 months have never been negatively affected by this mechanism. So far, everything seems to be in working order. I suspect it will be the same with the new S10 line.
I hope that gives you some better perspective on this feature.
although i bought this phone mainly for its photographic capabilities i also want to have the ability to use it's video recording..
and i can not....
i am getting a crackling sound every time i try to record a video..
i restarted the phone , i turned Wi-FI off (saw a video claiming that on some smartphone the wifi antenna messes up with sensors etc.. ) ,
changed resolution settings from 4K HDR to 4K to 1080 HDR and 1080 18:9 ..
it can happen in the 15th second , or in the 2nd , and hell some times i hear this sound even BEFORE i press the record button..
when i choose the video option i can hear something mechanical like the shutter or the video camera module getting " prepared" to record? no idea..
i tried with different apps like camera zoom FX or some other similar apps and it does the same sound..
anyone else facing or had that before? i haven't record that many vids on N9 but from the 10 i have , 6 of them have this issue...
no problem here
This sound?

I've got mine last week, it made this crackle/clicking sound since day one and I've already scheduled a repair!
just wanted to write an update to anyone that is or will face similar issues..my phone was swapped by Nokia's Care Center.... so i got a new N9PV
which means that the issue i was having was not repairable ..
Hey, that is my video! I still need to sent mine in
Mine started doing it after the Oct update. Mine does it any time the camera is open. I guess I need to call.
