[Q] Which camera app is best? - LG Optimus 2x

I will buy LG Optimus 2x for a month, and i realy need good camera(photos and video), so i have a question, which camera app is best ? i will not using stock rom, i'll using probably cm7/9 or something else, sorry for my bad english

Hmmm, first of all good choice to root and flash your O2X because stock LG rom sucks. But the thing is, the only real good thing about stock LG is the camera... (oh the irony... )
Anyway, when you're on CM7 you can flash a camera mod for the rom to improve the camera a bit, but in my opinion it's still not as good as stock. I don't know if there's such mod for CM9 though...
As for camera app, I'd suggest camera360. It's free and works great!

I prefer Camera Zoom FX..

Thanks for answers, is there camera app which is ported from lg stock rom ?

Don´t think so, but the stock camera app is great, try copying it from /system/app/ before you flash a ROM and then install it again.
But make sure you put it in /system/app/ before install, and you must have Root for this.

What is so good in stock camera? There are modded camera apps which can make higher fps and bitrate videos.

I personally think that the stock camera is better than anyone in a custom ROM, because I find it to be the fastest one, I’m also a fan of the UI. But that just my personal thoughts...

@Mylleranton, i think that will not work becouse custom rom doesen't have some libs for stock camera...but i'm not shure.
@powwow88, higher fps ? please give us a name of that camera !
@sjcunha, ok, i'll try it when i buy phone

for cm7: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21956617&postcount=1639
These are exchanging the base camera.apk(not 3rd party camera apk) so you can still use camera360 or whatever you like with it.

I prefer Vignette It makes great pictures with high contrast

Camera Zoom FX works nice
You have many Options to edit youre Photos in much ways. The Photos look awesome.

I'm using the ported stock camera for CM7, it's both quick and makes great pictures and also works best for video recording.
You can find there download link under temaseks download links.
And thanks temasek!

[Q] Cyanogenmod vs Stock Camera/Videocam

Is there a huge difference in the cam/videocam quality between the Cyanogenmod and the stock rom camera applications?
Which one do you think is better?
Personally I found both to be rather disappointing. I use Camera360, it shows more vibrant colours, the flash isn't over-the-top, and has lots of effects.

Downgrade from CM9 and a Camera question

Hi.
At the moment I am using the Nova HD Plus ROM, which is a great ICS Kang, but I sadly cannot record a thing with it. Tomorrow I am going to a Sports event I would like to take some videos.
Is there something I should be aware when downgrading?
Also which ROM provides great quality videos. I used to use temasek`s KANG ROM and since he is back, I might use his ROMs again, but are there any ROMs with better video quality? Also, which kernel to use with?
Thanks in advance!
Dont think that you should worry about when changing rom. Except that you have to do a full wipe!
Go for Tamaseks KANG and Etana Kernel. Best performance and stability.
hi
The camera problem have not solve,you can download and Installation Other app to take video

Due to the lack of media acceleration, video recording doesn't work yet on CM9. We just have to be patient.
Hi!
If you would rather not risk a downgrade you can download an app to record in standard definition. I don't recall the name of it though, but I'm sure you'll find it around here if you search for it.
And I think a full wipe is enough, not sure if a "backtoExt3" is necessary though.

but I tell you that the camera that comes with the firmware in the archive records video in high quality ugly and lags, the replacement camera for the same on the other driver makes a positive trend

wow they changed the icon for arccamera.apk. why did they even put in effort in doing that lol.
SERIOUSLY speaking, the improvements in HD video recording is obvious. it feels like its much smoother and faster now when panning from dark to light environments. the shutter sound for video recording is gone, and the shutter sound for camera can be disabled by changing the shutter sound to "Tone 1"
good work LG ^^

I tried it but you cant make videos with Cymera. So there is obviously no problem with hd video lag...
^ true
Cymera is very good for effects and editing, it's like Pixlr-o-matic with camera feature, though the quality of the photos are definitely lower than stock camera...
Not Working.

LG camera pro

Hello people.
A friend in another forum wanted some info about the p880 wether to buy it or not and wanted me to imfom him about the weaknesses of the 4X.
One thing in my opinion : The CAMERA APP.
After exchanging pms he recommended me some other app for me to test in case there is an improvement.I tested the LG camera pro and these are my observations
1) The lighting quality is equivalent to the modded camera app v5, since i had the tweak installed i didnt see any improvement nor drawback.
2) This app has many options to choose from such as audio and video bitrate quality.
3) Most importantly it has an option in both photo and video capture to set the autofocus to your need.To mention some of that setting it includes auto , infinity m macro , fixed and others which seem to make the difference at least in my point of view.
There is nothing to lose and test it for yourself and see the results.No root required.

This a completely different app. The LG Camera Pro was developed for the LG G2X/Optimus 2X. It's a great camera app, although i do like the O4X modded stock camera app. AS far as changing the audioand video bitrate, you can also do that with the O4X's stock camera. Although, i believe you can only do it through the hidden menu. 3845#*880#
So does it work on the 4x?

+1. Hence why i prefer the O4X's stock camera app.
yes at dark places the lg app makes better pics, today i see bad quality too... really grainy
I too agree that the stock camera is better.I use this only to record video with autofocus disable .

[Q] Camera app replacement

Hi,
I m just wondering what other camera app that you guys can recommend to replace stock camera ? Something that is faster and have good image stabilizer, filter is just added bonus. For day to day/indoor shooting most of the time. Thx
camerazoom fx, perfectly clear both these r good. If you install a 4.2 ROM someday, the stock camera is indeed fast
Will try, thx. I m on 4.1.2. The camera is no diff compare to stock ics
