Hi, is there any mod to increase camera mega pixels? I thought this because a review in Russian from Htc ONE that see the camera is from high quality but there is a post-software which decrease to 4mpx.
Anyone?
This is insane bro,its impossible
No, the sensor is what it is.

what kind of drugs he is on??
Some phones indeed use less megapixels than it's capable of taking (I remember the Evo 3D did that in 3D mode to make smaller files), but the htc One sensor itself is 4Mp, so that's hardware limited. They did this on purpose, because more megapixels doesn't necessarily mean better quality. In fact, because of the fewer megapixels in a larger sensor it catches more light

I've noticed that the camera of the IS blur parts of photos a lot. I noticed this problem on subjects with finer details eg. skin, rocks etc. It tends to blur or supress the finer details within the subject making them unacceptably too soft.
Opinions?
EDIT: I meant to say NOISE REDUCTION
Nothing like this for me ... Pictures are perfect ... I love the cam ... Maybe its cuz u zoom in too much or something.

Hmmm, I never zoom though.
Or maybe its just our diff opinions ... For me its perfect ... Maybe u expected something better

I agree.. I'm a photographer and would love to use the IS camera for some projects.. they obviously -in my eyes- compress too much.. It's impossible for an 8MP camera to produce files under 1MB..
Was'nt there a patch for that or is it only for rooted phones?

I hope this is just a software problem and hopefully they could patch it via an update.

I'm no photographer, but I noticed the file size as well, too much compression.
And waaaay to much noise reduction.
Also, you can switch of standard widescreen to normal 4:3 which results in this:
5:3 = 3264 x 1952 = 6371328 = 6.4 megapixel
4:3 = 3264 x 2448 = 7990272 = 8.0 megapixel
Hopefully we can turn off noise reduction and/or compression in the next update. Shouldn't be too hard for HTC to disable stuff right
Yes... I just upgraded from HTC Desire and I found that pics are not as detailed as before...
The compression thing should be an option, like many other DC.
I noticed the same with my IS...
My Camera 360 app's night enhancement mode is unusable now.
My N1 took beautiful sharp pictures of this same spot I took.
Now it's all blocky, soft, and washed out even though I've maxed out the resolution and size.
This makes me mad!
If it can take macroshots well, why can't it take landscape / non-macroshots well too?

Here's the patch for CM7 (N1). Root is required as it is replacing a file in the /system partition.

We dont have root yet though. Makes me sadder =/
HTC should update the firmware and fix this themselves. I wonder if theyll have this problem on Verizon's Incredible 2.
I've send an email to HTC support just out of curiosity of their official response.. Although I don't believe they'll say something significant. Companies tend to defend their choices..
when i load the photos to my laptop, i found all of them a little bit red...
I really can not be satisfied with this so-called 8 mega-pixel camera.

The most terrible scenario is using zoom. You would want to move forward a few steps, it entirely defeats the purpose of zoom.
We should rally this and send more samples to them.
What email contact did you guys use?
Hopefully they patch this with the Gingerbread update!
Maybe they had used to the bad quality of camera, because from now on, HTC is really not good at the entertainment field in mobile phone, no matter camera or music.
instead of posting "awesome" pictures this phone takes, can we face it that the camera is not one of the best and maybe somebody can help modify some values in order to fix it? if one uses motorola stock camera for example it is obvious that it takes way better pictures than the stock camera our phone comes with, especially in low light environments. thanks!

It's not one of the best and neither has anyone claimed it to be the best. It takes decent quality pictures. And frankly for the price it sells it has
a pretty good performace to cost ratio. If you want bette camera's you should look at HTC One, Xperia Z which have better sensors in them.
Picture quality is mostly dependent on sensor used and not much can be done by changing couple of values here and there.
On a side note, Vic Gundotra has said they are planning something big with camera's. So lets wait and watch what they do.

Whenever manufacturers pull unexpected moves, I always get a bit curious as to why. Now, I'm perfectly aware of that megapixels doesn't mean much for the outcome of the photo, but it seems that because of the low MP in the HTC One camera, the pictures don't seem to end up as detailed as in 13MP shooters, and the low MP show again when you zoom the photo.
I'm still getting this phone, though. It's the only one that's interesting right now. Lagdung can take a hike.
Good to see that you have seen the light. I flurted briefly with an s3 which was not a bad device but doesn't compare with the 'one.'
The camera has it's pluses and minuses compared with other top end devices but, for me at least, the pluses considerably outweigh the minuses.
I am confident that you won't be disappointed.
Do you use your phone to snap pics of your mates down the pub? 4Mp with 2um sensor pixel is perfect. Fast shutter even in low light and decent file size.
Do you use it to go out and capture windswept vistas at the finest detail level possible? If so then there isn't a phone camera out there that will do them real justice - take the Canon and do the job properly.

actually there might be one phone Nokia 808 lol
Correction: 4UP not 4MP
anyway, the camera is pretty good for general use, as long as you dont always keep zooming in on the images. quality is fine. at least it blows the Nexus 4 camera out of the water
The larger pixel size equates to a faster shutter speed that makes sense. Pictures are so good.

Many cameras blow the N4's one out of the water. It's crap.

Don't forget about OIS. Obviously that helps with videos, but it seems to really help stabilize the hand for quick shots as well.
Does anyone else's camera do this even when underexposing by -2?
anyone? nice to confirm if it's not right.
I've also noticed issues when taking pictures where there is very low overall light and a single bright light source as well as very bright photos (outdoors with Sun reflection).
The phone seems to have an issue balancing the light exposure. It appears to be software related. I can usually find the happy medium after tapping different areas to find better auto focus/expose areas. Using HDR mode also mitigates this problem, but introduces blur sometimes.
I'm confident it's a software issue that will be resolved.

Digital cameras are inherently god awful at high dynamic range shots. What our eyes see is many levels of awesome better than what a camera can process. Go find a point and shoot and take that same picture and you'll find the same problem. Either it will blow out the light or it will under-expose the frame.
HDR modes are helpful in mitigating this problem, but they're still a cheat.

It really depends on how much brighter it is outside than inside. But yeah, SLRs have crazy big pixels so yeah, they tend to be better with dynamic range.

Camera remains my biggest disappointment. Videos good with the high gain mics though but this over exposure or whatever the issue is with light sources ... GRRR

By "too noisey", if you mean like what people got in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317507 , then you better just post in there.

You must realize, that the sensor is not a Full Frame one, so if you use high ISO sensitivity, it produces noise. Even my D7000 produces such noise when the ISO is cranked up in low light.
