Hello. I want to ask about its camera.
Burst-shot, that was on Z(also ZL and ZR) doesn't appear on SP. I know that the camera module of Z and SP are different. But its difference is not so big, and SP seems has enough power. So I wonder whether burst-shot feature can be enabled on SP.(e.g, porting camera app from Z)
Is it possible in the future?
I think burst-shot mode needs proper camera -hardware- to work
There should be apps out there that can do 'software' burst-shot by taking pictures of your video feed (so max resolution would be 1080p)

i think this can be possible coz capturing rate of SP is pretty good and i think it will be possible if someone ported this for SP or sony implement this feature in future update
you can try this app to check the accuracy of your camera ... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wombatix.burstcam&hl=en
and this app able to capture 20 photos within 2-3 sec which is good i thnk
Thanks for replying. I hope that be going to better way....

ZR is my dream phone well the Z is but due to so many hardware issuses and bad design I want to go with the ZR
But can the camera match my previous i9100 S2?
My S2 was incredible at taking photos especially at night. No noise at all.
The Samsung used SONY camera module till S3 Galaxy. The ZR takes incredible pictures once you do the settings right and for critical pictures use HDR Cam+ or other utilities like I do.
ZR gets better photo than GNexus. The camera sound effects can't mute by sound settings, I can't take photo of my sleeping kid with this. It's good camera among phones.

I keep reading on review websites that the Z and ZR camera is horrible its really really bad
But some people are saying thats cause those guys are morons and don't enable HDR
can anyone confirm how the Z and ZR camera matches other phone cameras?

wow thanks holy crap
the S2 i9100 is significantly better sharper and less noise than the Z and ZR
the Z does look better than the ZR
how the heck a old phone like the i9100 S2 can have such a better camera? how is that even possible?
it's sony's post-processing and crap compression that screws up a great camera... it's the software :/
so can this be fixed using HDR?
what about rooting and flashing custom rom etc?

i believe it'll be fixed by next software updates.. as most of the reviews about the Xperia ZR camera was made on the 4.1 ROM ,and we have some positive feedbacks about camera quality and focus-speed enhancement in the new 4.2.2 update
so we need someone who is using the 4.2.2 ROM to confirm it..

4.2.2 user here.I can tell that the camera is way better,and for the lowlight shoting please turn off the SAM - superior auto mod. and try playing with the settings abit like stopping HDR / chosing Fill flash / focus - multi auto focus.It really gives a very good low light pictures.So basicly the camera is great for me here

Thanks @effective for confirming :good:
and guys don't listen to just one review specially the one from Phonearena.. it's the worst review ever for the ZR and you may see the positive comments there for the users..
you can just only check the photos quality from Here ,but don't read the the whole page you'll hate the phone
the photo's aren't that perfect.. but they're still great for me (note that these photos were taken on the 4.1.2 FW)

You should try Normal mode or Burst to Capture better pictures and the latest stock version's camera is at its Best I guess except Low Light pictures which are a bit Grainy!
indeed , our camera is not that great compared to S4's , why is that ? are there any apps that can be used to greatly automatically enhance our camera experience ? or are there some special settings ? or just leave it on superior auto ? on normal mode I find the pictures worse

galaxy s4 has much better camera just because of software so i text to xda developers, becouse i would be very happy if their would make some fix
Looking at the hardware side of the camera on the Z is good, but Sony still needs to work on the software for the camera, there should be more optimization.

Try other cameras. LG Camera is a great one and works on other than LG phones.
I'm fairly sure that the stock camera creates awful JPEG pictures with bad compression. I'm not sure if there are any 3rd party cameras that capture lossless .PNG stills?

LG Camera takes clear PNG photos even on low end phones.
I'm pretty sure this has been discussed before when Xperia Z was released early this year. It was petty bad compares to latest firmwares. Few people tried improving this with different camera apps and build prop editing etc. And we all came to the conclusion only Sony has the ability to fully improve the XZ camera. You may notice better picture quality with different camera apps due to iso profiles and other colour setting handled by specific third party camera apps. But the jpeg compression and other things still remains unchanged as they are depends on camera libs which is closed source and only Sony can improve them

From Xperia Z LTE (C6603) by Kaniboy
Just saw the Z2 and it had the same camera as Z1. After seeing that Sony enabled 4K on Z2, which Z1 was already capable of doing but not activated cause SONY, was wondering whether the Z1 has the Slow-mo feature too but was hidden cause SONY.
Sent from my Xperia Z1 using xda app-developers app
Well the logical answer would be that SONY wants to make money because Snapdragon 800 is capable of taking 4K natively without lags and so on.. but SONY wants you to upgrade and spend money all the time... There is a big chance that SONY will add 4K in Kit Kat update so let's just hope. And about Slo-Mo, so logically 4K is 4 Times 1080p right? If phone takes 1K at 60FPS then it can take slow-mo at 240FPS... All complaints to SONY ...
It will all ported from Z2 to Z1 so I am not worry about anything. Z1 will get better and better with time.
I agree with you theres nothing to worry about cause the XZ 4.3 has all the camera features of XZ1 but the chances of it having 4K recording are pretty much almost 0%.
What I want to know is, does the XZ2 use the same G lens as XZ1 or does it have some treaked/updated version. If it has the same then Slo-mo coming to Z1 is almost 100% yes.
Sent from my Xperia Z1 using xda app-developers app
Judging by what you said that would mean that the Note 3 and every Snapdragon 800 phone along with 4k 30fps cameras have slo-mo capabilities which I highly doubt.
Also the Z2 does Slo-mo at 120fps.

The camera still the same and lens too. Software was improved that is why Z2 have better pictures. The 4K recording will be available on Z1 soon. Is not Hardware limitation buy Software only. It's a matter of time. This for sure will be made all for the end of this year.
Thanks bro that's the answer I was looking for. :thumbup:

The CPU/ chipset in the XSP only supports sensors up to 20MP and the Z1 has a 20.7MP sensor, that's probably why it won't boot

The CPU in the Lumia 1020 is not as powerful as the CPU in the Xperia SP, yet the 1020 has a 41MP sensor. It's not the chipset, it's a combination of factors.
May I ask why you're doing this OP? Just curious.

Right, I thought that you ripped apart a Z1 and just tried stuffing that camera in the SP for the hell of it lol.

So you are like a talented person in hardware modifying? Great!
Anyway if there is no instructions then its okay. Maybe I'll pass my intentions.
Is it possible to make ? I think it' s not impossible but you, developers knows best, im asking you. Is there any chance to make 60fps video.
And for second, KCAL module not working for Xperia SP so we cannot set gamma, is there anyway to change this ? Is it impossible?

Its possible because I have seen HTC one mini(Adreno 305) to do so. Xperia SP has a lot better GPU. But not sure will camera on SP could do that
I think Xperia SP could do that, the camera not that horrible i think and cpu fast enough for that.
Wish so much the kernel developers or someone will make this work :crying::crying:
