is there a "night mode" in HTC touch diamond?

last night trying to use the camera, but the picture was so dark, and im trying to look if i can set it to night mode. but i ddnt find it in the menu of the phone. is there a night mode in HTC touch diamond?

it is a big problem for diamond because it doesnet have flash lite

That's funny but I was doing the same thing last night. I did go from menu to menu without finding any such feature.

in the camera settings, there is a white balance tab, keep tapping that till you get a moon and star picture

It wont do much better though... (even if it had a flashlight)

[Q] Two modes camera flash

Here's my question, is there a way, to make the camera flash to use the normal light, and not the bright, when taking a picture, but in the same time, if a select it, to use the bright. It'll be usefull, because the bright flash makes things blurry or too bright when shooting from a close distance. If a want to take a picture of a business card (for OCR) I have to use separate light source, because the flash is too bright and makes it unreadable, and the normal flash is enaugh for the purpouse.

I too was interested in this idea about a month back. It would be very useful to take the photo with the standard flash light rather than the super bright flash. As it is this level that you focus the photo and expect it to be at, only to sadly recieve a horribly over flashed photo.

agreed...^^

What would really be awesome with the camera would be the ability to disable the light sensor. That way, in low light the FPS doesnt go to crap leaving us with blurry pictures. Also, the flash doing what a real flash does, being flash instead of stay on...
As for the normal light and not bright, hTorch has a toggle to go between both, we just need to see if there is a reg key or something to just enable the light without it going to bright mode for the actual shot.
There are a few other threads that talk about the camera reg settings, i just forget where.

lost camera focus after phone returned from service

Hi all,
i got my Z3c repaired:
replacement of the touch layer - display itself was not replaced
battery replacement
back panel replacement
clean-up
after that, i am no longer able to focus in the camera app. i tried Open Camera - same issue.
any ideas please?
attached is the sample pic taken in optimal environment and conditions - 25% of the original size.
thank you!

me too i change battery and Screen...
this suck why wont focus now!! and i ve Unlocked Bootloader and i can´t use Sony Companiom.

I might have a similar problem, but it might be my imagination...
My phone was currently serviced by a 3rd party company. Whole screen assembly changed (touchscreen died).
The phone DOES focus, but using touch focus, a circle is placed on screen but the camera will only focus when you press the physical shutter button half way OR you press and hold the onscreen shutter button. Was it always like that? I was under the impression that the touch focus option would focus immediately after you touch the screen, but I might be wrong. The firmware is 23.5.A.1.291, android 6.0.1

Cameras not all working?

Recently bought the phone off Amazon and started messing with the cameras and noticed i could have my fingers over the top and bottom camera on all modes and zoom one each and it never used them? Did I get a faulty phone or am I using something wrong?

I heard this and think it is true for the P9 too, but I've learned some things since then. There are a lot of modes and resolution combinations. Try the basics first. Top cam is only zoom. Bottom is B&W.
For example, I cannot shoot with finger over zoom lens after choosing 3x zoom in Photo mode and waiting for the zoom lens to kick in (the image stabilises once the zoom lens is active).
I would try with and without AI, with different resolutions and with different modes. I just tried night mode on 10mp and covered the B&W sensor, so maybe it's all a big scam.

Thought the same first but now im sure all of them are working fine .
The phone can only use two cameras at once anyway to my knowledge .
When you zoom in good lighting it will switch to telephoto cam ( top cam ).
When you shoot in bw it will use monochrome .
When the phone tells you to stabilize fot sharpening it will trigger the monochrome sensor too .

New Night Mode Camera Question

I am planning to get a new S10 soon. With the new dedicate night mode update, I have a few questions:
1. Is it possible to use Night mode in bright condition(like during a sunny day)? This because night mode in the Pixel phone provide better quality even in bright condition.
2. Is it possible to force Night mode to use the telephoto camera.
3. Is it possible to force Night mode to use the ultra wide angle camera
Thanks!

1. Yes
2. No
3. Yes
Except there is no forcing anything as you just selection the options normally on the camera app interface
Also this is a thread for the Q&A section.

2 is apperently in the works as well for ultra wide angle

2 is referring to the 2x optical zoom lens. Night mode already works with the Ultra wide lens.

Can I also ask if the night mode is actually useable? IE does not require super steady hands or long exposure times? For example with the Ultra wide which has a smaller aperture.
What kind of exposure times are usually applied in the dark? I'm talking about in the outdoors, some street lights, artificial lighting etc.

more than usable

Night mode doesn't need super steady hands. A normal non-shaky hand is enough to get an excellent photograph.
Exposure is based on the lighting available. For me, outdoors with street lighting shot has always been around 1/6 th of a second. Again this always depends on the light available for the sensor you are using.
