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.

Hello,
I have a huge problem with my camera while recording a video.
The focus isn't working correctly, it just shakes really fast.
I didn't noticed it, because I rarely record movies, but today I've found this problem.
Here is an example:

Does anyone else have this problem?
Can this be fixed or is it a problem with my camera?
Thanks

Have you tried an hard reset?
However seems an hardware issue...
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:
Anyone else experiencing this?
Back camera is fine, but on Google camera, stock camera, camera apps like Snapchat- incredibly laggy front camera. Like 1-2 fps. Video and picture mode. Tried HDR on and off. Starting a video recording will kick it back into normalcy, but as soon as it ends recording, the preview goes back into stuttering. On Snapchat, the recording is stuttered.
Im having the same issue

My back camera is great. But when it comes to using the front-facing camera its absolutely awful. A few frames per second and relatively delayed. Very grainy as well. I got much better quality on my s4....
Exactly! But then sometimes it's perfectly fine. Can't find any specific reason for it. I did notice that the stuttering improved when I was in a bright environment...? I'm perplexed. Never had anything like this happen with the S3 I was using.

I've noticed the same thing. Front camera works fine with lots of light but the FPS drops to **** as soon as it gets a bit dark. Not even too dark to see, just not super bright. I think it should be able to get fixed in a software update. Wishful thinking at least.
Wait till 5.0 drops we will probably have to just deal with it till then
On my Moto Maxx XT1225 i had the same issue.
On kitkat and even now that I'm trying soak lollipop, very very laggy
Only happens on low light conditions.
Hi Guys
Updated my Moto G5S Plus to Oreo 8.1 a few days ago using the commands on XDA. All is working great however I have an issues with WhatsApp, isolated with its Camera.
When I try to do Video on the Rear camera for video it seems to "zoom" in and I cannot zoom out. Its like jumping to max zoom and getting stuck.
With the front camera it seems to be VERY dark, the preview I see when recording video looks good, however when it plays back before sending its almost 100% dark, as if the light was never on?
Ive tried disabling the default camera, reinstall whatsapp all the usual stuff. I would assume if this was a widespread issue with the Whatsapp or Oreo update there would be more threads on it however I cant find anything.
Anyone else had this issue?

i have this problem too
The problem I have is that messages do not arrive unless I enter the application. The camera thing happened to me only in a couple of occasions where I recorded and it seemed that I had zoomed but it happened to me in the camera application not in wasap.
Hello people, I have my mi9 since 3 days and I really love it. It's a great phone, but today I found wierd bug in camera app. I recorded with 1080p 30fps with stabilization on. After few seconds of recording phone freezes, but audio recording is still going, after a while it resumes. Video like that is kinda unusable. What's more when I'm in camera app on video tab sometimes it freezes just on viewport, without even recording. Does anyone have similar issues? Any help would be appreciated.
Here is a link to bugged videos (I'm new so I can not use link tags yet, sorry for inconvinience):

This may be too late, but I had similar problems with the camera app freezing when image stabilization was enabled at 30fps. In the end I discovered that some sensors were not functioning at all (gyro, magnetic, light and compass); My guess is that at least first two feed info to the stabilization algorythm.
I managed in the end to solve the problem by flashing a xiaomi eu rom from twrp.
