Love my new galaxy camera however the camera ive got seems very laggy when in camera mode .
The camera I tried in the store was the same firmware and very smooth but my camera when panning before I take a pic seems to stick and then release itself again and that's before I take the pic ... also ive noticed the screen lighting goes dark and light when doing the same
If I take a picture then review it the camera sticks also for a couple of seconds before eventually bringing the menu up .
Is this lightly to be a fault or just the way the camera is ?
Im on btu uk version 4.2.1
It does same on memory card and also using the camera memory
Thanks
Chris
Pls need to decide whether to return or keep
48 views someone must be able to tell me if their camera is smooth or laggy when taking pics or reviewing pics

I noticed the lag too with the 4.1.2, there wasn't really any need to update other than the desire to be running the latest and greatest. It's the same with my Note II! the last update I installed seemed to bring more cons without the pros,. I'm planning on down grading both this weekend.

Got a new one from John lewis hopefully 4.1.1 if that's the case
Hopefully sammy will push another update out to get rid of the lag
I use remote view finder which I believe only works with 4.1.2
Thanks

Hi forumers, I have patched the 4.2 camera with the resolutions that Z&ZL support (13mp, 9mp, etc).
Here's a flashable ZIP (or you can just copy the files to the appropriate directories yourself, if you don't have CWM/TWRP installed).
Be sure to backup libjni_mosaic.so. You can remove SemcCameraUI.apk afterwards if this camera works for you.
Original ZIP taken from this post.
Will this overwrite stock camera?
No it won't, they coexist.
both cameras take almost identical photos to my eyes.
what is different from the stock?
I don't see a difference to the Stock camera. Same mushy pics, until now BURST Mode seems the only option which produces good pics.
Thanks for your efforts anyway
For me seems to launch much faster, I also like the swipe-to the left to open the gallery and gestures in the gallery itself. The photosphere function is also nice.
it is better than the stock camera in 350 firmware, but sony seems has changes the iso approach of the stock camera in the new 434 firmware, now they look identical to me, but the launch speed and photosphere make the difference, thx!
does this apk work on odex Rom's? Thanks!

The main reason for using this as opposed to other camera software including stock is photosphere.
Photosphere is one of my main reasons, (other than altering $hosts) for getting root access.
Op you don't really need to add the extra apks though

Has anyone else noticed in photosphere not being able to take the very top and bottom photos? All the blue dots show up except at the very top and bottom so the resulting photosphere has two black gaps in it.

It's a known issue with photo sphere. Take them in portrait and theres no gaps

Will there be another mod on this that allow saving to external sd card?
Thanks.

Photosphere just simply does not work, I have tried so many times to make one and it just makes a total mess or half missing or nothing at all. It worked fine on my Galaxy S3. I guess I can only hope we get it officially in the 4.2 update.

curious I've made 3 really good photospheres.
Does it take Photo Sphere pics?

You could have, you know, tried reading the post before yours (and most of the thread).
This is the one I miss from my note 2. Thanks a lot OP.

Hi everyone,
I have an xperia SP (5302) bought in hongkong, and using it in France with Orange operator.
I'm facing an issue with MMS pictures (before in FW.257 and also now flashed in FW.284)
When I receive an MMS with a photo, the little picture preview inside the MMS thread is fine.
But when I click on it to see it full screen, or when I save it to my albums, the quality is extremely low.
The picture saved weight is only 2,5ko
Basically it seems that the little preview is simply stretched to fit the screen size, and the full size picture is not really downloaded.
Bottom line, the picture is terrible and I trash every message..
Has anyone seen the same problem ?
Is there any patch around from that, a quick search on google, xda, and sony didn't give me anything, for xperia SP at least.
thanks for your feedback and glad to see the XDA community so much alive after all these years.
Not come across this myself as I don't really send our receive mms.
Could it be the quality of the picture sent is not very good and then it is made smaller to fit in side MMS?
You could try sending yourself a MMS with a PIC set to HQ and see if this is the same.

Yes that's what I did.
I tried sending from different phones, different pictures size, different sources, and the result is always the same : BAD
Sorry I don't have any other ideas....

Noob here...Is there not an option to save edited pics as another image on the stock camera? I've lost pictures saving and when trying to edit cam has crashed leaving the original gone. Frustrating cuz I'm losing good pics. I like the cam and don't really want to flash another but will if no other solution. Thanks

Allright, i recently flashed 4.4 for my S3 4G and now i seem to have problems(?) with my camera. Okay, first problem with camera is shown in picture i attached to this post. Camera does focus, but when i snap the pic, it's blurry. This happens from every single distance. And yeah, camera work's well on 4.3
And to the second and last problem. I don't seem to have HDR in any rom which is 4.4?
So why is that? Thank's for help in advance!
Help please?
BUMP
What rom are you using? If CM,the focus problem already fix in New nightly version.
Idk bout HDR.
