Xperia Z camera mod to manually adjust focus. - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, the thing is that i' m looking for a camera app that would let me manually adjust the focus because auto focus, touch focus wont work, because sometimes i catch the image perfectly but auto focus keeps refocusing, its not hardware related since i get the perfect picture but the next moment autofocus re adjusts it. Please devs think of this.

+ 1 for this!!!

I've asked this question multiple times, but got no answer.. The feature was available on the Optimus black gingerbread rom.. I think I'll try to download it and extract the apk.. But I doubt it'll work..

Thanks for replies, but I'm looking for true focus control, just like on new Lumia 1020. I have purchased FV-5 Camera but it doesn't provide manual focus control.

Same like my problem...

[Q] stock camera.apk

(SOLVED) can close 3D
I dont know if its applicable with this version of the optimuos but the lg camera ap was posted in the g2x forums try searching there.
I am very dissapointed with O4X stock camera. Hard to focus especially in night /low light condition (without flash)
Why LG only provide 2 mode for focusing, and those mode works almost the same way?
Manual focusing by tapping on screen doesn`t help improve quality.
They should add more focusing mode like macro etc.

upgrade to 10F maybe it help with the focus
Not a big fan of the camera neither, I can't figure out how to take clear pics. Many pics isn't sharp.
I have 3 different camera apps and none of them is good on inside photo..
I have the original app, camera zoom fx and lgcamera, where lgcamera is the worst. Only on auto focus the camera actually focus (original). Still I get pics that isn't sharp.
I'm on 10f... For me it seems like it got worse after the latest update...

i have lgcamera pro and the free version, images are hits and misses (sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad). im using camera360 and camera zoom fx as well.
have you tried changing the focus mode to fixed, or other modes?
I start to think that the only good camera that LG had, was the Viewty I, Viewty II its not bad too... Instead of learn... they do worst.

Yes..
In the original camera app there's only auto and face reckoning...
In camera zoom fx it won't focus in fixed mode, macro and infinity just taking the pic with ones. Lgcamera is the same and camera360 focused a bit (macro)..

I don't think it's bad and I don't really have any problems with focusing. I just touch the screen where i want to focus and when it is focused I press the the shutter button (or volume button).
I also had the N8 (well 3 actually) and woow I liked that camera, though I had problems with the screen, pink tint and things like that. After the third phone I took the money back. It would have been very nice if the N8 was an android phone.
I love it too,i hope the next version will better than now:laugh::laugh:

I recommend u to use Camera ICS+, I purchased it and it works perfect for me. You may try the free version, which is Camera ICS, it is actually the google stock camera with some mods, but I personally think it is even better than the stock LG camera app, hope u enjoy it.:good:
I use lgCamera, both free and pro version can provide better pictures with ISO and focus control, but sometimes it cannot save picture properly (resulted in picture without thumbnail)

It is changeable. Current duration is set at 3 seconds. How long do you want it to be?
Code: .field public static final RELEASE_TOUCH_AF_DURATION:I = 0xbb8
where bb8 = 3000 (ms)

New Stock JB camera from port from Google edition HTC One and Galaxy S4

Hey I have tested the port app from the Google edition HTC One (GS4) and it works like a charm on my Xperia Z with Android 4.2.2.
All functions including Photosphere work when accessed from the Gallery app. The Camera shortcut does crash sometimes. All you have to do is just download the APK and install it on your phone. It will not replace your stock camera app so you can just install it and use it as an alternative.
You can download it from this website: http://android.hdblog.it/2013/06/27...e-galleria-di-ones4-google-edition-per-tutti/
Or here is a Google Drive link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1liTNaofBHRQTNHZzQ2V1YyaTQ/edit

Is it possible to put this camera in the lockscreen (Where now the XZ camera is)?
I tried to search to replace it, but nowhere to find (for me )
Here is a quick test result:

Top man. Works nicely. Confusing as hell to use though.
I played a little with photosphere app. Great app. But the picture quality is not very good when zooming.
I compare 2 photoshere from the same point (one with my Xperia Z, one with S4 not google edition).
The one from S4 is much more sharp than the one from Xperia Z. What a pity...
Alternative Camera App
Reckon I will give this one a shot in a little bit. Was trying to get the Honami Camera app to work last night after de-odexing new Stock ROM, but this might keep me content until Honami is updated for new Firmware. Nice One !:laugh:

Bad camera experience!!??

I buy new Xperia. Z,
I upgrade it to latest firmware.
I found camera is full with purple in night, and I want to ask if this cause the upgrade or the same with other firmwares.

thats little bit normal because of low light
u can change setting of Camera to solve it
i guess in this pic u r in normal mode but u can use auto or play with brightness to have better quality
if this problem remains just repair it with PCC or SUS
Guys play with Setting of Xperia Camera thay r awesome but hard to work with them

Camera application from lenovo flagship set with 13mp

This is a new camera application from Lenovo flagship set with maximum number of features including HDR.
"Lenovo Smart Camera software means enabling intelligent smile correction, auto face 'make-up' editing effects, and auto-exposure mode "
I'm amazed by the quality of the camera. Takes sharp and good pictures than our stock camera also no yellow/pink tint and smooth video recording and now that's what I call 1080p full hd
and also gallery has lot of editing features like beauty , special effects and I love gif creator.
All you say is wow after installing this app.
( If you don't know about lenovo flagship set " It is the device with 13mp camera with 1080p display and is powered by Intel".
MOD EDIT: links removed for the use of AdFly
Note pls download the .apks provided by me from the above link, which doesnot require any bad permissions.
The .apks provided in the middle of this thread by other members asks for some permission and I won't be responsible if you instal that file.
Thanks Good application :thumbup::thumbup:

Woah, it is sharp as mentioned and much lower noise than our Sony camera app. However, I couldnt find the setting to make it 16:9. May not be that big an issue, can always crop using editor. But the main thing is, this app by a china company interestingly beat the Japanese in terms of software.
