Naaah... I didn't like it at all.. horrible UI also picture quality is not that great. Need perfect camera app? here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neaststudios.procapture Nothing can come close to this app. From my tests this app takes picture with less noise in low light conditions ofcourse if your camera settings are correct, so good luck.
Actually my thoughts are that pic quality is not in the app you use but in the libs from Sony, so all the apps around the market offer exactly the same quality. I've made my own test over quite a long time and that's my conclusion.
The best of pro capture is that you can choose night scene or night portrait scene modes and tweak exposition values higher than stock app, which allows you to get more light (getting iso up) in slow speed shooter, so you can get the best quality in low light.
For example, in night scene in pro capture, you can set eV to +2 and get up to 1/2s iso 400 pic, while in stock camera the max is 1/2s iso 100, and if you want the amount of light in stock camera at normal (mode), iso goes up to 1600. If you compare a 400 iso pic with a 1600 iso one, que difference in image quality is impressive.
"A better camera" sports some interesting shooting modes we've seen in Samsung or Nokia phones, which make this app interesting. Also the night mode (working at 3.x mpx) could be interesting, but still I prefer my pro capture pics...

An example (all pics taken hand shooting, no tripod or another holding) :
Pic 1.Pro Capture. Night scene
Pic 2.pro capture. Night portrait.
Pic 3.pro capture. Reduced Noise mode activated. Night scene.
Pic 4.pro capture. Reduced Noise activated. Night portrait.
Pic 5. A better camera. Night mode.

Sony Cyber-shot m630

If I had to choose one of them, I'd go with the Nikon
Thanks above but was looking for something more in terms of technical . Not just about zoom. Coolpix is out of the running now due to when using camcorder and zoom you can hear on playback the zoom sound like a drill

Well with cameras that small, there's not a lot of technical difference.
The higher optical zoom is always better than digital zoom.
Nikon has reports of excellent low light pictures.
I've got a canon sx210is with 14x optical zoom, Jessops are doing it now for £149 so it's probably available elsewhere for less.
I bought it as a 40m dive enclosure is available for it.
I also got a slip on extension tube that allows you to use filters.
The low light abilities of the camera really impressed me.
This video was taken on a dark boat during a dark overcast day. The only lights that were on are the coloured disco ones shooting around
I took this out the front a few nights ago when we had snow. Only street lighting was used.

It all depends what you want to use it for.
If you just want a point and shoot to take snaps, then go for the cheapest one of the bunch.
That's some funky dancing lol. Thanks for the answer.

The camera360 pics look better and more colourful to me. Maybe I should try it too !
Awesome, I had my first opportunity to use Camera 360 today, I jacked up the image resolution, zoomed in as much as I could and took a shot looking out the 4th floor window of a dropbox.com office here in SF. I was impressed.

Backcover on. Personally I don't see any difference with backcover on or off.
you can try HDR camera+, if you want to sompare with Camera 360
I use from a long time the camera 360 con la option of hdr light and i am very satisfied. The picture with the camera original of optimus is very week seems like no have color but with the 360 the picture looks like wonderful picture. Yesterday i founded a new camera software even better then all the soft of camera and named U-cam. Try it.
Looks really nice. I made some tests some time ago but i didn't see any big difference.
I'm gonna try camera 360 again!
Optical sensor is quite good, made by Sony. But also we have second "glass" on back cover, which can get dirty inside and out. Then at the end I think software is to be blamed about most of the bad results, even though we have some options that other can dream of. Like panorama mode or even simple flash for photos
But lousy brightness and white balance on auto mode can ruin all that. Can be fixed by manual setting which is is pain in the ass, but there are software fixes for later.
Every photo editor has it. Paint.NET has "auto-level" under Adjustments for easy fixing, but I do it with Picasa. Use it for managing my photo collection anyway, and there are a lot of auto or manual editing options. "Feeling lucky" usually makes wonders out of my not-so-attractive photos, sometimes it even looks like lite-HDR effect. Try it: http://picasatutorials.com/2009/04/picasa-tip-im-feeling-lucky/
Camera 360 is a great App. I use it for 2 years now. But your comparison is not about photo quality but rather about settings.
Compare the Camera 360 HDR Light photos to the LG stock camera "Vivid" option.
Also I cleaned my back cover glass with laboratory grade alcohol and microscope wipes last year. There seemed to be residue from the glue holding the glass smeared across the glass. Mainly on the inside. Once this was removed I never had dramatic differences between cover on and cover off.
There is dust in there sometimes and there are fingerprints on it, but they are wiped off easily.

I had my nokia n95 on my other pocket and it's photos had more detail and quality
You might be in high iso mode. Check your camera settings and bring ISO to auto, and exposure and focus to auto. If auto mode still gives you ugly photo, make ISO to 100 under daylight. Also see if exposure compensation setting is set to zero (middle). See what happens.
And also, you might be in night mode. That makes overexposed photos in daylight.

I used manual and auto and both came with same quality
Auto uses multi meterimg and gave me very dark images
So i chose manual, single autofocus and center metering
Iso and exposure and every thing to auto
Hdr off and stabilisation off
Under sun light i get good photos
These photos were taken at light condition similar to very early morning
I think foliage and trees are weak spot for this camera
Try using center weighted metering. What do you mean multi meteribg? Spot metering creates overexposed highlights when the center of the image is of dark color.

Hi everyone. What happened to the burst mode on the pixel camera? All of my research says Google removed it when updating to Android 10. If so, what 3rd party camera do you recommend that allows burst mode shots and/or Gif creations?
Pixel camera now favors live photo over burst took me a minute to understand that
When you choose a live photo you can see all the frames and select one
My fave second camera app is open camera but don't think it has burst anymore also

There's an option for video or GIF for motion photos if you tap export.

The quality of what is so bad? Are you talking about the long press video recordings? Yes they're pretty low quality because they're only 1024 x 768. I really don't understand that "feature" for long press video if it's not going to record the default video settings.

Sorry, the quality of motion photos (top shot?) Or when you press and hold shutter button. Quality of alternative photos as the main one is good quality.

Yeah see my updated post about the long press videos. As for Top Shot, it's very good when it's actually a photo and not the long press video.
