Is this just me or everybody have such issue? Pictures taken with the AR effects on 4.3 camera have the background way out of focus. Tried this many times with proper lighting but no focus.
Manual or Superior Auto focus works normally..

We all know how rubbish the photos captured with the HTC One in the dark are (in terms of focusing)- the photos appear fuzzy and blurry. This is because, unlike other phones, for some odd reason, there is no "light-assisted" focus.
Does anyone know of a way to modify the camera app or any other way to force light assisted focus when taking photos in the dark?

if you install Venom rom you can turn on the flashlight from the dropdown and then go to camera and take a picture, works for me...let me know if it works for you.

I'd much rather prefer to stick with my current ROM (RGUI) to be honest. Isn't there any other way?
Thanks for your response though.
Is there not an option in RGUI to put a flashlight toggle in the EQS? That would have the same effect.

I can't seem to find such an option?
EDIT: Camera doesn't open with the flashlight turned on.
I'm confused as to how the camera is poor at focusing on the dark when the sensor inherently picks up more light? When I was doing some tests for another thread on low light issues I was always able to focus quite easily in the middle of the night because the sensor let's you see a lot of features in the frame to focus on (more than other camera phones I've used at least). I know that you're not the only one bringing up this matter but I'm genuinely confused about how this is an issue for people. Have you changed camera settings or are you using a different ROM?

My phone is focusing but shows green even when it doesn't reach real focus, i don't know if it's my phone fault or for all, but my Galaxy SIII when i don't reach focus it shows a RED sight with 3 bips, and when right focus it shows Green sight with 2 fast bips.

Its auto focussing . When you move your camera around and then hold it still , it again auto focuses on its own.

Yes but even using other cameras like Camera360 ultimate, when i touch to focus and the camera doesn't reached focus, on Moto X it shows green and on Galaxy SIII red(Because when out of focus it shows to user like a DSLR or other cameras). It's only mine? Or Moto X don't have this focus detection built'in? I used all cameras available on market, galaxy SIII detects when not in focus and Moto X not, shows always green after focus or not focus, to have a good focus i need to see if it is or not in real focus.

Yes, i agreed to you in your context, but i'm trying to say that i want to know if my camera has a problem or not, because it's new, all camera phones are supposed to have a focus system, if not work, it's a factory problem.

I DON'T THINK, this should be a camera problem, There are many cam app for better photography than stock one,
My SUGGESTIONS are LENEVO SUPER CAMERA AND PRO CAPTURE FREE
HIT THANKS IF IT HELPS YOU

As far as I know, The STOCK CAM APK OF ANOTHER HIGH QUALITY CAMERA DEVICES MAY improve the quality but it never change the megapixel (hardware tweaks) but it gives a best outcome of your device's camera (8mb or 13mb) whatever it is!
Ex: 13mb cam apk ported to 8mb caMera device gives best resolution of pic with high definition Ultra ZOOM compared with stock camera app
HIT THANKS IF I AM RIGHT
Hi.
As the title of this thread implies, I have been having problems with my camera on the latest Nougat firmware. One major problem I faced is the inability for the camera to focus (tap to focus). I've played with a lot of settings both on Superior Auto and Manual but the problem doesn't seem to go away. The photos I took are so bad and out of focus I feel like it's completely broken. I didn't notice it being this bad the first time I installed Nougat. Planning to do factory reset soon.
Does anyone face the same issue?
I have same problem.
Wait for it to be released.
I had the same problem on .372 firmware, but on .376 seems ok

Can you say object tracking is good or bad? What doest it do? In my camera it is enabled, should I turn it off? I don't use touch to focus or touch to shoot. I use normal shoot button( I am a normal photo taker).

Does the lens in our camera capable of object tracking ? I thought only Z5 series and later support object tracking.

Can ajy of you shoot good macro shots?? My Z3+ just wont focus close up subjects no matter what I do,but if the subject is further away it does focus.Ive experimented with the settings but it is the same.And yes ive cleaned the lens and tried with the hardware button too.I also downgraded to 6.0.1 but the issue persists.Any fix?

when you use macro settings, and have blur picture of close objects , it's because of the focal length of the lens.
Just got my mi A2 - love it. but noticing big issues with regular video recording - I am seeing this pulse or pop often once per second - a pulsing on all my videos - not sure if it is the auto focus or what. It is a regular endless pulsing on all videos where slow closeups show it the best. Looks like a defect and I would return. Or suggestions of how to fix?
See videos of what it looks like:
https://photos.app.goo.gl/iEqVUjq6jNt2zUjk6
https://photos.app.goo.gl/aSp9jBFoB7vmEd368
is there a setting that can help here - or is it a defect. ( bad autofocus)
anyone seen this problem - should I return it?

Looks like a problem with either the cameras or the software. I'd probably RMA it.
I have the same Problem.
I have the same problem. It's an issue with the autofocus. It's searching for something to focus on and it does that. It can probably be fixed with a software update.
Does everyone have this problem - or just a bunch of us? Is there a way to force the autofocus to turn off for certain shots? This is a deal breaker for me as I do allot of closeup work with nature.

I'm hoping the October update fixes it.
Can anyone using a camera mod - like gcam, let us know if there same autofocus pulsing happens on those apps?
-steve
In bright daylight i dont have this pulsing Problem.
But in Darkness with synthetic Lights on it happens.
gcam, same Problem. You need an Videoapp with "Autofocus Lock"
Same issue here with low light indoor shoots.
did the new update fix this issue ( raining here - hard to test) - or does anyone know of a autofocus lock app or technique to get around it.

I use the "open camera" app, which is free and lets you block the focus.
I have the latest October patch (2nd) and encountering the pulse problem using the native cam app. Using the Open Camera app I am not seeing the pulse issue.
Hi, same problem ..... very bad for video recording, issue or solution ? sorry for my english, i'm french

how do you block focus on open camera - do not see option. am i missing it.
yes - open camera app - does work. in that it has a focus lock. How do we let Xiaomi know about this problem it it can be fixed (is there a offical way)?
open camera app
I did find how to do it: (https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/help.html)
Focus - Controls the focusing method used. Available options depend on your device. These may include:
Continuous focus iconContinuous (default) - The camera focuses continuously. This is generally the best mode - the preview will usually always be in focus, and taking photos is quick when the preview is already in focus. Note that you can still manually focus by touching the screen.
Auto focus iconAuto - The camera focuses when you take a photo, or when you touch to focus.
Infinity focus iconInfinity - The camera focus will be fixed for objects far away.
Macro focus iconMacro - This behaves similarly to auto focus, but is optimised for close-up objects.
Locked focus iconLocked - The camera does not focus, unless you manually touch to focus.
Manual focus iconManual - A slider appears allowing you to manually control the focus distance (only available if Camera2 API is used).
Fixed focus iconFixed - The focus remains fixed.
Fixed focus iconEDOF - Extended depth of field (EDOF). Focusing is done digitally and continuously.
Is there anyone who can confirm that issue has solved with android pie, or not.
Isue with video pulsing isn't solved with pie update. I have also made wipe data/factory reset after pie update but problem stil exist.
You can lock focus on stock camera app by holding on any spot of the screen
Hello,
I noticed that certain photos no longer seem to have any HDR applied. Is it when using certain lenses?
I'll see shots that have one part underexposed/too dark. Or, other shots will have blown out highlights too bright. That didn't happen before, because the phone would automatically apply HDR to get good exposure on the bright and dark spots.
Attached is the latest example, where the dark parts of the lighthouse are underexposed, because the camera set the exposure based on the bright clouds.
Anyone else notice that HDR never kicks in? What settings could cause this?
I'm running the Good Lock add-on called "Camera Assistant" so I wonder if that is interfering with HDR? The settings for Camera Assistant are turned off for Picture Softening and Auto lens switching, but I'm not sure why that would prevent auto HDR from kicking on?
In my Samsung camera app, the setting for "Auto HDR" is turned on.
For comparison, I've attached a wide-lens photo showing a more accurate exposure of the same lighthouse. I'm not sure why the normal 1x shot has proper exposure for the lighthouse, but the telephoto shot underexposes the lighthouse? Why didn't the telephoto use HDR like it normally would in earlier versions of the software?
