AOSP ROMS are fine as I tried them.
Even the Google camera app recently launched on Google play works well km Sony kitkat ROM.
The issue is with the Sony camera app. Sony needs to do something about it.

This is really weird as on stock it should work very well, did you try a Factory Reset?

It was very simple. just download the latest firmware from setool support.

Strange, my camera will take one photo then freeze. Reboot is the only way to get it to respond again. An iPhone is looking more and more attractive given the problems my Z1 has.

the camera's autofocus doesn't work in taking pictures nor in capturing videos, any idea how to solve it? perhaps a firmware camera update or something?
Try resetting the Camera app's settings... Perhaps you disabled it....
A factory reset can also fix your problem.. If you have the time to do it
BTW which firmware or ROM are you using?

Make sure the lens glass is clean too.
i noticed it too.. it is not focusing automatically..
it focus when you hit the square or when hitting the camera shot icon..
from one object to another, it will not autofocus,,
unlike other camera from other phones.. it adjust when you switch to a next object..

Thanks for answering,
I did reset the camera settings, Nothing changed,
Did a factory reset this morning too, Nothing changed either,
the phone is not rooted and using the latest firmware XXLK2 for Gingerbread 2.3.6
btw are you experiencing this?

yes sadly that's it, and i even wished if the video did auto-focus too, and has no option of doing so
something like this , a phone with AF not working,
youtube.com/watch?v=G2ihfPu8EA4
and same phone type, with AF working,
youtube.com/watch?v=tIO2VI6F_3I
:-s
Um, no I'm not experiencing any of this.. Could be because of many reason...
1. Mine was the Poland firmware, where this issue wasn't there..
2. When I bought this phone, JetMod was out - so I started using it, so I used the stock firmware for a few days only..
3. I'm using Jellybean now - and so far there are no issues with the camera app too..
If possible try a third party app like Camera ICS or any other app . if that too doesn't work then it might be a hardware problem.. Who knows?
Or if you are not concerned about your warranty - then upgrade to JB.. See whether the problem gets solved or not....

Thanks!, but if i were to send it to Samsung service center would they upgrade it to JB for me?
Nope.
For our country has not released any updates to Jelly Bean, so service center will not update your phone until the Samsung is not release an update for Romania.
Agreed...
Flash any recent JB firmware (don't flash the Chinese one)..... And see whether things change or not...
If everything goes well then Root and install CoCore E kernel and enjoy your New Phone

Its around 7mb, only the kernel. The kernel in the rom is old and hence breaks some functions.
Flash this FTF in flashtool. Should fix the problem.

this is the kernel i have i think, flashed it after rooting.
This is not sp kernel. This is stock kernel. Also you may try and flash the pre rooted kernel from alivanov

What the he.. is wrong with the camera on my Sony Xperia Z?
Any picture take with the flash is ugly, grainy and way too bright and bland. Pictures taken without the flash are just ugly and grainy. It doesn't really seem to matter what setting I use or if I use Superior Auto or not.
Did Sony just totally mess up 4.3? Looking at older pictures, they seem fine to me.
Some current photos can be seen here in my G+ post.

backup ur apps and repair ur phone by PCC
thr s no another report about bad-camera on JB 4.3
so thr should be something wrong in ur device. (of course software problem.)
if repairing by pcc not solve ur problem then try to flash another stock rom from another region.

Will I lose root? If I lose root, wouldn't reparing with PCC just be a waste of time, since I'd have to flash a rooted stock rom right after it?

I got the same issue.. i think that my photos are blured and not that much good after 4,3 update.. so decided to wipe and flash a new rom today but i didn't help after all.. I think we should try reflashing from SEUS

I finally updated with Pc companion and the results for me are great.! it solved my camera issue and there is considerable difference between my previous camera and the Bravia Engine is working.!!
will try to not use rom again since i tried almost everyone and the camera was the same for me in them

Hi there!
I'm on the new CyanogenMod v11 for the Honami. I've a few questions about it..
The first time I installed the rom, the camera worked fine. But after flashing the .681 stock fw and going back to cm11, sometimes the camera is not available or fc.
Also I'd like to get some tips on how to install the z1 stock camera for the cm11. I already tied to flash the z1 camera port but that gave my a bootloop.
I hope you can help.
Thanks in advance
You cant use stock sony apps on CM
You need to clear data/dalvik etc in recovery then flash the CM .zip to ensure full working Cm rom
Ok.
I think i should rephrase that.
I'd like to run my Z1 on cm11. But also with the camera from the stock 4.4.2 fw by flashing this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/themes-apps/port-xperia-honami-z1-camera-app-image-t2437314
I really like the whole features the cm11 rom brings with it but the camera isn't that good.
Is that possible?
You can't use stock Sony apps on cm roms

Now I got it^^
But here it does..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2600057
Ok, that's news to me, however it needs a lot of work, so I suggest asking someone who works in cm to do it. Those apps that already have been preyed are not nearly as complicated as the camera to port
Sent from my C6903 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Makes sense.
I think I'll wait till the Z2 camera port really works and then go back to the stock rom.
Thank you for taking some time
Any news about the non-functional camera from. 681 fw? Not everyone had a problem, but I tested the. 681 and camera didn't focus. So I downgraded to 4.3.

Same here for me. Camera does not focus for me on my unlocked BL C6903 HK Generic Z1. However, camera focuses perfectly on my .290 recovery image backup. I am using the latest Flashtool, latest SuperSU.zip, .121 dual recovery, and wiping/flashing/installing everything in the correct order.
Reverting back to .136 until the camera focus issues is resolved.

Same summary here and using exactly the same tools/superuser/recovery - back to 290 it works fine, 136 also works fine. Staying here until resolved. Many thanks all.
Im on the 757 from NUT and camera works fine here, however i still have locked bootloader, using latest flashtool, dualrecovery and SuperSU.
Camera don't work for me too. Same problems as everybody, freezes when it focus with flash on. Going back to .136 until this is fixed. Using latest flashtool and twrp 2.7.0.0, SuperSU 1.94
EDIT:NUT .757 model C6943 and unlocked bootloader
