Can someone help me understand the drama with the Sony camera? Is the image not really 20mp because it downsizes it? Can that be turned off? I don't want to use third party programs to mess with the pictures. Just trying to prep for how I can get the best images.

What is smile shutter? There is a shutter on the camera, but just not sure what you're refering to.

Yeah, I haven't seen anything like that for Topaz.
You may find an app out there though, who knows.
Hello there,
I'm pretty new to all this and the P880 is my first Android device.
Does anyone here know if there is an app that allows you to take photos like the normal photo app but saves the raw data from the image sensor? I had such an app for my previous device, the Nokia N900 and really like to play around with raw images ...
many thanks in advance

I don't think this is possible. Just did a quick google:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4514862/android-impossible-to-obtain-raw-image-data-from-camera
Maybe you can ask the the CyanogenMod team if it's possible at all and somebody is interested to look into this... However it would need root then.

thanks for your reply domenukk. Too bad its not possible. These latest BSI sensors really offer much regarding dynamic range but the jpeg compressin makes it impossible to exploid it

Well most current phones feature a HDR mode, so at some point they seem to have access to the data. Probably just needs some hack...

I would love to have that Jelly bean cam app it's the best software to zoom in and out, most cam apps it's pain in the ass to zoom in and out.
wrong thread delete it pls
Guys, I just tried Snap Camera, and i found out that the video recording is really brighter when recording on Snap Camera compared to Sony's Stock Application. ALSO,on Snap Camera, i can tap on screen to change focus while recording video, which is something that I am not allowed to do when I use Stock App.
This means that our device(z3 compact) IS CAPABLE of using Touch to Focus while video recording. Is there any way to activate/enable/make use of this feature on Sony's Stock Application?!
Thanks in advance.

Yes of course !
Decompile the stock camera app and code it in yourself.
100% serious answer: judging from your question, no.

Is it possible for developers @mkdmc to do something like this? I mean, since they're making mods, they might know how to tweak the stock app camera to achieve it!

Like I said... It'll be faster if you code it yourself. I know everyone here can do that since it's XDA- ""developers"" after all.
Whether he wants to mod it or not is a different question, better to ask him yourself.

I have no idea of coding...I wouldn't even create a thread if I knew how to man.

Thought you made a typo ( can - instead of can't) and that's why I didn't catch it. Message sent. Hope he replies!
The question is: Is there a high request of this feature or not? I myself don't have a problem not having that focus, as for real recordings, I better use my "real" camera / camcorder instead of the phone.
@kwstas 13
Thanks for your suggestions. I'll add it to cyberian road map

Hello,
What do you mean by screach? Sorry i'm French, but I haven't found a proper translation...
Cheers...
@5.1: I know you're likely kidding, but I think he meant to say "scratch".
@bennnnnn: If you meant "scratch", you might want to show us a sample picture so we can see what's going on. Usually, if you have a scratch it's on the camera glass, in which case you'll need to replace the camera glass. Otherwise you'll have to replace the camera module itself.

Hey,

Hi. I am interested in getting this phone.. But most of the camera tests I see online, the images are too dark. Also, strangely, although images are generally underexposed, they still somehow manage to blow out highlights sometimes.
I am very impressed with the camera quality apart from the issues stated above, but surely they are software issues and can be fixed with a patch or alternative camera app?
Thanks

Everything can be fixed and by far improved using the GCam. Search the thread for examples.
Thanks
I saw some pictures but they didn't seem hugely better to me.
Plus most apps need a root to install?
I wouldnt wan't to buy a phone and risk installing an app and then can't send it back if I'm not happy.
Do you know a link for some good picture and video samples?
Thanks

Nice images thanks.
There was one where the Stock camera was better I think.
But all the others the Gcam looked quite a lot better.
And does the Gcam also give better video recording?
