The Camera in Nexus 6 and IPhone Plus is the same but why isn't nexus 6 capable of recording slowmotion like the Apple phones, with the standard app?

Cause Google just don't want to add slow-motion video. Yeah, it pisses me off too

sure its able to record and play slow mo, its just not included in the cam by default. there are apps for that.

[VIDEO] Google Nexus 7 - Camera Test & Review

Thanks for the review, it looks like a decent camera under the more extreme tests you performed. I say this as most would use the cam for hangouts or Skype only.

Having used it for some video chat, this camera is barely even suitable for that. Unusable indoors under low light conditions.

I can understand the image quality suffering in doors with low lighting, but why would the frame rate drop so much? That seems like a glitch/software issue.

I agree. It was not what I had anticipated. I'm pretty fluent in cameras and photography, and there isn't really any reason for the camera hardware to do this, it's obviously software related. I plan on trying other apps to get a better handle on things.

Its pretty good for what it is

I'd agree that the camera is good for what it is. It's definitely only viable for things along the lines of skype and google hangouts. It seems to have an issue with autofocusing as well but that could be software.

Could it be using some sort of frame-averaging algorithm in an attempt to reduce noise? Like take (30/7=4.29) four frames and average the noise out giving one good frame per four samples?
Thanks reverendkjr
Quality looks quite good.
I have Tango video call app installed on the Nexus 7 and on my Galaxy Note - comparing them side by side, looking at my face, there is more sharpness and detail from the Nexus 7 video (whether I'm using WiFi or 3G on Note), and I had always thought the Galaxy Note did quite well with its front-facing camera (certainly is better than the iPad 3!).
So I think Google has done a good job with this front camera - 1.3 MP vs. the Galaxy Note 1.9 MP.

I plan on taking a look at Tango, Skype, etc on this device in a later video. I had no idea that the Galaxy Note camera was 1.9MP. What an odd size.

BTW on Skype the video quality is quite bad with a quality setting of high. On the same wifi connection, my galaxy nexus n laptop work fine.

exactly my point - not sure if this is a skype issue or a nexus 7 issue! i thought i could use this to skype when i am at airports, etc as i travel a lot. Unfortunately no, i am back to using my huge laptop or the tiny screen of galaxy nexus!

I'm getting similar results when using skype on different wifi networks. I think it may be a camera driver issue. Not sure. I haven't tried it with Tango or any other app just yet.
^^ has anyone tried with google hangouts or gtalk video or something? I am sure google tested this on atleast their own video services before launching the product. Skype does not officially support nexus 7 yet so it could be just a skype issue

[Q] Slow motion Video

Can the Nexus 6 record in slow motion? If not is there an app that is recommended or is it that the camera is not capable?
Thanks
I've been looking too but I haven't seen an app to record. Only option I could find for slow mo is a video maker app like viva video

The camera is very capable, however, Google decided it wasn't important enough to include in its camera app. Let's all wait in expectation of the next staged rollout bringing yet another "should have shipped with" feature

[Q] Anyone Facing Stuttering While Recording 4K Videos?

I've seen some couple of videos where there is a clear stuttering when recording 4K videos. I'm also facing the same on my device. No problem with 1080p though. Please let me know how many of you are facing this issue?
@rootSU , @simms22 are you guys facing this issue? Please do let me know
I don't record videos to be honest

Here's mine. I don't think there is any stutter. For some reason YouTube seems to have converted to 360p but it was definitely 4k

I think that's just camera movement due to me. Info t see anything that looks like a framedrop.
Yes he is cute. Had an operation yesterday.

Camera with working slow motion... Hit me on PM for details..

Why don't you put it on Play Store?!

I think that screenshot is camera for hydrogen os. Anyway I hope by slow motion you mean 60 or 120 fps recording of it is the case, great work but don't you think you should put some recording for marketing ? And what's all this pm and secrecy stuff
If you deliver on your promise and put it on the play store, then users will buy it.

I still asking, why our camera sensor is the same of oneplus one, but on the 1+1 they have implemented slow motion and much longer shutter speed, and we can't...

Camera for 360

Hi to all, it sounds strage to me but seems that sony, among all camera mini app, didn't think to a function to make 360 (sphere) photos. Among all camera apps in the play store i tried Panorama 360, but i don't like it: the pictures are really noisy. I was used to use google camera, which has this function, in my old xperia S with naosp rom so I download also in my Z5 but the higher resolution is 8.3 Mpx.
Which app you use to do 360 photos?
Thanks
Google Street view works for me
