Hello
I have noticed when I record 4K video that every geometric things have an ugly distortion, like square or rectrangular forms (doors, pictures on the wall, master, etc...)
See my example on my Z3C:
The frame is completly rectangular in reality but in the screen (and in the final video) there is a strange result.

(The black in the middle is normal, made with Paint because family picture )
The wide angle theory is not good for me because the wide angle effect is not in this way but in the exact other way:
So, the usual question: Is that normal and have you that too?
Thanks
Not sure what you did to get it that bad, maybe angle or distance but I can see the same effect on my phone yes.
Fortunately my laptop is not that warped.

Try to take your computer screen and see the difference, have you the same results than me?
Look the difference between auto mode and 4k mode with ugly distortion:
AUTO:
4K:
EDIT:
With steadyshot the issue is not here, it's only in normal 4K.

Sometimes i see that taken photos are partly blurred, even in good light condition.
I could understand this in lowlight, and if whole picture were blurred, but this taken in daylight and only in some parts. Example:

you can see a distant building is very sharp, and nearby road and fence is blurred
Guess what. It's called focus.
You can try and change the metering mode in TD2 to "average" instead of "center area".
The cursor in the middle of the screen tells what it is going to be focused.
I'm sorry if I'm being hard on you, but this is dead easy to be aware of. Basic stuff. Even our eyes focus.
Well man, certainly I'm aware what is focusing. But its really strange to hear such things from such "clever" boy. We are not discussing here mark ii with 85mm on 1.2 aperture... Its just a phone, everything further then 5 meters is in focus... Its more like to be slow processor and cmos sensor...
Like you mentioned, it's just a phone's camera with poor cmos sensor and processor.
Don't tell me you reached that conclusion only after my reply?
And again, partly blurred photo...

i'm interested if anyone else faced such behavior...
Ran a search on the forum just to make sure this hasn't been posted before, but I may have missed something... Excuse me if I did
When I'm in the camera app taking pictures/video, and am shooting some kind of dark fabric, there is a noticeable purple hue in the center of the display. Other shots (landscape, hardware shots) don't have the problem.
Below is a GIF image of my black trackpants and the burst image captured with my One.

Notice how the purple hue is constantly moving, disappearing and reappearing?
The linked image isn't the best of quality, and the in-person shots have a more noticeable discoloration, but should this be anything I should worry about?
My Moto Atrix 4G had a very similar issue, but the problem later bled into everyday shots where everything had a blue discoloration in the dead center.
Anyone else have this "problem?" It's not bothering me too much, just don't want it to come back and haunt me in a few months.
Secondly, does anyone notice that the brightness changes when you use the camera app? If you start out with minimum brightness and use switch to the camera app, your brightness increases temporarily (assuming this is by design and not some kind of odd bug on my unit).
I know that the M7's camera is nothing to write home about, but some pictures I take come out very sharp and clear, others not so much. I took these two pics minutes apart and (obviously) in the same lighting conditions:

#1 is much sharper and clearer than #2. It seems the stock camera app will allow the image to be captured before the camera is finished focusing. Then it's hard to tell if the shot is truly in focus on the small screen. I go home and upload them for editing and find half the shots I take are slightly out of focus. Most of the pics I take are posed or of still subjects, so I don't need instantaneous shots. I'd rather have the app wait the extra split second and focus properly for the clearest possible image.
Is there any way to change the settings in the stock app, or a 3rd party app that will take clearer images? I don't mind spending a few bucks for a paid app if it's good.
Bump.
Anyone?
What do those icons actually do?
Are there different lenses used with each icon or the image just gets digitally zoomed?
Thanks!

They're just zoom shortcuts? I mean, it saves time rather than scrolling to zoom yourself.

I think they do actually switch between the two different lenses as the original poster suggests

The second camera is automatically activated once you go past 2X zoom, if the required conditions are met (Focal distance and brightness I think) so technically you're both right, tapping the button will switch cameras (if conditions are met) but only because it also sets the zoom to 2X.
You can test by covering one of the lenses and changing how bright whatever the camera is looking at.
Hello everyone, I was curious about this, a few days ago my mobile arrived, when I tested the camera, everything went well. Except that when I take a photo with the 108mpx camera, sometimes you see this type of "pixels" when I zoom in on the photo, they think it is something that can be solved by some software update? I hope you have a happy evening and thanks in advance

Thats sensor noise because have too high iso, maybe you can shoot with pro mode and lower iso (decrease shutter speed) and test again. If noise go away then its a problem that software can solve.. use gcam with night mode for test too.

I just tried pro mode and apparently it gives that error when iso is 50-100, 100+ looks fine. I guess then it is solvable by a system update!. Thanks a lot
