I want to share with you the super macro shooting of the mate20 Pro. If you want to capture the details, super macro shooting is a great choice. How to use super macro shooting? When the distance between the camera and the object is less than 8cm during shooting, the camera will switch to the wide-angle lens and enter the super macro mode (as shown below).

Compared to the normal camera mode, close-up shooting can capture more details and even give us small surprises that are not easily noticeable by the eyes. For example, the photo below shows that the normal angle of view is like this, the flower looks smaller:
If we continue to zoom in and shoot in super macro mode, we can see more details of the flower, even the small bug on the flower can be clearly seen.
The following pictures are also taken in super macro mode.
With super macro shooting, the stamens of the small yellow flowers on the roadside are clearly visible.
I think the ability to capture details in Super Macro is really great. How do you feel?
Finally, share some tips for super macro shooting.
1. Pay attention to the distance between the camera and the object during macro shooting (2.5cm<d<8cm). When the shooting distance is less than 2.5cm, it will exceed the camera's focusing ability range, resulting in inaccurate focus and blurred picture.
2. In a super macro scene, the object is too close, the slight movement of the object will cause a large displacement of the object in the picture, so try to shoot when the subject is at rest, and keep the phone steady as much as possible. The pictures taken in this way will be better.
3. If you have turned off the "Super Macro" prompt at the bottom when you shoot, you need to turn the camera off and then turn the camera back on to recognize and enter Super Macro mode. You can also zoom the screen to 0.6X and manually enter Super Macro mode.
I really like to take pictures in super macro mode. It's really great. Come and share with me the beautiful photos you took with super macro.
Hi, any option to activate? I dont see the super macro prompt when closing up to objects :-/
Cheers
EDIT: Alright, sorted it out, just had to turn on the AI

The Master AI option in the camera must be turned on.
Super macro is perfect for taking details.

Hey all, Im new to this forum. I have a t-Mobile HTC HD2 that has PATs JW MIUI Sense like 1.9.9 ML installed on it via Nand. I am not fond of the stock camera app that comes with the ROM. It does not have a very good zoom on it.
Is there any Camera App that I can install on it that is like stock and has a better zoom on it? I know there are some free ones on the market, but so far I havent found one with a better zoom on it.
Any help is grateful
Thanks in adavance!
well no, you can get other camera with better quality of photo and effects.
I looking for camera with zoom too
With regards to zoom, the function in a way is somewhat pointless. The camera can take 5.1 Mpx shots, and all zoom does, is digitally enlarge what you see on the screen. So in fact taking a photo then cropping it, does exactly the same as what zoom will do regardless of the zoom factor! For real zoom, it would need an optical zoom lens.
Zoom zoom!

Use Camera Zoom FX. In settings select zoom type 4. You will be able to zoom by a factor of 6.

The camera360 pics look better and more colourful to me. Maybe I should try it too !
Awesome, I had my first opportunity to use Camera 360 today, I jacked up the image resolution, zoomed in as much as I could and took a shot looking out the 4th floor window of a dropbox.com office here in SF. I was impressed.

Backcover on. Personally I don't see any difference with backcover on or off.
you can try HDR camera+, if you want to sompare with Camera 360
I use from a long time the camera 360 con la option of hdr light and i am very satisfied. The picture with the camera original of optimus is very week seems like no have color but with the 360 the picture looks like wonderful picture. Yesterday i founded a new camera software even better then all the soft of camera and named U-cam. Try it.
Looks really nice. I made some tests some time ago but i didn't see any big difference.
I'm gonna try camera 360 again!
Optical sensor is quite good, made by Sony. But also we have second "glass" on back cover, which can get dirty inside and out. Then at the end I think software is to be blamed about most of the bad results, even though we have some options that other can dream of. Like panorama mode or even simple flash for photos
But lousy brightness and white balance on auto mode can ruin all that. Can be fixed by manual setting which is is pain in the ass, but there are software fixes for later.
Every photo editor has it. Paint.NET has "auto-level" under Adjustments for easy fixing, but I do it with Picasa. Use it for managing my photo collection anyway, and there are a lot of auto or manual editing options. "Feeling lucky" usually makes wonders out of my not-so-attractive photos, sometimes it even looks like lite-HDR effect. Try it: http://picasatutorials.com/2009/04/picasa-tip-im-feeling-lucky/
Camera 360 is a great App. I use it for 2 years now. But your comparison is not about photo quality but rather about settings.
Compare the Camera 360 HDR Light photos to the LG stock camera "Vivid" option.
Also I cleaned my back cover glass with laboratory grade alcohol and microscope wipes last year. There seemed to be residue from the glue holding the glass smeared across the glass. Mainly on the inside. Once this was removed I never had dramatic differences between cover on and cover off.
There is dust in there sometimes and there are fingerprints on it, but they are wiped off easily.
Hello, please check these photos taken with
my z1, and tell me if my camera is faulty or not?
The sun was almost down at that time but still bright enough for a nice picture in my opinion

You might be in high iso mode. Check your camera settings and bring ISO to auto, and exposure and focus to auto. If auto mode still gives you ugly photo, make ISO to 100 under daylight. Also see if exposure compensation setting is set to zero (middle). See what happens.
And also, you might be in night mode. That makes overexposed photos in daylight.

I used manual and auto and both came with same quality
Auto uses multi meterimg and gave me very dark images
So i chose manual, single autofocus and center metering
Iso and exposure and every thing to auto
Hdr off and stabilisation off
Under sun light i get good photos
These photos were taken at light condition similar to very early morning
I think foliage and trees are weak spot for this camera
Try using center weighted metering. What do you mean multi meteribg? Spot metering creates overexposed highlights when the center of the image is of dark color.

Hi everyone,
I think I might have a problem with my cameras or maybe they're just not as good as I hoped. The image attached is supposed to be a close up but as you can see it wouldn't focus close up. I was around 2" away from the object. Previous phones handled close ups like this without a problem, so what gives?
How are you close ups?
I've already tried cleaning the lens and changing cameras settings etc

I can't get the image to display??
A quick solution
Please refer to https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77804957&postcount=51. Although, from the screenshot you have attached, it seems that your phone is simply too close to the subject. The minimum focusing distance for your P20 Pro is 10cm, so you will need an external lens attachment to photograph anything closer than that. I hope this helps.
Exactly. It even tells you that you're too close. Just back off a little.

I might try what is suggested in the other thread. As for being too close, my 2014 S5 can take close ups at this distance no problem so I expected this "beast" to be even better.
I love the phone but I think the cameras were definitely over hyped
Well it's no secret that the minimum focus is 10 cm. But I agree it would be handy if closer focus could be achieved. Occasionally I could make use of it, too.

Then you guys are in luck. Your p20 Pro comes with a 40MP sensor. So zoom in and crop away at your hearts' desire, my friends .
With all my respect, but that is not the same. Far from it.

Yes, I know. Just trying to put a positive spin on a bad situation I have actually been curious to try out one of those macro lens attachments from Amazon.
I guess they will work okay. I sometimes photograph through a loupe, just holding the phone close to it. Doesn't look as good as a true macro shot, but good enough if you're lazy and don't want to get the DSLR out (I am the queen of laziness ).
auto-focus macro would ask u to go further away. If you'd like to do really closed-up photos, you can do it 2 ways.
1. switch to 3x zoom, then point your subject and take photo. the magnification is quite near to macro.
2. switch to "Pro" mode, then, click "AF-C" to choose "MF", there u can switch the focus slider to get your desired focus. That way, I can get up to 4 or 5 cm closed instead of 10 cm as in auto-focus mode.
Has anyone noticed that the 1st camera on the rear of the s10+ does nothing?
Was playing around with the cameras and I covered the 1st one with my finger and scrolled through the wide-angle, normal and telescopic one, and none of them were obscured by my finger...
This is the camera I am talking about.

Dont worry!!
You are right my friend!!! It seems like the fricking photolens zoom it's there for nothing but dont worry , first of all you have to be with good illumination then the lens response when you made the switch from 1x and then from 2x but you will literally see what I mean by doing this. Instead of just put your finger in the lens and then zoom, first stay steady....zoom and then put your finger little by little you will see how your finger appears in the display and then bum! Like magic the software do all by it self by disappearing the finger. So you now know that the lens it's there and that it works, but it doesn't works as you thing.

i tried this on my s10+ and it works as you said exactly but i can't understand why , do you think it switches from optical zoom to software digital zoom when the lens is blocked?
Exactly
Thats right
When you put your finger infront of the lens and then zoom, you dont give a chance for the lens to "activate" so technically when you are blocking the telephoto lens, the main camera is the only activated when you, shoot 2x, and you don't allow this procedure, so the main camera does all the work, basically what the first camera does, is to take a better shoot in zoom pair by pair with the main camera believe me, the mate 20 pro does exactly the same, but the device forces a little bit more with the same result.
