Hey,
my wife is expecting a baby, so I decided to invest in a good mobile camera. Having read lots of positive reviews about p30 pro camera I decided to go for it. However, so far I have mixed feelings about it - pics at times are stunning, and other times I can't set focus settings right.
Here are some pics to illustrate the problem.

I got this result first time with my Xperia xz premium.
IS there any way to block focus so that it does not try to set either on the face or the background, but both of these at the same time?
Pics are not showing but you might want to turn off AI since it's probably going into portrait mode.

Well, it's not the case. AI doesn't change a thing. Unfortunately for some reason pics don't show, and I'm not allowed to post links as I'm under 10 posts. If you quote my original post l, there you can find the urls. I know it's a bother, but I'd appreciate if you could have a look

Yes, AI change some things in a photo.
In portraid mode blur background.
Some of the pics were taken in the auto mode with disabled ai, others in the pro mode. The outcome is as in the pics - a random thing

move it just a little to the right... now it's against a white background...
and here it is again:
This image is from earlier today... no marks!!
Yes , and may God have mercy on its soul.
Seriously though - I dunno. It doesnt look good, thats for sure. Are you pressing it hard when taking the pics ? Have you tried with the back cover off ? Did you try upgrading the camera software ?
In the camera app, try to put the white balance to auto and y menu, advanced, second page put flicker adjustment to auto.
Regards.
yeah actually those pics were taken with the camera cover off except the one earlier that day when it was working fine.
This morning I woke up, tried using my camera again, and it was back to normal!
very strange...
dude youe camera is better than my kaiser's camera
dont worry about it, try taking the cover of the battery and take some shots (compare difference)... the plastic protectant lens (external) is pretty rubbish so any scratch even if tiny will cause problems
nb. nice celing mobile

I have the same problem when looking at the LCD, but it doesn't show up in the picture itself. I don't know its very weird. Its like your 2nd and 3rd picture.
well first of all greetings to all
I come with a bug in my last rom for kaiser me crazy that follows to any of you give me an idea
While the problem is the camera to take pictures in the biggest resolution is mp, the camera is left wondering and not save the photos, the odd thing is that if you take the photo from lowest to highest resolution to reach 3 mp stores the pictures and making good
the video works great hope that can help me because it is the only bug that got my rom
spends about 120 seconds and then stop thinking and do not save the photo
excuse my English

???????????????????????
Let me see if I got that correctly: your camera is not saving the photos you take, but it does save the photos when taken at a lower resollution?
That sounds like very strange behavior. I would suggest a re-flash, maybe a different ROM.
Do you have an SD card in? Have you double checked all possible save locations for the photos?
if so as you say my problem is to cook the rom myself, and I have reviewed and can not find the solution, I have tried other roms and they work the camera, not in my rom.
does not save in the sd, unless I make a decision and I'm making up little by little and takes and stores up to the maximum resolution, but if I take a maximum time resolution is not
excuse my English, if I have not posted in the right place
So this is a ROM you cooked yourself?
So, this issue is happening in your cooked ROM but not with other ROMs?
If so, I have cooked for many devices and this is the first time through, so ask in the forum to see if a cook helped me with this problem since it is the only bug in my rom
thanks for reply, excuse my English
Hi Guys
Just found yesterday this gear for photography. Think its a great idea to enjoy our great S6 / S6 Edge camera . If somebody of you have photography as a hobby I think it will be interesting for you as well.
I have my two tripods for DSLR Photography of landscape image... but with this part I think it will be a great solution as well for the "Androphotography"
What do you think about this part ?
Shoulderpod S1
nice, i would love to see it in action.
Only problem i see, is if i know im taking big photos i take my SLR.
My phone is more of a - i have it everywhere take snaps thing.
So i would forget to take the grip with me!
i think HandlePod is a more fitting name since the inclusion of 'shoulder' implies some sort of stablisation like a shoulder rig would give.
for video, i have this (freebie) selfie stick i use as a handle grip...

to use as a table top tripod, i have a phone holder i attach to an Arca swiss style QR plate like so...
or if i'm traveling with my tripod, like so...
but since i pretty much have a photo camera married to my body all the time, i'll mount it to the top should i ever want to take a photo with it as well as being able to use it as a larger live view and having full control over the camera like so...
but the shoulderpod s1 does combine most of these functions into one pretty portable piece.
I will order my shoulderpod S1 next days for sure
I have been using Snapchat frequently, but I have noticed that ever since a month ago, when I specifically record videos on Snapchat, there is a black bar on the top and bottom, I am assuming the aspect ratio is off? You can't change the camera settings via the Snapchat app, so I was wondering what could be causing this...
It takes pictures fine though. Really would like to fix this issue, as it is awkward sending a video via Snapchat with black bars making it look like as if I am using some type of ancient phone...
Can you send a screenshot so that we can see what you are seeing? AFAIK it may be an update affecting video

Sorry I just saw this! So I took a random picture of the Chicago Skyline via Google Images (if for some reason this post gets flagged, the original picture can be found here: http://monkeywrenchplumbers.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/IMG_44852.jpg).
Anywho, this is how videos on Snapchat turn out (again, I didn't take this picture!) but basically, imagine that picture was a normal 10 second video on Snapchat, that is how the video is usually outputted as, with the two black bars:

Can one get any closer than the XZ1?
That's definitely one of the drawbacks I find on the previous XZ series cameras. Wondering if they've improved it or not... since it's a similar module I think I know the answer.
Here's a crop of a garden spider I took a few days ago.
just tried to take a Macro... it needs about 7-10cm to get rid of the blur... i'll do some advanced testing with Manual Mode and a tripod
---------- Post added at 18:09 ---------- Previous post was at 17:25 ----------
Okay... here we go...
Auto Mode:
10cm

}
9cm (already somewhat blurry)
8cm (totally blurry)
Difference Between Manual Mode an Auto Mode is almost nonexistent
Manual Mode:
Auto Mode:
(Keep in mind, the Imgur compression which destroys the picture.... too lazy to upload original picture)
Oh... and if you think you can just switch to Manual Mode and set Manual Focus distance to the minimum... well, check the two hidden pictures above... this one is the same excep Manual Focus distance instead of Auto... same distance.
So yeah.... it's even worse -.-
Seems about the same as the XZ1, that's what I figured (but with a sharper, cleaner image).
I've been spoiled by my old Lumia 950 XL's camera's macro ability I guess.
We'll have to see if the module in the XZ2 Premium or their newer 48mp fairs any better.
Focus setting will make the difference I think
