[Q] Why is there no preview of pictures in the 4.2 camera app - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey, installed 4.2 on the GN and love it so far. I also love the new camera interface, but hate, hate how I can't preview the pictures immediately after I take them any more?
Is that normal? Is there a workaround for this?

Thanks dude. Another question, I recently copied all my photos from my other phone into the DCIM>Camera folder, but when I view them all in the gallery, they are not sorted by date like they were in my old phone?
I'm assuming it goes by file name or something, but is there a way to change that?

FINALLY!! Touch-auto-exposure in Jelly Bean camera!!

For the longest time most Android camera apps are incapable of auto adjusting exposure to suit the touch-focus area, a feature that's found in HTC Sense camera and iOS camera. Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I just realized that this feature has finally been added to Jelly Beam on GNexus!! For this feature alone I'll stick with Jelly Bean instead of AOKP ICS.
Just wanted to share this as I thought some might find it useful.
Cheers.

Edit: I'm really surprised by how many people have absolutely no idea what touch-exposure is. The keywords are highlighted in red above. If you still have no idea what it does, borrow an iPhone from your friend, try touch-focus a few different areas with different brightness levels within the same view, you'll know what I'm talking about. Sadly most people don't even know what they are missing out....
This is awesome if true!
You do aokp will start working on jb as soon as the source comes out....

Of course, but until then, this makes it easy for me to choose between AOKP ICS & JB.
another feature I miss in camera is the pause button while recording video, unfortunately this as not been added

I think it's automatic... uh "touch-auto-exposure" is in the name. Wherever you touch on the screen automatically applies the correct exposure.
You can also take pictures while recording video, just tap on screen.

I'm always baffled why Google didn't implement this earlier. iOS and HTC Sense have had it for a while.
And guess what, even Galaxy S3 still does NOT have this feature..
better known as touch to focus :silly:
I'm confused. What exactly are we talking about? Does touch-to-focus do something it didn't do before? And autofocus doesn't do it?
I think Touch to Focus was absent in AOSP until JB. I used it today without realizing it is a new feature, works exactly as it should.

[Q] Is there any camera mod for gsm galaxy nexus ?

Hello all, i'm newbie here and i search for camera mods for galaxy nexus, is there anyone have a suggestion for me ? Please help me
I'm not quite sure what do you mean by camera mods, mind if you elaborate?
If you're looking for the stock camera apps with more option, CM has it, it even includes HDR (Although doesn't work anywhere near as good as the one on the N4), you'll lose photosphere and picasa though.

It allows you to capture a greater dynamic range between the darkest and the lightest part of the image.
Example
It doesn't work that well on the Gnex anyway, so it's pretty useless for now.

Well you should, press the lower left camera icon in the camera app, a couple option should pop out, one of them is a globe-looking icon, THAT'S PHOTOSPHERE, right there.

Brilliant Backgrounds for N4 (1536 x 1280)

First, I take no credit for creating these beautiful backgrounds (that belongs to the photographers / cgi wizards / illustrators).
Originally I cropped all the wallpapers but in retrospect they only needed to be re-sized.
I've taken down the cropped images and uploaded the best ones uncropped. I would recommend
deleting the cropped images and getting these instead.
Thumbnail links go directly to full 1536 x 1280 image.
Click thumb, image opens in a new tab, long press to save, set wallpaper from gallery.
Enjoy..........
Thanks!!
Edit, never mind
Awh man. On the XDA app when I click save on the thumbnail its extremely low res

Oops, forgot to mention that. When downloading from phone, click thumb, new tab opens with image, long press to save, then it'll be in gallery.
I saw you got it but this could help someone else.

If you tap the thumbnail you want, it should open a new tab with the image. Then if you long press that image, you can save it.

If you're rooted & using adfree, maybe that affects the download. I'm not sure why it's not working.
Oh well, you could always download on pc and transfer. They're all high quality and worth the trouble.
I just added 13 more so I hope you're able to get them.
I'm looking for the wallpaper from the AOSPA 4.2.2. ROM. Do you have it? Can you post it?

This works for me. Does the gallery crop these? It kinda looks like it when I try to set it as my wallpaper...
Edited original post and deleted all the cropped background images.
They look better un-cropped so I picked the best ones and only
re-sized them. I recommend deleting the cropped images and
getting these instead.
Added ten more.

It functions as a separate app.
There are a few issues(even if in beta), but I like the overall concept.
Panoramic mode crashes
No sphere mode
Not as many photo options, eg. timer, resolution, exposure.
Records video in 720p
No other video options
Minor for me:
Swiping near edge brings up pie for me.
This is cool ... Couldn't get the wrist twist to open camera app function to work, and not sure what the slo camera setting does (unable to activate) but I do find it pretty quick to use. It's missing a few of the basic aosp settings, most importantly exposure comp. Autofocus algorithm seems to be much faster than cyanogenmod camera. Def prefer slide to zoom. If the camera on the gnex wasn't so crappy and I didn't need to exposure compensate as often as I do, I'd probably use this. Really looking forward to the new cm camera though, hopefully they can glean some design ideas from this.
Thanks for posting!
