Hey,
My digital camera (Canon A75) got broken. It's too old and there's no point in fixing it. But I had a weird idea, do you think it's possible to implement Canon's CCD chip into the Universal? I believe this part of the camera is still intact. I have absolutely no experience with this type of hardware so I figured I'd ask before attempting anything.
Is there some kind of standard to this stuff? I'm assuming that besides hardware issues there's also the lense that has to fit exactly the same. I'm not expecting to put Canon's zoom lense or anything, because that would be useless on the universal. I just want a higher quality image.
Maybe someone can point me to the right direction or spec pages. I'm not sure where to look for this.
It would be cool to have a 5MP camera on the universal
Thanks

hi,
few days ago I dropped my desire on the ground and since then I have this camera issue - I cant focus objects that are more than 30 cm far from camera - it's all blury. in close it works very good, like it should.
all that i could figure out is - that focusing mechanism stucks at certain point and cant focus objects in far.
i wanted to ask if anyone has had similar problem?
is this camera defect repairable or should I buy new one? and are cameras for desire sold seperately anyway?
Thanks in advice.
The Camera isnt like a digital camera, there is no Optical (moving/mechanical) zoom, its all Digital Zoom, cameras are repareable and you can proably pick one up off ebay
Oddly enough when you take the picture and see it on the Phone/Computer is it blurry??

in title there is link of the example of what I get from my camera
Oddly enough it looks like tap to zoom on the keyboard, but with things in teh distance they are slightly blurred as an out of focus camera effect, oddly enough have you tried flashing the same ROM again??
Additionally you can always look at the repair option just as a safety net, ebay should have cameras (might be hard to spot to start off with though) and you can always look to the shops for repair info/advice, just dont tell them you dropped it like i did, as it appears warrenties dont cover accidental damage (damn Apple Store)
there is no changes when I take photo with flashlight - it's still blurry.
so, do you have any idea why pictures in distance is out of focus?
couldnt it be some kind of mechanical defect?
I have the exact same issue martinzg.
Will focus up close but not on anything over a foot away.
Contacted HTC this morning waiting for a reply.
I have the same problem here.. any news?
exact same problem here
old post, but I have the same issue !
Anyone a solution ?

Anyone else have this problem with the front camera on their Epic?
The front camera on my Epic appears to have some kind of dirt underneath the glass. It looks like some kind of white lint or haze or dust or something has gotten underneath the screen/glass and in front of the front camera. If I turn the front camera on, it looks like I'm looking through a thick fog. If I look at the front of my Epic, the front camera lens shows up as a little white dot.
I can't see any possible way of cleaning short of taking the darn thing apart.
My dilemma is that I don't use the front camera, so I don't want to go through the trouble of un-rooting my phone to take it into Sprint for a replacement (I heard they won't honor any warranty work if your phone is rooted/rom-ed). But on the other hand, maybe I'll need the front camera at some point in the future.
Any similar experiences, suggestions, remedies would be appreciated.
I think its just cause its a ****ty camera.. really though I've only used it like twice
Cd's or tapes?
The front-facing camera on other Epics are noticeably better than my own, and I can see dust/dirt/something on my front camera that is conspicuously absent on others.
Edit: there are a few youtube videos showing complete disassembly. I hate video guides, so I had ignored them previously, but they do a good job showing the details.
Only slightly improved pictures after cleaning, but worth it. It does take considerably effort and much worry to disassemble. I also did not disconnect everything the videos show (like the ribbon cables - too risky for me).
Has anyone used any kind of telephoto lens like this one? I was thinking about getting one but I’ve never really used one before. I know Olloclip makes some good ones for iPhones and I think Galaxys. I go to a lot of concerts and would like something to help take pictures when I’m perhaps too far away to get one with my phone so I don’t have to carry a regular camera with me.

Okay, so I know no one likes the look of themselves when they catch glimpse of their face in selfie mode when you first open an app like Snapchat or front-facing cam is already activated when you go to take a pic etc, but, wow, I feel like a monster when I see how I look using the Note 7.
Arm fully stretched out and the pics/video look great, but why is it so disgustingly distorted up close? My head looks so long and weird. I know front-facing cams have always had a little distortion, but I've never experienced it this bad before (coming from 9 years of iPhones and brief flings with a Galaxy Note 1 and a LG G3).
Can anyone explain why? Will any of us have an ounce of self-esteem left after a few weeks of use?! lol
Sorry to say but you might just be ugly.
If i recall correctly there's a "beauty" setting that change the way your face looks, maybe it's on and you just don't like how it changes it ?

Don't get me wrong, holding the phone with arm fully extended to take a selfie produces great results (with or without settings changed). I'm talking about when it's close to the face. The lens makes things look really out of shape. Never seen anything like it on a phone before.

I think because it is a wide angle lens so the edges of the camera lens makes you look a little weird. That's less so the case with the portion of the image that's more centered. Is the entire image distorted or only the edge portion of it?
mines super wide to what im accustomed too. Looks silly
Try to put your face in the middle of the camera, not near the edges.... Everything near the edges will look a little distorted since the camera is spheric and the image is a square, so thats just a weird effect.
When you use other apps that take 4:3 pictures you won´t notice this distortion because you are not using the edges of the camera, it will only happen in 16:9 pictures.
Basically every phone nowadays. Every one wants a wider selfie camera but don't realize wide lenses have a big byproduct. DISTORTION.
EVERYONE WANTS A WIDE ANGEL CAMARA. NOT SURE YOU KNOW EVERYONE, but if that was true then every one is an dumb *as. Wide angel is for scenery to shoot landscape not to point at once face and look like a blower fish.
My phone is useless with this wide angel camera and the idiots at Google messed up since the camera app was supposed to correct the image but doesnt work. SO we should be asking for a recall and a refund, but we are so stupid that we just deal with it. THis is a defect people. I have go pro with wide angel camera and my face doesnt look like long or fat head. COMPLAIN PEOPLE AND GET A REPLACEMENT OR A YOUR MONEY BACK> I"m a professional photographer, so I'm telling you. You all got scammed
So I got a main camera replacement (from ebay), since my old camera has weird blurry spots on the lens. The replacement camera fixes this issue, but seems incapable of focusing on far objects. Alright, just a camera with a broken autofocus, I'd think. What's weird is that I can hear and see the autofocus working on objects <2 m. For instance, the camera makes good macro photos and adjust the focus when I adjust the distance to the object. Does anyone have a explanation or a possible solution to this problem? I'm afraid of another hardware issue, but I'm hoping someone could at least explain what's wrong.
ps. I tested with and without the lens cover to exclude a dirty cover from creating the problems
Thanks in advance!
Most cheap camera replacement out there is not original.
Check it again if it's original or not
