Before the photo is taken everything looks excessively grainy, but it seems that the dual LED's fix that right up. Unfortunately, video looks really bad at night.

It has nothing to do with the Dual LED's. Daytime shots in good light do not trigger the LED's so making statements like that only causes confusion. The grainy aspect is for quicker response times on the screen as you don't need high resolution screen quality to shoot high quality pictures. You just have to make sure it's in focus and what you want to shoot.
Videos looks really bad at night because you are using a PHONE CAMERA and LENS. Turn on the LED's with the Torch APP and light the way for a little better night video shooting.
Heck of a lot better than IPHONE right? No flash = no night time shots.
Have you removed the plastic from the camera? I have some friends who.didn't realize it had a plastic.

Noticed a white fading band at the top of my camera image. Here is a screen grab where u can see what I'm taking about. It fades son its hard to tell if its even all the way across as some sort of UI design or if its my camera being faulty/ shifted out of position . Any thoughts?

Wow. I see it. Took me awhile to figure it out. My phone has the same thing. It might be normal or a theme thing. Lets see what other people have to say.

I have this as well, it seems more pronounced when viewed on the phone but when you look at the screengrab on the pc, you can barely notice it.
Also i tried taking a picture of what was in the viewfinder and the picture comes out as pure black, with no fading band. I'm assuming this is a software issue rather than a faulty camera or bad camera placement.
Have you noticed when you take a picture in low light and then click on the thumbnail on the right and start moving the screen around the edges of the photo go all weird ?
I also have this, I think this is just a frame around camera app.
Hello.
First of all, sorry for opening a new thread about this, but I need help quick with this watch.
I have bought the MBW-150 classic edition through Ebay, and I just recieved it today. It looks great, but I think mine it has the lcd partially gone. I mean, I have seen in reviews and on Youtube the light that makes the screen and I thought it makes a "strong" light, but mine looks less bright.
Here's a photo of my watch:

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So, I would like to know if this is the normal light that can do the watch or if it should be brighter, because if that's the case, I'll have to return the watch to the seller, and that's why I ask for quick help.
---------
For example, take a look at this video of the watch:
Here the watch is in a bright room and the light looks "strong", but my watch doesn't look like that...
Help please.
Great, no help...
Well, I think I have found another problem. The watch has been charging the whole night and the indicator looks like in the photo.
Bad luck for me I guess... =___=
It's hard to say from your photo if it is light or not - in the dark I find mine to be brighter than what's on your photo - in the light I find mine to be similar to what yours looks in the photo. Not sure if you took the photo in the dark (presumably without flash) or well lit room. Sorry to hear about the battery problem too.
Unfortunately, they are known for going dim. I've had mine only a few months and I can barely see it in the light.
So, is anyone else having focusing issues when you get nice and close?
I've moved over from a Nexus S, which could get reasonably close to objects when taking photos and still manage to focus on them... but I'm finding the auto-focus on the One X simply refuses to latch onto the things I point it at.
Is it just me, a software issue, or can the camera on this thing not get that close?
A couple examples below. Red = where I touched, green = where it focused.
The remains of my SIM to micro-sim conversion.

My colleague's horrible banana (simultaneously less and more gross than you're expecting, but sfw)
Ugh, I'm not allowed to post outside links. Hopefully those images worked.
Edit: Score, they worked!
I have the same problem with mine. I can't get the camera to focus on close objects, even when setting it on macro mode.
I hope it's only a software bug that can be fixed.
JP.
Macro mode?
Hmm. Maybe I should look for that.
Yeah, I'm hoping it's something that gets sorted out in 1.28... whenever that comes out. Soon, please.
Me as well... Tried it today with no luck... It refuses to focus when I get really close... Tried turning on Macro "close up" mode and it still didn't focus...
I also just gave it a shot, no good. I'm going to be really sad if this is not a software issue
I've seen a ton of macro close-ups on the web shot with the x, look in the best pictures thread...there a bunch of nice macros...I agree though, the field of focus is rather small and inconsistent in some...others look fine. hopefully it does get worked out for all.
it should be due to the limitation of the F/2.0 lens

Are you saying the limitations with close-up shots is because of the F/2.0 lens?
Just look at the picture I included. Zoomed out looks fine, just a little over sharpened. The minute you zoom in, you can see the oil painting effect. You guys think this can ever be fixed?

I had this on my s5. Could be a software issue
Dumb questions but it appears you sent screen shots of the pictures.. Can you upload the actual files? It could be the screens over sharpening but may not actually be in the image.. Also the stock camera defaults to 10mp but you can up it to 13 to see if it helps with the detail.. Also make sure your camera lense doesn't have a smudge on it.
Mine is the same way, though probably worse. Very disappointed in the camera on this thing. Its all software related, so hopefully someone can find a fix.
I posted a few pictures (linked directly, not uploaded) of something very similar in the picture thread. Seems HDR is a very big source of the issue, and looking at your picture, its certainly an HDR image. I'm on to A Better Camera, and its a little better but not much.
For as far as you zoomed in I think it looks OK. I can't shoot now zoom later with the g3. ?

I'll be receding my Asus Zenfone Zoom really really soon, so will be doing my usual camera comparison tests but will use this post to upload some photos from this little gem.
Okay first shot using super resolution mode, handheld -

It's snowing at the moment so that doesn't help in terms of taking lots of photos. More soon though.

Thanks for these shots. Unfortunately it has bad post processing in low light, possibly even day light shots. My G4 has much better quality. I was hoping for this to have a superb camera but to be honest, it doesn't beat the S4 Zoom that I once had (which took superb shots).
