[Q] Camera settings - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know on some of the other htc devices the camera iso needed to be set to 800 for taking good photos. Does it need to be set to it on the evo as well or can it be left at auto?

[Q] Camera MP quality Question???

ok i have the Stock camera app set at 8mp 3264x1952 and quality HIGH. Thing is i notice when i take the pics and look at them on my comp they are only showing around 1.4MP for each photo. Is this normal? with the Vigntte app i can get the camera to take about a 4-5mp photo(with the settings on that turned to 8mp high also).
Did i set someting in the setting wrong? or do the camera naturally do this?

[Q] Taking Videos

Hello, does anyone know if the there is a way to automatically set the ISO to 800 when selecting the video app because the only way you can take good videos (no lag) is opening the photo app, setting the ISO from auto to 800, selecting video then take the video. However, you then have to go back to the photo mode and reset the ISO to auto, otherwise the pictures will be to noisy. Please help me and other Desire users - as its a right pain !!!

i'm afraid that's the only way, blame HTC for not putting an ISO option in the camcorder
when it comes to me i have ISO set to 800 all the time

[Q] Camera settings

Why does the camera set the settings on 0.3 megapixels instead of 5 mpx (which is the maximum). I just found this out and I havn't changed anything in the settings by my own.
You guys should look it up since the device does it by itself.
Is that so? Mine never did that... I'm curious now: does it change it back to 0.3MP when you set it in 5MP?
Not sure if this explains it, but I've noticed that if you switch to the front facing camera to take a picture, then switch back to the main camera, the resolution setting stays at the maximum resolution of the front facing camera (640x480) and you have to manually change it back to 5MP.
Mine doesn't have that problem.

Cameras and picture quality

Hey all, I've wondered this for a while - Does the quality of pictures change depending on the version of Android/what camera app you are using? Or is that entirely hardware dependent?
For instance - I am using Pure's 3.0 ROM, which is awesome, and the camera quality is the same as I would expect from any GB ROM. But would something like ICS employ some new tricks via post processing or something that would result in better pictures?
Just curious.
Anyone?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA
I don't believe the ROM will have any effect on your image quality. The only thing that would change the picture quality would be a camera app such as HDR Camera.
I haven't done any scientific testing. But I have found the CM camera to be a little better than the stock Sense camera, but without as many features like face detection. However it also has a "deblur" ISO setting that allows the auto ISO to extend past 400, up to 800 without having to set it yourself. Auto ISO in Sense only seems to go to 400 without you having to manually set it in the camera settings. Otherwise it's more dependent on the sensor (ISO performance, BSI), lens, and the aperture (depth of field, better low light performance). I would love to have the camera out of the One S/X or even the iPhone 4S. But the Incredible's isn't bad for when it was made.
