why HOX camera is not good *

hi guys,
im not photographer , but today when i compare my HOX with SGS3 result made me upset a bit .
tried under the different lighting positions , all were good with SGS3.
have been using for 2 years IncredibleS , pics were much better than HOX .
any ideas agree or disagree wit me ?

Hox has very good camera module, you need to play a bit with settings. On auto sometimes it's crappy.

You shouldn't use widescreen mode in widescreen mode you don't have 8mpx you will have just 6 mpx set sharpness to -1 and iso to 100 and this should be the best config for the hox

Use some camera tweak and then you will see some changes.

Personally i'm using sharpness -2, iso & exposure depends on situation and after photo is taken i'm correcting white balance (not always) in editor (because in camera options htc didn't include all AWB settings :<). Photos are grainy but there is a lot of details... overall it's a decent shooter with really clever interface.

I'm a real photographer in real life.. and I always play a lot with my toy camera a.k.a LOMO that still using negative as module.. and what I saw here is modern people style thinking.. my friend, my sensei(teacher) tell me this.. 'a good photo come from a good photographer, not a good camera'.. just use iyapota mod..
and here is sunny day configuration,,
exp = +1
cont = +2
Sat = +1
sharp = +1
ISO = 'it sunny, so test it with low iso 1st and make sure when you are using camera, turn you phone brightness to max so you can see if the photo failed'
Hope this help a little.. For night or dark.. we need a better sensor to focus.. so I always bring torch with me so I can light up subject for focusing before I snap.

shouldnt i select widescreen ?

It all up to you.. it doesn't matter wide or not.. I always use wide.. just make sure you shooting with correct light sources.. that actually what every photographer should know.. low light will giving you a great picture sometime with our f2.0 aperture but any picture still need correct light value to light up photo.. So keep try to find a good and compatible setting for you need. And don't compare picture when it still in phone.. better use pc to see the real quality of a picture. And you need to love the camera so you can learn to use it. Here some sample.
Auto Mode
Sunset Mode
Low Light Panorama
HDR
Or just head to this Thread to see how great our camera if we know how to use it well
Hope it help you.

Are you sure about this? The many comparisons I have seen online always show the One X having deeper colours and less noise in low light. Pictures taking on the S3 seem a little... bland.

My last phone was an IncS and I have to say the HOX outperforms it. While the megapixels are the same, the quality of the lens is better and the image chip in the HOX is better and produces better photos.
Regardless, if I need to take any photos, I use my dslr.

I Agree. I think anything over 8MP will only look good on big screens such as TV's. Have a look at this: http://gizmodo.com/5888552/reminder-megapixels-dont-matter

Yup! Correct! It actually need to base on our purpose 1st before saying it is good or not.. Let me give you a situation.. You need to snap 100 of people in one picture.. And you'll need to use a higher mp so when we try to zooming closer when viewing in pc or media viewer it will not have distort face..

Exactly. All that matters is a bigger lens to capture more light, type of sensor and focal ratio

Desire hd camera IS THE BEST HTC has made to date it leaves the hox dragging behind faraway with it image processor and fast shutter ( nobody cares about how fast they take the shot HTC but rather the end result picture quality)

Camer - Only 3.2 MP instead of 5 MP

Hello everyone,
I've been trying out a few camera apps and on two of them it showed the MP my camera was on and they both said 3.2 instead of the 5 mp it should normally be.. One of the apps is ProCapture, I've been messing around with the settings a bit, but i can't seem to get it to 5 mp?
I'm really confused and I wonder how I can fix this?
Cheers

You have to buy the full version for full resolution. I know that the ProCapture free version is just a demo with limited res so you can see all the feature but at low res.
(According the the apps info. I haven't bought the full version so I can't confirm it will be 5mp but safe to assumed it will be)

Note that the default 16:9 ratio doesn't use the full sensor and is 3.7mp. switching wide-screen off give the 'full' 5mp.

Ok, thanks alot guys. Are there any camera apps you use that you find give you "better" or sharper quality pictures? Because with my stock camera it seems to be a bit random..

Honor 8 pro Camera in low light

Hi, I've been using the H8pro for quite few days now. I bought the phone for its camera capability. Though it takes excellent photos in regular conditions, I'm depressed to see the results in low light which equals the quality of a 3mp Nokia's cameras of yesteryear's. Any advice on how to use camera in low light. My Nikon d300s is too heavy to carry around hence this was a easy substitute but leave aside the low light capability

Can you upload somewhere photos please? I have Honor 9 and Im a bit disappointed of qaulity in low light pictures wit auto mode, I want compare my and yours photos. If I use nightmode photos are excellent

Sorry that's my family pic. But I'll take a pic and share with you. If u use a tripod and steady your phone at a low shutter speed with low iso

Auto focus is never recommended. Even in dslrs. I wish some update came up for enhancing camera

Maybe capturing raw image (pro mode) will help. That way you can edit them later.

That wouldn't help if the subject motion blur is present.

It is simply because the lack of OIS

More than the low light, I feel they should improve the daylight performance of the camera.
In daylight, the dynamic range and color balance is great but I feel the images aren't as sharpened as I would like them to be.

I never felt so. Maybe shaky hands cause that

That's personal opinion and it will differ.
But there can never be a situation where one can't improve something and so I feel they can improve the camera through software a bit more.

Back camera 8mp front 13mp would be nice if it was the other way around

Maybe I have good news
Well I tried messing around with the gcam 5.1 app and here is what i noticed.
First of all not all the functions work. Let alone the low resolution. Buuuut one cool feature i loved, the lens blur!
Tried it, makes nice dslr effect, even with selfies.
Now to my main point, i know its not new to you but i wanted to edit a photo that used a lens blur feature and went to higher the sharpness a bit, i got to 100% and photo did not look distorted!! Almost kept the image as it is but made it look naturally sharper! I shot some images with lens blur even for landscape usr it! Because that way the image will save all the details from around the object/landscape and once you go and sharpen the photo in photo editor you can go up to 100 (i suggest 50%) without seeing sharpness distortion but actually make a naturally sharper image which looked splinded! Maybe not a lot better than stock sony but this method makes lil sharper images than stock cameta on some level and a lot better than the 8.3mp option we are stuck with!

Picture Noise: What can be done?

Hello

unoffical GCam works wonders. I feel it's on par with the Google Pixel 2, or maybe better due to 16MP sensor.
