Doubt it, you'd have better results using a video editor to make it slow motion.

Doubtful, you'd be better off taking normal 720p video and putting it in a video editor program and adding slow mo like that. Even $300 Point and shoot cameras that have the option of taking slow mo lower the resolution to something like 3-5 MP's and the XP camera isn't really that good.

I doubt it,but even if it was, the video would be extremely dark and blurry

picture or video?
if you mean picture, try fast burst camera https://market.android.com/details?id=com.spritefish.fastburstcameralite&feature=search_result there's also a full version of that..
if you mean video to record them slomo, maybe you need a super power..

I had a LG Viewty at some point and that phone could shoot 120 pics a second and yeah it was dark and blurry unless you shot in sunlight. It was a fun little feature, but not really usefull and i would think it would be the same for the play.

Is there an Editor for android?
Sent from my R800i using XDA App

Afaik there aint one for android per se. Samsung made one for some of their devices running android. Someone ripped it and posted the apk and files here on xda. I tried it on my HTC Desire HD when I had that phone. It didn't work as it needed something in the touchwiz framework.

Why XPlay camera sucks ?

That's the question, camera app sucks (Xperia S camera app could be ported?).
If you take a photo and you zoom it quality really sucks, HTC Chachacha and LG OB takes better photos, and both have 5 mpx, I think the app compress photos so much, any solution ?

My brother has a HTC Chacha and its camera sucks, But I think the main reason the Camera is **** is because this device is mainly for gaming and not Camera, I wish it had a decent camera though.

Ya, but it takes better photos, compare, 5 mpx MUST HAVE better quality, another example, my iPod Touch 4 takes better photos and it has 0,3 mpx.

Build.prop edits will make your camera take higher res photos which look great
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100
ro.media.dec.jpeg.memcap=10000000
First attach is an abandoned bridge, Second is my nephew (dont worry He's not worried his face is on XDa ) They are 2592 x 1944 and look pretty good for a 5mp if you ask me

Will try, thanks in advance.
They dont appear using build.prop Edito.r
I take mine in 1024x768 but I never had the feeling that the pictures look bad /crappy.
But I also have both of those lines in my build.prop that 216monster postet. Removed the stock cam and am using 360cam. Its all good for me
// you have to use Root explorer or a programm like that, make the path r/w and then you can add lines to build.pro
I'll make this easy. The camera doesn't suck. First, the play is NOT meant to zoom, and when it does it's a DIGITAL zoom meaning it has to pixelate the images along with cropping down the image due the non adjustment of the camera's optics. The pictures that monster took as you can tell aren't zoomed and to be frank look pretty freakin sweet for being from a phone and not an actual camera which obviously is solely made for taking pictures. It's like saying why are the graphics on the play not as good as a ps3..

Pm me your gtalk if you'd like I can give you a hand . But using root explorer go into the build.prop and add the lines I posted at the very end. Save and exit and your good to go.

I can agree to that. People still swear by their Lg Dare cameras which was a 3.2 I believe. Higher MP is mostly for larger sized prints..

The problem I have with the Xperia Play camera is that the camera doesn't auto-focus very well. It always comes out blurry.
Is there a way to fix this ?

Perhaps set Manual Focus to Infinity and leave it there (unless you are doing a closeup shot)? The depth of field should be very large and keep everything in focus.
At work, distracting myself myself with XDA, so can't test.

Best Camera app

Since everybody knows that GS3 has quite a few problems with the stock application, i wonder what would you suggest being the best camera app available around?
I have to say that i tried so far quite a few:
Camera ICS+ - not impressed at all. Seems like the photos come out more blurry than they would using the default camera app
lgcamera pro - really buggy, but has a lot of potential in my view
camera360 - pretty good considering it is free, but not without it's issues
camera zoom fx - which i find the best, because it seems to take it's time to focus and the photos do come out a little bit better. Also, nice stabilization feature.
ProCapture - Camera & Panorama - produced a few good shots too
Try this one.. There is a free and paid edition... Worth the money.. Makes great pictures..

Remote Viewfinder is the best camera application for my galaxy s3. By using this app we will be able to control focus, geotagging, focus, timer, flash and photo size all from the app
Try "procapture" coupled with "photo gallery(fish bowl)" .
Buy "procapture" and take some pictures in different environment.then return it within the 15 min window.
Check the pictures u have taken and be amazed.
Photo gallery is free.
Been using "procapture" for 5 month and nothing comes close to this camera.
Fast burst and panorama supported.video not

Get better help if posting in the right place. Ask questions in Questions forums. This is (1) not about the HTC One M8 and (2) not a theme or app.

Most apps are going to perform poorly because of the way slow-mo actually works. There is a option on the video settinggns that records in slomotion and this is the ideal way of creating a slow motion video as it records more fames per second so u won't get all the chops you get when u try to slow-mo a regular video that is recorded with lower frames per second.

Maybe try importing the video into a video editing app, export from there and then send to Instagram? I've messed around with Kinemaster before, and it allowed me to import a slow motion vid. But, I think exported videos from Kinemaster will have a watermark near the bottom right of the video unless you pay for Pro. There's also VivaVideo and VideoShow.
Still have the problem.

Is there a workaround or hack to play youtube in 60fps???

The S4 can't play youtube videos in 720/1080p 60 fps. Is there a hack to allow us to watch in 60fps???
I used my dad's note 3, and he can watch youtube in 60fps, but not my s4. I can't watch certain videos in HD when they only allow 60fps for their 720/1080p videos. Sucks.
Example. Dawkins nba videos only uses 720/1080p 60fps. So I can only watch them in 480p. Gotta be an app that works around that.

I can't even get 720p on mine. I used to have it on custom roms but I went back to stock rooted and the highest I get is 480p
go to the youtube app settings and change the limit data usage.
60fps youtube, download install root explorer, start app, accept root access, go to root directory, system, hold and press build.prop, open in text editor, find ro.product.model=SGH-M919, change the "SGH-M919" to "GT-I9505", save backout, go to app settings application manager, all, clear data for google play market and youtube, reboot.
You can have a 1080p60 option but it will freeze while sound play, so i choose gt-i9505 to only have the 72060fps option instead of frozen 108060fps, also i recon you have cm12.1 instead of touchwiz because cm12.1 is more updated and faster than touchwiz, 40fps for touchwiz and 60fps for cm12.1 with performance enabled in settings, so if you want a true 60fps playback from youtube then install cm12.1 with the instructions from above over it,
Just leave a thanks, ill appreciate.

Thank you so much. I'm gonna try it right now.
Edit: It worked. Thank you.
A lot of videos start off glitched, and the screen is gray, but all you have to do is start the video back to 0:00, and it'll act right.
Gonna hold off on CM12.1. Never trust it with GPS and data and whatnot. I'm good with 40fps for now, maybe when I feel like experimenting a little, I'll try it out.
Edit #2: Now all videos start off with weird lines, unviewable and gray, but not the end of the world. Just have to start the video back to 0:00 and back to normal video. Not a huge deal.

I was on stock Metro PCS ROM and the highest quality I'd get was 480p rare to get 720p on videos just regular not 60fps. I flashed Albe's Lollirom and I get 720p and 1080p on every video I've watched that has that option and if the video has 720p60fps I get the option to use it too. I believe it's just an option on Lollipop because on KitKat I haven't seen it. If you want to flash Lollipop Touchwiz I recommend Lollirom or Osiris. Main difference is that Lollirom has lot S6 features and Osiris is more stock but with some features. Both are really good.
Ok this sucks. Yeah it "works", but now it glitches for every video and the playing it back at 0:00 doesn't work now. Changing back to sgh m919.
Edit: nvm, you gotta play it at 720p 60fps for my way to work.

How did you get it to work flawless. I changed the build prop but the 60fps video is kinda laggy and when watching something other than 720p60 the video is all glitchy

Yeah, it lags a lot, and other than 720 fps, glitchy, but I'm talking if I want to watch it in general. Works good enough for me.
I'm tempted to flash cm 12.1, because of what the other poster said about it being optimized for youtube videos in 60fps.

I think it's just lollipop that is optimized for it. I had Lollirom and it was smooth there. Switched back to kitkat and it's laggy. I think I'll just stick with KitKat because I get better performance in games than with lollipop. I would go with CM but the camera isn't really good compared to when using TouchWiz and the Samsung features aren't there.

Yeah, I prefer stock, because too many bugs with CM. I read an article that KitKat is the best you're gonna get with s4, in terms of having the latest stuff with no bugs.
And yeah, cm camera sucks. I'll just live with the laggy 60fps, and probably py change my buildprop back to sgh m919 if I can't stand it anymore.

It's not that bad. If you'd like to try it out what I would do is make a backup in two and have it to save to the SD Card and then flash a lollipop rom. That way if you don't like it you can just restore everything you had before you flashed lollipop.

I know it's been a long time lol but I went back to stock firmware because of problems I was having with my SIM card.... just flashed Hispasian ROM an hour ago and it has 720p60fps. No problems with it at all. There's also 1080p60 but the video just freezes.
