[Q] Custom Camera Drivers for GB - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Xperia ARC not ARC S. I like the Camera clarity of MIUI Rom in Day time, but at night it gives lot of dots in the photo. Stock Camera gives better photos in Night as it supports lots of Custom Presets.
Is there any application available for better camera clarity than stock?? Also it should support Macro Mode tooo

You can't really improve the camera performance by changing ROM - but you can find some camera modification ZIPs that changes the quality of the photos by reducing compression. Though, those ZIPs are flashable thru Clockworkmod Recovery.
Use search button and U will find them!
Personally I like the lgCamera app a lot. It's free and comes with a lot of options (compression, focus and much more)
also captures videos nicely with the option to fix the focus which I really miss in most other apps
i think Camere isn't depend on Rom. It depend on you Apps . You can choose LG camere ( search in 4rum). In my opinion i like Camera zoom FX with alots of awesome feature
Any stock based ICS Rom with 4.1 Cybershot Camera Mod by Rizal Lovins.

JB Roms don't even have stock JB Camera, they use the ICS Legacy one which is worse than Stock Sony's.
If you want to use your Camera a lot (like me for example) Stock-based roms are the way to go.

Same as this guy.
I don't know why Camera Zoom FX always takes better pictures than the stock camera app
I'm really interested in Camera Zoom FX. Does anyone know if it works on Cyanogenmod 10? The stock camera app on it doesn't have enough settings

Xperia Arc S camera

Good Morning. I have 2 Xperia Arc S.
I have a problem on my camera
1ST ARC S:
- Camera's focus mode doesn't work. It doesn't focus on anything. They told me to clean it but moving the cam to this phone. The phone got an error saying Camera not available.
2ND ARC S:
- Camera's autofocus works but when I turn to normal mode then select Landscape and Night Scene the camera turns blurdish at any angle. When going to Infinity in Video nor Photo mode it turns all blurdish how do I fix this? Thanks.
Hi !
Do you have a recovery ? Try wiping cache. Or flash CyberShot Camera Mod that you can find under Themes and Apps section (only for stock ICS).
You can also try to use any other camera application from PlayStore. It should work.
For the Night Scene, it's normal as Arc S camera give quite bad results in low light conditions (it deals with its ISO levels).
You can just use it for a static scene after seconds of focusing.
Hope I helped.
Cheers.

Using 12mp Camera in modded SL

I used Cyanogenmod for a long time, now I am in Carbon rom (latest KitKat). But problem is all the roms for SL are based on S. As a result, the highest quality of camera is 8mp. Though, SL's stock camera is 12mp.
Is there any way I can capture 12mp sharp images in my SL? Would using alternative camera apps help? I think not. So what to do?

Even Xperia S stock camera is 12 mp. Use the Google camera, it will give You support for 12mp resolution.
I will try and report. I hope it works

Best Camera app/strategy for the Z1 Compact???

Hey guys!
I recently bought the Z1 Compact, mainly for the camera and the small size.
Now, I have been going through some content on the web and have come across people reporting against Sony's compression strategy which basically comes to play in the Superior Auto mode in its own camera app (which it does while upsampling or whevever).
Now, I also see some other camera apps on the market like Google's own camera app and Flickr's app and would like to know if there's any difference in image quality between them.
Also, what's the best 'strategy' to take pictures with this phone.. take 8 MP in Superior Auto mode or take full-resolution shots and then compress them via some software on the computer?? (and if yes, which software and how?).
Also, will I see any difference in the camera performance if I install Cyanogenmod on my device.If yes, what sort?
Waiting to hear back
Cheers!
Use hd camera pro an camera 360 ultimate

You will see a difference, as CM (and every other AOSP ROM) doesn't have the fine-tuned camera drivers Sony uses. So image quality will be lower.
I use Google Camera for the panorama/photosphere functionalities, and Sony's camera for everything else. On Xposed there is a mod that changes the Superior Auto resolution to the max resolution, you could try that.
