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.

True or false???

That quality of pictures and video recording(720p) is much better in fabric 2.3.7 android than in any custom rom/kernel?

There is no 2.3.7 released to other phones.
And no, quality is not better because Sony has not made camera libs open-source.

How to recive maximum from video camera(720p)?
I need only that funcion from arc s,what rom/kernel gives best resolts?

Best camera is on ICS with Cybershot mod in themes and apps
GB roms also have a very very good camera and also the stock ICS camera is nice
the worst is the camera on CM roms which have Legacy Camera

Any recommendation for ICS rom/kernel for best 720p video?
Or to go back to stock GB or GB rom?

every ics rom/kernel has a very good camera .. you can make it better by flashing cybershot mod or it could be included in the rom
If you want camera features quality better than you better stay on ICS

Query regarding Camera

Hi all..., i want to ask a quick question.. can i install camera. apk and other camera extention files From xperia arc s ICS 4.0.4 firmware to my Sony xperia s.??.. because i m rooted and have ICS 4.0.4 installed........ reason to install that camera app is because i previously had sony xperia arc s on which i installed the latest version ics 4.1.B.587 World and trust me the pictures it took were great and a point to be noted that it did very low compression to photos. My generally taken photos size were +2 mb normally 2.5mb and here on my xperia S if i take photos in 12 MP camera mode , the file size is hardly 2 mb while Arc s was 8mp only.......
So i think sony software has high compression for photos which may lead to loss of details when zoomed ..............so what you guys say should we try to install Arc s ics .587 camera apk to our xperia s??
Note: the information above given is true and best to my xperience .... i m not drunk and in my senses so kindly give Appropriate Suggestions

Xperia V Camera Mod 5.7.2 Cyber-shot
i used this one
Xperia V Camera Mod 5.7.2 Cyber-shot
perfect with stock 4.0.4. fast autofocus, perfect automatic makro, higher picture quality (up to 4,5mb per picture, instead of 2,5mb), no laggy full hd video... best user interface and functionality i tested.
!!! first install 4.7.2. read instructions.

it is only for stock ics. cm9, miui... are not supported
Sent from my Xperia Acro S using xda app-developers app

Excellent mod... But I found 4.7.2 more good because 5.7.2 one is very noisy in low lightsss I want to revert back to 4.7.2 can I do that??

You are right. stock rom with cybershot mod is the best i've ever seen on my acro s. compression under stock without mod is much to high.

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
