I know instagram crops photos, but the quality is also pretty shocking - Uploading without filters or any touchups within instagram itself.
I'm trying to play around with either taking the photo with the One X camera app first and then uploading, or ticking advanced camera options in instagram and doing it within the app - Does anyone know if this makes a difference?
Besides that any other tips or is it simply going to suck always?

the galaxy s1 had an amazing camera, it had lots of options, and was even altered so it could be loaded below 15% battery, during music being played, and a hardware shutter button added in. totally amazing.
butttt, the galaxy s2 on the other hand.. samsung added a picture and video editor app on this phone, how lovely right? WRONGGGG ALSKFDSFJLSD =[, they removed the cameras build in ability to select these options, so that you REQUIRE these photo and video editors just to be able to do what you could do directly from the camera before..
in the Video camera, you could pause and resume the video, making a nice group of memories all in one video. now that the video editor was added, this camera option was removed, so that you will have to edit together groups of videos, just to do what you were able to do before.
in the Picture camera, you were able to change the lighting and coloring of the picture, so many times id adjust the saturation, and take a sunset picture, now that the picture editor was added, you can no longer adjust these, you have to go back and edit over every single picture.. ugh
i love to ride my bike or rollerblade, or jog, or drive around, i love being outdoors, and i love listening to my music, but whenever i want to take a picture of some great sight, my music has to stop.. i take tons of pictures every day, why must it always force my music to stop..
while id love to see the galaxy s1 camera brought over to the s2, finding a replacement camera seems more likely.. does anyone know of a 3rd party camera app that is actually decent? ive never found a camera app that did any justice..
would loveeee to see any suggestions of 3rd party camera app, does anyone have one?
I use HDR+ which I find to be an amazing camera app for quality.
HDR Camera+
awesome, im going to check it out right now, thanks a ton my good sir
Also check out LGCamera and Camera 360 (both links to free versions - I use the Camera 360 Pro app)
Thanks for the HDR tip, btw. I'll go explore
i was looking for a camera app too... camera 360 is nice
i second hdr+. its simply fantastic...as for the gs1 camera..i thought it was average at best, and thats being kind. the video editor, imo, was total toss...usually fc'd when editing 720p vids and took too long to do anything..gs2 is much better..

Unfortunately only a few apps support the FFC. I suggest MagicHour and Pudding Camera when they get the aspect ratio fixed
It's in korean but its easy to navigate
Hi,
Anyone use this app as main camera?
I am trying it but sometimes i get force closes and to take a photo it takes to long.
What do you think about this app?
Erm and why would u like to use it cam?? :S
I really like it. No FC at all, on both photo and video side (tested on CM7 and MIUI). Ok, it's not the best graphically, but it has a lot of options.
The only problem i do have is that vertical photos show up rotated left
I'm using it with no problems on 2.3.5 xxki3, great app, as you can turn off the stupid autofocus while video recording!
It's the only unofficial camera app I've found that supports 1080p video recording smoothly. AND it lets you set the audio bitrate in-app!
Hi,
I have bought this device 2 days ago and it is very good, but I have a problem when it comes to the camera, let me explain.
When i take a picture with the camera app, the "preview" of that photo in the screen looks very bad, but after taking the photo it processes it and takes a good photo.
The problem is that when I try to take an instagram stories video, the video slows very much and the fps drop in the video. Also when i'm taking a photo with an instagram filter, it looks like the "preview" of a photo in the stock camera app, and it really looks with so bad quality, like it is a 3 megapixel camera, that also happens to me in snapchat, the quality is very poor taking a photo, and it seems like it doesn't process the image.
I don't know it that will be fixed enabling camera2 api (but i want to keep my warranty) or it is a major bug with instagram and snapchat. (I have also thought it might be a bug witrh the 18:9 ratio, but idk). Help me.
Currently using Miui stock rom in version 9.5.19.0

Does anyone have a recommendation on a Gallery app that actually knows what to do with portrait mode pictures? Seems like Google Photos is the only one that knows how to properly categorize/show portrait pictures. Every other gallery app I have used shows every portrait picture and the non portrait picture as it's own album. Clutters up a gallery really quick.
Any suggestions?

I hope this isn't too much off topic but felt like it was worth mentioning. My favorite all time gallery app if one hasn't tried it is Sony's Album app. To me it is hands down the best app when dealing with a lot of photos. There is a universal port here on XDA if anyone is interested, thank you.
just curious - if google photos works, why use anything else?
Sony Album app was always great and has been ported to work on pretty much any android phone

How does it handle pictures taken in portrait mode? Every other gallery app I've used creates a whole album for every portrait picture taken? So far I've only found Google Photos to handle portrait shots correctly.

I think there's an issue with the stabilisation on your camera! may be clear data/cache on the camera app? if it's the same, I recommend you to take the phone for a check

Like i say, others camera apps works just fine, even gcam with ois. cleared data & cache dont fix this problem for stock app
Heh, found some "bugs" for this.
If i have video options 1080p, 30fps/60fps, display is crooked and picture jumps upsidedown all the time.
If i set 4K, 30fps, crooked is gone but picture still jumps upsidedonw. Same as 4K, 60fps
If i set 4K, 120fps all is just fine, no crooked and no jumps
8K, 30fps trying jumps upsidedown but only move little and then came normal
Crap video, but i think point is there:
