Rogers no pics during video.....

I just noticed this now because I wanted to use the feature but my Rogers SGS3 can't take pics during video. The buttons not even there. I thought we were supposed to have that feature. Anybody else have that? Fix?

I thought that while recording video all you had to do was touch the screen to take pics?
That just causes it to refocus on that area.

Are you sure? I don't think you can manually focus during video recording. Taping the screen during recording looks like it is refocusing the camera but that is in fact the animation it makes when it is snapping a still during recording. No sound, no sliding to the side animation like when taking photos. Just that slight focusing effect to let you know you it worked.
Check your gallary.
Not working, tried that. Just refocusing the video. You can see a button on the bottom right that says AF to establish AF again. No pictures in the gallery.

I am on rogers and can take pictures during video.
when making a video all you do is press the little camera icon beside the red record button
I noticed that it says nexus so iam guess your not on stock rogers?
I'm with rogers using a custom rom and that feature is there

That is odd. Sorry I was of no help. Not sure what the issue is and unfortunately I'm not on a stock rom so I cant dig thru the cam/settings to be of any help.
Can someone who is on a stock rom that is able to take stills while recording post a screen grab of their cam app to show what its supposed to look like?

I've seen pictures of what it supposed to look like. Just was hoping maybe there was an option I missed. Very frustrating.....
If you have anti shake turned on then the option to take pictures while video recording is not there. Simply turn off anti shake

Camera settings

I'm posting this here because I don't think its a rom specific question. If I'm recording something and turn my phone sideways and then watch the recorded video, I notice the video its self turns sideways at the point I turned the phone sideways. It there anyway to change a setting or perhaps a app that will stop that from happening?

Weird I had to actually shoot some video to get what your saying. From what I gather that program locks keeps the angle of the video when you start it. Camera ICS+ does the same thing. I not sure if there is a fix. I will try a couple of others programs and reply back.

Stock AT&T GS3 camera video "twitching"? (Resolved)

I can't seem to upload the video, pics only it seems, but it looks like its shifting left and right quickly while the video remains smooth. Like the player is going nuts or something.

It happens on mine only when the antishake is ENABLED. It's driving me crazy.

I talked to Samsung about it and they said it could be a software error and they want me to send it in for repairs. The shaking only happens when Anti-Shake is ON and it makes the video hard to watch, it kind of looks like a small earthquake.

Does anyone has problem with camera while using skype?

Whenever I video call someone on a laptop using his 2mp webcam, the video quality is so low though I have everything maximum. The reciever sees me bad and I see him bad although we both have a very good internet connection.
Might there be a problem with my front camera when video calling or is there something missing?
Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance.

Hangouts, 10.1, and front facing cam

Was trying to use hangouts for a video call and got a camera error and I noticed the cam app doesn't appear to have a front facing option. Is there a know issue with the front facing cam
I posted this same question on the known issues thread but felt I may have inappropriately posted there (sorry kenny). Sorry for the double post.

Just to update.. I found the front facing cam option on the camera app and it appears to work so I guess my issue appears hangout specific. Anyone try video chatting in hangouts with this phone on cm 10.1 (or anything)
