[Q] Camera Video Effects - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Did the camera video effects remove in 4.2?

yes, it's no longer in the video camera setting...
however, luckily, at least it's still with the gtalk...

I loved those effects. Hoping they come back bin a future release.

It appears that 4.0.3 has fixed the camera issues

You know how everyone is complaining about the camera, mainly because photos come out blurry/not sharp. The thing causing that was VERY slight movement when clicking the button to take the pic. It seemed to come out of focus very easily.
Now, with 4.0.3, I can get sharp pictures even with more movement. It's not so "touchy" anymore and stays in focus.
Anyone else notice?

If this is true, then it's awesome.

I hope it's true. There's more than one camera bug.
Im surprised how well it focuses in low light with out flash.

You know they could offer a shooting mode that used the phones sensors to detect camera (phone) movement and hold off the shutter until motion is minimized to improve sharpness. You might want a mode that does this but other modes, like sports, that don't delay the shutter.

Good to hear, what about the white haze when near a window. Now, can anyone recommend a 4.0.3 ROM without any visual mods?

The one I'm using looks like stock, besides the hideous boot animation.

You can change the boot animation yourself. Here's a link to a 720p version of the default ICS animation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380655&highlight=animation
EDIT: I've found the 720p version of the original Galaxy Nexus boot animation lags a bit, so if you're not happy with that one here's a link to a compilation of boot animations: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364044&highlight=nexus+s+boot+animation
My personal favourite so far is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764
wish google would add an option for the instant shutter or delayed snap after autofocus. 90% of the bad pictures are taken because the person did not either tap to focus or held down the camera button for it to focus
Same goes with panos, I wish they gave you an option for auto panning versus the snap then move, like sgs2 did
Switched to redemption a 4.0.3 ROM and now pics are a lot better. Very impressed.

Why has no one posted a photo yet? Show us some of that 4.0.3 camera goodness!

GNex Feature

Would love to see the HTC One X camera feature somehow implemented in our Gnex, the ability to take a picture while recording a video. Seems pretty cool!
We've always had that. Tap your previously taken picture while recording and it'll take another.

Actually don't you tap the "LiveView" while recording to take a still?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
This feature has been there since ICS on the GNex. Tap the screen while recording video and it takes a still.
Ye this was actually on the GN first just tab the screen while recording and you are done.
Works much better on the one x and s3 though. I.e. no stutter like I get with my nexus.

That's because the Hardware on those phone are a little better.
I've never had any lag issues. I just touch the screen while recording and BAM! Still photo taken. No lag or stutter at all. Paranoid Android JB...

[Q] [Camera] Focus Control?

Hey guys & girls..
I've got a question for you ^^
Is there an app/mod/ROM where I have (better) control over the auto focus while recording?
Sometimes the camera focuses even though the "picture" is sharp, which is annoying sometimes..
So I thought maybe there's something that gives me better control over the focus..
And don't forget, I'm talking about making videos, not pictures..
There are a few apps, which give more controls, but they seem to be picture related..
Maybe someone can recommend an app or something :/
Thanks in advance

[Q] No real hdr in CM10.1?

Hey guy's
I was wondering why the HDR fuction in CM10.1 is not working like in the stock camera app? Right now it only take 3 separate pictures instead on only one.
Will it be implemented in the future or is there any limitation?
They added it but it just doesn't work properly for now. They'll fix it soon I'm sure.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Yeah I really hope they get it fixed. Right now the function is pretty much useless as your picture end up being blurry...

Better Camera App

Hey I'm currently using slim bean 4.2.2 build 8. I'm looking for a better camera app on my phone because the one that comes with the ROM is very buggy. Does anybody have an app that still has the stock Google 4.2.2 look and feel that is fully working?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
I've used this one on my phone.
Don't know which camera comes with slimbean though.

Have you tried the 4.3 stock camera?
What's wrong with the camera? Not buggy for me. I like LG Camera from the play store
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Snap Camera from the play store works well and has the 4.3 interface
I like the 4.3 stock camera, it gives you the photo sphere option. Other than that, a camera is a camera to me.
How about camera zoom fx... havent tried that, but heard about its reviews....

Snap Camera is by far the best. Ive tried them all.

I also vouch for Snap Camera. It's like stock but with added features and simplicity.
Have to agree with ya'll, Snap Camera is pretty awesome.

Okay, I'm going to be honest here...
Normally I ignore app recommendations from this site because sometimes they're just god-awful... but lgcamera is pretty amazing. It's got plenty of advanced features for serious photographers that left their SLR at home and stumble across a perfect photo opp.
Extremely fine ISO control, plenty of resolution choices, AND the ability to set volume up as focus, and volume down as capture.
Overall, with my small snap on telephoto lens for proper zooming and a touch of manual focus, this app has restored my faith in non-SLR cameras for hobby shots. Best free camera app there is, even if the interface is hideous.

Never tried snap camera but I have a copy of the Google photo sphere (awesome features) camera, this seems to give me much better stills and video compared to the gs3 stock camera. Pm me if you want it I'll forward it to you.

Can I install the 4.3 stock camera in 4.1?
Sorry I'm noop
Has anybody in their search for a good camera alternative ever run across one that has anything like the drama mode on the S4? I would love to have that. Thanks for any ideas you can provide.

Slightly off topic, I was playing around with the Touchwiz version of the camera for the i747M and it has the anti-shake feature that can be toggled on and off. Is that a HW or a SW based feature?
I like the Touchwiz customizations in some sense but the low DPI hurts my eyes
snap camera win here.
I use CameraJB+ and absolutely love it I used CameraICS+ on my Infuse 4G before this and it took better video and pics than the stock camera......
+1 for camera jb+
