Is there an app that exist so I can hold the phone like a flip cam (vertical) but record in horizontal mode? Thanks

That would be hardware related (you'd still have black on the sides). However, on the software side, you could rotate the image. I know you can do this on Windows Live Movie Maker.:good:
yea I wish there was just a way to take the image vertically and convert it to horizontal on the camera. would make for a lot less vertical videos on the internet.

Yeah, would be a lot easier. There may be some Android movie making app which does what you want (at least after you take your clips). I'll let you know if I find anything.

I was testing out the FFC on my Telus Galaxy S II and when I take a picture with it, I see the animation and the picture go to the bottom left corner, and then the little preview of the picture becomes flipped. When I tap on the picture to view in the Gallery, the picture itself is mirrored.
Is anybody noticing this? Is there a setting to flip it back?
Thanks!
Lol. I noticed this also. It actually "corrects" the pick. I took a pic and the saved preview pick flipped. But I noticed I had writing in the background. It is fine in the flipped pic but in the main display it's backwards this the flip.

Not exactly sure how to fix this, if it's even possible to fix it. Haha.
I've noticed that every pic I take while holding the phone in portrait mode is sideways. I think Samsung intended for people to hold the phone sideways to take pics, which I find dumb.
That's really odd.. I wonder if there is some sort of photo software for the phone that can be used to flip them back?
You can rotate photos with the built in gallery app, if that's what you mean...

I know you can rotate them in the stock Gallery app, but I wonder if you can flip them on a horizontal axis, if you know what I mean. That way, an "inverted" photo could be flipped right side up.
It works ok, when it flips it corrects it, when using the front camera its like looking in the mirror, like your right hand looks like its ur left hand, but once you take the pic it flips it and fixes it

What are the best settings to make a photo of a close object?
For example I want to make a picture of my eye close-up but it always turns out blurry, what should I set the settings like?
Hello, i also tested some "macro" photos.
First make sure you are on "macro" mode.
You should have a flower on the left bottom of the screen.
Then, don't put your "target" too near of the phone lense.
There is a limit distance.
I think almost 5 or 6 centimeters ( 2 inches i think ) is the best you can achieve.
Nearer, the phone just won't make the focus and the image will stay blurry ...
Make sure you get the higher resolution, use 4:3 size, and crop the image after.
And do not use the zoom function or the flash !!! Use external light ...
The only "big" problem is to get the focus at short distance ...
And the fact there are no physical button to shoot is another problem
if you want to take your own eye ... other apps can make it simplier ( ShotControl for example ... ).

I have found this Macro feature on Vignette but I am absolutely lost on the stock Camera application on Sense.

Macro shooting can be found pressing the 'A' on the top left corner of the camera interface (portrait mode).

It's bottom left on mine ... ( Edit : Sorry it's in landscape mode ... ).
By default it's on A (Auto).

If when in camera mode you rotate the screen and the icons twist?, it means they are just positioned that way, giving the impression that the app has actually changed from landscape to portrait or vice versa but its always taking pictures right side up.

Correct but i think it may have to do with your screencap app. or just basic method to keep aspect ratio at its max regardless of device angle?
looking at the screen captured, although the notification bar is landscape, the writing is portrait(right side up according to ). if by some chance the camera app was made for landscape mode and having portrait as a rotation feature it still takes pictures right side up, even if taken from the 270 degree rotation of the screen. so my question is where is the camera problems? what besides your screencap of your camera app ready to take a picture showing a rotated notification bar. how about this? when you enter camera is phone rotated? and also what of this screencap app? who makes it?
Whenever I take video on the OP3, whether I'm holding it vertical or horizontal, the video plays back vertical on my TV. Is this normal? If not, how can I get it to show horizontally on the TV?
Do you have screen rotation locked to portrait? I'm not sure if that would make a difference, but it's worth a shot

I tried that and it didn't make any difference.
Hi
I have had phones with which I can shout photos by just tapping on the screen.
But this camera seems too limited, although photos are great.
I am afraid that if I use any other camera the postprocessing won't be so good and photos will be worse.
Any help to shoot easier with this, my new phone?
I'm confused. What do you mean by "just tapping on the screen"? The camera app has a big button on screen to trigger the shutter. Tapping anyplace else shifts the center of focus.

Go into the camera settings and there is an option to use the volume keys to trigger the shutter if that helps you

To each their own lol, but I would much rather have touch to focus than touch to shoot

It's compatible. For example:
Motorola: dragging the "circle" it focuses. Touching the screen, out of the circle, it shots.
Xiaomi: touching the screen, it focuses. Then, once focused, in the middle of the circle appears a camera which if it's touched, it shots.
