I have recently bought a Micromax Canvas A1 and I'm really disappointed with the stock camera. There is no option for white balance, auto & macro focusing or scenes like sepia, negative etc. Also quality of images captured by it is very poor in comparison with other phones with same 5M camera. So I'd like to know-
what camera app, if any, you are using
what are you doing to get better quality image
Please share your experience guys.

Yep, Camera 360 is the best
miui camera if you dont need fancy effects
Camera360 is a great choice.
I have used pretty much all of them and have finally stuck with vignette as it produces slightly better low light images than the rest IMO.

I'm not that completely bothered about effects, I just want an app that is better than stock, does anyone know of one?
Thanks.

Ucam is my favorite, I've been using it for months and pro version is awesome! :beer:

Ucam has lot of options, it's a really underrated app...
By the way I don't think there is an app which will give you better quality results than the stock one.
You just have to compare the image quality of the preview (i mean before taking a photo/video) of the stock camera with any other thirdy app. Except the stock one, all of them are showing some kind of granulated image

Try Camera FX.. it is very good! 31x zoom
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I've tried them all, but none of then have a touch-to-focus. I have seen one called Camera FV-5, which is more professional, but I'm wondering if anyone here would be so kind to test it to see if it's worth the price tag.
Thank you.

Procapture gives you the capability to shot with volume rocker (only pro version)
And another good app is fast burst camera

Better stick with the stock camera. It's the best afaik.

I'm using it right now and you get so many options! Totally worth it, i've wasted so much money trying out good camera apps and the best ones are HDR Camera+, Afterfocus and Camera FV-5 being the best one.

I've settled on this one. I'm no professional but this should have been the stock app in my opinion.

Try Vignette , it have few nice Features
Try LG Camera I've always found that one pretty good
JB stock camera
Question always should be:
What types of images do you want to take. For just party-shots you wont need a paid app...
Try using camera zoom FX. it has touch to focus and pinch to zoom. I am using it on my 4.1.1 ROM
Sent from my GT-I9100G using xda app-developers app
Try Camera360, it free with many effect and custom
+1 for LGCamera (lot of options, fix for bad chip recording for S2) and default JB stock camera (nice GUI and features)...
I find the Jelly Bean stock camera to be excellent, as if you fix the focus it captures pretty much instantly.

vignette is just amazing, lots of features and photos looks a lot better when snapped from it.

Okay so I started using the stock ROM but then I moved over to cyanogen for a little while only to find out that the camera in cyanogen was really bad so I move back to stock and I'm not saying I regret the decision but I really would love to go back to cyanogen so I was wondering if anyone might know of a camera app that is comparable to the stock app for this device any help would be appreciated!

I'm using Focal (Beta) at the moment and i realy like it
It's buggy but hey that's ok its just a beta.
This app is gonna be great when it's released !!
Just my opinion.

yes I was using focal but i cannot have a buggy camera. im a photographer and I use my phone a lot for scouting for shoots rather than carrying around my main gear. need something that will replace the cm10 sh*t camera with good features and functionality as the stock camera on the s4.
ProCapture!
There's an .apk for the Google Edition camera over in the Themes/Apps section. I use it alongside the stock camera and it's every bit as good I think.

I disagree with the assessment that AOSP camera is sh*t. Kudos to the developers - it's pretty fast and very, very usable, and the swipe to gallery is great (haven't seen that in any other party camera app). I'm picky about the camera.
That said, if you're set to find a 3rd party camera, then look at Camera FV-5.
Compared to all the other apps listed on this thread, it's superior with basic camera features missing in the other apps, such as focus mode, manual ISO, exposure compensation, exposure bracketing, grid layovers, etc. No gimmicky filters or effects like the others listed here. It makes a decent 'manual' camera out of the limited capability that the phone comes to begin with. It shows the 'life' shutter speed. Its auto ISO has a bias to go higher ISO than AOSP camera - up to 2000, so it may guard against shake but at the expense of grainier pics in the darker settings, but these phones aren't meant for that anyway. ProCapture is the closest to FV-5, but not as good for manual settings (i.e., after you set the exposure compensation on ProCapture, you won't see the value explicitly shown, so that could trip you). The one thing about FV-5 is it has a tad slower startup than the stock AOSP camera.
Updating my recommendation to either "A Better Camera" or Lenovo Super Camera.
I've noticed that the camera quality of the Ion has a LOT of noise - it's nowhere near as good as my 8MP LG G2X.
Can anyone please point me towards a fix for all the noise in this camera?
Thanks!
there is no noise fix for these old xperia cameras, the xperia NXT cameras are failours of cameras and i have never seen any such fix
i do recommend using some camera mods as some do lower the amount of noise

Seems that the camera quality on stock is vastly Superior to any of the custom Roms, i.e. the 4.4.4 which are faster and are better in any regard except the camera.
Is there any way to improve the quality, like flash the stock camera?
