Not at all
At least not on my T3
Pictures came out to be very good
Maybe you've got a faulty unit, try reporting Sony service center

The bad image quality in SP is solved. It was because of a lens coat sony puts on it. Coat cleaned = images ok

Just got myself an Xperia T2 ultra lte single sim. Noticed that upon switching the front camera, it's very grainy. Updated to kitkat4.4.2 and it's till the same. Read some comments is GSMarena that mentions the same. Anyone has the same issue?

Same bro all of T2 Ultra user also got the same problem and yet sony staff says that theirs fine
Better head to sony support forum and post about it to..
So they'll hurry the update
Also the battery life is descreasing a bit and the rear camera also becomes grainy after 4.4.2 too
Pretty dissapointing

I think the problem is that sony camera app uses always a too high ISO value.
Higher ISO means less shooting time (good in darkness or with fast objects) but significantly increase the noise.
There are a few camera apps good to fix that with manual iso settings.
Also you may set jpeg quality to 100%. Some camera apps also allow that setting.

yup man
same with me
4.4.3 improved a bit but not big difference so better post that one at sony forum to so they'll fix it at 4.4.4 maybe or additional update
So it is a software problem or the quality of the camera itself?
Anyway, both 13MP rear camera and 1.1MP front facing camera result using camera or camera360 apps is bad and very difficult to create the good one, especially in the low light situation. Anyone can give any suggestion how to make it at least better?
Thx
I have a problem with back facing camera on my xperia ZL. The problem is with colors. I do not know what to do with it. There are some screen shoots so that you can see where is the problem. I hope so that we can find some fix for it.
There are two samples:
On the left site is real color reproduction and on the right site is pic taken by my Xperia ZL

its a hardware problem with camera, i think that any soft methods cant to help you
Only service
Hi peeps,
I am not sure about you guys, but I am very happy abt Z3 camera and its features, I came from Z1 and the camera is good too!
I notice some did mention or some of my friends saying Sony camera suck and that the Z3 camera is not as good as samsung s3 or other brands bah bah bah....
But I asked, what Sony phones are you conparing with and what are the camera or display settings of the Z3 phones. Then I reliased the following issues
1) Some are using Xperia Z ultra to compare with Samsung S3. Z ultra only have 8 MP and no ISO settings so if u want to use a mid range camera to fight with a higher range phone who will lose out? Just like I used a 20MP Z3 with the same setting I will surely win...
He also mention the Z ultra camera pic cannot tell the color difference between white and yellowish white but when I took the same pic, with my Z3, he was shocked....
2) Z3 camera by default has set to 8/15 MP for 16:9. So the pic is not the best yet. You need to change the settings....
3) Off the HDR & Display Enhencment settings, u will see a better quality photo on screen and on PC...
4) If you are using matt, anti finger print or privacy screen protectors, please dont even bother to complain abt the screen quality.... You are using a few dollar to cover up 100 dollar stuff...
5) Only a few case is factory defects which need u to send out for repairs... Nothing is perfect just that u are the few unlucky ones to get a defected product...
Oh man, please check where are posting, this forum about Sony smartWATCH 3, not about xperia z3.
and as a z3 owner (and z ultra by chance) I dont even know where to start with the actual content..

You are off topic here, should move to z3 board. This is a general problem we've heard many times on net. From my personal experiences, the answer is mixed. Overall, I would say Sony camera sometimes can be very good but in some situation it can be very bad. On the other hand, Samsung, HTC the camera performance is more consistent and most people prefer a stable camera(so most guys said iphone camera the best).
Sony camera generally poor on focus in my degrees of view while the quality can be very good when it can manage to get the focus right which is very annoy for most guys. Plus the Sony camera always compressed the image too much, in some photo when the object/environment is hard to compress, it will just lost the fight for Samsung which is a very clear answer.
hey guys !
My friend just bought an m5 a couple of weeks ago and he's experiencing a strange thing with the camera. The front camera is working just fine ,but the back camera is taking blurred pictures. When he focuses on something everything is sharp and good right until pic is taken and processed, the results are blurry pictures . Sometimes the camera takes normal sharp pics but the majority of the times its blurred ones, so I'm asking you guys : is it a common thing among all m5 devices or am I missing something in the camera setting ? could it be a software problem or is it more likely to be a hardware defect ?
I'd really like to have your opinions on this as I was the one to convince him to get a Sony device instead of a Samsung even though I'm a note user myself. The device is not rooted , running the latest stock Android Lollipop 5.1 .
Thanks in advance !

I find that the rear camera cannot focus beyond about 10m.
To take the best possible shot focus on something about 1m away in full daylight, if still bad, then definitely a problem.

I am observing the same thing with my Xperia M5 Dual- OK with close up shots only.
Does everyone think this is normal? Or should I be worried that I'd miss capturing important moments?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I use Snap camera to avoid such things.
I had a similar problem. In my case the problem was that the hybrid autofocus did not work and only one of the two autofocus methods was working. The result was that roughly half of the times pictures were out of focus (randomly). I solved the problem sending the device to repair. They changed the camera and now everything is working fine. I think this is a quite common problem, since I read many posts reporting a similar problem. By the way: in my case using for instance camera fv5 resulted in good pictures all the time, since this software is capable of using only the working part of the hybrid autofocus. The problem was that focusing was very slow.
Can anyone confirm if the hybrid autofocus problem exists on M5 from 2016 (5.1 Lollipop or it happens just on 6.0.1)? If not sure about year, there is a sticker under SIM slot, use a needle or something similar to pull it. It should be 16WXX (XX is week the phone was manufactured).
Dear Developers, I experience the same main camera problem. The images are vague after 2 meters. I used fv5 app. But, still same quality. In fv5 app, the maximum resolution shows 3.1Mp(2048*1536). But, front cam shows good images and the back one very poor.*
What should I do..? I bought this new M5dual from Amazon yesterday.
Hi developers,
I've been checking Xperia Z5 review and it said the camera module is the same that we have in the XA2.
Now, looking at photos taken with Z5 I have strong impression that the blur (optics imperfection...) at the edges of the photos is much smaller in Z5 taken photos than with XA2 photos. I think it can be corrected to some degree, but It's not done in XA2.
Would it be possible to try Xperia Z5 camera app to see if the XA2 photos quality improved with it ? Does anybody know maybe ?

Just try Snap camera app

Well ,the thing is that I've tried already quite a lot of 3rd party apps, including Snap, and the result is similar each time - photos with A LOT of noise. Like the phone would not allow 3rd party apps to denoise photos.
Or maybe there is something special about Sony XA2 software that makes 3rd party apps unable to fully utilize its potential.

Snap camera should have a setting for denosing

Sure, it has - but it does so little change, that looks like almost no difference whether it's on or off.

I have my old Z5 Premium and my girlfriend has an XA2 I'll try some pics as I have the opportunity and give you the answer.
PS: My Z5 Premium has both the camera and the back cover replaced by myself with parts from internet. Both were Sony problems but phone was imported so I bypassed warranty for not loosing money and time. Still takes nice pictures. I had so many problems with that phone, lens stains, camera black spots, jack audio fail after a while, it bent...
RIP Z5p
Sorry seems that my Z5p is not working anymore.
During night my cat dropped a pitcher with some water on the table and my Z5p was there in a layer of thin water when I found it the next morning. Because of the broken back cover the water went in, there were drops coming from inside as I tried to press the cover with my thumbs.
Now seems dry but it only vibrates and doesn't boot. Waiting for more draining.

So sorry to hear this !
Anyway, in the meantime I got my camera module replaced under warranty at the Sony authorized service site, and now it takes much better pics, the blur is noticeable only where it can't be actually avoided (in the very distant edges of the photos)
But I have found a thread in the Sony support forum where users were discussing the blur that was a nightmare in Z5's photos. Seems like the problem was quite common. I feel like lucky winner now that I got a new, fully working camera module.
I hope your phone will wake up eventually, anyway :highfive:
