1080p video is zoomed in

I have noticed when I am in the video recorder and switch to 1920x1080 resolution I notice the video zooms in to around 2x and says "zooming is not allowed in full HD" when I try to zoom out. This causes the recorded video to look like crap and noticeably lower quality than the 720p videos I record, especially on a pc..
Does anyone know why this is, if anyone else is having the same problem and if there is any way to fix it?

I can confirm I see the same thing.

Same here!

I got some good results with my videos, but only when i wasn't trying to shoot something up close.

I am really disappointed 1080p was one of the big things I was looking forward to with the GS2 and now I find that it's a lower quality video than the 720p... Hopefully someone has a fix or this is an issue Samsung is working on.

Camera Bad Picture Quality in gallery

I hope someone has the same issue or that this is a "normal" behavior of the HOX, but I don't think I ever noticed that until 2 days ago; anyway here's the problem.
When I take a picture with my camera, the picture looks great during review time (the option you set in settings 3 or 5 seconds). But when I open the same picture in gallery it seems that the quality is lost. I can notice that since as soon as I review the picture, I click on the lower left corner to open the picture again and I can see the difference between the "review picture" and the "saved picture". This is especially apparent in the front camera: when I take a picture of myself, my eyes look very sharp/cartoonish.
I have been running ARHD for a while since 14.2 and I am on 18.1 now. I installed lyapota mod pack which included camera jb mod extrim. I thought it was because of the mod so I did a clean installation of the rom with full wipe and the same problem was there.
Please advise.
Thanks to whoever will help!

May be a different viewer is used(triggered) to view the saved photos.
And thus thus could be a viewer app problem, not the photo quality itself.
Did you try to open these photos on your PC to see how are they looking there?

Yes I did, unfortunately it's the same problem.

Could it be that the preview is smaller than the actual image, and that the quality therefore looks better, because the preview is smaller..?
Try to post a picture you have taken, to show what you mean.

Here is a picture showing both scenarios. I took a screenshot during the review (on the left) and then i opened the actual image. I put them side by side. Notice the color fading and the noise/loss of sharpness in the right picture. This is with normal day light, the effect gets worse when in low light.

Camera Problems [False Alarm] - Delete Please

Hi guys,
I recently bought an LG G4, received it yesterday and got the update to Marshmallow pretty fast.
Today I was experimenting with the camera and I have to say, the picture quality is gorgeous, the videos however are a different story. The 1080p clips are fine but when I record in 4k the framerate for some reason is very low (around 20fps) wich causes terrible videos.
I don't see any option in the camera settings to change the framerate of the video.
Can anyone help?
Thank you in advance,
MoraisGT
---------------------------------------------------------------
Edit: I am really sorry guys, it turns out that there is nothing wrong with the camera. Whenever I open a 4k video recorded with the G4 on my pc the framerate is indeed horrible, but if I skip the video forward a bit it becomes normal. There isn't a problem with the device, just the software on my pc.

Again I am really sorry

Glad to hear all is ok
Until a moderator will do that maybe you can just change the name of the topic to add something like [False Alarm, not a problem] or something similar Just my 2c

Video - bad quality, faces blurred. What's the problem?

I just noticed a huge problem with 1080p video from my Mi Max 3 (original rom 6/128). Faces are totally blurred and flattened, huge quality problems. It looks the same in the phone itself then playing back. Why??? I don't want to root it but still have to shoot 1080p30 with image stabilization. Are there alternatives for stock camera app that can do that and don't crap out like that?
This is the link to example video: https://photos.app.goo.gl/e7gSKxykBVtXL5pW9

That is strange, have you tried video elsewhere

All videos from yesterday are like this. I didn't try anything else. It was cold but not too cold. I don't see anything in the settings that could have resulted in this... Why are those blobs there instead of faces? Weird... Older videos seem fine, however there was a recent firmware update...

Photos from the same day at the same time are also like this! But other photos are fine... I'm starting to think it was some kind of condensation on the glass or temperature affecting sensor or something like that, although it wasn't that cold, maybe -8C. Other person shooting on iphone got fine photos and videos. Weird...

Banding / lines in video mode with LED light

Hi,
I recently noticed that when I'm taking a video in 30fps is showing some banding. It happens in all cameras, stock, gcam, also tried whatsapp video. Even if I'm not recording and I just look at the screen in video mode I can see those lines, but if it's on photo mode no lines. And it's only with LED lights, not with day light.
I uploaded a video on youtube to see the banding I'm talking about. I can't share the link here because I'm new user, so it's not letting me do it. Is there another way of sharing the video? I tried taking screenshots but it's very hard to appreciate it.
Thank you!

Change anti banding from camera settings to 50HZ or 60HZ based on your region...check NTSC and PAL regions on internet...if PAL region then use 50HZ if NTSC use 60HZ
