Photo blueish if flash is used - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

Hi anyone here have this blueish photo if camera flashed is used?If anybody knows how to fix this issue.

It's a white balance issue. LEDs are generally on the cool side. Either manual change the WB setting or post edit it to make it warmer. That's assuming there's no actual camera malfunction.
A picture(s) would help...

Camera settings?

Hi,
Anyone got any good camera settings they would like to share, my pictures look ok but not as good compared to my old Omnia and HD2.
Cheers.
I'm having trouble with my camera aswell :S.
Just recieved my phone, but there seems to be a lot of blue flickering lines in camera view, which remain visible on the photos themselves.
I even tried covering the actual camera completely to pitch black darkness and taking a photo, and there is still a lot of blue flickering lines showing on the display, and they are even more visible in the photo?!?
Please HELP! Does anyone know how to fix this? Anyone else experiencing anything similar?
Thanks for your help.

[Q] Why did HTC add yellowish camera LEDs?

Hey there,
some years after I sold my G1 I'm up with another Android phone, Desire HD.
Great phone, bad battery as usual...
But I really wonder why they put such yellowish LEDs to the phone. It's ok that the phone is equipped with LEDs but every picture I take with LEDs turned on looks yellowish. The pictures don't look like it would be "real" light, it looks worse than white light.
When you switch on the lights you can already see that it's yellowish.
Perhaps someone has an explanation...
Change the white balance settings, that sometimes helps.
Or you can correct it in an image editor like PicSay Pro (phone app) or Photoshop.
I also notice that (in the preview/viewfinder screen) it makes it look yellow.
But when taken the picture the preview on my stock-rom but updated phone is a normal color and not yellowish at all.
Check out hamdir's photography guide/tips. Scroll down to the flash section. A solution there works. Thread location:
Desire HD general-
Thank you! I set white balance to fluorescent (Neonlicht in German) and now the pictures made with LED flash look better.

Camera options

There's a couple of options in the camera app that aren't entirely self-explanatory. Anyone able to shed any light?
Anti-shake: The manual says, "reduces image blur due to the movement of the subject of the photo or hand movement." Any ideas why this is disabled by default? Are there any downsides to reducing shake?
Auto contrast: The manual says, "provides a clear image even under backlight circumstances where intensity of illumination can vary excessively." Does anyone have any idea what this is doing? Is this HDR?
Outdoor visibility: The manual says, "allows you to take better pictures when outdoors." Anyone know if this does anything besides just make the screen colors brighter?
Anyone have any ideas?
Anti-Shake is an option to use to help reduce the effects of the camera moving while shooting a picture. I see no downsides to enabling it unless you like blurry pictures. It might reduce battery life a tiny bit more while using the camera.
Think of it as mouse smoothing in games, if you do that sort of thing.
Auto contrast is a nice feature (if it works well) that adjusts the pictures light levels in case of a dark subject and a bright background, or vice versa. It should help to make a better overal balanced picture.
Outdoor visibility has to do with the LCD screen itself. If you are outside on a bright day you want that on. It makes sure the backlight is on full and the colors are bright so you can more easily see the screen.

[Q] touch to auto-exposure lock on stock camera?

anyone able to do this? I thought this was possible (many other forum post about it).
(what is this? open camera app. point at scene w some light and dark areas, touch bright area, camera should change exposure to suit that area (image may get darker), now touch a dark spot, image should get darker. if not, then touch to auto exposure lock isnt working for you either and you're missing out on a VERY powerful function that will help take great photos)
anyone know how to enable it? what settings are you using?
stock camera only
So no one else heard of this problem or have any input on this?
Really? I find it hard to believe no one ever notice this deficiency
That's one thing I miss from my mytouch 4g.. The regular pictures come out too dark on the background with the s3 without exposure and it doesn't even lock, unfortunately I haven't heard of anything for this either

Black lines in high contrast pics with HDR on in stock camera?

Hi, this question is actually about an AT&T V35, but since that phone doesn't have its own sub and it shares a camera module with the G7, I figured I'd ask here. I love most things about the camera and UI, but when I take pics of high contrast environments, I get really nasty colors and black lines on every other pixel. This does not happen at all without HDR on. Any solutions or ideas? Stock LG cam, version 7.0.132.25. Here's a pic as an example, one is zoomed out, the other is full crop. I know going to GCam solves this, but I prefer the zoom UI on the stock LG camera.
Edit: It is not PWM in light power supply, as this happens with fluorescent and incandescent light sources and the lines are very sharp. The lines also occur top to bottom of the phone, meaning they are horizontal in landscape orientation.
Sorry if a V35 post isn't allowed here, please remove if so.
