Default Camera App (Poor Quality)

Now first thing I can say I very happy with my Droid X but I was wondering if anyone noticed that the X camera seems to be a little erratic at times, I can take 3 pictures of same image, same place, same time and image never even looks close to other ones and none of them are very clear (Usually Dark).  Images are clear in viewer when shot is taken but shot always process image either too light or too dark.. Camera seems to only take decent photos in day light which is very strange, my Imagio appears to take clearer pictures than the Droid X does.. I have took photo with Imagio and X of the same image at same time and Imagio is clearer no doubt.
I am trying to figure out what can be wrong or is this just the way things is, please give any suggestions because I use my Imagio camera a lot and photos where rather clear but X photos are not making the grade, I was wondering if there is a camera app that does better than stock one because I tried a free app and the photos came out better but still not close to clear inside a building.
Any Seggestions Appreciated...

    Basic troubleshooting steps right out of the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  If you've been through ALL the steps and you still have the problem, then you'll need to bring your phone to Apple for evaluation.

  • HT5467 Why is my default camera app not appearing in the location list?

    Any photo taken by the native camera app in ios6 (after a restore from ios5.1 to ios6) no longer includes gpsinfo. The default camera never asked for permission, nor is it found in the location data list under privacy settings. Even resetting the privacy and location settings did not fix it.
    iPhone 4S. iOS6.0. Clean install.
    Anybody else with this same problem?

    I just solved my problem!
    Since installing iOS6 I immediately installed and started to use a third-party camera app for most photos. Occasionally I would use the default camera app for photos - but only through the lock screen.
    So, it turns out that you need to open the default camera app through the icon at least once. This brings up the request to use location services, and also adds the Camera App to the Location Services list. Solved.
    For some reason, using the camera through the lock screen does not trigger this request for location services, and every photo taken is naturally taken without any gpsinfo included.
    A simple answer to what seemed like a complex problem. Glad to find the solution though. Hope this helps others.

  • HT201272 Default camera app missing

    Default camera app missing

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Camera being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • IPhone 4 'Searching...' / 'No Signal' + default Camera app freezing/pixelated

    Hey everyone!
    I recently (26th August) had my iPhone replaced by Apple due to water damage, when I got the new iPhone home everything was fine for around an hour until the signal dropped of and just displayed 'Searching...' or 'No Signal'
    I assumed it may have been the sim as that was also slightly damaged, so I ordered a new sim from O2 and had it activated when it arrived, this didn't work, the phone still displayed the same messages and O2 said it may have been a bad sim card so they sent another one...same problem when that arrived also, by now I was getting angry with O2 as I had been without network service for almost a week(now over a week)
    I restored the phone and chose to set up as a new iPhone, to see if that changed anything, it didn't so I restored back to my backup.
    Today (5th Sep) I was due to go to an Apple Genius Bar appointment about the phone so in the hope that they would again replace the iPhone, I restored it to as new so none of my details were on the device, when the restore was finished the network suddenly started to work again and I started to receive 3 weeks worth of text's.
    All seemed to be working fine, so I decided to log in and cancel the genius appointment, but now, almost exactly as when I first got the replacement, the signal has again dropped off and is now displaying the same 'Searching...' / 'No Signal messages.
    Have I been given a duff replacement or is this some kind of software problem?
    My other problem with the camera...
    I was at the Paralympics on Sunday (2nd Sep) and wanted to take photo's and videos with the new replacement iPhone, I had had no problems with the camera up until that day, but for some reason the default camera app suddenly kept freezing after every photo I took, displayed all the photos as pixelated and was crashing all the time so it was pretty much unusable.
    What could be the problem?
    Many thanks, Dan!

    Hi Patrick.mc,
    Did you end up fixing this issue? I had  IOS7.0.4 and first encountered this problem yesterday (TPG Australia) and it's really frustrating. Backed up the phone, erased/reset the phone and it went away (although the "cellular settings" now read "mobile settings") at Apple Genius Bar. They also replaced the battery and in the process, realized there were other problem with the phone so they gave me a new one as it is still under warranty. However, I then updated the software of the new phone to IOS7.1.1 and restored it from my backup. THE PROBLEM CAME BACK! ON THE NEW PHONE! The cellular settings is now mobile settings. Signal keeps dropping out and can never open the cellular settings. It just keeps crashing to Springboard.
    I ended up resetting the new phone, and just do a partial restore (manually transfer the photos back to the phone etc) and reinstalling apps back manually. Lost all other minor stuff. Let me know if anyone out there is encountering this.

  • Default Camera App Tile Missing and Won't Launch from c:\windows\camera. Also missing from Windows Store to reinstall.

    Hi There,
    I am deploying a custom windows 8.1 enterprise image via SCCM to Surface Tablets in our corporate environment.  We currently are using windows 8 ONLY on surface hardware.
    We only have 4 in the wild but all are having the same issue.  The camera app tile/shortcut is missing from the all applications menu.
    If I try to launch it from the c:\windows\camera folder i receive an error regarding Windows.UI.Xaml.dll as I believe it needs to be  called via the modern environment (not desktop).
    It dose not appear to be a hardware issue as third party camera apps seem to work.
    Also, when i search for the app in windows store it cannot be found.  I can find it when i search the store via IE but when I click on the link to open it in the windows store i am only presented with the stores front page.
    Any advice would be appreciated as my users are keen to use the camera on their surface pro 3's.
    Thanks

    This sounds as though the Camera app has become corrupt in your image. I would attempt to reimage one of the devices with a vanilla environment to see if the issue appears, if not, I would
    evaluate the difference between the Camera app in the vanilla environment and the production environment. Specifically, you may need to ensure that the correct version of Camera is provisioned in the base image.

  • Why is the camera such poor quality to take still pictures.

    I have been trying other a
    Apps to see if the quality of the still shots can get better.
    No such luck. It just looks like a grainy picture.
    Is there anything that can make this take good still pictures?
    Especially for the price you pay for one of these things?

    Yes I must admit the camera on the Iphone is very good.
    Yes the Ipad is well bait big to hold in the palm of your hand so to speak.
    But it would be nice to be able to take a quick snap if a picture becomes apparent.
    It would have been nice to have the Iphone camera in the Ipad2.
    Oh well just have to be disappointed about this feature.
    Question to any one. Is there an app that allows you to take a picture from a movie you made on the Ipad2 at all?
    As the camera picture is clear enough for me when I pause it.
    Thanks

  • N95 camera is poor quality

    Hi all
    I've just recently downloaded new software onto my N95 and have discovered that the camera quality is no where near as good as the previous software.
    Has anyone else noticed this.
    My pictures before i did the download were superb quality, but now i get a fuzzy or blurred pictures and they are really poor.
    Thank you

    Ok grschinon if i want to take a good picture,what things to keep in mind
    Errm.. OK. Thing is, I'm not a photographer either but I do know more or less how to use a digital camera. I also worked for 5 years in a professional photographic lab so I guess that helps a little.
    The biggest problem with photos is the lighting and sometimes misuse of the flash.
    If you're photographing someone's portrait but there's a window behind them, then all you're going to see is a lovely photo of the window with a person-shaped black splodge in the middle of it. Why? Because the camera accounts for the bright light of the window, considers that the global scene is bright and consequently lowers exposure, thus blacking out the actual subject of the photo. Solution? Photograph the person elsewhere or, if that's not possible, force the flash to go off. This will have the effect of lighting the subject and balancing out the brightness level in the composition.
    Conversely, if you're outside, for example, and the lighting isn't too good, only use the flash as a last resort. Why? Because it isn't powerful enough to illuminate your whole back yard, the camera knows it let off the flash and compensates for it, and you end up with a black photo with a few red eyes dotted around it. Solution? Turn the flash off altogether, set the camera to night mode and, optionally, adjust the exposure manually up an f-stop or two (yes, you can do this on the N95's camera).
    Avoid using the flash on close-ups and prefer natural light. Why? Because the flash light is too intense and it'll drown out any detail of the subject of the photo, particularly if its surface is reflective.
    Also bear in mind that you can adjust the sensitivity of the camera, just like you'd put 50 or 100 ISO or 1600 ISO film in a traditional camera. Lower sensitivity means it can deal with much more light coming in, so it's great for sunny scenes out side, while higher sensitivity means that it knows it has to work with less light so it's suited ideally to evenings and indoor shots in poor lighting conditions. High sensitivity is also good for taking blur-free shots of objects in motion in good lighting conditions because the camera, which is extremely sensitive on this setting, compensates for the large amounts of light by shortening the exposure time.
    Colour balance is another problem. You may not know it because your brain compensates for it automatically, but neon lighting is green and regular incandescent light is yellow. This affects the colour of objects photographed quite dramatically to the point where you can even buy special reversal film from professionnal labs that has a blue mask on it to compensate for the yellowness of a tungsten flash. One of the functions of a digital camera is the "white balance" function whereby you point the camera at an object which is white even if the lighting makes it look different, and the camera then adjusts the photos taken according to what the white object actually looked like.
    Those are the main points I can think of right now. Others should feel free to add to this thread if they have more suggestions.

  • MPEG2 imported from Sonny HDD camera yeilds poor quality. Is this normal?

    I'm still struggling with iMovie and my new Sonny HDD, DCR-S200. It records to an MPEG2 format. When I import video clips from the camera into iMovie and then view the results, the scenes seem to be missing frames. The playback is not smooth. As the scroll bar is jerky (brief pauses) when it travels over the frames it's playing. The movies are also not smooth, but jerky (brief pauses). The sound is fine.Is this the best I can expect? Is the problem with MPEG2 compatibility with iMovie?
    Any suggestions or advice?

    Your PowerPC G5 is at the very bottom end of machines capable of running iMovie.
    Have you tried rendering your project? Is the final shared project also poor? It should be fine, because in the process of rendering, it will go as slow as it needs to, but make every calculation.
    See this link for iLife System Requirements. iMovie needs minimum G5 with 1.9Ghz or faster

  • Change the default camera (for quick launch)

    I'm having some issues with the default Camera app.
    I find that Camera Zoom FX and others, are better, (snd respond better to the physical camera button).
    Is there a way to make pressing the camera button, launch a different camera app than the default ?!
    Thanks

    As I understand, the application need to support the quick launch option. My guess is that the developer for the camera application, need to specific this support for each model itself.

  • Xperia Z1 lag camera app

    I just upgrade my Z1 to lollipop with the latest firmware, but since the first lollipop relased, my default camera app started to get laggy when I move my phone. It doesn't happen in the older version of android, but it does in lollipop. I wonder if you guys have something in common and know how to fix it?

    Hi
    Try to clear the data.
    Settings > apps > all  > Camera > clear data.
    Remember, it's gonna reset every setting you did in your camera app
    If the above doesn't help you, kindly go for a software repair as it would help your phone to get free of glitches and lag and improve performance and user experience.
    Here's how. And do not forget to backup everything before performing a repair
    Update / Repair your phone via PC Companion
    Download PC Companion and install it. Do not connect your phone until you're asked to do so.
    Launch PC Companion > Start Support zone > Start Phone/ Tablet Software update > select Repair my Phone / Tablet > Follow the on-screen instructions it shows.

  • No pause on camera app (when Samsung has one)

    The default camera app on my Z1 has no pause function, only start/stop. Reading up on this, I find many people asking about the same thing, but everyone seems to conclude simply that Android does not support a pause feature.
    However, my previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S2, and the default camera app did have such a function. So what's the deal?

    Hi, been trying to think back to my old Z1 (i currently have the Z2) .......so not sure if they are the same but if you click on the MANUAL in Camera Apps, bottom near left is the small camera icon, press it to video & when you press to record the pause button is there......tho on the 4K mode it is not.......apologies if this is different than your Z1 

  • IPhone 5 flash on camera stopped working when taking photos & poor quality photos

    iPhone 5 camera flash  stopped  working when taking  photos and poor Quality photos . Flash still works when in torch mode .

    Hey there Jimbo,
    It sounds like your flash has stopped working on your phone and you noticed a decrease in image quality.
    I recommend a few troubleshooting steps here. Start with closing the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the phone and test it again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
