Better Camera App - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey I'm currently using slim bean 4.2.2 build 8. I'm looking for a better camera app on my phone because the one that comes with the ROM is very buggy. Does anybody have an app that still has the stock Google 4.2.2 look and feel that is fully working?

I've used this one on my phone.
Don't know which camera comes with slimbean though.

Have you tried the 4.3 stock camera?

What's wrong with the camera? Not buggy for me. I like LG Camera from the play store

Snap Camera from the play store works well and has the 4.3 interface

I like the 4.3 stock camera, it gives you the photo sphere option. Other than that, a camera is a camera to me.

How about camera zoom fx... havent tried that, but heard about its reviews....

Snap Camera is by far the best. Ive tried them all.

I also vouch for Snap Camera. It's like stock but with added features and simplicity.

Have to agree with ya'll, Snap Camera is pretty awesome.

Okay, I'm going to be honest here...
Normally I ignore app recommendations from this site because sometimes they're just god-awful... but lgcamera is pretty amazing. It's got plenty of advanced features for serious photographers that left their SLR at home and stumble across a perfect photo opp.
Extremely fine ISO control, plenty of resolution choices, AND the ability to set volume up as focus, and volume down as capture.
Overall, with my small snap on telephoto lens for proper zooming and a touch of manual focus, this app has restored my faith in non-SLR cameras for hobby shots. Best free camera app there is, even if the interface is hideous.

Never tried snap camera but I have a copy of the Google photo sphere (awesome features) camera, this seems to give me much better stills and video compared to the gs3 stock camera. Pm me if you want it I'll forward it to you.

Can I install the 4.3 stock camera in 4.1?
Sorry I'm noop

Has anybody in their search for a good camera alternative ever run across one that has anything like the drama mode on the S4? I would love to have that. Thanks for any ideas you can provide.

Slightly off topic, I was playing around with the Touchwiz version of the camera for the i747M and it has the anti-shake feature that can be toggled on and off. Is that a HW or a SW based feature?
I like the Touchwiz customizations in some sense but the low DPI hurts my eyes

snap camera win here.

I use CameraJB+ and absolutely love it I used CameraICS+ on my Infuse 4G before this and it took better video and pics than the stock camera......

+1 for camera jb+

It appears that 4.0.3 has fixed the camera issues

You know how everyone is complaining about the camera, mainly because photos come out blurry/not sharp. The thing causing that was VERY slight movement when clicking the button to take the pic. It seemed to come out of focus very easily.
Now, with 4.0.3, I can get sharp pictures even with more movement. It's not so "touchy" anymore and stays in focus.
Anyone else notice?

I hope it's true. There's more than one camera bug.
Im surprised how well it focuses in low light with out flash.

You know they could offer a shooting mode that used the phones sensors to detect camera (phone) movement and hold off the shutter until motion is minimized to improve sharpness. You might want a mode that does this but other modes, like sports, that don't delay the shutter.

Good to hear, what about the white haze when near a window. Now, can anyone recommend a 4.0.3 ROM without any visual mods?

You can change the boot animation yourself. Here's a link to a 720p version of the default ICS animation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1380655&highlight=animation
EDIT: I've found the 720p version of the original Galaxy Nexus boot animation lags a bit, so if you're not happy with that one here's a link to a compilation of boot animations: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364044&highlight=nexus+s+boot+animation
My personal favourite so far is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402764
wish google would add an option for the instant shutter or delayed snap after autofocus. 90% of the bad pictures are taken because the person did not either tap to focus or held down the camera button for it to focus
Same goes with panos, I wish they gave you an option for auto panning versus the snap then move, like sgs2 did
Switched to redemption a 4.0.3 ROM and now pics are a lot better. Very impressed.

Why has no one posted a photo yet? Show us some of that 4.0.3 camera goodness!

Using the camera while on the phone hack?

Is it possible for you to be able to use the camera while on the phone. Is there a hack for that?

very interesting...
only the STOCK Samsung camera App will give you that message
but if you use any of the Market camera Apps like FX camera or paper camera, vinegar camera, or any other camera they all works even during a phone call

That's hardware dependent. The camera hardware is greatly improved in the s3

So that still not available to flash on S2 stock?
I saw custom roms which does have that camera app like on Darkside Evolution 2 by TDJ.
thanks in advance
You can get Photaf app for panorama, and Camera 360 for HDR and other effects.

bump.
the biggest reason the S3 camera is so fast is AI Servo AF. ie full time real time auto focus. that is where most of your lag is so the S2 should also benefit from this (its the exact same camera IIRC) now it might not be able to dump a crap ton of pics as fast as you can press the button like the S3 can but it should be able to get that first shot instant like the S3 can.

photo sphere lagging while shooting

Hi guys
I'm recently so crazy with photo sphere . But that's a problem . Start I'm using the photo sphere I could do my own rotation 360。 degree and the photo Sphere camera still could catch my speed and capture it perfectly. So I could compete the whole image in one minute. Then after now it was lagging and show. One single angle image took a second to process and lagging to next angle image. Anyone know how to fix it ? I try to restart and kill all background clear ram and turn off battery saving but still same... what's the latest version for it ?:crying:
Would clearing the cache help? Did you try to uninstall it then reinstall it.
Our phones weren't suppose to have photosphere. How did you accomplish that?

4.3 Update Made Camera Better?

Has anyone else noticed a huge update in quality for their images using the stock camera after the 4.3 update?
I've been seeing some ridiculous improvements especially in HDR and low light photos.

If you were using a custom rom such as CM, know that the exposure setting was broken, so HDR was technically not HDR and you couldn't get more information from changing the exposure.
