Xperia Arc S camera - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good Morning. I have 2 Xperia Arc S.
I have a problem on my camera
1ST ARC S:
- Camera's focus mode doesn't work. It doesn't focus on anything. They told me to clean it but moving the cam to this phone. The phone got an error saying Camera not available.
2ND ARC S:
- Camera's autofocus works but when I turn to normal mode then select Landscape and Night Scene the camera turns blurdish at any angle. When going to Infinity in Video nor Photo mode it turns all blurdish how do I fix this? Thanks.

Hi !
Do you have a recovery ? Try wiping cache. Or flash CyberShot Camera Mod that you can find under Themes and Apps section (only for stock ICS).
You can also try to use any other camera application from PlayStore. It should work.
For the Night Scene, it's normal as Arc S camera give quite bad results in low light conditions (it deals with its ISO levels).
You can just use it for a static scene after seconds of focusing.
Hope I helped.
Cheers.

[Q] Custom Camera Drivers for GB

I have Xperia ARC not ARC S. I like the Camera clarity of MIUI Rom in Day time, but at night it gives lot of dots in the photo. Stock Camera gives better photos in Night as it supports lots of Custom Presets.
Is there any application available for better camera clarity than stock?? Also it should support Macro Mode tooo

Xperia Arc LT15i Photography Setup.

As I'm big photography fan, I use my Xperia Arc to take photos. Photos are very live and colors are very vivid, but I have some problems with camera, I have focus problems while taking video, when I press cam button it wont focus that minute it needs some time, about 10 secs to re-focus, as for Auto focus as for Face Detection in any scene mode. In additon I'm looking for BURST mode, because I managed to take photos of lightnings with my C905 and this phone has very slow camera, I'd ask to improve the driver somehow. And anyone would edit camera driver so we could change the iso and other options it would be great. Please suggest anything , maybe application or something. Thanks in advance.!
You may use this app, it's just like BestPic..
Pick Pic Camera
Arc or any android phone doesn't have camdrivers like that of C905.. If manual controls were possible, we would have seen it by now.
Check out this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flavionet.android.camera.pro . It's paid, but you can adjust ISO, custom exposure, save in PNG and some more. Don't know if some options work, but I tried it with longer exposure (10 secs, under very bad light) and while I got a black photo with stock camera, this got me something a bit better. But there is a lot of color loss with custom exposure (the pics turn out pinkish on the places where there's light).

That doesnt mean that we can adjust iso on our arc.
Try fast burst camera. Looks promising

Which application did you use eventually and you are able to take better looking photos?
I use Camera360 Ultimate - quite often, it takes full resolution photo, not HD or Full HD that's one of the reasons I use it.
you can also use lgcamera (not LG related). there is a thread in the app section
^^ +1 to that! Though I use it mainly for some custom video bitrate settings

IMP: ISsue regarding Camera Focus mode.

Hello all (specially the developers),
i have a question regarding the camera of HOX. i had galaxy s2 before this phone. whenever i use its camera with flash on mode, its swithed on the Flash led during focus time and then it takes pics with flash ON again. ( this way subjects are focused properly even if is pitch dark in the room)
but in HOX, the flash led donot turns on During Focus. so when i am taking pics in dark (even with flash on mode) , the subjects are not focused properly and the pics become blurry usually.
Please developers can you make a patch [MOD] for HOX camera app so that it LED flash gets on during focus time as well.
this way pics in low light will be focused properly..
Thanks !

How to set photo resolution on Xperia M

Hi everyone
I bought Xperia M dual C2005 with android 4.3. I don't have the option for changing photo resolution in Camera and the photos are low quality (about 650 Kb per photo). Is there any way to change photo resolution?
Manual or Auto mode? You can do it only in manual mode by pressing on lower icon for settings and on top you have the option to choose resolution
I tried everything, but I can't find anywhere option for changing photo resolution and quality. Can you post a printscreen of your phone (if you have Xperia M)?

Here, see at top of picture options
Thanks a lot for your help.
I don't know how, but at first I couldn't find those options (and the one for switching to manual also). And after some time when I started camera application there were all those options, they came out of nowhere. I thought it was some software fault.
Even I set my resolution to 5MP photos are still low quality. Is camera on C2005 bad, or it can be some software problem? Photos on my Xperia mini ST15i are much better, and it also has 5MP camera.

i don't have any problem with my camera, maybe you can try another camera app or if you know about dcrc, you can try this
Obviously my camera has some problems, or it's something wrong with camera application. I tried with other apps and photos are slightly better, but still not as they should be. Thanks for your help.
