Light painting flipped - Honor 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Just tried out light painting mode on the camera and noticed the image is flipped/ mirror. This is using the rear camera..
Is this the expected behavior or a bug?

Only light painting is flipped?

It's a software bug I guess

i light painting, there are 4 sub modes... light graffiti is the only one that is flipped. i am guessing they worry when ppl write letters with light, it might be opposite, hence image is flipped/ mirror...
so, i guess need to be careful what is the selected mode when using this light painting. i didn't notice the sub-modes until much later.

bug or feature... no idea. i guess those using light graffiti need to take note and write like normal.
actually, i can test on the P9 that i have... heh heh... just to confirm if it's the same on P9. update later...

It looks like a feature then. Update us with the P9 results.

managed to finally test with p9.. and.. ya, it's also flipped for graffiti painting. so I guess it's a feature.. and I can see why though I don't necessarily agree.. if a person looking at the camera when doing like painting, then ya, flipping image might then make the alphabet look "correct". but I'm the type that write "correctly" when doing this.. so flipping the image means my alphabet is no longer correct..
but.. I'm ok with it I guess. just good info to know.. plus, make sure you know which sub mode you're using.. coz if you left it at graffiti painting when you wanna capture traffic, then image is flipped/ mirror..

[Q] note 2 camera is dark

Are you in a dim environment? Or are you in a bright room?

If you are taking a picture with low light, candle light or very little ambient light then the picture may come out underexposed (dark) and grainy (noise due to low light). Both problems are associated with low light. Even expensive DSLRs are susceptible to noise in low light however the small camera sensor found in the Note 2 makes it even more apparent.

I have the same issue but when I use any third party camera apps I,m getting less "grain" compared to the stock camera app. Any idea whats wrong? Is it a software issue or do I have to get it replaced?
It seems people started to noticed camera issue. I hope other people could shed some light .
Regards
The_Rock
I'm getting excessive graininess too, definitely more noticeable than the original note, could this be fixed by a software update? Or is it game over due to the hardware?
I don't know if the camera is dark but the led Flash sure is. It's not as strong as my previous S2. This indeed is bothering me.

Noticed this earlier. The live shot on the screen was perfect but the captured image was darker.
Any way to just capture as is? I.e. what you see is what you get?

Are you sure it's not because the screen goes to full brightness in camera? It does when you have auto-brightness on, anyway.

Ah, could well be that. Cheers!
well my brightness is always full and still this issue exists, can anyone else shed any light on this?
Its a known issue with international note 2 version. From what i know. its a hardware issue!
Low light pictures are definitely grainy without flash. But aside from this, I can't really say the pictures from my Note II are dark.
Try switching your Metering mode to Matrix?

IMO its a software issue i've been trying out a lot of third party camera apps and the noise(grainy-ness) is a lot different from the stock camera app. It would be really helpful if some developer looks into this.

Agree, i like the camera on note 1 much more than note 2, to me note 2 beats note 1 in all areas except in camera.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
so this problem is confirmed??
I was going through the review on gsmarena, they have mentioned the camera to be better than the note 1 and really close to the S3 can someone confirm that the graininess is common on all note 2s or only the ones who have already discussed it here ??

Yellow Tint

Can anyone share with me what there screens are like. Mine appears decidedly yellow and im starting to worry that the screen is defective. My HTC One M7 has much bluer tones and I personally prefer it. My M8 just appears dirty!

Might be just me. Im really neurotic when it comes to my tech
I've also got this problem, it might not be that easy to see on the picture I've attached, but you can at least see that the colors are not the same. I've also tested the screen with an app called Screen test, and it seems to completely fail the Checker board test under Resolution and Horizontal resolution (1 pixel) makes the display flicker.

Yeah, but I'm not sure if it's due to the HTC Color Enhancement, or if the screen is bad. The stores says it's just a different color temperature on the screen.
The the light in the proximity sensors are IR captured by the camera, so I can't see it (except through another camera ofc)

Take excellent night photos with Lg Camera manuell mode!

I discovered that take the option beside ISO option (to the right) a option with an S (shutter time). Take and move that to 1.0 in very dark areas, and you will be surprised and maybe a bit happy for the rest of that day like i did
Edit: You can change the ISO and the shutter time to get even better pictures in night

Hi,
Thanks for sharing this. How about video quality and OIS performance of G4? I heard about shaky videos captured using G4 while walking., compared with S6. Can you confirm that or perhaps share some sample videos?

One more thing, you can play with the ISO in night picture to, to get a better night picture..
Tripod
iso - 50
manual focus - put it up..
shutter 4 seconds - 30 if there are no flares / lights
plus: put a timer(3 seconds) because if you press the shutter button you will move the phone
Wow the first pics on this topic look like trash...

How'd you do that?!
manual mode, long exposure time (8-30s), low iso (50-200).
for the "light writing" you need a light source, in that case i used the backlight of my bicycle.
due to the long long exposure time you cant do those picture "by hand", you will need a solid stand, I used a tripod.

Low light

At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the OnePlus 3T's camera performs when no or low light is present. A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Blurry images, all the time, totally unacceptable. Using OS 3.2.8
Rated 4, you need to know how to take the best shot. Not exactly the point and shoot but otherwise with manual controls it's really good.

auto, HQ mode, as you can see both shots are handheld as per my shadow on the lower right of the 1st picture.
HQ modes gives cleaner output than manual except if ISO is 100 but we need tripod for that because we need also longer exposure which I believed OIS can't handle longer than 1/3s due to handshakes
Another night shot test after installing the new Oxygen OS 4.0.3 with improved camera in low light.
Hello guys,
Am planning to buy 3T. Can you rate this model on overall basis ? Also, does anybody know about 4T or 5T release date ?

Try manual mode.
In low light use hq mode for better pictures.
And look on the lens if it's dirty.

I donn't know what to expect nowadays, but it's definately bad.
Here's some lowlight shots, I don't take many pictures coz photography is my least priority right now, I bought 3T for its performance hehe!
Taken last week 9 o'clock p.m.
Zoooooooommmmmmm!!!! :good:

Needs Improvement
The camera could use an upgrade in software. Blurry and noisy images in low light. But no issues in manual mode.

Video Quality

Many of us agree the video quality is just Okay when compared to the photo quality. What I'm trying to figure out, if this is across the board with everyone? Has anyone taken video in lighting in the house? If so, did it come out just Okay? Like I said, photo quality is great, just the video I have an issue with.
Try to turn off the stabilizer indoor it gives better video quality,no more image crop.

This is very good video talking about details,but if you means the colors not accurate it's because the halogen lights can trick the auto white balance,not only in this phone in every other phone too.
You can try the manual white balance but not sure if there is a preset for this kind of lighting.
