Do you think the HDR feature enhances pictures?

It enhances colours i think, like comparing dvd to HD. I love it
heard in software version 29 they are improving the feature too should look even better

Yes if you have stable hands. as it takes 3 shots (i think) at different exposures and merge them. to produce one detailed picture with sharper and more vibrant color at least depending on the shot.

It works as long as you have steady hands. It takes one overexposed shot, one underexposed, one normal, and combines all the best detail and colors from each shot to get the best image.
So you can have photo of a bright foreground subject with good detail, and also a good detail/brightness background.

No, it enhances the dynamic range of the picture. No for fast moving objects though because it should work by taking several shots at different exposure settings and combines them to achieve that effect. Basically you have the white and near-white differentiation from the under exposed shot and the black and near-black from the overexposed shot. That way you have neither overblown ares in your picture (white spots) nor dark areas (black spots).
Compared to our eyes camera sensors have relatively small dynamic range so HDR helps there but sometimes it makes the shot unrealistic (which might be the desired effect)

The camera APP is pretty terrible. I LOVE the UI though, but it compresses images waaay too much. I use a third party app to bypass the compression, and the quality is so much better

this also depends on the surroundings and the light situation.
just an example - HDR with stock camera and no tripod, just held the One X in my hands. (dropbox link)
@submission7
so yes, in some situations, HDR can produce a better outcome/photo.
just try it out and you'll find for yourself when/where it works best

I heard camera FX does but not sure.
I tried the HDR yest during sunset, my wife had the sun behind her and seriously amazing stuff all you have to do is a hold still for a bit, i took like 10 photos all without any ghosting, its not like Desire HD where you had to really hold still for a normal photo lol!
amazed to say the least, sorry its photos of my girl so i can't share them
Camera360 also bypasses the compression.
But with the last update (1.29) the stock camera app improved as well...
A really nice, upcoming app is Camera FV-5. The developer already announced many improvements/bugfixes for HTC One X.

Hi, i'd like to know how did it improve, is the image compression better? or anything else ?
compared to the previous firmware versions (1.26 & 1.28) the compression isn't that strong any more.
compared to other camera apps however, it's still strong(er), but personally I can live with that.

HDR has nothing to do with ghosting though It just takes properly exposed, overexposed and underexposed shots of the same thing and merges all three.

Like the previous reply, Camera360 bypasses it, but still uses the sensor so the images are much better.
thanks for all your replies...will try it out...
PS do other phones have this capability ie not the one series or is it fairly unique to us like the multi snapper trigger happy mode

The phone takes three images so if you move the camera after pressing the shutter you will see ghosting. The One X shutter lag is shorter then the DHD that's why it's easier to take HDR with the One X.

yes it does, if you or your subject move you get difference in the three images and hence some ghosting
the fast shutter speed in the One X is helping immensely in this regards

True in a way, but the essence of a HDR image is one being overexposed, hence a slower shutter (or depending, a software EV+ and keeping the same shutter speed).

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.

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 ??
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.
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.

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

Needs Improvement
The camera could use an upgrade in software. Blurry and noisy images in low light. But no issues in manual mode.
I came across a video on YouTube which shows how we can take better photos with the Rog Phone 2 using the Google Camera.

What are your thoughts?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I've seen several of these comparisons, and I often prefer the stock camera images over the Gcam images. The ones of the toy car and phone in that video are prime examples.
I suggest learning manual controls. Even if you don't use it in normal shooting, understanding what's going on with settings will help you take better photos. Remember, only you know what kind of photo you want, not some random programmer that never met you. Because of that, auto modes can be hit and miss, and understanding manual controls will allow you to quickly adjust for those times auto mode isn't working for you.
We need to make a camera thread, the photos from this phone are actually good without gcam

OIS is over-hyped anyway for a phone. The range of motion to correct isn't very big with such a small sensor. I've seen a test video of the electronic stabilization, and it worked extremely well.

From https://www.blog.google/products/pixel/see-light-night-sight/
If your subject moves during the capture, Night Sight can adapt to prevent a modest amount of motion from ruining the shot. Instead of capturing one bright and blurry photo, Night Sight captures an equal amount of light over a burst of many photos that are dark but sharp. By merging this burst, Night Sight prevents motion blur and brightens the photo, giving you a bright and sharp photo.

My V20 has it and I can get maybe a notch slower shutter speed than without. Not much difference. If it was something like Pentax's full frame DSLR, that gives 5 stops of shake reduction, that would be a big difference.
