Comment by StaticNoiseLog

Frankly, I don't understand how it works. Maybe it is just post-processing that could be done on a PC. But if the technology somehow works best, when the exact details of the optical geometry/lens are...

that's interesting though it seems to address the problems of artifacts not of blurry images.

Answer by StaticNoiseLog for Feedback on camera tuning

When I made my first shots with the Jolla I was wondering whether it would be possible to squeeze more quality out of an average sensor with highly advanced software. Today I happened to come across...

I took my first few pictures today with the Jolla phone, for some reason I cannot upload them to my PC (Failed to get folder list: -1: Unspecified error). The camera app does not give me many as many...

Poor husband is going to need something better than a phone... (: Most digital cameras do give a close approximation of the final picture.

LOL, it is indeed "exposure compensation" that I am looking for. I did not even know this existed :-) Now, "exposure compensation for dummies" would be great: The preview on the display should match...

If I understand you correctly, that what's labeled "Exposure compensation" in another answer. And it's not a stupid idea, rather the opposite. It's almost a necessity for taking decent pictures if you...

WARNING: This may be very stupid from a technical point of view, but try to see it from a user perspective. Maybe my suggestion can be an inspiration for a novel feature that is actually useful. On a...

even at the current SW the result is extreme blurred. any chance to get this fixed? (as suggested above: configurable NR level)

Answer by tingo for Feedback on camera tuning

I'm running SailfishOS 1.0.3.8 now, and I still think that pictures are to blurry in low light conditions (whenever the autoflash kicks in). Even setting the flash to always on doesn't help. It's easy...

Aperture is fixed, so no possibilities there.

Yes, saving in RAW is a must.

Answer by netvandal for Feedback on camera tuning

I think that one of the most straightforward way to improve image quality could be allow manual setting of aperture/exposure and iso, in that way if the software is not mature enough to make a great...

Answer by bilgy_no1 for Feedback on camera tuning

I noticed in the first few pics I took (before the updates) that there seemed to be no noise reduction at all. That may lead to so people complaining about noisy pictures, but on the upside a lot of...

i think lowlight performance is better now. Glad to read that the AWB balance bug in artificial light and flash is on your to do. What i noticed that there is not much quality difference between...

Comment by TimTTK

I also want better control for shaking, it is really hard to get sharp images. Even a slight movement will result in blurry image. Taking shots with one hand is almost impossible if you want to catch a...

Answer by wstephenson for Feedback on camera tuning

I'd like to have a configurable shutter speed limit and a way to turn off the upper ISO limit. 1/30s is fine for static subjects but for shooting my kids I'd rather have more noise than blurry hands...

Answer by jsiren for Feedback on camera tuning

Exposure compensation controls are absolutely necessary. (+/-) The (still) picture quality seems to have improved somewhat. The noise reduction is much better now. Also, I don't know if it's the camera...

Comment by Jolla095

Setting the camera WB by eye is a bit difficult now because camera menu background makes the preview image darker. Could this menu background be removed. Maybe the camera menu were more of a Sailfish...

Comment by Jolla095

Less blur and sharper pictures might be easier to take, if the camera could be shot like in N9. Take the picture by sliding your finger off the virtual camera button. Less camera shake than push and...

Comment by Cmdr_Zod

"software IS" is marketing for turning up the ISO. Microsoft (if I remember correctly) once demonstrated a method to take two pictures, one underexposed and sharp, one soft and perfect exposed and...

Comment by Macilaci457

Instead of stabilization (I mean lack of OIS), what about a burst mode that automatically selects the most contrasty image and drops the rest? It could work because the images are the same scene to...

Comment by jsiren

@stezz, lacking optical IS, advanced techniques exist that could be used with motion sensors and some DSP, such as dividing and recombining the exposure to cancel out camera motion, or timing the...

Comment by biatch0

Yup that's exactly what I meant... I didn't mean literal ISO expansion like on a DSLR but just an option for higher ISO for those of us who understand the drawbacks of it.

View Article

Comment by stezz

ISO expansion is for cameras that have good sensors (i.e. high end). We have already a substantial amount of noise at ISO640. However we will introduce later the possibility of selecting the ISO you...

Comment by stezz

if you know of any option please let me know, I really never heard of anything like that for still pics.

View Article

Comment by biatch0

Well, I'd still very much appreciate the possibility of an ISO expansion option. Hopefully you guys will consider it :]

Comment by stezz

I think such a thing does not exist for still pictures :D

Comment by jsiren

How about a (software) image stabilizer?

View Article

Comment by stezz

That is why there is a 1/30s soft limit (1/30 is a decent threshold for wobbly hands)

Answer by biatch0 for Feedback on camera tuning

I haven't received my Jolla yet, so this may not be applicable - Setting max ISO to 640 in an effort to reduce noise is a double edged sword. Will it reduce noise? Yes... but at the cost of the shutter...

Comment by pnuu

Adjustable level of noise reduction (with ability turn it off) would be nice. In some cases I'd prefer to have noisier image where the details are not blurred by NR.

Noise in low light areas is kept to a minimum. But details disappear in the blackness, too.

Feedback on camera tuning

In case you have updated to 1.0.2.5 you might notice some improvements (I hope) on camera tunings, especially in low light conditions. In short: - Max ISO speed limited at ISO640 to reduce noise - Soft...
