I used HDR Camera+ in the Android market. 6 mp setting; I think it defaults to 5mp so go into settings and put it to 6mp. Also, download QuickPic for viewing the images you take with HDR Camera+ because the default Gallery crashes. QuickPic is much better anyway. The new Moto gallery app is ludicrously bad.

I've got it set to 8mp. Did you change any of the exposure, contrast, or capture speed settings?

Doesn't look that bad, especially for a panorama shot. I've increasingly seen more people being able to work the camera a little better. Maybe just getting used it it? Idk...I'm going to get Vignette and HDR+ to test those out (tomorrow if Costco has stock...but I'll go to Verizon if they don't)

No, pretty much standard on the other settings except - use "Slow mode 1" capture! "Fast" does not work on the Bionic.

There's a bug where the 8mp setting isn't "sticky" and reverts to the 5mp setting.

I like the 6mp setting because it's widescreen.

Now that I know that you can drag the focus square to the area that you want to concentrate on, and wait until the focus square is green before you shoot, I'm getting better pictures.
Also, don't zoom in too much, if any at all.

I had heard of that before

. I wonder if a lot of people didn't know about that feature..or just were relying on the auto focus too much?

Do you have HDR Camera+ set on Capture Mode = Slow Mode 1? Fast Mode does not work properly on the Bionic. You will see a huge difference if you are using Fast Mode now.

Is there a way to rid myself of that stupid faux shutter noise in HDR Camera +?

**wpwoodjr#ac** · 09-15-2011, 07:47 PM

No. I wrote the developer and they don't know how to get rid of it. There is a setting but it doesn't work.

My pics seem to be over saturated or something with HDR Camera+. Cant seem to get rid of it no matter what settings I change.

I had to turn it off in the stock camera app and in HDR+

Were you able to get rid of the shutter noise in the HDR Camera+ app too?

Yes. I don't have the shutter sound anymore.

I wonder if other settings from the stock camera affect HDR Camera+ as well? Might explain why my HDR pics keep looking oversaturated, time to do some testing.

A couple of HDR shots I took today.

I can't turn it off. I have "Mute Shutter" on in HDR Camera+ and "Shutter Tone" off in the camera app. How did you do it?

It's back on

I just used my camera for the first time in a couple days and now its making to shutter noise again. Not sure what happen.....I cant get it to turn back off again. I didnt reboot my phone, maybe that turned it back on.

**pdecell** · 09-17-2011, 02:23 PM

Nice pictures....I just got HDR Camera+ yesterday. Hopefully the rain stops here so I can play with it.

**greydarrah** · 09-18-2011, 05:26 PM

I notice that HDR seems to take 3 images and merge them together. That sounds fine for stuff that stays still like a landscape shot. How does it do with people?
