Here's how you take faster pictures
Step 1: Get in your car and drive to your local VZW Store
Step 2: Purchase a 4S
Step 3: Throw the Bionic in the garbage
Done
Lololol troll fail. You're in an Android forum, none of us obviously care for iOS or an iPhone. Go away.
Anyways, I'm getting pretty good results, if you're a cheapskate like me and want the free way out, with the MIUI camera app. And yes, everything works, effects and zoom and everything else. It's very nice and quick. It autofocuses very fast, and I can hold down anywhere on the screen and tap the screen to take a picture, or just hold down the camera button and it'll focus and take a picture in less than 1 second in low-to mid light.
