The camera on the new Evo is so much better than the one on my old Evo 3d, it's not even funny. Check out some photos I took from our recent vacation with the new Evo.

Everyone's pictures in this thread really look great. I'm not sure where or why complaints about the camera have come up. Maybe they recheck their current settings and retake some pictures.

There you go again ?

Most pics are soft and out of focus , and lot of noise. there are some which are good.

Clearly most pics have issues... not sure why you say "settings" will fix it.

which pics are soft and out of focus? most of the pics people are posting look fine to me. especially the ones above your last post from the guy who took vacation pictures. you say you arent looking at the pics as you would from a professional camera, but you clearly are. at the end of the day, we're taking pictures from a phone, not using a camera to call and text people.

maybe you got a defective phone. all my pics that ive taken look great on the phone and on the computer screern. browsing these forums i see a lot of people complaining about a lot of defective features on their devices. maybe you got one with a botched camera.

People need to post the full size/resolution pics. When I click on them, they are sized way down which helps almost any picture look better.

I have to agree though, most of the disconcerting stuff is in the 1:1 full images..some incredibly weird dispersion, dithering, or processing going on there, even in broad daylight. I am curious if that is something in software they could change. Still some settings to experiment with.

However, since any pic I take is likely to be scaled down and posted to social sites or such, the end result is all that matters, and just a mild amount of scaling makes most of it go away. Even a regular printout of most of the pics I have taken so far will look just fine IMO.

I was never thinking this would replace my point and shoot or DSLR..this thing is still light years ahead of a lot of other phone cameras, and definitely an upgrade for me.

Am including a 100% crop of a daytime shot so you can see what it is doing even under ideal conditions. In the night shot you can still see a ton of noise even scaled down, BUT, I probably wouldn't have even been able to take a shot like that on my old phone.

Edit: Here's an album of them at 1600x resolution, can see a little better without the forum scaling.

It seems that the only pics where this camera shines is on micro pictures. They look really good. Even plenty of light though in regular pics ends up in noise and distortion.

Haven't posted much or, at all on this site, but am loving the camera on this phone..

edit.

here's some HQ images

**b1time** · 05-31-2012, 06:23 PM

A few shots around Central park here in NYC

**sandman132** · 06-01-2012, 01:31 AM

I'm so happy with the camera! I have gs2 on cricket(work phone), my Evo LTE on sprint and my wife has galaxy nexus. My Evo by far is the best camera! I simply turned my saturation down by 1click and always take burst photos as I find 2nd or 3rd always come out more clear cause the camera focuses better.

The lighting wasn't the greatest (and detail suffers because of that) but burst mode can catch some good pictures I wouldn't capture otherwise

**Captweez** · 06-01-2012, 12:37 PM

Taken on a vacation in Toronto. Some are HDR, no outside of camera editing.

**devgrp** · 06-01-2012, 05:22 PM

Fellows, dont feed the trolls. They are just mad the that GSII cant keep up. These are straight from the camera, just resized. All you GSII fanboys, why dont you posts some full size pics for comparison.

Like someone else mentioned, you can give a person a $2000+ camera and they will still take crappy pictures. Those are the same people who see the austin kucher nikon commercial and think that just because they have an expensive DSLR, they will automatically get nice pictures.

**k000** · 06-01-2012, 05:59 PM

Looking at just this set of pics I am certain there are many dud cameras out there and lucky few with good lot with a decent ameara. I will be checking in store next week.

There are no dud cameras. Its all about the person taking the pics. I can give my 14 yo sister my 7D or 40D and she probably wouldnt get a nice if she didnt know what she was doing.

I urge everyone to change the iso to 100 and leave it unless the lighting is really bad. Also change from widescreen mode to the standard 4:3 mode, because you are loosing pixels in ws

I think cell phone cameras more than any type are used by non camera aficionados so any advice to improve performance is extremely helpful to many!

are these from evo lte, gs2, gs3 or epic touch?
