Went out to lunch today. The phone did pretty well here, the sun was so bright I was having a hard time seeing the food.

For an Add I put on Craigslist earlier today .
Beautiful picture. The Turbo does an excellent job taking sunshots. It does not over-expose and it lets in the correct amount of light.
So agree! I bet he took the plastic off his screen!

Oh that's the same guy? No wonder why he took that picture. I think he "saw the light".
Firedogee- took your advice and shut off hdr. Even played with all other settings at store. Made sure phone had update. Guy next to me at Verizon agreed- the camera lag is terrible. It responds immediately to the touch when taking picture. However, it doesn't actually capture an image until a second or so later. This may not matter to some, but it is significantly inferior to my DNA and even my old EVO 4g. I really love the phone but this is a dealbreaker.
I just want to post this so others aren't blinded by a plethora of positive posts from some members. Any chance there is some sort of likely fix or should I just move on?

Agree, lag time is awful when taking a picture. I went to two different Verizon stores and each demo unit had the same problem.

Another quick album.
imgur: the simple image sharer
Set one is HDR on bottom, HDR seems more true to life. Can't really tell on set two, forgot which one is which. I think the top one is HDR, but they're very similar. Third set has HDR on the bottom, notice how the white sign on the right is readable. Also the guy in the picture jumped in at the last second, surprised that one didn't come out blurry. Camera seems to be hit or miss when it comes to motion.
Also that was Portuguese food haha.
You said the Motorola update that everyone should install fixed any lag. It is possible that android 5.0 fixes the issue but it is a couple of months away and I am not as confident.
Those are some incredible shots. Definitely making me feel better about this camera. What is amazing in set 1 is that you can clearly see the lettering on the vehicle mirror control and icons on the signal controller stalk yet also read the signs on the dumpsters. Yes, I know it's really bright out and the f stop would be fairly closed down but that is amazing depth of field.
Nobody said it was perfect, but it's getting great reviews from the experts... even compared to the iTrash 6. It is a bit bit slower in low light or shooting a moving subject. Android 5.0 will fix all these inconveniences.
