OPO picture samples.

I have to reiterate that the lack of ois is becoming a real negative and the only one thing thus phone falls short on.

Pictures often come out very blurry. Do you guys have a solution for this? I end up having to take multiple photos just to make sure one of them will be clear.

Does "clear shot" or "steady shot" solve this issue? Or does it trade in other qualities just to get something more in focus? What are those two differences anyway?

Any other suggestions?

OIS is good, but not magical. I had a HTC One M7 before my OPO and the OIS wasn't that big a deal. The iPhones take great pictures, and just now they get OIS in the 6 plus.

This moon shot was taken hovering my OPO over my cheap telescope's eyepiece, trust me there was a lot of movement and shaking when I snapped this.

The key to good low light pictures is to steady your phone with an object and use a 3 second timer so the phone doesn't shake when you press the screen to take the picture. Patience is better than OIS.

I personally didn't like the stock camera on the OPO. So I installed the plug-ins for the color os camera and use it. It provides much better pics. Better shutter speeds. Plus more options.

These are all pictures I took with my OPO. I generally used the Google camera or Camera ZOOM Fx to take the photos and then just auto enhanced in Google+

I think it's in the middle. I wish it has wider angle because I noticed I have to move further back to capture more when in smaller rooms.

Low light captures also a hit and miss. I really like my OPO but if camera is your top most priority, you might want to look elsewhere. Having said that, the OPO's camera is still good. And at that price, you can't complaint.
 
Phil wrote a great article over the weekend with some basic tips for good camera pictures. I have taken some excellent pics with my OPO, yet my wife manages to produce utter crap with her Note 4. There is no magic phone camera, you have to put a little effort into getting greatness from your pictures, and a little post processing doesn't hurt either. This picture was taken using the slow shutter for 8 seconds with the OPO camera (the Color OS camera is great for longer exposures too, it goes up to 32 seconds). I used a makeshift tripod and a 3 second timer to avoid shaking the phone while taking the picture.

I'm really considering buying a adapter to hold my phone on a tripod, it's impossible to get good low light pictures without any real steadiness.

Just some quick shots from a trip. Nothing special

This was taken with the OPO stock camera app set to auto.
