My breakfast. No effects or anything:

I don't understand cropping on this phone, none of the pics I have or take can be cropped where the entire or most of the subject of what I take is captured. I wanted to upload this to instagram but I want the entire dish...not part of it, and this is as big as I can get it. Ive tried pulling the corners, pinching them tapping etc.

Practiced with select focus on wooden fence. Used snapSeed on horse carriage picture. Did have camera app crash twice and had to reboot phone. No error messages, just froze.

Probably because that's as big a picture as you can upload on Instagram

Well the hell with instagram then lol

I'll wait until Instagram fixes the problem, and it is a problem.

I have 1890 pics on my phone and NONE would look good posting to instagram. ZERO.

I dont mean to be or want to come off as snarky... but you do know that instagram only does square photos? it looks like you are at the edge of your photos... or would you like to have black bars on your photo? like letterbox?

the breakfast looks awesome though! making me hungry

I knew nothing about instagram until today. Now I know this: It sucks.

A photo editing app in google store. One of the best imo, I use it on the iPhone also. It's free.

I think it looks good, thought a little blurry

I run a watch collecting forum so one of my top concerns when it comes to new phones is the ability to deal with macro shots.

The S5 did good!

Now THAT'S a darn good picture! Any post processing? And did you make setting changes?

 

[monicakm]

Why are all of my photos blurry? I turned image stabilization off. Every photo is fuzzy and blurry. They are taken in good light, etc. Maybe it is just me.

Why are people turning IS OFF? You wouldn't turn it off on a real camera. I use IS day and night (on my Canon). It used to be that you'd want to turn it off during very long exposures but I don't find that the IS motor affects my long exposures. Is there a reason you don't want IS on in good light?

Image stabilization on your Canon is hardware enabled, the S5 has a software mode to provide a basic form of image stabilization which is completely different to the hardware implementation on your Canon.

The S5 with image stabilization enabled takes multiple pictures and then stiches them together to provide better low light photos. The downsides of this is any movement in the image or in the photgrapher will result in blurring and a complete waste of the shot plus you get a loading screen when you take pictures. Your Canon with hardware implemented image stabilization experiences none of these issues.
