Do you always turn on the HDR+ mode whenever you take photos with the nexus 5?
Dunno why but the HDR+ to me the least is how the Nexus 5 camera should act, and it's not a real HDR anyway
 
Actually the Nexus 5 is one of the few phone cameras that does real HDR. It takes 3 rapid shots at different apertures and the computer combines them to get a wider dynamic range than otherwise possible. Most others simply adjust a single image to poorly simulate HDR.

HDR+ "ON" is my default.

No, it is doing real HDR. The Nexus is actually taking multiple images at different exposures and blending them.

High-dynamic-range imaging - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

It does not handle scenes with action very well. Even just people walking. if you have a scene with movement, I would turn it off to get a clear picture.
 
I can't seem to make HDR stay on by default, it resets itself eventually?

Just about any time you change any of the camera settings, it will come off of HDR+. When you're done with whatever other setting you were using, you'll have to turn HDR+ back on. It should stay on HDR+ unless you change a setting.
 
Took this at the Spaghetti Factory in Downtown Denver. This is inside a trolly that is entombed inside the restaurant and used for dining space. This was VERY low light and the Nexus handled it awesomely.

I love the pictures that cone from this phone. I don't understand the complaints about it.

Since today is St. Patrick's Day, I figure my camera photo of the day should be appropriate for this. :)

Just got my nexus 5 having used an iPhone 4s for the last 3 years and absolutely love it. Can't wait to start getting to grips with android and customise things
