So can we sue samsung for false advertisement (camera related) ???

[Tanooki2]

I find the camera seriously lags and I've had more blurry shots than my Note 2. I feel like the lens hunts for focus too much and then when I hit the button, it's focused on something I didn't intend to.

In terms of the lag, I was storing the images on my card and it would literally be more than 5 seconds to process after a shot. My screen would time out and go black before it was done. I thought it was the speed of my card so I switched storage to the internal memory. That helped, but it's still very slow. Is this how everyone's behaves?

Not at all. Do you have on hdr or something that had to process each shot?

"I NOTICE I am not the only one but everyone claims to have issues with the camera."
Over generalize much???
In light of the fact that many claim they don't have your issues with the phone's camera it would seem more likely that you simply don't know how to use the camera and can't be bothered to learn. Oh wait, that would be operator error.Could it be you should sue yourself?

No HDR is not on.

Re: so can we sue samsung for false advertisement ???

I figure the same thing. It's just weird because I don't know how you can screw up holding the phone and pressing on the shutter button. I've taken very good shots on a few phones that i've owned in the past like the Nexus 5 and the S3. The Nexus had a notoriously inconsistent camera, yet I got my best shots with it. Yet with this Note, having arguably the best camera hardware of any Android I cannot get a non-blurry shot. I've tried HDR on, Sports Mode, upped my ISO, set everything to auto, and still nothing consistently works. Sure, i'll get a few really good ones but I find myself deleting far more than I save. And I am NOT a photo snob so for me to delete a photo it has to be pretty bad.

Any mode you invoke including sports mode, will have less of an effect in less than ideal lighting conditions. If you are outdoors during the day in good light, you should be o.k.

try comparing to another one in person; mine is being replaced for being defective. I read another thread claiming almost every note 4 received at a particular store were defective....quality control issues

Have you guys tried these tips by Andrew.

If it does not fix your Camera issue then go replace your phone. I have been taking great shots with my phone. I have no complaints so far.
