wildfire picture quality - Wildfire General

hi. i wonder how's the picture quality taken from wildfire? i know that it has 5mp camera, but what about the quality? can anyone post a full res pic taken from wildfire here? am planning to get one soon. thanks

Wildfire has the same camera as Desire and Legend and in my opinion the quality of pictures is good.
Here some:

Pictures from my wildfire
Quality is in the middle...but the flash led is very usefull at night ...

thanks for the posts. i guess the picture is not so bad, cause i saw htc magic's picture on the web the other day, and i think it is really good. i'm divided-wildfire or se x10 mini pro. both has good specs, and camera quality for se-very nice.
but i think i'll have wildfire though. thanks guys

Hi mate!
I have a Wildfire and I'm not satisfied of its camera quality(video-photo both). Quality can't be comprared with Desire's. IMO if camera quality is important for you and if you got the money buy a Desire not Wildfire

Here is some of the pics I've taken with wildfire. And btw camera should be the same on wildfire and desire. 5mp 2592*1944 autofocus and led flash.

I have a Wildfire and my bro has a Desire. He shots better pictures. That means Desire has better camera.

The camera in Desire and Wildfire is exactly the same. I am telling you this as employee of the camera vendor who sells the camera to HTC.
There might be some difference in post-processing since the Desire has stronger processor. But from what I have seen the quality is the same.

thx for clearing that up And yeb the quality is very decent considering its a camera phone.

Thts great .. you should be of some help when we try to do things with the camera..like getting 720p recording ... i am sure if you are right then its possible on wildfire..

Is there any kind of blue tinge to all the pics or have my eyes gotten worse?

your eyes are very ok there is a bluish purplish tint ... lets hope it is eliminated in the new firmware update

try to use white balance settings. it will make your pictures much better. the auto mode is not working very well. who needs 720p recording on a smartphone especially on the wildfire, and if so, sorry guy you bought the wrong device for that.

Hi there, kinda new to the forum but I've been reading around threads and its very interesting. I got a question regarding the Wildfire camera.. basically quite a number of people both in here and outside the forum are saying that the Wildfire has the same camera as the Desire.
Now the Desire has a 1Ghz processor and more rame, but how can it be that a 512Mhz processor cannot record at least [email protected]? Ok, 720p might be a bit hardcore for this device but VGA resolution is quite resonable. Are there any ways that this might be changed? Maybe with a rooted wildfire? Or a firmware update?

I think... yeah its possible, but no 720p quality
Its is possible , but you should be happy with what you already got , a working camera,
All the other Windows phones that got android dont got working camera's

^^^ very good point.
Plus I would imagine that utilising a 720p resolution is goig to have a major impact on the already mediocre framerate.
IMO theres not much point having 720p recording if its going to be at 5fps.
Hopefully im wrong and it will be silky smooth at 720p
Well on robsbay.co.uk it has said for a while now that 720p is defiantly working but isn't in any builds yet.
I'm not sure if he actually means defiantly or definitely...
X2 on 720 not being worth it. High resolution video through a crummy lens is just a bad idea. Giant crappy video is still crappy video. Pick up a Kodak Zi8 if you want HD video on the cheap.

I disagree... yes, the quality will always be worse than a real video camera but the same applies to still images. DSLRs are head and shoulders above the best camera phone, so would you say camera phones might as well have stayed at VGA resolution instead of 5 or 8 MP common these days?
Unless there are framerate issues I'd love HD video capture. Some phones it's not so great, but some are pretty impressive given everything (the Samsung Galaxy S seem to do pretty crisp 720p).

Desire HD camera sensor.

Hello guys...
I have DHD rooted so I was searching some files with root explorer and I found this:
In sys/android_camera there is a file with name sensor.
So I opened this file with Root Explorer (View as text) and inside I saw the model of camera sensor that DHD uses and it's the OmniVision ov8810 8M...
After a little search in the web I found the official description of this sensor and you can find it here http://www.ovt.com/products/sensor.php?id=61#specifications.
From the Product Specifications you can see that the sensor can take video at 1080p.
So I assumed that we have the hardware but we miss the software...
Am I right???
Interesting. It can even take 720p in 60FPS, which would be veeery nice.
Ohh, interesting...
This does not surprise me. HTC is well-known for hampering their cameras. Maybe in an OTA later on or some crafty XDAer will check this out. I suggest PM'ing the ones who got 720p on the various other phones so they can check this out.
By the way, if my thoughts are correct and my eyes don't fool me, it says "10 @ Full"... even though I'm thinking this is full 8mp @ 10fps recording, this just does not seem real. No way in hell.
1080p? Honestly? I mean, it barely manages to capture [email protected]*, let alone [email protected], not to mention 1080p. I know DHD is one of the most powerful phone today, but I seriously doubt it has enough grunt to record at anything over 720p. Of course, I would be very glad if I could be proven wrong, but I'm affraid it won't happen .
Most of all, I would like to see it record video in [email protected] properly, especially in low(ish) light conditions.
On the brighter side, the image sensor does seem to be able to record in [email protected], [email protected] or indeed 10fps in full res, but I imagine it would require pretty fast memory card.
*Or it could be just stock SD card write speed limitation, but I doubt it.
gsmarena.com has been bashing the DHD's camera, in their latest review of the SE arc they even say that DHD is worthy of a true 8 megapixel camera comparison
i'm not on the latest rom so i can't tell if they've really made any improvements on the camera quality and i haven't been taking enough pictures to judge but i think there's no point in having 1080*60fps if the quality of the videos is ****

DHD can't match the quality of my 7mp camera. Lenses make all the difference, megapixels alone are pretty useless.

I use a custom ROM that is based in 1.72 and I have a class10 MicroSD and the video on 720p is very good with no lags...
So the thing I mentioned in first post is that the hardware seems to be capable to shoot in 30 @ 1080p.
No if the phone with all other parts is capable is another thing that some developers could answer...

Xperia X10 Camera tips for better results

Hello people
We have a wonderful 8 megapixel camera and if used properly we can get really amazing shots.
Lets discuss some tips and tricks we use to make the result even better.
Oh we have? I thought you said that android native camera app is much easier, better and faster to use? And now you make a thread for tips and tricks?
Why not give us a link of the android camera app. Its much easier dont you think?

when taking pic which is less than 10 CM we use macro,but does anyone has a idea how to take a similar pic like a portrait where only the person is focussed rest is blurred ,something like DSLR takes!!
My tip is to use the new HD1080 mode.... Seriously my pics since the last camera update have been incredible. Better than my digital camera by far.

HTC Desire HD camera impressions ?

Yes, dhd is a great phone and make very good pictures with the right settings.

actually, im a little underwhelmed with the photo quality to be honest. Iphone pics and htc one X pics are miles ahead. dont know about the galaxy s2 though. Id suggest just going with the One X anyways if you have the cash for it. The desire HD is an older phone, even though it still does everything right

ok tnx guys i will buy it sure
Desire HD is great for taking pics its superior to hero I had before.
Flash is ok.
If you want full camera options you need sense though, ics camera is still buggy on most roms untill htc releases kernel, stock android camera like cyanogen is limited and grainy for my personal experience. Miui is good but limited.

What?? The iPhone 4s is known for taking beautiful pictures... Im no apple fanboy and I stand by android but iPhone 4s clearly takes better pictures than the desire hd. Now the One x(my current baby) blows both out of the water. OP, if you have the $99 for a HTC One X I highly advise it
The DHD camera is great, just make sure you use the stock camera app or the MIUI one.
Here's a few pics I took with it. You can judge yourself. They're not on par with a standard digital camera, but I think they come close. A better photographer would probably get something a little crisper.

These aren't the DHD's full potential, the sun's glare was too much and I couldn't really see my shot until I took it.
You can judge if the camera is good enough for you (Note, this was taken with the Inspire 4g, which should be exactly the same as the DHD in terms of camera)

I made some tests, and for me THE BEST camera app is Camera Pro (Camera X) for NICE Steady photo mode, horizontal level (oh yeaah), and other ... also, considering post #2 link, You can catch better photos.
Also, I noticed, that THE BEST and awesomes Photos & Videos are making in Virtuous Infinity (better, than stock).
Virtuous Infinity uses stock sense camera should be no difference to other sense Roms.

yes you should definitively check my Desire HD camera guide
but to give you a final conclusion
the Desire HD camera can give great clean 8Mpixel results with very little digital processing, however the shutter speed is slow, so patience and a stable hand is required
