Zooming - Galaxy S II General

I haven't seen anything about this yet, check it out:
You can zoom when taking a picture using pinch to zoom, but also during a video recording! I've never seen that on an Android phone thus far. Maybe I've just missed it?

So cool..I had no idea

I have seen this before. Can't remember where, I don't see real function for this anyway. I prefer to use pinch to zoom

That zoom function is already on the SGS.

How do I record video?

Do I need an app from the market to record video? Or is there an app on the vibrant that already records video?

In the camera slick the icon that looks like the video camera. It will switch to the video mode.
Ahh.. should have known. Thanks
There is a reason why people are hired to make Owners Manuals.

Looks great. But running that in background of a actual useful app.say a game even browsing the net is the question. Looks CPU graphic intense.
It does look pretty cool, but I agree with Erica. I'd be afraid that it would be too much of a resource hog and bog down my tablet. Be nice to show off to the friends so they can witness the awesomeness of my Acer, but I probably wouldn't want it for everyday use.
I don't think it would consume enough resources and lag the device.....as far as spb goes...even at the release of the current version of spb..(which iss now available in the market)..it was thought to slow down any device...but it didn't....

I don't know... something about it is, kinda.. off... I can't put my finger on it. I mean it certainly has the eye-candy... but is it forsaking eye-candy for functionality? *shrug*
We have to look past the silky smooth actions here - everything looks great when you hand keyframe the animations just nice and perfect. It's still in concept so I have to reserve judgment until there is something more along the lines of an alpha/beta. Looking forward to seeing where this goes.
I hope it they release the app soon.....they launched the concept video in early march.....the launcher was for honeycomb....they better launch before android 4.0.....

I have this for the Evo, look for it market: SPB Launcher 3D. It is great. Add more screens, and the integration with all the Widgets make it a smooth transition from any other launcher.
As for CPU usage. I found that it ran better then my HTC: S with animated wallpaper.
I am really waiting on this to be released for the tablet. As my a500 could really use more screens and the customization features of this launcher.
i am using the SPB shell on my galaxy s i9000 slighlty overclocked 1.1Ghz. it works very well, does not slow down anything.
it is really great to use.
Spb launcher for tabs is out......

Ya. Clearly.
I bought it for my Charge, didn't work well. Market wouldn't show it for the A500, so I downloaded a bootleg apk just to see if it worked. Basically said this is an incompatible device and closes. I still want to see what it can do on the tab, since it's far more powerful than my phone.

Camera Quality

Does anyone else have doubts about the atrix & utilizing the face unlock feature when available? Our front facing camera is worse than any other I've seen :/
Just a thought, so many while I highly anticipate ICS.

front camera face unlock is a gimmick.
just like 3D photos.

Thanks exactly what I was thinking.
The Front camera on the atrix is HORRIBLE in low light conditions...... so yeah I don't think it will function very well for the people that would be interested in it.

I agree, and swiping the finger on the screen is faster than trying 5 times to unlock the phone with your face. I don't expect the face unlock feature to work very well.
Who here would actually want to sit there and look at your phone to unlock it? Much less in public lol. Plus I'm sure it's not instant and I like being able to get into my phone right away.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Haha I thought it was a pretty cool idea.. then I saw how much better other phones front camera is than ours, you'd have to be in direct light for it to maybe function, even then the quality is very poor.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
The front camera is actually not that bad. Take some photo and it comes out ok on the computer.
The problem is the crappy pentile LCD, which causes some 'burning' effect on red/dark areas.
This has been proven to be a gimmick and anyone with a photo of you can actually unlock your phone!
For me fingerprint reader works wonderful!

The gallery is really impressive too. Also, I watched a video in GSMArena.com. At the end of the video, they showed some effect like Scalado Remove. In the video, 3 girls were posing, those girls were like a picture and people were moving in the background! Really impressed me!
I like the look of the "sequence" shot thingy, very impressive.:good:

[Q] Panorama Available on GS4?

I have to carry an iPhone around for work in addition to my personal phone. The only time I use the iPhone is for Panorama shots, but I was wondering if the GS4 can do them as well.
I did a search (both on XDA and Google) and nobody states whether panorama capabilities are available on the GS4.
The only mentioning on Google is some report back in March stating that the GS4 could also do 3D photos. So obviously that's a lie too.
Does anyone know?
of course even my galaxy s2 can

Yep it can, there is an example of it in one of the camera photo threads in the main section.
Nice. Thanks guys. It looks like the iPhone panorama, right? Not the "Spherical" that I've been seeing.
