[Q] Is the auto focus in video mode really that slow? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
I just recorded a short video to show the auto focus:
/e Hm YOUTUBE BBCODE doesn't seem to work so here's the Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDSfV5EGW80
(0:7 when I focus my pants again).
Usually it is even slower.
Is that normal/for everyone else the same? It seems so slow to me..
Thanks

Why don't you tell me the video was private? D:

Video Recording Issues?

It could just be me, but can anyone zoom in/out whilst recording, i repeat, WHILST recording? I dont appear to be able to do so, seems a bit silling not having this ability.
Also, seeing as though filming in the dark with the legend is pretty much impossible, is there anyway you can turn the led on during video capture mode? Some kind of ROM?
Thanks

Blurry video recording

I have noticed a problem with the video recording on my HD2 as of lately. When I get ready to record a video the image on the screen is sharp. As soon as I hit the record button the image goes out of focus and is no longer sharp. As soon as I stop recording the image on the screen is sharp again. I don't remember it doing this when I first got the phone. I'm not sure if I changed something in the registry to cause this problem or not. Has anyone else heard of this happening or know of a way to fix it? I searched, but it does not look like others have posted this issue before.
Thanks
P.S. Here are my video settings as of now.
Resolution VGA (640x480)
Review Duration: No Review
Capture Format: MPEG4
Sharpness +5
Sounds like the auto focus is some how messing up. Could be something on the lens that is making out of focus or something. Not sure what else would cause that. If you are running a cooked rom maybe try reflashing it.
The lens is clean and the camera focus is fine in camera mode. It will also focus fine in video mode until the second I hit the record button. The focus issue only occurs when I hit record to capture a video.
Am I really the only person with this problem?
I also have this problem but with the normal HD2, the camera for pictures works fine. The problem occurs when recording video, first its all clear..hit record...blurry...im not sure what to do :O
Glad to know I'm not alone in this problem. I tried to record a quick clip today at work, and the camera was actually able to stay in focus when I hit the record button. Here is the sample clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB70tTDl1t0
This is the best quality I have been able to get out of it. I'm going to keep messing with it to see if anything changes.

Video clarity is very bad

Hi all,
Just now I tried to make a video with my SGS2, but when it is reaching a closeup range, its quality becoming blurry, and overall quality is very poor. Even I tried to focus on a remote, we cant read the numbers in the remotes with this video. But still image is very perfect. Do anybody face this problems?
Hello, Nobody to reply? Do eveybody haven't problems with Video capturing?
Actually I have the same problem.. Autofocus while in video seems to suck pretty bad, yet in still capture the phone focuses fine. Tried to record flashing a rom on my other phone in a dark room and it refused to focus at all. Don't know why. Even if I shined a light to see if that would help but nope.
(EDIT) I just noticed that autofocus only seems to work in 1080 recording mode and only while you are recording. It does not appear that autofocus works at all in 720, 480, or any other video resolution. I can't find any info on that. Anybody know why? Is this a "feature"?

[Q] Continuous autofocus in video camera

Is there any way to turn off continuous autofocus in video mode? It makes still video pretty much unusable when it's constantly refocusing every 5-10 seconds. It's really distracting when watching the video back.
Has anyone else noticed this?
Does this not bother anyone else?
I use the S4 for filming on a tripod, and I basically can't use any of the footage because of the continuous autofocusing.
I recently tried lgCamera, it seems to have the focus options I need, but isn't really compatible with the S4 yet. The most it will capture is 15 FPS.
Suggestions?

Anyone having issues with video recording? - 1080p60fps Stuttering

I seem to be having issues with video recording and stutter. The settings are 1080p 60fps, being recorded to a SanDisk Extreme Plus 64GB. It's almost as if the phone can't keep up and it makes the end shot look terrible. Not to mention my auto focus is constantly readjusting and out of focus. Anyone else having similar issues and/or know a fix? Here's a quick example (warning a little loud).
