Camera setting - Enable video stabilization - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Does your Nexus 6P have an option to enable video stabilization on camera setting?
My friend has the option on his Nexus 6p but mine hasn't. We got exactly same model.

screenshot or it didn't happen

Mine has it. Did you get the latest update that just came? It may have been in there.

Does it actually make a difference in practice?

Honestly... no clue. I got the device today as I was on my way to work. I barely had a chance to play with it (read: I screwed up the unlocking/rooting process so left it at home) but definitely noticed the stabilization option wasn't there today.

EIS also does wonders though as shown by the Z5 camera software

I don't think so.

When I enabled video stabilization, I noticed the screen's FOV being reduced. Is it just using Youtube's stabilization method of taking a smaller rectangle out of the full frame and shifting it around? If it's using that method, I might as well turn it off and let Youtube handle it if needed, while still having the full-sized video.
Edit: Like in this comparison video of the 5X and 6P, you'll notice the 6P side is slightly zoomed in. youtu.be/HV4rcFuUlUc?t=240

Nothing here yet.

My phone also does not have the option under camera. My Marshmallow is also up to date.

I have it.

nexus 6p has digital IS. It does have image stabilization.

Here's a quick ugly video I just made showing the difference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTAH6gZQPJM

It looks like the quality really suffers when the stabilization is on. You can clearly see that it is less bouncy but it also has weird jello effect.
Does anyone know why some phones have this feature and some dont?
I don't have the option and my phone says that there are no software updates available.

I have it!

I got my 6P today and don't have it

Awful camera quality

Do you guys experience the same ? Pictures are not sharp, colors are mixed up.
only in darker rooms. outside with sun pictures are looking quite well.
look here: http://www.engadget.com/2010/10/29/htc-trophy-review/
Horrible quality.
As usual with HTC... always these "orange-pink blurry" images.
Nothing compared to the great Omnia 7 camera unfortunately.
Quality is indeed very bad:
Here's a picture taken with my Trophy:
http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/8599/wp000050.jpg
You can cleary see the pink/orange circle in the middle.
I hope they put a better camera in this when it comes across the pond to the us. I don't care about mp I want better quality
Yeah camera quality is quite awful. subpar when outside and when inside it's just horrible.
On another note are any of you noticing the 'GSM radio' sounds on video files you've recorded with the device?

i was in quite cloudy conditions and photos still looked good. i think it's just night shots or dark places that it falls over.

Too much noise. They are OK for a low budget phone, but I don't think that the Trophy is low budget (at least I payed more than 200€!)
Thanks for sharing
I'am having the same issue, only outside with clear weather it makes nice pictures. Also the flashlight is horrible, if you try to make a picture of a person it will always look away from the camera
I'm thinking of getting a trophy but I'm really put off by this pinky orange circle issue - does everybody experience this? Is it a hardware issue or could it be fixed by a future update?
Cheers
I have the red colorisation in the centre of the image also, not too fussed as I never use the phone to take pictures I use my Canon D450, if its that important that you need to use the camera for images then you can fix them images in Lightroom.
I got my HTC 7 trophy (australian stock) and think the camera is outstanding. Definitely the best non-iPhone camera phone I've used. Don't understand what all the fuss is about, really.
I have one and the camera is like my old htc p3600 in outsides when I use the flash the quality of the photo is bad with too much noise and blur.
I hope it is a software poblem and MS correct that in a future version!

Breaking bad is on Netflix in 4k. Wonder how long it'll be before the app will support it.

That's good to hear YouTube on this stop doesn't support the 4k tech? And I've been watching the breaking bad binge marathon every Sunday

You realize you can't show off the quality of the display via a screen shot. This needs to be experienced first hand.
To my untrained eye the panel on my G3 looks good in general , too bad for the sharpening though which is noticeable in some cases.
Web video looks good in general, but I won't go as far as to say that a 1080p display would be very bad (thinking about the G2 for example). The best content on this phone was content that shipped (the sample videos) and I copied a random 4K sample on it for kicks.

Galaxy S6 Edge 4k Video

So in this video I used a tripod which took some amazing video. But I also took 4k video while driving (I was not driving) and the camera did a good job at keeping a still video. There was still a lot of movement but it shows less in the video then there actually was. I captured mainly movement to see how the camera could keep up with it.
You can watch the video here:

I thought that the OIS actually takes over solo. The software optimization for it does not work but the actual hardware OIS works in that modeZ? maybe im wrong

I took about 10 minutes in total of video. Had battery saver off and used the phone to the max that whole day. Came out with about 4 hours of on screen time. Brightness at about 40%.

Correct, OIS is always on regardless, but EIS disables with 4K and 60fps modes.
Ois is always on guys it's a hardware not a software only the software stabilization doesn't work.... ois always on and u can see the lens move as soon as u begin recording

I noticed it was kicking in when I was in the car. Seemed move steady then what I thought it should be. The road was a bit more bumpy than it looked.
wow. Its good.

Rear Flash use on 8 MP and 16 MP

Wondering if anyone noticed the light bleed on the 8 MP when using the rear flash. Anyone else have this problem. I am thinking this is a design flaw. Attached is the same picture showing the issue. The issue is not there on the 16 MP.

Kinda funny, after I read this I noticed as well with the 8mp. The 16mp was fine as you stated.
Probably the shutter speed is different and lg didnt make the proper software adjustment.

Definitely a software bug that LG needs to fix.
Sent from my LG-H990 using Tapatalk
Dont think LG cares too much about bugs.
It happens on oreo too?
I think It may be because the flash is right next to the 8mp itself and that is the issue. Software will not fix as V20/V30 cam apps both do this.
If thats the problem, lg should lower flash intensity when using the 8mp cam.
There are phones with the flash near the cam without this problem.
It's just nonsense to leave it as is.
If you change the objects distance when taking the picture, the bleed will change. This is a sympton of an out of sync flash/shutter.

To further test I tried gcam as well and it did the same. So 3/3 so far lol. Your fix idea would make sense. At least it's only the 8 tho - with flash. If the 16...I would not be happy at all.

I not sure they would care. Might be fixed in later phones, but this is a no go for them. They will just say to update firmware blah blah. Only way for a possible software fix is if someone knew how to do that flash dimming for 8mp.
Maybe can Mcgiver it and put small piece of rolled tape between flash and 8mp and see if that helps. Just an idea.

Might be a flaw in the glass cover over your cameras. Mine has no such bleeding or reflection.
Mine works fine too.
Guess it does depend on glass type or phone model

From what I feel before and after this update, white balance issue seems to be fixed, photos taken isn't too warm anymore.

It was a statement officer.
I can see more improvement to autofocus, less over sharpening effect, better image quality when zooming.
One bad thing I noticed regarding stabilization magnets. They seem not to hold the sensor when using the phone. Lens makes a lot more noise [rattling] even though I'm not using the camera. Very annoying.
Not sure if it's a defect on my unit or something that this update caused.
I'll try to shoot a short video in a different thread about the issue.
new firmware already released in China ATD1 with more improvements
waiting for it in EU.

That was noticed by a number of people as soon as the phone was launched, it's annoying to have that rattle if you shake the phone but it seems standard and not a fault.

Yes totally aware about the rattling noise due to IOS. But after the update it seems louder than before. Is it due to the zoom improvement via firmware? Not sure.
In any case I think it should be easy to develop a tiny app to activate the magnets at all time (same as when opening the camera app). Might drain the battery a bit but that rattling is very annoying. I'm ok to trade 5% of battery drain to suppress the noise.
Those of you who got the ATCT fimrware update on exynos, can you try something out?
Pls take a pic of a white wall, indoor, dim indoor lighting, using night mode. Does it come out darker than it is or looks normal?
