No lag in launch and shutter at all.

takes 1 second from lock screen to camera then to take a picture. Its fast

It's pretty bad according to my experience. A lot of digital noise that I don't take photos as often anymore. and what's sad is it's all on the software end

I think you mixed up camera quality and camera speed topics there...

For me it's really bad... Sometimes takes 2 seconds to open camera and then the camera viewfinder needs 2 more seconds to load.

It's pretty darn fast, whether to load or to shoot, click and done.

For me is pretty fast, test:
1. Reboot phone and wait for auto screen off
2. Double press Power button
3. Capture photo using VolUp key
Time needed between 2 and 3 is only 1sec

not so fast for me after the latest V2.2 update

I'm using these steps too and it takes hardly 2 seconds. I stopped at 1.91 seconds.

Love the double-tap home button action to open the camera app. I find myself taking more pictures because I can snap a picture so insanely fast. Love it.
Camera app is great!
What can I say about how fast you can open the camera app? The phone comes with the default setting of hitting the home button twice. The camera app launches fairly quickly, not at formula 1 speeds, but fast enough for you to take a quick photo or video. Good job Samsung
The camera launches in under a second: I tried to shoot a stopwatch launched simultaneously with first tap on Home button, and there was 0.96 on the quickest shot I made.

Yeah I love it. Double tap power button and voila.
The camera launches very quickly with a double tap of the power button and the time between shots is very good too. Love this camera.
If some police brutality starts going down in front of you, you'll be recording before the cop can draw his gun (yes, that quick!).
Maybe one of you guys who already has a Note 8 can help me... I have a S7 but I have some complain about its pictures.
For example, I have never took a photo of my child which her hands aren't blurred because of the movements. In my past iPhone 6+ this kind of stuff didn't happen.
What about the Note 8 camera performance in this kind of situation?

Depends on the light and the light gathering power of the lens. In bright light the shutter speed is quite short and blurring should not be a problem. In dim light with a "slow" lens the chance of blurring is higher. Note 8 has an f/1.7 lens which is very fast. This is also the f/# of the S7. At some point it may be dim enough that there will be unavoidable blurring because the shutter speed has been adjusted to collect enough light. You can try to adjust the ISO to make the shutter faster, but there may be some image "noise" speckles.
The speed from pocket to shooting is lightning fast! Very pleased with it
I am amaze at how fast the camera app launches on the Note 8.
Coming from Xperia series (my last one was XZ) and I'm really impressed by the speed that camera launches on Note 8. If it had dedicated camera button like Xperia phones, it would be perfect.
Nova launcher/double tap screen/open camera.

If you have a rooted phone you could edit the keylayout, I did this and now my Bixby button is my camera button.
Here are the steps and other options:
1. Download and install*Root Explorer*or equivalent app capable of exploring root directories.
2. Open the app and navigate to*/ > System > usr > keylayout.
3. Rename the Generic.kl file to Generic.txt.
4. Open the file you just renamed with a text editor.
5. Use the quick search function of the text editor to search for “703“. You should land on a line showing:
"input_fw Intelligent*Key*for Dream*key*703 Wake or WINK"
Now you can change WAKE or WINK, to the next words for the next actions:
VOLUME_DOWN– Sets volume down
VOLUME_UP– Sets volume up
HOME– Home button
POWER– Power menu
MUSIC– Starts your favorite music player
CAMERA– Starts camera app
APP_SWITCH– Recent apps button
VOICE_ASSIST-Google Assistant
6. Rename Generic.txt back to Generic.kl. If you skip this step, you won’t be able to use the hardware buttons after the restart.
7. Make sure that you have the appropriate permissions.
8. Restart your device and see if it’s working.
Not happy with the speed of clicking shots, especially when it is in "live focus" mode. It takes awful lot of time clicking between different shots, and most of the time it gets blurred or the specific moment i want to capture is missed due to the lag between shots. sometimes i keep tapping the button to take a shot, and it hardly responds. Device also starts heating up a lot after few mins of keeping the camera open.
Compared to my last few phones (Note 3, ZTE Axon 7, Essential Ph-1), the Note 8 (SM-N950f Exynos) camera is amazingly faster to launch. I installed the the bxactions app and assigned the Bixby button to open the camera, and it is terrific. Shots are taken very quickly compared to my previous phones, and HDR is processed MUCH more quickly. Camera records video straight to SD card with no issues. The only problem is the 10 minute limit on 4k video, which is an arbitrary and unreasonable software limitation of the Samsung camera app.

it actually bothers me.. from clicking the capture to having the photo saved it takes a good 1 second.
This in turn translates in blurry , shaken, lost moments.
Try this: click the capture then drag your phone. The photo will be from while you drag your phone. I tried a lot of apps, all are consistent to this problem.
The app opens almost instantly. the main shooter is very fast and saves pics fast. the Tele lens is making you wait like 3 seconds! and the portrait is taking forever to take one photo you have to wait like 4 - 5 seconds to take another one.
The video is also **** cause of the dropped frames and its not even 60FPS!
Hope an update will fix all above

Really fassst
Just a little over 1 second. And that 1 second is actually the camera app's opening animation, so basically you can hit that Shutter button almost instantly as it appears. Its that fast.
Haven't tried burst mode (if there's any), but for Portrait mode, there's slight delay when the phone is saving the image before you can take another shot.
And in NightScape mode, you need to hold the phone for 2-3 seconds before moving away from the subject, and another 2-4 seconds to wait the image saving process. The result really worth the wait, though.
Update: Burst Mode works by holding the Shutter button, and the app will count from 1-10 (within less than 2 seconds) when taking images. After 10 shots, the Burst will automatically stops. In Gallery app, there will be icon denoting that an image is from Burst Mode. When you tap it, you can choose 1 or some or all photos to be saved.

It's pretty good!
I think the camera speed is average. Don't get me wrong - I love the OnePlus 7 Pro's camera('s), but there are some things related to the camera speed which aren't on par with other phones (flagships). The stock camera app takes about 1 - 1.5 seconds to open, which is not bad at all and is not my problem. The only issue I have is with the shutter speed: it takes just a 'millisecond' more to 'click' than I'd like it to. This doesn't stop me from taking photographs of high quality, but I have noticed that when I'm taking a selfie and I can't hold it still enough, it just has this annoying blur. Not too much to absolutely ruin, the picture, but it's there and noticeable. That being said, I wouldn't want to get another phone at all - I love it and the camera's on it, and the blur can absolutely be avoided by just not moving at all, even though that is hard to do and some phones do a better job of avoiding it.
I'm happy with the speed. I use the double press power button feature and the camera is open very fast.

I've noticed this on the stock camera app, Gcam works way better in this situation though, so it's a software issue
