does XPERIA L really holds a good camera and is its camera better than neo l mini j u lww,
what about the exmore sensor
does it produces a good quality image.will CAMERA FV5 work on it.
i want to confirm before buying my first xperia
The camera is really good, you can see some samples on general thread. However, video recording is not so good, since the camera really lags with low light enviroinments. I think a custom rom will solve this problem

The best on the Xperia L Camera is the HDR mode, which comes without 3 Pictures and long processing times. :good:

I did a mini tutorial teaching the correct slowness even in environments with low lighting!
'Do what your fps will be high!
Open the camera> select video camera mode> choose scene soft snap> va Settings and choose the 176x144 resolution> then choose the resolution hd.
All done without any lag!'

The image quality is better the price of this device
To b honest i find XL camera to be worse than many 5 MP camera.. I don't understand why it happen.. So i m wondering is there any camera mod from any good camera phones around..?
I dont prefer playstore apps as they don't provide anything better than the stock app..
Thanks in advance

well,camera is decent.it's kinda below average when taking photos at night.the object must stand still,otherwise the photo will be blury.the rest of time,it's good.I also use camera jb+,it's a little better than stock at focus imo.I don't know if there'll be any camera ports since camera it's like a very fragile object in a phone.it can cause many erros and can easily be broken.btw,did you updated to 2.17?
Thanx for replying
Yes i did update my device to the latest version.. But still it is not that good..
When i browsed through sony Xperia z themes and apps thread i could find a Lenovo camera port for XZ.. Hope something like that wil happen for XL too..

There is some good shots in here from the stock Camera.

Everything I read though is that it needs good light. Outdoor shots with it have been pretty good so far for me.
Yeah i get it.. Good lighting is essential

Sorry man! I think that is an hardware issue!

If you're on 2.17, you can try downgrading to 1.36. Older firmware is way sharper

Hey Bro!!
Sony Is Known For Sound And Camera!!!
And Sony Advertised This Mobile By Saying Camera For Experts!!
Thus, It Confirms That Camera Issues Are Not Hardware Issues But Software Ones!!!
So, Wait For The Updates!!!
Sony Has Improved Their Update Services!!!
So Just Wait!!
STOP THIS!
I am no camera freak and I didn't noticed any difference between 2.17 and 1.36.I really believe that 2.17 is better due to video not lagging in low light(even if there was a fix on 1.36,it's more comforting this way).I didn't noticed any differences between photos and I don't waste my time looking for the issues.The only things that annoys me are low light photos & video "flashing" in some specific light conditions.But I accepted it,I know I can't do **** about it and I'm waiting for devs to create other android platform based roms or Sony to update our phone and hope it will get better.
So,stop this.The camera is the way it is and some settings won't do any magic and bang,the camera will work as you wish.

Looks interesting, not compatible with my device from the google play store. Even though it's an Xperia L and 4.2.2 ?

Here is another thread about it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728482
It doesn't install on our stock firmware, because we didn't get it with Sony's Smart Social Camera. Maybe this will work when you flash that to your phone first.

Bizzare Sony quoted this for the Xperia L
The camera experts’ camera phone
If camera engineers made a smartphone, what smartphone would they make? The answer is Xperia L, the Android mobile designed with Sony’s leading camera expertise.

Yet we don't get this app or an update to 4.3. Just the social camera would be fine.

Sony should update the info for Xperia M
"If camera engineers made a smartphone, what smartphone would they make? The answer is not the Xperia M, the Android mobile designed without Sony’s leading camera expertise."
Sony say, Let's update it to 4.3 and give it a social camera!
Whereas the actual Xperia with a camera designed by Sony’s leading camera expertise gets 4.2 and no social camera. Honestly the focus and lag is rubbish. My iPhone 4 is better and that's years older.
Thanks Sony!
The focus is much better in Xperia L but Sony camera software is really bad. GO TO Facebook page of xperia l, a person merged libraries of xperia m in L and he have got amazing results

Have you used an iPhone 4? Basically it focuses and when you press the shutter, the photo is taken, no blur.
The Xperia L, focuses, looks great, you press the shutter and the phone refocuses, so really great if you take photos of something that is stationary (building, landscape) but useless for anything which moves slightly.
I have a 17 month old boy and it's nearly impossible to take photos blur free, with the iPhone, nearly every photo is perfect. I will post one from each so you can compare. I got the xperia L to replace the iPhone 4. Unless Sony do something with the software, it's going on eBay.

The focus of the XL is a problem. Touch to focus works, but press the shutter and it refocuses. It takes me several tries to get the actual focus I want. This is more apparent when trying to shoot on macro or close moving objects.
I really don't know what's wrong with Sony's software team.
Honestly it's useless as it is.
The annoying this is, Exmor-R, Exmor-RS sensors are in iPhone, Samsung phones and they take amazing photos but the actually Sony phones suck. Definitely a software issue as using the google camera app the camera focuses and take a photo (rather than refocusing).
Well said my brother

It won't install on our XL. Its an addon for sony smart camera and will be available for those mobiles which got the smart camera app. Thank you sony for leaving us and fooling us. I think this might be my last sony smartphone. You are worst at customer support. Even XM has got 4.3 and smart camera app but we with 8mp camera are left alone and no sign of update.
Really annoying sony.
Hi, as we all know this phone has good sensor (similar to previous sony xperia z series) but the pictures are still not that good.
Can u guys suggest any good camera apps u have tried, which takes better pictures compared to stock app.
