Honestly, this is one of my only gripes about the OP6T coming off of the Note 8. Double clicking the power button to launch the camera works fine, but is slightly slower. But going straight to take a picture takes a little longer and will likely have some blur with any movement. Gcam helps things but I have found even when I set it to the default camera, the phone still reverts back to the stock camera app after a few uses.

I am currently using a Galaxy Note Edge on Verizon (KitKat) and I am having serious issues with the Camera (which is supposed to be on-par or even better than one found in the iPhone 6).
I suspect these are software issues, so I'm hoping someone can tell me whether these issues get better with Lollipop (or whether there is an alternative camera app that is better optimized for the Note Edge)
The two most annoying things:
1) Unacceptably Slow Camera: When I take a picture with the Samsung Camera App, it takes at least 5-6 full seconds to see the picture I just took after tapping the thumbnail of said picture. It doesn't matter whether HDR is on or off, or whether I use the camera from the lock screen or home screen. I noticed that the delay is not as bad, but still bad, after taking a few pictures (it's then down to a still painfully slow 2-3 seconds)
2) Motion Pictures: The pics look fantastic, unless you have actual human beings in your picture that make movements or blink with their eyes. I'm not looking to take photos of race cars at dawn, but it would be nice to be able to take pictures of friends in a restaurant, for example.
Why can't the app chose a higher shutter speed for pictures with humans/moving objects in them? I'd rather have a slightly darker/grainier picture than a picture where faces are blurred like in the film "The Ring"....
I cannot comprehend how anyone would ship a flagship phone with these 2 issues, which are clearly software issues. SOMEONE at Samsung must have noticed this, no? It has a top-of-the-line quadcore processor and 3GB of RAM, for crying out loud. How is it possible that an iPhone 4 takes better 'motion' shots and accesses photos faster?
I know there are plenty of other Camera Apps available, but is there one that is perhaps optimized to address issue #2? This must be possible to improve with software optimization.
Same here. I don't remember it always being this slow.
I find it so slow to open the camera from the lock screen that I hardly ever bother. I took great pics with my lg g3, simply because the camera was super easy and fast to start.

I'm actually impressed with how quickly you can get to the camera with biometrics unlock, and the app itself launches almost instantaneously.
I'm a huge fan of this phones camera, I was really happy with the quality of the Note 5's as well... The tap tap power button to activate is what I usually use, combined with the embedded command to "shoot" Is pretty wizard! Low light seems to be alot better as well... Just not as fast, I always try and capture critters and the deer driving home

I'm trying to figure out how to enable portrait mode on the front facing camera. Soon as I select portrait mode it switches to the camera in the back and there's no way to switch it. Anyone know how?

Yeah same here..dunno how to do the selfie portrait.
I think it automatically does it. When I played with it at Verizon I took a selfie & it was in portrait style. Try that & see. Hope this helps
I think an update came through, because I had a similar problem but now it's working. Try again after checking the Play Store for an update and/or rebooting?
Yes, camera definitely needs to be updated in the Store for this.
Yeah mine is working now too. Guess something updated overnight.
What's a "Selfie?"
Update helped. Thanks for the heads up, guys! God the cameras are ridiculously fantastic!
Sometimes the selfie cam causes the screen to flash white and it's very laggy taking a picture. What's up with this. Is this supposed to be a flash or something?

Yeah check the right most option if you have flash set to auto/on.

Doggee mix 2
Does second rear camera on the back works? Is there any updates which made one of the rear shutter working? I'm doogee mix 2 owner and camera is pathetic. I am worried whether second shutter will work or not? And will camera results improve with the updates? And please let me know that he to turn off camera shutter sound and screenshot sounds a they are so annoying.
Has anyone experienced the camera on an Oppo Find X2 Pro at times to be extremely slow to take the shot? I basically press the shutter button and it takes a full second to then snap the shot. It's infrequent and seems to be present in lower light conditions but it's absolutely insane how it takes a full beat to capture the shot after hitting the button. I've never experienced anything like it in other phones and I'm just wondering if my device is faulty in some way. I bought it yesterday and have noticed it heats up a lot, even with just general use and thats something I'm not used to either. I can't seem to find any info on the Find X2 Pro experiencing camera issues or heating issues, it seems to get rave reviews where ever I look. It's certainly not my experience unfortunately.
I was just hoping to hear from anyone else who may have had this happen.
Yes, I sometimes run into this problem, too. It's really annoying. It mostly happens when I'm using the camera at home when the lighting conditions are not ideal but then again also far from bad or actually dimly lit.
The darker it is the longer it takes to take a good photo. The phone decreases the shutter speed to let in more light(auto night mode). Its annoying if u wanna take a photo of something thats in motion but if u keep the phone still it will take one of the best photos. You can use expert mode and set your own shutter speed but photos might look dark.
@cosmin94 well the thing is though that this behavior also seems to occur under lighting conditions that may not be ideal, but also far from a level where you'd think such a slow shutter speed is actually necessary. If I compare that to my old Samsung Galaxy S9+ under the same conditions it still takes quite okay photos in a much shorter time even though it has a much smaller sensor. So the Oppo should actually do much better than that considering...
