Until today I have no idea how to shoot nice photos with my Note II. I basically gave up on it. Some say Note II produces nicer photos than S2 but based on my own experience, my Note II's photos are not anywhere like my friend's S2.

Even my aunt also has issues in snapping nice photos on her S3.

I'm not sure what exactly is the issue, played with the settings but seems like nothing works well. The only reason I could think of is most of the time I shoot indoor.

These days I have no choice but to bring my 5D+L lenses for my travels (even though a short one), Note II just doesn't do any justice for me. laugh.gif

In short, I'm noob. laugh.gif

Indoor shots tend to suck. My outdoor pics nice or not ?  tongue.gif

I think you need to hold the phone very steady for indoor shots otherwise blur pics result. Trying to take pics of your niece all the time?

Nah, not my niece's photos. Even a normal still subject is already making me headache with it.
Guess I'm not so much a phonegrapher. laugh.gif
I better stick back to the conventional way. biggrin.gif

Indoor photos require good natural lighting. The flash is hopeless.

Note 2 and S3's metering system is unbrainable.

Matrix is pointless.
Spot, you can't select the point you want the camera to set the exposure.
Only center is brainable, which pretty much all metering modes are center.

Thou flashing to CM10.1 allows you to tap to focus and adjust exposure with their camera app.

If that's the case, I might move to the dark side. laugh.gif

What is the dark side? CM10 ?

My own definition, anything that is not TW based. tongue.gif
CM is not TW based right?

((Xa))0102, learn how to add spoiler when posting humongous photos.
I have added for you this time.

And most of the time, the flash just makes things worse.
If it is my Canon 580EX II, that's perfectly fine because it makes my life easier. rolleyes.gif

Note II's flash sometimes makes things overexposed. laugh.gif

But again to be fair, it is just a phone.

For those on Perseus, especially those that change the screen colours and etc. I'm also one of them, do you notice that also affects your camera quality? I mean the colours and etc.

Yeah.. It's still a phone.
Gave up on all possibilities of using the phone camera for good quality photos laugh.gif

It is sungguh menggeramkan. laugh.gif
Sometimes just want to take some acceptable quality of food photos using my phone, that also disappoints me. laugh.gif

My expectation is at least 70% of the photos' quality (in term of sharpness, colours, brightness and etc) I posted here: https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2071944&hl= and https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2054419&hl=

Exactly, I guess I'm not alone then.
Which current smartphone (5.5" and above) that takes good photos?

What are you talking? It is the same thing, just that the owner changed the domain. I think got hacked or something. doh.gif
