Xperia Z3 :: Camera Button Loading (auto Superior / Manual Mode)
Jul 3, 2010
I'm positive this has been brought up before, the camera button is only able to load up in auto superior mode which is great for basic quick camera needs but for users who want to use the camera to its full potential (20.7 MP) you need to shoot in manual mode. It seems like a simple addition to the camera which would allow everyone to use the camera app how they prefer. Is there a fix coming for this, is there a setting I'm missing? Seems silly to put a good camera in a phone and have it so inaccessible.

The Superior Auto/Manual camera app is not loading, and becomes unresponsive. Here's a screen shot when opening the camera app:
Diagnostic reports the camera as fine, is able to take photos with flash. Other modes such as 'Background Defocus' etc are running fine, as is instagram etc. I tried switching from 'Defocus Background' to Superior Auto/Manual/4k Video etc and the app becomes unresponsive again as above.
I've cleared app data and caches for the 'Camera' and 'Cameras' in app settings. Tested in Safe Mode, and have just done a factory rest of my Z2 which has not resolved the issue.

Was set to auto but kept getting "welcome to the Isle of Man" from O2 roaming! Which was wanting to charge for being abroad. Is there any way of setting to auto but not allowing networks abroad?

Every time I choose a scene mode and go back to manual mode the settings gets reset. (i.e. focus mode, ISO, metering mode.) It is annoying to set it everytime. Why can't the app remember my settings.

When I use manual mode in camera, tripod icon and macro icon doesn't show when i use tripod or shoot a macro object. But the icons show when i use superior auto mode. Did all you have the same behaviour ? or it's just my phone ? My device is Z5 Premium Dual ....

How to use manual mode for pictures and video? Obviously I don't know much about photography. Also, how to take good pictures when the subject is in motion? Auto mode definitely isn't working for that...

I've bought my Xperia Z2 few days ago and have strange issue - my camera button doesn't work in every mode. I can open camera app by holding button but can't take any picture in auto mode. Button works in 4K video, Timeshift video, AR effects, Timeshift burst mode. I didn't check Vine, info-eye and social live modes only. I can take pictures by touching the screen button in every mode.

In Nokia Camera,
1) In Camera Mode:----
OIS works with Auto Focus
OIS works when we manually set focus to infinity
But OIS doesn't work when Focus is on Manual.
However In Video mode,
OIS works in all 3 cases, i.e. OIS works whether focus is Auto or to infinity or Focus is Manual.
Let us request Nokia to look into this matter and release an update to Nokia Camera app to fix this issue.

I bought my Xperia x10i 2 weeks ago and got the manual update to android 2.1 from SE service centre and I rebooted the phone and now just tried using the camera and guess what, it says Camera Not Available.

I am using my Z3 camera app in Manual mode, and the option to turn on HDR is greyed out. Searching didn't yield any known issues.

I have now paid a premium price for the Xperia Z5 Premium, only to discover that this "Premium" phone does not allow manual exposure settings. Not even after upgrading to the new hyped up camera app V2.

Given the arrogance you (Sony Mobile) are showing towards your customers I am gonna assume you are still not going to listen to your users, and you are not going to reply to this thread, you may even delete it to avoid unnecessary attention to the subject.

After the V2 upgrade taking so long, and still no manual exposure, I find it highly unlikely we will ever get manual exposure settings on the Sony Xperia series. I will sell my Xperia Z5 premium and get myself an LG G4.

My N82 while taking pictures focuses properly in macro mode. (Green rectangular box). Other than macro mode I can see only red rectangular box (indicating improper focus?) and the photo seems to be blurred. Macro mode photos seems to be good. Even if I put camera settings to 'Auto' I am getting red rectangular box most of the times instead of green. Software or hardware fault?

Is there no way you can turn off the auto rotate from the quick settings when in landscape mode? It only seems to do it in portrait...

I want to add GSM auto (PRL) network mode menu along with WCDMA only,GSM only,WCDMA (preferred)/GSM modes. Right now I access GSM auto (PRL) mode by *#*#4636#*#* and select set preferred network type in phone information menu. I need to reboot my mobile if I want to switch other mode.
Is it advisable to use GSM auto (PRL) mode over WCDMA (preferred)/GSM mode.
Is there any App available for this to switch between network modes.

A friend is having troubles with his Z3 : He used to take pictures with the quick camera launch button, but since a recent camera or system update, when he use this button, the camera is set to automatic mode instead of manual, with poor resolution and quality settings. If he launches the camera with the standard button from the phone menu, everything is fine and perfectly set up.
When the camera is used from the quick button and set back to the correct quality settings and manual mode, after closing it, it goes back to auto mode with bad settings. Same thing when he slides the camera icon from the locked screen. The only way to get the proper settings when launching the camera is to use the icon from the phone's menu.
He tried a lot of things, from uninstalling the camera updates to searching everywhere on the internet, there is no information or messages about this problem.

The Xperia Z3 compact camera is shutting off automatically after some time. How to disable this? The Google camera app does not do this so it is software issue.

Suddenly my camera lost auto focusing. Marco icon will appear no matter where you try to focus, and it hangs (looks like waiting AF to complete) if you actually take a picture. Then CPU goes to 100% as you can feel the back is burning up.Â

I have recently got a xperia z5 and found out that the camera is only in landscape and can't seem to change to auto rotate so can take pictures vertical or landscape. I hope that I don't have to always take pics in landscape.

I have been trying to synch my Phone 5c with Itunes manually - I have checked Manually Manage Music and checked Synch Selected Songs only, but every time I hit synch, it starts synching my entire library.

I just got a new Z3, and the auto focus on the main camera isn't working. I can hear a click when I open the app, or when I switch from the front camera to the rear one - is that a normal sound? I changed the camera settings, cleared the app data, tried using Google Camera, and even reset the phone. Is there anything else I should try? Is my camera defective?

My main idea of purchasing Xperia Z2 was the 4K video facility. It attracted me a lot..but once i started using it...quality is just acceptable and the continuous auto focus is really annoying...even when nothing moves in the frame the camera just make it focus again and again...this makes some worst videos after all.

since several weeks the phone does not enter into the overview mode after I clicked on the messages button on the frontpage. Instead of this the phone opens the message I have received at last und starts the edit mode.

it's just a 1 month since I purchased z3, but after an update my camera button not responding. Did a factory reset but still not working. Initially it worked. Now if I click during camera mode, just a flash comes on first click and on second long click it does nothing. Really upset and never expected this from Sony. I hope developers r reading this.
