@bluelion,

Are you using it on Auto or Manual mode?

i tried every mode, in the morning, midday and night.

standing stil and moving. at the beach and in the desert.

its not raining here yet so that mode i didnt try. manual and auto. i even downloaded some other camera app from the play store and its the same.

u own a sony phone? how its your camera?

@bluelion,

I use the Xperia X Performance. It takes great photos.

It is difficult to identify if there is an issue with your phone. Are you able to upload an example video?

Also, do you have an SD card in your phone and are your photos being immediately stored to SD? If so, be aware that SD card is usually slower than the internal storage and that might be part of the issue.

i will try upload a video. and your phone camera its working properly?

im sorry, my english is not that good. maybe i am not expresing myself right.

its taking a sec to capture the frame. so if the frame is stil then its fine. but if i take a picture of my kid, i always miss the moment

thats the problem. i press to take the photo and after a sec it capture it.
