Re: BlessN900 - better camera for N900
 

So I was having the same problem and went ahead and updated the kernal to 0.46 but the problem persists. Has anyone had the same issue and tried something to different that works? I would love to get this working!

I had the same issue. What fixed it for me was to re-install the camera drivers with dpkg. Just use dpkg to find the proper package name (I think it's fcam-drivers) and then tell dpkg to reinstall it (there's an over-ride flag, --reinstall I think). That and a quick reboot and all the camera apps were suddenly happy again.

first off, a huge THANK YOU to the developers for this great piece of software, it truly makes my n900's camera exceptional. i have but one feature request, that being: the ability to save the individual photos taken at various exposures while using the HDR function. the reason: i have software on my desktop specifically designed for post processing work and compiling HDR photos from a series of varied exposure shots. i realize i can use FCamera for this, but to be honest i prefer to use BlessN900 whenever possible. once again, i thank you for the great app and your time and consideration on this matter.

There is no way to adjust ISO manually in those modes, but why would you need that? You will unlikely achieve any quality improvement playing with ISO in those modes.

Re: BlessN900 - better camera for N900
 

You can use 'Exposure bracketing' mode for that. In this mode individual photos are saved with no creation of resulting HDR image. So you can then fuse HDR with desktop software (for example, with our desktop software PhotoAcute Studio)

haha. no doubt. what has two thumbs and asks n00b questions? this guy! i don't know how, but obviously i overlooked that feature. must have been cough up in the overwhelming awesomeness of all it's other features. thank you for taking the time to answer such a lame question.

tokag, no problem.
we are going to add even more modes soon, it will be easy to get lost :)

Re: BlessN900 - better camera for N900
 

Thanks for the help. I'm a little unfamiliar using dpkg though, and dpkg --help didn't really get me any farther. Can you paste the code here that you would use to reinstall the drivers? Sorry for being a noob.

Wuhu \o/ BlessN900 working again! Man, I love it :) I enjoy taking pics with it, especially HDR got extremely useful.
Yet I do have something I'd like to ask. In Blurless-mode, when I am taking pictures which are low-light conditions, I am getting funny-colored artifacts in some places. Is that what you refer to as "hot pixels"? I am not getting those in HDR-mode which is why I like it more, but then I am missing the awesome blurless option and superzoom.

But besides that, awesome add-ons of extra functionality and thanks for making my N900 a better cam than it was.

Just uhhh, I saw half a year ago you were also working on a video recording app on the N900. When will you release it? And will it include active focusing with maybe seemless switching of normal and night-mode?
Nice demonstration video btw :)

But hey, thanks again for the cool app and huge kudos for that.

Re: BlessN900 - better camera for N900
 

well, the thing is that the lower the ISO speed the less noise the pictures will have, especially the HDR images. You already know that. i was wondering if it would be possible to set the ISO speed at the lowest when taking a HDR. (i noticed that the ISO speed of a HDR i took at low light was 1600 and the picture was noisy. yes the light was dim but i had the phone on a stable surface, hence no need for the ISO to be that high)
and thanks fot this wonderful program.
