No, you need a SLR camera to do multiple exposures. Its not possible with any phone I know of.

Also, I don't think this photo is a "real" multiple exposure photo; but rather I suspect its a collection of pics Photoshopped together into one image.

Reason I say this, is for true multiple exposure photos, the subject appears transparent and ghost-like. The biker is a bit small to see in this photo, but he appears pretty opaque. Also, since the jump would have occurred over maybe 2 seconds or so, any movement of people or objects in the frame during this time would also be "ghosted" or blurred. See the following linked multiple exposure photo as an example. Note not only how the gymnast is transparent, but a few of the faces in the audience are blurred. There would be more blurred faces, but this sequence probably was just a fraction of a second (less time for object in the background to move, therefore less blurring):

http://thefabweb.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/Multiple-exposure-Photos-of-Olympic-Gymnasts-08-634x746.jpg

In the biker photo you attached, absolutely nothing in the frame except the biker appears as a multiple image or blurred. Not a single person, the water, the leaves. Its a bit small to see it all, but that's what it looks like to me. Plus, the exposure for a shot like this would very tricky, as you would be opening the shutter/sensor many times in broad daylight, and overexposure would be an issue. Its simply too clear and perfect to be a true multiple exposure shot.

Now I'm no photo expert, by any means. I just dabble in photography. But I know a thing or 2; or at least how to spot some obvious PhotoChop jobs (but these types of images are cool, nonetheless).

Interesting, I stand (partially) corrected, as I was not even aware of this feature! Won't be exactly the same as the photo that was previously attached (as I mentioned, its mostly likely a PhotoChop) but a similar effect might be achieved with some patience and care.

First post here!!!

I got my M8 at the beginning of July. It's camera, I don't know, sparked a fire in me

I then started a fun project/hobby called "Photo art". If such a "genre" of photos exists, but it was definitely something I thought on my own.

The project idea is: If we called photography is art, then why do we limit this

art

with constraints like contrast, noise, exposure and other stuff which defines photography.

I don't mean to offend anyone's views with this! And I assure you, I'm a super big fan of photography too. But this is what I wanted to try with something I've been thinking about. I'll post some images here. I have just started, so I hope to add much further to this! I'm loving this camera!

My Flickr profile

I'm sorry, but for some reason, uploading my images is giving error on XDA website (never happened before). Hope you can enjoy the images on Flickr with your best screen! :D

Is there an app that deals with noise better than HTC cam app? Or maybe manual settings would help. The reason why in asking here is mini 2 have the same manual mode as m8. Many thanks

Hello everyone!

I am a relatively new owner of the M8, but really into dslr photography. I was experimenting with manual mode but i noticed that every time that I set the exposure in over 2 secs the camera becomes really laggy and many times it just closes-no FC error, just closes.

in order to make it work again sometimes I have to kill the app and open it again, unless I change mode quickly before it closes again. Is this normal? Does it happen to anyone else or just me??

Any help would be appreciated,

KR,

Thanos
[One (M8) General] Andrewtst:
The camera look lag in slow shutter is common. But close itself I never face.
[One (M8) General] NightOrchid:
Taking a break from WP8 Ive come to the M8 from a Lumia 1020, for the great audio and the lovely M8 package. The S5 just semed like an overpriced S4.

Like the Lumia 1020, taking photos on Auto mode is just rubbish. You have to learn how your camera works and play with the settings. The 1020 is not a DSLR and Nokia didnt design it that way, because you cant adjust the apature, so you have to learn to use that particular model in order to get round it.. and to me the M8 is no different.. it has a great feature rich interface and modes.. ISO, shutter speed, EV.. and so on... and on Auto.. the results will just be mediocre at best because your not setting the camera for the light conditions at hand.. but tweak it and itll give some lovely results.

Ok I accept it'll never be Nikon standards, but this is the problem with society these days.. many people in our world are looking for the comfort zone, the quick fix and are not prepared to put the effort in to learn new things because technology does it all for us, some people would rather sit and waste all their energy procrastinating about why its bad.. rather than channel that energy into learning what it is their complaining about.

In short, I like the M8 shots when using Manual mode, on Auto.. its just awful. Yes the M8 Is not perfect, even less so when zooming.. but its workable because I make it work for me by setting it up to work for me according to the light and subject.

The M8 is good if your prepared to put the effort into learning basic photography and learn your gear, and i think this is what HTC are aiming for.
[One (M8) General] velenox:
Happened to me as well. ISO 200 and 2.5 shutter speed.

Sometimes as you said you can overcome this issue changing the exposure very quickly, sometimes it just remain stuck or force close.

[One (M8) General] references:
Is it only me but did the camera software got more laggy and manual mode downgraded after updates? I used to take manual shots with expose time 1-4s, before updates it showed live in the viewfinder whats going on so you could take a snapshot when the contidions are right for you, but now the viewfinder shows something with 1/9s exposure timing and iso 400, eventhough if i had iso 100 and exposure timing in 4s, when you press shutter it says "please hold device steady" and takes the picture after 1-4s.. so you dont actually see what you are taking with 1-4s exposure times anymore..

[One (M8) General] HtcOneJon:
Reviewers change their tune once a phone is out. I remember seeing the previews and every single hands on photo test made out it was the best camera phone. To be fair the tests I saw convinced me and i've not seen much since to convince me there is an all round better phone camera out there overall for all types of shot.

The fact that this phone competes at all with phones of 8mp up to 20mp is absolutely incredible work by HTC and gets lost in everyones discussions. It's voodoo magic plain and simple.

What i've found is that for any kind of daytime outdoor landscape shot you want to look at on your phone, computer, on a 5x7 photo or on a 42 inch HD tv, the HTC One takes the best looking photo's i've ever seen, even compared with the Lumia 1020, which looks no better on the above media.

As for night and party type shots, it's the only camera phone I have used (and i've used almost all of the ones of note), that takes action shots and decent low light shots of moving subjects clearly without blur, which is the only other type of shot i'd take.

Of course others may disagree and probably will, but aside from a lack of zooming capability this phone is amazing for photos.

All this from a 4mp camera makes me hope they abandon super thin phones and include 8mp phones in future! :D
[One (M8) General] RSK01:
I was really upset when I found out this new "feature" too. The manual mode preview was one of the best feature I like on the phone. I hope HTC will put it back.

I liked the most of the mods from Jishnu, except the one he did for manual, where you cannot select shutter speed between 1/100 to 4s. Not too sure if the new version V3 has the capability.

Was there ever a V3 released?
[One (M8) General] RSK01:
One of the factors that prevent us smartphone camera users to take this kind of photos is the inability for us to control aperture (f-stop). Playing around with ISO was not giving the desired result.

Has anyone tried sticking a neutral density filter (or a dark piece of glass) to the lens to slow down the shutter speed significantly. Please post your results.... Or is HTC able to come up with a reduced sensitivity mode so we can prolong shutter speed in broad daylight to 1 or 2 secs.... Just dreaming.... Maybe it it as simple as putting the ISO setting to 50, 25, 10, 5 .....Just dreaming....

I know the M8 is no DSLR, but I don't mind having a slightly thicker phone, with 8 or more ultra pixels, with extension like the one x, but having slightly more zooming capability coupled with the longer exposure time limit at daylight... That would be .... A dream....
