Droid Razr Maxx HD Post Jelly Bean Update - Better Camera Images Color!

[sheepbutts]

Wooo Jelly Bean finally arrived on my phone about an hour ago. I did some tests with the camera on HDR mode and in my opinion, the images turned out better! Have a look for yourself

This is prior to the jelly bean update

Why is the bottom one yellow?

I don't see a big difference.

One is sharper than the other but I bet it's caused by hand-shake and the white balance could have to do with the lights and cycling.

Fail.

Looks like white balance in the second picture is off. The first might have been with LED flash, the second was probably without.

Well, the lightning in my room more yellow than the florescent white bulbs. Both images were taken with the HDR mode in the same lighting.

Sheep, do you have a non-phone camera? If you do, could you snap this same shot with the camera so that we can get a more accurate representation of what the natural colors are?

I think I figured out why the 2 images had a different color. Take a look at the video. I wonderful if jelly bean did have any big effect on the camera though. Gosh I'm such a fail haha
Just for fun, here's a few I took in Chicago the other day

The skies really weren't blue, I guess the HDR added that in there but it looks nice

Basically the phone's tiny sensor can't auto-white balance fast enough for changing lighting condition so it lags when you point it at something like a light or your leg.

You can also see the camera you used to shoot the video do the same thing when you are flipping back and forth through the images.
