Default [Q] Camera Panorama Mode Resolution

So,
Can anyone tell me if the SGS 2 suffers from crappy panoramic photo resolution like the SGS 1 ?
It's such a nice feature working so well, but capped by resolution....

Cheers!
Galaxy Note II - Everything just works, and beautifully.

All camera in the market even dedicated ones doesnt use the full resolution in panorama modes.

Galaxy S2 is the same, low res.

might be best if you want full res to take multiple pis and place them into Photoshop panorama. not the quickest but the best results.

yah, it does indeed save it with poor resolution (go to the camera section of this review, there's a sample panoramic shot). I agree with NIK516, you're better off taking manual pictures and stitching them together in a 3rd party app if you want good quality panoramic shots

Aww Shucks! was really looking forward to some awesome and great mindblowing high res panorama shots. With the processor that Samsung put into this baby, thats not too much to ask, or is it ??

Nice thing about panorama mode (with Samsung Infuse at least) is that it utilizes both the built in compass and accelerometer to align the images correctly. Very nice! I have taken many panoramas by hand and stitched them together with 3rd party software but results are mixed when the camera is hand held.

So I also was bummed to find that this very nice feature in my Infuse is limited to minimum resolution. Hey, I used an app on my old HTC Touch Pro to tweak camera presets and increase resolution. Isn't there something similar for Android??

Maybe someone could make a mod on that feature ?

So it will have a better resolution.. that would be great!

I remember back in my Windows Mobile days there was a registry edit that would allow each image of the panoramic capture to be set to full resolution. Is there a tweak for Android?
