Default Pictures and Camera improvements.

Well i had a play with my uncle's iPhone along side my THD and the bigest issues was how unresponsive the THD was at the Picture scrolling and Camera response.

Has anyone tried/started to fix the camera Application and HTC Album?? there is a second wait between pictures on scrolling and about 5 seconds on taking a photo.

I'm almost afraid someone will have to do a total rewrite of the phone app to get it to a normal response time from pressing the button to taking a shot. It's rediculous as it is now; the cam is totally worthless for taking anything but still shots of non-moving things like buildings; taking shots of people right now is just ...worthless.

Which sucks

We did 2 shots and a slight movement blurs. the iPhone doesn't but you clearly can see the camera is better quality on the HD.... as to the picture viewer is there anything that can replace it???

picture viewer: well, there's xnview, but I have to say that Album works better, IMO...as long as you realise you zoom in by drawing different size clockwise circles on the pic, zoom out by drawing different sized counter-clockwise circles and pan by touch-and-holding the screen.
