I'd like this also, I don't think the standard sony camera is that great. It's always in automatic modus and that doesn't do the job for me.

Is this possible with a rooted device? I'd like to fully move over to Google camera, but the lock screen shortcut and hard camera button still go to the stock camera.

On some roms there is a possibility to change the shortcut on the lockscreen, but not for the button.
I know that flashing htc camera on cm12.1 caused the camera button to launch htc's app.
