Hi,

i started on the official Sony Mobile support forum a Topic with the difference between Burst and Automatic Mode .

Here ist the link : Link : http://talk.sonymobile.com/message/445145#445145

Perhaps WE FROM THE XDA FORUM can write more reviews into the Sony Topic and perhaps Sony will see that they made a (i hope) software error !

We should show Sony the Way !!

I've already talked to a Sony dev and made them aware of the issue. They said they have already gotten other reports about it as well, but continue to let them know. The more people that complain about the issue the better.

Ok that's good .

How you say The more people write about this issue into the Forum of Sony Mobile the more will Sony see that the People aren't stupid :D

Don't know what you people are looking at, but pictures on my Z on burst mode come out disgusting. Loads of noise, no extra detail, they look absolutely awful. Just do not know what making normal pictures look like crap will do to help....

Simply put we need a sharpness and compression control setting like the HTC One, that's it.

i have a camera related issue but its not directed at burst mode, when I take pictures at night I get a blue tint at the bottom of the photo if im holding it in portrait and if I have it in landscape its obviously on the right hand side its not a subtle tint but a very dark tint and its pretty bad. anyone having the same issue?

the problem is that this is the second xperia z to have done this so if I am the only one this has happened to then I must be the unluckiest guy in the world to get two handsets with the same fault

Are you using flash?
Try again without flash

Looks like screen protectors are affecting the flash, this happened to me with protectors that came in the box.
no screen protector on it

lol its clean believe me I did my troubleshooting and I know its the phone mind you in daylight the photos can go head to head with a dslr they are absolutely amazing
The smoke truth is, the low light performance of the Z is only decent when you use night portrait in scenes. Try that and see if the quality improves.
Also I really don't know where all this talk of bust mode pictures being better comes from. For me they're are absolutely horrible. Noisy as hell and just unusable.
The only problem with the Zs camera is under low light, it's much improved if you use night portrait as I said but that's the only weakness I've found. In good light it smashes everything I've compared it to so far. IPhone 4S and 5 don't compare and my friends GS3 is no where close.
The Zs camera gets a bad rep because the Z gets a bad rep from the tech blogs. Sony is an outsider and I doubt they've greased many palms.

I've been comparing my xperia z to my blackberry z10 and the blackberry pictures are so much better. Same subject, one shot after the other. Sony really need to fix this. And quickly.
