[TIP] Camera color temperature

[thevoiceless]

I haven't seen this posted anywhere, so I figured I'd share.

For some reason, I've found the camera on this phone to have a very cool (blue) color temperature when using the "auto" setting. However, switching to any other mode seems to fix it, as well as switching to HDR. I don't even know what the differences are between the modes, but they all seemed to give better results than "auto". The downside is that the setting doesn't seem to stick after exiting the application, except HDR mode.

Examples:
"Auto" mode
"Action" mode
HDR

Those were taken earlier today at about noon, with overcast skies.

By the way, Why all pictures are not the same resolution ?

Whoa...I have no idea, I hadn't noticed that. I took the pictures, uploaded them to imgur (using an app on my phone), and that was it. In the Gallery on my phone, it says they're 2448x3264. I bet imgur did some re-sizing.

You can also change it a bit using built in image editor.
