Camera button problem and work around

[yunlin12]

Initially it seemed to me the camera button is not very responsive. I can get it to start the camera app, but could not for the life of me take a photo. I found that clicking the trackball is much more responsive, it always takes a photo, but there is no way to do the pre-focus (green dot on screen), it just focuses and takes a photo right after, it takes about 2-3 seconds.

I then found out that if the screen is slid open, the camera button becomes much more responsive. Give it a solid push takes a picture just like clicking the track ball, without pre-focus. Touching it lightly starts the pre-focus function, and clicking it again solidly takes a picture within 1-2 seconds. I got this result at night indoors with some lighting, but bright enough to read comfortably. I hope there is something in the software that makes the camera button unresponsive with the screen closed, and not an issue with the HW.

Im hoping in a update soon that they give us some kind of digital zoom and lighting support like my dash had (not an app, built in to the os). That thing took great pics and it didn't have a flash either!! it did ok with vids too I actually got a ufo on video over the balleys casino with that, not once but twice withen 48hrs! laugh all you want but I still have the copies with my crane in the video! but anyways I bet its a software thing with the button.
