If I have to run something like this every time I record a video to fix it, that's asinine. I can't believe they would release a phone in 2011/2012 with such horrible video.

You'll get shaky video even in professional camcorders that's why the tripod was invented.

Fixed up that dog video, uploading now and we'll see how it came out.

Obviously, but this isn't the issue. There's actually something wrong. No video should be wavy, even if the person holding it is shaking.


Edit: It kind of reminds me of mouse acceleration


Edit: 15 minutes to go on the upload, but there's a HUGE thin X across the screen, damn trial versions!

Here's the after video for those who missed my post. Thoughts?

There is still some noticeable warping. But it doesn't look like the screen is tilting like it did in the original. Doesn't seem to fix the problem in my opinion.

I agree, that program is excellent in fixing camera shake though.


Also, my video broke the thread

Edit your post and delete the URL tags -- that should fix it.

If you hold still and shoot at one non moving object, then shake the phone some, you will notice, It has built in video stabilization. Not very good, but its there.

I can tilt my phone a few degrees left and right when looking at a tea cup that is two feet away, and the cup will not move at all.

Too bad there is no way to turn this "stabilization" off.

Thanks, but there's no URL tags

Huh... I'm seeing 'em when I click (Quote) and see your post. But maybe the forum software inserts those automatically. Oh well.

Edit: ok, here's the problem: you do have URL tags, but they should look like this (you'll need to click Quote so see them): Samsung Galaxy Nexus video test 2 - YouTube

I don't think what your seeing is camera shake exactly. It looks like the rolling shutter problem that some cameras that use CMOS chips instead of CCDs have.

Yeah. This.

The effect is due to a rolling shutter because it is a CMOS sensor.
This website has a good explanation of what is going on:
CMOS Rolling Shutter

I never said it was, I was just hoping that it would "calm" it down a bit. The program did what I wanted it to, but it's not worth the hassle to fix every single video.
