That way, it will save all three pics and you can pick the one that looks best. If you use HDR without that checked, it will only save the final combined pic, which will be blurry if there was any movement while the pics were taken.

ok ... that's awesome
but it's silly to shot 3 times to get what i need !
any other solution ?

the same problem happened again while using HDR camera !
one of the three shots didn't flash and other flashed once and the other flashed twice !!!

I don't have any other ideas except for experimenting with different camera apps. Actually now, after explaining the HDR process, I may actually do that myself from now on. It seems more likely to ensure a good pic out of four choices. I'll just have to adopt the practice of deleting the extra shots.

That is because the app purposefully takes three pics with different exposure settings... hence one with no flash, one with one flash and one with two flashes.

thnX for ur help :D

Your welcome! Not the best solution but one that hopefully works for now.

sorry but i got something
my version is 673.94.328 ME (stock ICS 4.0.4)
and my 2 other friends is 673.94.324 ME
we are all facing the same problem with camera using all camera apps !

My camera does the same thing. I have to close it and restart it for it to work right

r u a ME version ?

Mine does it too. I also just restart the camera and it works right. I have a problem when using video. It keeps trying to focus the whole time and it messes the video up. Even when i hold the phone in the same position while recording
