Camera has focus problems after update to eOS v1.15

[AnotherElk]

I’m trying to reproduce this on my Fairphone 3 running /e/OS 1.15-s-20230916331435-dev-FP3, but I’m failing so far.

@Tryrildoth

• I start the Camera app from the launcher
• I have set “Focus Auto”
• I tab on the screen to pick the area of the picture, which should be “in focus” (= sharp)
• focus is “pumping” a little bit, trying to find the best lens settings
• the tabbed area seems to be sharp in the preview
• but the tabbed area is surrounded by a red rectangle (it used to be green in v1.13)
• I tab on the “take picture”-icon

Ok.

@Tryrildoth

• focus is “pumping” again (it did not with eOS version v1.13)
• the image, saved to disk, is blurry

I don’t get this pumping again, and the auto focus seems to work fine for me.

Are you using the original camera module or the + one?
Are you using /e/OS stable or dev?
