    Alex,

    I tried out your latest version 0.7 on my MC55 and the flash works great!

    I have already integrated it into my project and plan to release it in a day or two. I will also be buying a copy of your source when some $$ rolls in, I am dying to see how this thing works.

    Lastly, the autofocus, focusPlus, focusMinus, zoomIn, zoomOut features don’t seem to function correctly on an MC55. I don’t need those features for my project and the lib works great the way it is, but I thougt you would like to know.

    Hi admin,

    All the control functions like zoom, focus or flash are not working on my device
    HTC Diamond Touch P3700 :(. May be I need to change another device. Could you please advise me which model you are testing on.

    Thanks,

    Kha

    Library was updated to 0.7.0.0 version, was added methods:
    a) autofocusOn
    b) autofocusOff
    c) focusPlus
    d) focusMinus
    e) zoomIn
    f) zoomOut

    fixed methods flashOn/flashOff also AMCamera example was splited for 3 different example applications

    In next version:
    Exposure, image rotation (preview and grabbing) and MMS downloading/playing

    2John and all, flash already fixed, also i added autofocus, focusPlus, focusMinus, zoomIn, zoomOut, pan, tilt, roll and iris i will try to upload new version (0.7.0.0) this weekend.

    Regarding licensing: you can use library for free if you want, there nothing illegal, but if you need sources you can buy it (check buy tab) and if you want to donate you can always donate if not thats your decision and nobody wont judge you :)

    Alex,
    This is amazing. Great job! I have searched the entire web and this is the only lib of its kind and I plan to implement it immediately.

    I am developing on the Motorola MC55/75 and everything works perfect except the flash (sad face). Any ideas?

    Lastly, do you have any restrictions on distribution with other apps, licensing etc? Or do you just prefer a donation?

    But great job regardless.

    Hey,
    I have updated the Lib and the new functions are working fine :)
    But if I take a RGB Picture and view it in a Picturebox it’s a different Picture.
    It seems that an other area is grabbed, so what ever I do, I don’t get the Picture I saw in the “preview” :(
