Manual mode should show all resolutions. Not sure what you mean with superior auto, I think it is locked to 8 MP on the Z3+. Let me try to find out more about this.

Hi @akkithebatman,

Welcome to the community.

I believe it is just as @alexdon says. I have just checked this on a Z3+ with Marshmallow and it does indeed only have 8MP in Superior Auto, but, based on the information I currently have available, this was always the case for this handset even on Lollipop. To get the higher resolutions you have to select manual mode.

Dear CameronT,

you're not right !

Before the marshmallow update I was able to choose a different resolution on the auto superior mode on my Z3 plus.

I would highly recommend you to fix that issue or we need to be able to go back for Lollipop!

I did bought this Handset due to high quality of the camera, but now we cannot use it!

A good(high) quality of easy taken photos can’t be performed.

On the other side the is an issue and with the short cut option of the capture the screen after the Marshmallow as well.

regards Petar

I also have the same issues of Camera quality being low.

My old Samsung S3 is lights years ahead of this camara now.

If this camera app continues then never ever again buy a Sony thing..

This is my advice to all. ..

Actually it is sad to see Sony being a great company going in the way where Nokia and Kodak has gone..
