Gets the distances from the camera to the focus point - getFocusDistances()


The method getFocusDistances(float[] output) of android.hardware.Camera.Parameters gets the distances from the camera to where an object appears to be in focus. The object is sharpest at the optimal focus distance. The depth of field is the far focus distance minus near focus distance. ~ Since: API Level 9.



Modify AndroidCamera.java from last exercise "java.lang.RuntimeException: autoFocus failed", call getFocusDistances() in onAutoFocus() of myAutoFocusCallback, when focused.

  1. On which devices does it work, please?

    It does not work with Xperia Mini St15i.
