Your camera have very low resolution. I think that minimal resolution for a acceptable quality is above 10MP. I tested on 5MP and 7MP with bad results. If you disable image processor you will capture the raw image of the camera, it is the best you can do, if this isn't acceptable, please try to compare with images of the stock camera app, if they are different, please tell me.

It would probably be a good idea to show the resolution somewhere in the UI. I wasn't actually sure if ONS was using the highest possible resolution for my device.
