Motorola DROID’s focussing bug is date based
This bug is one to remember, that’s for sure. Most of the reviews of the Motorola DROID hit the phone hard for being mostly useless as a still camera due to the awful focusing system. The thing is, the focus started working very recently. In fact, the focusing is very good all of a ...
