Ultimate guide to capture a perfect picture

Hi guys
After doing lots of practicals in different condissions. I found some of the tricks to maximise the quality of picture captured by your smartphone.
So just follow the guide according to what condition you have.
1-- Day time(high to mid light)
Keep the iso value as low as possible.
keep flash onn.
Choose auto focus mode insted of macro mode.
Always try focusing on a light colored object insted of dark color.
Do not focus on plane objects as camera often did not resolve correctly.
if capturing an image with bright colors then you should be a litile bit far from that object or to take a closup have sone shade on that object from sun.
if inside room or in shade from sun set canera to clody mode insted of daylight.
2-- night time(high to mid light)
Keep the iso value as low as possible.
Choose auto focus mode insted of macro mode.
Always keep flash onn.
Always try focusing on a dark colored object insted of light color.
if capturing an image with light colors then you should maximise the exposure value.
if in a room with lighys onn use florosent mode.
3-- night mode(low light)
keep iso value high.
keep flash onn.
maximise the exposure value.
set camera to auto focus.
cloudy mode is perfect for your images.
do focus on object which you can see on screem in dim light.
never zoom your camera.
while closeup in dimlight keep exposure not too high.
4-- images of more than 6meter distance
these images can be clicked only in day time.
keep iso value not too low.
keep exposure maximum.
keep focus to infinity by tapping on any far off object.
set camera to daylight mode.
keep flash onn.
keeping flash onn reduces the shutter closing time. and this allow to get a sharp image without any shakes.
setting iso value to low reduces noice in images but it also reduces the brightness considrable.
exposure is the brightness and contrast of image.
and mode like daylight.cloudy and floresent are type of filters to get natural color in any situation of lights.
i hope this helped a lot.
many of you i think need this. hit thanks if it helped.
peace

Google Camera with working portrait mode V8.2

Here is my version of Google Camera based on BSG's original port.
Although I aimed to get it working only on Galaxy S7 Exynos, there are reports that it is working on other devices like S7 Snapdragon, S8, Note 8 etc...
Working list on S7 Exynos:
-Portrait mode front/back cam
-HDR+ front/back cam
-photo sphere
-panorama
Bugs on S7 Exynos:
-after clean install or clear data when you launch the app for the first time, some settings might not be applied correctly. Please enter settings, then kill the app and start again and everything should be OK.
-if the app hangs during processing a HDR+ or portrait shot, memory leak (500-600 MB) could happen. If it is leaked by GCam, a force close in settings can eliminate it (a swipe away is not enough). However if it is leaked by cameraserver, cameraserver needs to be killed i.e. a reboot is needed for non-rooted users. Memory leak could be observed by looking at 'cat /d/ion/buffer' using adb or root shell. The Pixel 2017 config is more prone to memory leak.
-incorrect EXIF data if denoise is set higher than 100%.
-Pixel 2017 config: Shots with flash might cause a crash sometimes.
-Flash is out of sync without HDR+ turned on.
Working/not working for other galaxys:
Note 8: Rear camera touch to focus not working
S8,S8+ oreo: Pixel 2017 config not working, use Nexus 6 auto instead
Settings to be used:
V8: Clear Data, launch app, enter settings, force close app, relaunch app. You will have the settings I use currently.
Some comments to settings:
Main settings:
NonZSL HDR+ Auto exposure-mode: use "Slow shutter" if you are taking pics of static objects in low light environment. In good light it doesn't matter.
NonZSL HDR+ underexposuse multiplier: Gcam achives great dynamic range by taking underexposed pictures, then brightens them digitally in a very smart way to get a good looking results. However this method can cause the well known rainbow effect sometimes. You can mitigate this effect by lowering underexposure. Dynamic range will be worse of course.
Advanced
HDR+ front camera fix: on if you have a Galaxy S7 Exynos. If HDR+ works for you without this on front cam, don't turn this on, because it will degrade dynamic range in good light!!!!
Current version:
V8.2:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1arSo81b5NE6U6Gow7GkEteJ2wdq4vjEc/view?usp=sharing
Changes vs. V7:
-made Pixel 2017 ZSL config work on our device. I had to disable reprocessing, and smart touch to focus. Also some experimental Pixel specific features like hybrid AE cannot work on our device, so don't expect Pixel like quality. Basically the only change versus Nexus 6 config is that if the HDR+ switch is set to the middle, you will have zero shutter lag HDR+ instead of auto HDR+. ZSL HDR+ is the same thing we already had before in portrait mode. So less dynamic range, and more noise in low light because slow shutter mode is not available. However it is much better in good/medium light if you make photos of unpredictable things like kids, because it processes images already taken in the background. In low light, or high contrast scenes please use Enhanced (nonZSL) HDR+! In "HDR+ parameters" setting I recommend using one of the Pixel 2017 options, because they should be more stable regarding memory leak. "High", "very high" and even "default" leak memory if pixel 2017 config is used.
-BSG mod settings moved to Advanced settings.
-you can now use portrait mode without zoom
-portrait mode pictures can be saved directly to DCIM/Camera. However: the built-in gallery can get confused by this, so I recommend using Google Photos instead (camera.use_photos must be enabled in dev settings). And even more importantly: before V8, the built-in gallery in GCam will delete all portrait pics from DCIM/Camera if you delete a single portrait pic from DCIM/Camera!!!! I patched this in V8, but if you were to go back to a previous version or any other port, you can get into trouble easily!!!!
-you can modify some internal denoise settings. Unfortunately I couldn't find a combination which improves quality in all situations, but feel free to play around with them. Turn on the switches to apply changes.
-fixed a rare background battery consumption issue.
-camcorder fixes: front cam is working now, enabled optical stabilization, Samsung HDR can be turned on for video.
Previous versions:
V7:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SyiyFFVlrqCpCPG7PCTaU48RfzXGp8Vz/view?usp=drivesdk
Changes vs. V6:
-HDR+ setting (off,auto or on) should be permanent now
V6: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zycetD_48ZsD9qu2gkw81hG9Xs0qzc5P/view?usp=sharing
Changes vs. V5:
-fixed bug which caused hdr+ shot failure sometimes!
-attempted to fix HDR+ portrait mode (can be activated by disabling portrait ZSL mode).
-added some description to "HDR+ parameters". For example: 8/10 burst, 1500 MB means: HDR+ operates with 8 shot bursts. Portrait mode (ZSL) operates with 10 shot bursts at most. Estimated total memory usage: 1500 MB (including camera2 api buffers).
V5: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TLi5mt9DDlraF5ncE4SbV7lcfHpeqv4X/view?usp=sharing
Changes vs. V4:
-added more shutter options. Selecting "Stock camera2 api" will get rid of rainbow effect, but dynamic range is poor, because camera can't underexpose fast enough if auto shutter control is on.
-added antibanding modes. Works up to 1/149 sec shutter speed. Only select 50hz or 60hz in case of banding problems, because it can cause suboptimal shutter speed otherwise!
-denoise strength for HDR+ and portrait. For front cam you need to select about 2-300% to really see the difference. Back cam is much more sensitive to this setting.
-HDR+ dynamic range control (called Underexposure multiplier). Reduce below 100% to decrease rainbow effect.
-added Samsung specific metering modes. To enable touch to expose, select "Controlled by GCam".
-added Samsung Live HDR mode. Adds some dynamic range to modes where HDR+ is not available like zero shutter Portrait mode. No Rainbow effect in HDR+ mode if this is selected, but noise is too much unfortunately!
-you can enable HDR+ for Portrait mode by disabling "Portrait ZSL mode". Better dynamic range, custom shutter control, but no zero shutter lag.
-custom white balance. I set greens to 96% to get rid of the greenish look where I sit right now, but it is a matter of taste probably.
-modified HDR+ quality settings. Choose "Very high" if you were using "Medium" before (unstable for me). The recommended "Default" setting is the same as before, it is somewhere between medium and high.
V4: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Lg4uuoiWM4c_XS8KZp4NXOsFkIY4M50B/view?usp=drivesdk
Changes vs. V3:
-front cam HDR+ workaround for S7. Still to be tested in very bright conditions. Turn on "HDR+ front camera fix" if you have an S7.
-front cam: normal pics in auto HDR+ mode are saved now
-front cam: improved non-HDR+ quality
-added a custom auto-exposure mode for HDR+ (only HDR+, so not for portrait). It is called "Slow shutter" because it will decrease shutter speed as much as possible (1/10 secs on S7) in bad light. The result: much lower ISO and noise. Of course fast moving objects will probably get blurry more easily. Only tested this on S7, on other devices it might need some tuning.
V3: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pPWR2MjeSeC-b_9B5TI1Oi_RfOti6IXo/view?usp=sharing
Changes vs. V2:
-purple colour on highly exposed areas in front camera fixed
-front cam HDR+
-made medium-very high HDR+ settings work again
V2: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vRcLKVq8qbTL1KbMajPCEROMmnnod1va/view?usp=sharing

V2 work better than v3 in Galaxy S8

Your port have been super amazing. Im using s8 Plus and Note 8 Exynos and Ive completely ditch the stock camera (except for videos). Medium hdr parameter+pixel 2xl works best for me (anything higher has no signjficant improvement from medium) as it reduces noise and artifacts on lowlight so I'm kinda curious, will there be any way to improve the shutter speed at these settings?
More powers to you and you should be considered an international treasure for Exynos users!

Is there a fix coming for noisy portrait shots from FFC? In v2 the shots turned out great when there were no purple artifacts, but now, even though artifacts are gone, sharpness is too high.

Update: and is there anyway we can make face retouch working in front cam non portrait mode. Thanks!

Awesome work! And thanks for opening a new thread here ?
Wishlist:
-Front Camera image flipped/mirrored by default.
-Opening Camera directly in Portrait Mode.

First of all, thanks.
A question, if you can: On S7 (Note 8 Exynos here) touch focus won't work? I don't talk about exposure, I mean the focus. If I have an object in sight and want to focus it (macro style), if I touch on it then the focus will go far away. On the panorama/scene behind the object. And the object on the front line will be blurred. Only way to focus is to move the phone then center it on the object.
Again, thank you. Selfies are great with your port. Shame on Samsung. :/

Hello, what is the difference between model chosed? And also do hdr parameters really make a difference?

What phone are you using? Model wouild make certain options appear such as face retouching etc. Quality, I dont really see any big difference. Paramaters for me has significantly improve lowlight performance though there are also cons such as darker images in stiuations that subject is against the light. Medium parameter has given me less noisy images.

This wont be necessary, as there are people who take pictures just with the camera and rarely use portrait mode... Lets try to keep the app as default as possible. Peace

I am OK with this. But whole point of this app is to take portraits!

Thanks for this amazing port! Always a good job version after version.
Just to ask, the portrait mode with flash on hangs after taking a photo. Is this a known bug?
My device is S7 edge exynos.
Thanks and keep up the good work!

Do we have a working port for j7 pro devices?

Any eligible check for installing?
Hi @miniuser123,
I had Samsung A7 2016 with Exynos 7xxx inside. But I can not install the app. Is there any validation before installing? Can you remove that validation?

Doesn't medium like kill your phone's memory and make it super laggy? And when you mentioned Pixel 2 XL, you mean the HDR settings?

The update seems to have solved the purple tint when you are in overexposed areas. Majority seems to be working well now. Good job on the update. ???

So i use s7 edge exynos and use pixel 2 xl as model, so the parameters basically is different in quality in low light and not much difference in bright light right?

Can't wait for the next version. how amazing it is.

HOW TO: Take better pictures with night mode in low light (manual ISO and shutter)

Simply set ISO to 1600 and shutter to 1/2 s in extreme low light (night street pictures etc...)
Wait a second and watch magic happen.
Result:
- More colorful than full auto night mode
- Sharper than full auto night mode
- More detail that full auto night mode with less detail lost due to AI stabilization (handshake compensation) and oversharpening
- Brighter picture
Hint: By lowering ISO to 800 or 400 you can make final picture (exposure) darker if that is what you need/want.

Stock camera app auto-mode tips

Here a a few tips on controlling the stock camera app in auto-mode that you may or not be aware off.
Just thought it may be of help to other owners.
We know we can control pretty much all aspects of camera in manual mode (focus, metering, ISO, WB, etc).
However, on the Xperia 5 the manual mode generates more noise in the images than the auto-mode, especially noisy in non-HDR mode whith dark environments on the photo background areas, edges and faces.
So I end up using mostly the auto-mode except to force HDR or for long-exposure shots.
In auto-mode, there are quite a few things I found frustrating compared to manual mode, but for which there are solutions:
Control scene detection: sometimes you don't want auto Backlight (HDR), Document, Food, etc. >> To temporarily disable scene detection in auto-mode, simply click on the sun icon on the left. When the icon is blue all photos are taken in standard mode: no HDR or special color processing.
1st Edit: Condition: you must use tap to focus. (If you just focus with the shutter software button, the hardware button or object tracking, scene detection won't disengage unless you actually change brightness or tint.)
Control focus: eye focus works quite well for faces. To focus on other objects, auto-mode has 3 options:
1. Auto-focus (the large green rectangle that appears when you click on shutter soft or hardware button): This tries to guess what the subject is and often leads to unpredictable results.
2. Object tracking (yellow rectangle): This is useful for moving objects. I don't use it for anything else because it typically detects and focuses on the outer edges of objects instead of the center of objects, making for blurred subjects. Also it works really bad for very small objects or when it's darker.
3. Tap to focus (blue circle): This lets you choose precisely the focus point. Much better focus results in general than method 1 or 2 above.
Control exposure: Auto-exposure is pretty good if you just point and shoot. But if you use the precise tap to focus method in auto-mode, light metering is measured on the point you clicked, and you also loose scene detection and HDR, so that's not often what you want, unless you want your black cat to turn white on the photo ! The problem is that in auto-mode there is no option in settings "Touch to adjust: Focus only" (option only available in manual mode). ...Well in fact there is a way: enable "Touch capture" in camera settings. This in fact lets you tap on screen to focus (and shoot), while still doing light-metering on the whole scene and keeping scene detection ON.
1st Edit: When touch capture is ON, tapping on screen sometimes fails to focus because the picture is taken before the camera has time to focus, especially in low light. In this case you have to take the picture twice or use the timer so it has time to focus. Well this pretty much makes this "tip" useless !
2nd Edit: Sometimes the camera fails to focus if there no contrast on the clicked zone, but touch capture is not the cause. Try to tap on a zone with more contrast to improve focus success.
So in summary here is how I set for most pictures:
1. Use auto-mode (better noise-reduction than manual mode)
2. Disable object tracking (enables the more precise tap to focus).
3. Enable Touch capture (preserve HDR, multi-metering and scene detection with tap to focus. 1st Edit: when it actually manages to focus before picture is taken, basically only in good light it seems.).
In some special situations, I adjust the following:
4. Click on sun icon, 1st Edit: then tap to focus (when I want to disable scene detection / HDR)
5. Use the lamp flash (only for macro shots in very dark condition to get usable ISO/speed)
6. Use the flash (only when necessary to get usable ISO/speed or to compensate huge backlit situation)
7. Adjust brightness with slider (if I really need to tweak brightness)
All in all I find that all the above settings allow for flexible controls and good results in auto-mode.
Of course you may have a different usage and set yours completely differently.

Quite useful tips, thanks! Especially considering that camera quality appeared to be below my expectations (coming from Pixel devices, Huawei Mate 20 Pro, P30, Galaxy Note 10+). There are few complains about X5 camera system with which I can't do anything about. Firstly, quite slow camera app start up time and its overall performance compared to other devices. Secondly, focusing system is clearly inferior too. Main camera struggles to focus on objects a way too often in situations where others do it easily. Thirdly, HDR mode nearly useless (absolutely useless compared to, say, Pixel 2). Also camera has difficulties to make decent pictures in conditions different from ideal - blown out skies, crushed dark areas, overexposure problems are not something rare here. Finally, low light performance is a way below the competition. Making good pictures in low light from handheld phone is nearly impossible. Blurry mess or aqua painting effect is guaranteed. I hope that Sony will address these issues in future updates.

Photo Pro Settings

I'm just curious about how people use Photo Pro. When I turn on Photo Pro, it goes directly to Shutter Speed mode. I have auto-focus continuous on, focus area wide, and meter area multi. I initially shoot with single-exposure and only move to continuous shooting as needed. Flash is off, white balance is auto, Auto HDR and D-'Range Optimizer are off. I have the histogram turned on.
I'm curious about your starting point and any observations you have on my parameters.

Might have to look under settings and see what it says under there like last mode or something

Thanks. I have that one set to open in Photo Pro on last mode used. It opens to "S-Mode", shutter speed priority.
