[Q] Camera App? - LG Optimus 3D

I have noticed that the camera pictures have very low size 0.5 mb my old nokia e51 pictures were larger... I had one app I can't remember the name, the pictures quality were much greater.. So is there any app that can beat the stock app??

You shouldn't take the size of a picture as a reference for quality. It depends on many factors how big a file would be. Speaking from my experience a wide photo is bigger than a zoomed in photo because it has more details to take in, a photo in a brighter light gives a bigger size, a photo with a lots of details and colors also gives a bigger size. Plus technology is advancing at rapid pace so you can't compare cameras on different devices from different times.
As alternatives you can try something like: Camera FV-5 (emulates a DSLR with many of its functions) or you can try putting on a stock camera from LG Prada or LD O3D Max (normally to have these you must flash a ROM) or you can look at here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502963 - a thread about camera mods on O3D
I also recommand some other apps that gives more functionality to the stock camera: Fast Burst Camera - takes like 100 shots in about 20 secs - good to make animated gifs, and Lapse It - an app that takes and wrap it up timelapse pictures into a movie.

Custom picture settings

I'm a big picture guy and wanted to know if any of you guys have adjusted any of the settings and have noticed better picture quality. I must say taking off auto-focus does help with the blurryness a little as stated in a previous post but just wanted to know what differences have you made/seen...
I currently have most things set to default.

Set it to highest resolution.
You will probably have to go to another app to really get good pictures. The stock app compresses them down too much. Hopefully, they will improve it in later updates. There is no excuse for not having more features like Camera 360 - the camera can do much better.
Ditto for the "720p" video. Did some side-by-side with a still camera that has a 720p mode - night and day difference in quality. Again, hope/wonder if this can also be upgraded with only software.
Switch to standard photo size by switching off widescreen mode. All widescreen does is lop off pixels from the top and bottom of your photos. If you really wanted that, just do it yourself in a photo editor. You are not using the full resolution of your camera in widescreen mode, and 16:9 photos are non-standard when it comes to printing either 4x6 or 5x7 photos.

[Q] Different image size

Hello,
*I have isocell sensor but when i take a picture with the stock camera the size of the pictures is about 4-5 mb and when i take a picture with fv-5 app the size is almost doubled
like 9-10 mb
It is normal?
Maybe the stock camera is set to take photos with lower quality?
The fv-5 take better photos?
Someone help pls
Most likey set on a different resolution.

Stock camera app. vs camera fv-5

i really love shooting RAW for edit but jpeg is also important
after 5.1.1 update which enables raw capture i get camera fv-5 app but i'm really upset of its jpeg bad quality in-spite of its large size compared to the stock camera app.
any one had noticed this??? the photos are not sharp at all and feels like it's taken by 5 MP camera

u should report it to App Developers
for JPEG format test this app
Floating CameraW+
>> This is not raw capturing But it just capture the exact view of lens without any extra effect
so on healthy hardware it should take vibrant color and clear view compare to stock app
the full CameraW+ is paid on Google Play Store But If it can help to solve ur problem msg me to send its APK file
:good:

i think you're on to something I noticed it as well. let me know what you find. I'll reach out to developers of Camera FV-5 as well.

Stacking Photos to increase resolution and reduce noise.

I have had the practice of stacking photos in photoshop to increase the spacial resolution and increase tremendous detail in photos taken from my DSLR. I Want the same to be implemented on android but how?
I know there is an app called Camera super resolution on the play store that worked on limited phones. It worked on my oneplus 2 but the way it was implemented just didnt look great as it just enalarged the pic and the stacking used to work seldomly and even when it took 1 single pic it used to enlarge it 4 times.
I took some photos using my oneplus 6 consecutively handheld and stacked them in photoshop and the results are beautiful. Less noise and more detail. The oneplus 6 has the Snapdragon 845 so the stacking should almost be in real time as anyways the camera app stacks photo exposure for hdr.
So my question is can anyone implement this photoshop stacking feature on android. Please............

The image quality of the camera is a LOT worse than advertised

Hello there, other S10e owners,
Recently, I took advantage of an early Black Friday sale to get an S10e, the phone I was craving for a while. They said the image quality is on par with the Pixel 3 after the May update, but in reality, it's just as noisy and "oil-paintingish" as my Xperia Z1 Compact from four (!!!) years ago.
The samples are in the attachment of this forum post; the first and the third image was taken with the Google Camera app, and the second and forth one with the Samsung Camera app. The first two images were taken with HDR, but the latter ones without HDR.
As you can see in the non-HDR pictures, the Samsung Camera picture has less noise, but cold, washed-out colours and less detail thanks to the aggressive noise cancellation.
On the other hand, the Google Camera image has the correct colour representation and more detail, but with the sacrifice of noise cancellation.
With HDR+, though... Things get even worse. The Samsung Camera app now blurs out even more detail and the Google Camera app just cranks up the ISO to levels that make the image too bright.
In conclusion, the image quality is not on the promised levels, but I hope there's something I can do with it (like a good setup.xml file that can fix GCam to shoot exceptionally good images in both sun- and low light or fixing the Samsung Camera app). So, in order to fix this, I need your help. Please give me advice to pimp back up the image quality to the levels I saw in camera reviews.
Edit: Oops, I forgot to mention that I have the Exynos version.

Please give me the Gcam download link. I couldn't find any Gcam version that worked well on my S10e Exynos. Thanks

If you can do something with it, here's the link: GCam Exynos APK
In sunlight, it should theoretically work with the stock settings, but they say it's recommended to change the auto-exposure correction to 1/2 sec, the Night Sight correction to 1/4 sec and the exposure compensation to -3,0 to get the best out of daytime GCam photos.
For Night Sight images, it's recommended to use the mackytravel-nightsight.xml file without any changes for outdoor night photos and for indoors, turn off auto-exposure correction and exposure compensation, change the Night Sight correction to 1
or 2 sec (depending on the level of darkness) and in the Advanced drop-down menu, turn off the ISO limit. This way, you can get more detail out from the S10e's powerful camera sensors.
Lastly, if you'd like to shoot something with the wide-angle lens, just change the auxiliary camera switching method to the long-press method.
You can find my GCam config folder with all of the said configuration files at the link here.
Just install the GCam apk, copy-paste the config folder to the root of your internal storage (/storage/emulated/0/) and double tap on the black area around the shutter button to choose between the three configuration files.
I've noticed a similar thing with my camera on my SD 855 model where images taken using the camera just don't look very natural or realistic. They look very much like a painting!
Currently I get better results with HDR on and scene optimiser turned off.
My iPhone 7 photos still look a bit more natural at times but obviously less detailed.
