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

The camera is super slow, I thought this would get better with the camera pro.
So I tried to set the iso to 800 and 1600 but the exposure is completely off when doing this. It seems the software decides to use a much slower shutter speed than what is actually needed when iso is set manually so pictures are completely over exposed.
Anyone having this trouble? Or do you guys know if it is possible to fix it?
Right now the only way for me to take a picture with manual iso is to also set the shutter speed manually which makes the process super slow and negates most of the benefit of choosing a manual iso since now I have to waste more time trying to guess which shutter speed would be best.
Is horrible work ok nokia, ihave some issues
I don't see any changes when adjusting iso settings. Not sure if it's a gimmick. Might try at night with strong focal light source..

Would somebody be so kind to check if the following is possible:
Camera: Put the ISO on fixed and low (like 100) and then the shutter on auto AND be possible to take good pictures in half lit rooms, like indoors. (shutter can become like 5 seconds, on auto!)
Yes, very simple/basic you would think, but it appears to be very rare for camera phones. For normal camera’s this is 100% basic!
Please tell me the Mi Note 10 can do this.
And for more info, IF you are interested:
I tested it out: P30pro, Oneplus 7T and a bunch of more cheap/midrange/(I)phones. And as soon as you put it on a fixed (low) ISO (if even possible), the max shutter will be too short to make a good picture with low light. Or they put the shutter on manual as soon as you put Iso on a fixed value. Either way, it is not possible what I need for photogrammetry
I have no clue why they set the max shutter on something like half a second max, when ISO is manual/fixed but they do. Or fixed ISO means only manual shutter. Even with Gcam and/or other party apps. I've tried everything!
Yes, you can manually set the shutter longer, to get a decent exposure (so, technical it is possible to take the picture with the right exposure), but I need it to be on auto shutter/exposure, as I have to take 1000+ pictures in half a day for photogrammetry, so I do not have time to do manual shutter/exposure.
On a normal camera this is soooo basic. Please tell me the Mi Note 10 does not have this strange “limitation” for no obvious reason that other high level camera phones do have.
Yes, it has such limitation and it has a basic explanation - if the shutter speed is longer than half a second, you'll need a tripod for a decent image.

Thanks for the answer, though it was not what I hoped for.
And yes you need a tripod of course. But do the big companies think nobody ever heard of a tripod and why you use them for a camera(phone)? Beside that, it is only limited when shutter is on auto, not on manual. To me it make no sense.
Not to mention al 3th party apps, they all claim: use you camera phone as a DSLR…. NOT!
You can do whatever you want, even in the default camera app.
The max shutter rate is 32s, and the max ISO is 6400.
You can set whatever you want.
I also shoot nighttime, and I'm always at 100 ISO.

Okay, but do you set the shutter on manual or on auto? What will become the max shutter on auto? (with fixed ISO at 100 and at nighttime).
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.
So, I like to shoot cinematic videos with a smartphone.
I have four different apps that I use for this (Filmic Pro, ProShot, ProTake and mcpro24fps).
All four of these apps work just fine on a Xiaomi Note 9 phone.
The problem is that the apps cannot lock the exposure in manual mode when I install them on my Realme 5 Pro.
Even if both ISO and Shutter Speed are manually locked by me at my desired values, the exposure still shifts and compensates when I pan the camera from dark to light areas. This renders my shots completely useless.
The interesting part is that if I switch to Auto mode on any of these apps, and then lock the exposure reticle while in Auto, I no longer get shifting exposure. However in Auto mode I am not able to set my Shutter Speed and ISO to the desired values and I must rely on whatever values the app in use automatically chooses for me. This ruins the cinematic look of my shots.
In brief: there must be a setting in Realme 5 Pro's firmware that does not allow the apps to set manual lock on ISO, Shutter Speed and on Exposure in general.
What could that faulty setting be?
Do I have to root my phone in order to correct things somehow? I don't know nothing about root access etc...
Or should I just sit and pray that a future firmware update would solve this issue?
I think I found out what is causing the problem. It is called "dynamic tone mapping" and iPhone users have the same issue with film making apps because of it.
Is there any way to turn the dynamic tone mapping function on Realme 5 Pro off when shooting and encoding videos?
