Video recording quality settings? - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Am i being dumb but in other phones you can select video quality 720p 1080p etc. Is there no settings for this on the Z5?
And how come the camera only has 23 20 & 8 MP as options? Thought there'd be more intermediate choices too?

[Q] 720P?

Can anyone change the Camera's video recording Resolution to 720p?
I see huge potential in the Sidekick's camera and I was just curious if it was possible.
The Sidekick does already take some pretty nice videos for a 3.2 megapixel camera so recording quality should be good.
If anyone can do it, please do.
So you want me to downgrade the camera quality? All the pictures I've taken are 2048x1536, much higher than 720p
Oh shoot. I meant to say Video Recording quality to 720p. Lol, I'm sorry for the miscommunication.
So does no one know how to make the camera record videos in 720p?
go to camera then to settings

60 fps video on any third-party camera apps?

Hi everyone,
I've been doing some experimentation with Open Camera and the Google camera app, and I can never seem to get 60 fps video recorded. The OP6 camera seems to downgrade to 30 frames per second in all third-party apps, no matter what settings (resolution, bit rate, fps) I choose. Has anyone managed to get 60fps on this hardware using any third party camera app?
Exactly
While Google cam does such a great job with photos, only the stock camera seems to be able to record smooth videos at 60 fps. It's not the ideal solution, but I'd say just stick with two camera apps on your phone, stock for videos and third party app of your choice for photos.
Damm day i buy this phone...
Offered a F1 to my wife this weekend and already have native 60fps at 4K, and slow camera with 960fps....
Shame on you OP....

OP6 also has native 4k60fps camera with the stock camera app...

Video quality

Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Xiaomi Mi 9 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Coming from a Mi Mix 2S I can not stress enough how great the Video quality is on this Phone. Smooth 60FPS in a 4K Video and very fast and crisp autofocus makes this camera a joy.

The Mi 9 does suffer from judder in 4K 30fps which are a result of missed frames.
This has also been confirmed on dxomark review
Hopefully this can be fixed in a software update

We need to hit up the xiaomi forum and get some confirmations on my thread.

Register and reply back to the thread and give a confirmation that you experience the same issue. This will make them investigate the issue
A video recorded by me from Xiaomi Store in London in 4K 30fps with stabilisation (judder / dropped frames)

For some reason the videos look worse on YouTube then on my 4K Samsung TV. This may due to the way YouTube processes those dropped frames, during its conversion process.
This needs to be fixed as its a big disappointment.
The Snapdragon 855 has more than enough power to handle 4K at 30fps with AI stabilisation but the Mi 9 lack of OIS could be the reason why it struggles during panning
The video is EXTREMELY SHAKY - EIS seems nonexistant.
- Audio is 14/20 (concert recording ok, quieter scenes a bit less nice)
EDIT:
- This is due to limitations on 4K60
- EIS is good on 4K30 - but then there are dropped frames.
I dislike the EIS implementation of Xiaomi (so called stabilization) on the Mi 9. It crops the image and you loose sharpness over stabilization. If you turn it off you also have a wider view.
My other phone (Mi 9 SE) the EIS is less agressive, so the crop is less perhaps due to the lesser cpu. The actual image looks better because it is sharper, detailed and has a wider view. The problem is that EIS causes judder when panning because the software is not optimized and more judder with lesser cpu. I actually prefer that they implemented the EIS on the Mi 9 with less cropping.
Strange is that I disable stabilization on both Mi 9 and Mi 9 SE but the video is still sharper and more detailed on the Mi 9 SE.

To be noted that now Gcam supports EIS in 4k 30 fps and 60 fps with much less cropping.

The stabilization is not as slider smooth as MIUI cam, though. I'd still prefer to disable EIS and have my gimbal for serious video recording.
Its excellent actually thanks to the new GCAM mod by urnyx05. It supports 100Mbits 4K 60fps videos with working video stabilization!! Working video stabilization on 4k 60fps is really uncommon. Non of the flagships have it nor even iPhones support it.

Actually, many of today's flagship can stabilize [email protected] including but not limited to iPhone 11 series, Samsung S20 series, even OPPO Find X2 Pro can do it as well. Xiaomi isn't left behind as Mi 10 series can do it, unfortunately as typical Xiaomi, they don't backport many features to older devices.

Hi, can you please point out which version of the GCam you're talking about? I've been looking for ways to get at least 1080p 60fps with EIS on my Mi9 but no luck so far..

Camera question

Hi guys,
So, we have a number of options when taking pictures and recording videos.
I want to know your opinion on which one is better.
1. Photos: So in 108mpx camera mode we do not have any ultra wide angle or optical zoom. Is it worth using that camera at all or just use standard 12mpx camera that has both optical zoom and ultra wide? Did you notice and difference in picture quality?
2. Videos: In 60FPS mode we only have digital zoom whilst in 30FPS (both uhd and full hd) we do have optical zoom and ultra wide. Does it mean that 60FPS video is made by 108mpx camera and all other modes are made by the other camera? Which one is better?
3. How come telephoto and ultrawide can work together but 108mpx cannot? What's the point of 108mpx if we can't use all extra perks?
Thx.
I came here to post the same question, I've just switched from an iPhone and the choices overwhelm me.
Would be great to here what people think the best settings are. I had made the assumption that 108mp = better but then as OP mentions that takes away ultra wide capability.
Depends what -you- want.
You need to learn about the technologies, formats and so on to make the right choices.
One size doesn't fit all... no real short cuts to knowledge.
Plenty of info but it's spread across different websites and involves multiple disciplines.
Welcome to the immersive world of digital photography...
I'd suggest searching for advanced camera settings on the Note 20 ultra on YouTube.
There are some good videos on the featured and which setting to use in certain circumstances.

4k 60?

I was looking through the video quality settings on my A71 and there doesn't seem to be a 4K 60fps option. If i'm not mistaken, the 765g is capable of 4k 60 and I know the camera hardware surely does so what's up with that?
