upgrade Camera - Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello All...i newbie here... I like take a picture with my experia Z3, can samebody tell me how to upgrade or modified the Camera for the Best one... Oh ya...if i write with my language whats that will be some problem to Make conversation here..? Thanks 4 ur answer..

You mean the camera app? The Xperia one seems to be crippled in that it can only access the full 20 megapixel in manual mode, auto drops it down to 8 (!!)
But there are some good free and paid-for camera apps that will do full auto at 20 Mp - Camera Fv 5 is good, Archos camera is good..
If you mean upgrade the physical camera - no really possible.

Google Camera apk

Here is the Google Camera Apk
I pulled it from a deodexed rome that was built for the new N3 of the other Korean handset manufacturer. I claim no responsibility for this apk at all. I just pulled it and am posting it here for you because it has a better jpeg algorithm than the LG camera. The LG camera jpeg algorithm is kind of hard on flesh-tones. but this google camera is better.
Still not perfect, has a couple bugs. For example software menu buttons are stuck on the screen so you have to rotate the phone 180 degrees to hit the shutter button but maybe we can find a better solution together.

This thing is even worse than the LG camera.. trust me!
A was way to open a thread about this! !true the lg stock camera app is terrible, the image encoding is for trash but i have one question. The app works great but why i cant put 13 mp size photo? I see only 8

Well cou can improve performance of camera by setting the resolution to 4:3 screen 8 MP camera, put the flash to Auto, white balance to Auto and also use data storage as SD card to save space, set the focus to Touch to focus ( it gives better focus).
Some small changes can provide good performance.

GCam for Poco f1/Pocophone f1

Google Camera Port by BSG and @sannn111ty for the Poco f1
If you don't really know why you are here, You can download Gcam here. Gcam is short for Google's camera app that ships with the pixels. Google has been making incredible advances in camera software that they put on their Pixel devices. Most of the magic of the camera quality of pixel's reside in the High Dynamic Range google algorithms. However, this software is not officially available for other devices. BSG is the first developer to have adapted Gcam for other devices. He now has a MI 8, which is very siùilar to the Pocophone, so his ports actually work pretty well on this phone.
Here is a list of the features that make google's software stand apart from all the other stock and 3rd party camera apps. (Not all of them are available in the ports, but more appear with time).
HDR + and HDR+ Enhanced: That's what most people want Gcam for. The app takes multiple pictures at different exposure levels and combines them to get even lighting. This photography technique is available on many stock cams, but Google's custom implementation of it is generally regarded as highly superior.
Super Res Zoom: That is a "usebug" feature. When you're taking a picture, unless you have a tripod, you can't hold the phone perfectly still. Google uses this slight movement to take multiple shots, which are then combined to make out more detail for the final image. Where other OEMs add a second camera, Google gives better results with just one.
Night Sight: where HDR combines multiple under-exposed shots, Night Sight does the same thing with over-exposed and longer exposed images. This produces impossible-before shots with way less noise and blur in very low-light conditions. In Daylight, Night Sight Mode also applies Super res Zoom to the image, giving a lot more detail to your pictures.
ZSL HDR+: ZSL stands for Zero Shutter Lag. As HDR uses multiple pictures, you need to wait for the phone to snap those multiple shots. ZSL essentially means your phone is always taking pictures and has a couple already buffered when you hit the shutter, so you don't need to wait.
Portrait Mode: That's blurring that background of an image behind a face. this is a trend on smartphones, and most OEMs implement it by adding a second camera on the back. the two sensors produce a slightly different image and you can calculate from the difference where to blur the image. But Google has decided not to add a second sensor to their phones. The way they pull it off is by local Artificial intelligence to detect faces and blur the rest.
Photosphere: This is essentially a 360° Panorama. You point around you and the phone takes, then stitches together, multiple images in a sphere around you. You can then view the pictures by moving them around with your fingers, or moving around your phone like a window around you.
Panorama: That is self-explanatory. like everything else, Gcam takes excellent panoramas.
Video Recording: Gcam Records video at up to [email protected]
Slow-Motion: this port can take slow-motion videos at up to [email protected]
Top Shot: Google's AI is now so good it know what a good image is like. If you hit the shutter too Soon or too late, Google will suggest another shot. It will actually take a dozen out of which you can choose, but will also suggest the best one.
Photobooth: As the camera is continually shooting and waiting for you to tap the shutter, why couldn't it do this for you too? Once Photobooth is on, you just leave your phone and it will take the picture on its own when it "sees something interesting", like a smile. Essentially, it's an AI photograph for group shots where everyone can fit in and lets you use the back sensor instead of the selfie cam.
Tracking Autofocus : As the name implies, once you click on an object while filming, it will keep the focus on it however it moves.
I am not a developer, but the subforum is for gcam ports, so here is the one for the Pocophone, with instructions and
Go to this thread, wich always has the last version up.
You are welcome to post your amazing pictures here :
These ports are specifically made for the Pocophone F1. They might or might not work on your phone.
If you find that our APK's work well on your other model, you can open a thread for your phone to help others find a working APK faster and discuss model-specific issues.
If you have bugs, something isn't working correctly, please don't just post "Not Working !!!!" That doesn't help. Give details :
- The model of your Phone, your ROM if you're using one, any fixes installed;
- The name of the apk you're using;
- Screenshots or video recordings of the bug if you're able to;
- A logcat if there's a crash;
- Steps to reproduce the bug/crash;

Try flashing twrp fix bro. It fixed my issue.
Try installing MIUI 10 v10.2.2.0 or higher , it should fix most of problems with gcam
Love this camera ...
I installed gcam and flashed twrp fix. I was using 10.1.3.0
After 10.2 I updated it and flashed twrp fix again for the lag issue.
Now I noticed that portrait mode is not working in stock camera. ?
i downloaded and it seems fine ...
Confused a bit, what is the difference between this and the one here :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f1/themes/b-s-g-google-camera-port-developed-mi-8-t3843130
Update to miui 10.2.2.0 i installed the same version of gcam on miui 10.1.3.0 and it didnt work i manually updated to miui 10.2.2.0 and it worked to install it just use android studs guide
Maybe a dumb question.? How is "Motion" in GCam working? Is it working at all? I have never found any of these short videos. Where are they stored? I'm using a Pocophone F1.
Thank you
Working fine with poco rom stock mui 10.3.6

Redmi note 7 pro true camera performance pushed to the limits

As seen in review Redmi note 7 pro comes with camera2api enabled out of the box.
So technically we can get full manual support like
Shutter speed of 30 sec,iso,manual white balance,manual focus and most importantly RAW and DNG support. It does have the the camera hardware and processor to handle this things.
Can you all test apps like Camera -fv,Open camera or Bacon camera to see the device performance:
1:Low light
2:Light trail
3very important and the main reason of this post)
Astrophotography or Milkyway shots
Main task take photo at night pointing at the sky with stars around and take a shoot with this setting
Iso( lowest setting possible)+30 sec or more shutter speed+focus infinity( save the image in JPG and DNG)
AND PLS UPLOAD THE RESULT
???

Welcome bro, and I added 18 more photos to the album. Dude the camera blows!!! This the most expensive phone I have purchased in my life and I could not be more happy.
In one particular photo on 48 mp, supersampling went wrong and the photo has color bands or spots.

I don't have a tripod but I'll try out what you said. And this camera really captures even the smallest of the details. If you download and zoom in some of these building photos you can even see sunlight reflecting into spaces in the societies parking area. Even the farthest objects can be looked at closed with good details. Very surprised.

Here you go buddy.
It wasn't very dark location and Milky way wasn't up , but you can se the big dipper.
ISO 1600 , Shutter 16s . I tried shutter speed of 32s but stars were trailing at that so used 16s.
I used stock camera on purpose because I wanted to see without any special efforts how is the quality.
And I can say I am impressed.
Straight out of camera image. No modifications whatsoever.
will try milky way in upcoming months.

The stock camera reduces sharpness on human subjects and boosts color to look pleasing to the eye even with beautify, AI mode turned off. So it's better to try some other camera for true experience.
If you want a proper stock, download Gcam and capture picture in RAW format.
A word of caution, the RAW images will look dull because no processing has been done on the images and they will be very large in size. Use Lightroom (Pc and Android Both) to fit it according to your need.
Added one more picture

Yes , Built in camera does alter images .

The photos are awesome!
Can you share the exact camera settings used & whether you used the usual point and shoot mode or used pro mode?
If so the iso and shutter etc settings to get such perfect shots?
Also, were these captured on 48mp mode or default mode.?
Some issues:
My phone is just a week old while I have no issues with anything, whats bothering me is rear/main camera capturing daylight images with a yellow tint.
If I shoot anything indoors using an artificial light like cfl or led bulbs the shots come perfect and real in colors or textures and lighting.
Also, again the Red color seems isnt captured to the perfection. It is either captured as pink or orange.
I hope these are software issues or if the camera lens parses the light more in yellow.
Any expert to comment on this.
Very nice photos by phone

Default APP Camera - How to Zoom on 48mb mode?

Hi guys,
I brought A Zenfone 6 today.I'm came from Pixel 2.
After one day of user, I get this impressions:
1.Photos in 48mb are much better than 12mb.
2.Gcam port "UNI_CAM" is not so good of default camera in the most cases,
So, I will be happy with default camera if I find a way to zoom on 48mb mode.
If a try zoom in this resolution, I receive a message talking about this is not compatible with this resolution.
Anyone now a way to this work?
Or any apk that have the same cam with this working?
Thank you!
