So I'm assuming "camera geeks" will be viewing this thread so I thought I'd ask a question. I loved the Moto camera app on my Moto X and I really miss some of it's features in the stock PIxel camera app. If you switch from the stock app what happens to picture quality? Is the picture quality of the Pixel camera dependent on the app or just the hardware? I get great pictures on my Pixel so I don't want to give that up but I'm really not crazy about the UI of the app.
adobe lightroom for android has a powerfull pro feature and HDR RAW in camera

As far as I know, you'll lose HDR+ because that is done by the application. I'm not sure if the EIS is built into the camera application or not, but I'm inclined to think that it is. The resolution and clarity of the pictures will be the same regardless of camera app, but you will lose some of the dynamic range.

Sony Xperia Camera App - more options? Better camera app?

Hey there, I found a few screens on the web that show a lot more in-app-camera-apps and a lot more options for manual control. Is there any way to kind of unlock the app or something?
If not, any better camera app to download with a focus on manual control?
Best

I think no other could do better. I got some information about XPZ camera. 。There are special algorithms in the phone to support photos

Snap-Camera is my favourite and it's on XDA
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055140
It supports all manual controls on my XZP and shoots in full 19MP. I find it's overall picture a lot better than sony's.
Give it a try.
Actually it does not. Max shutter speed is limited to 1/10s. Which isn't mind blowing. It's Sony fault. They have limited shutter speed in manual camera to 1s and in 3rd party apps to 1/10s...

A Guide for Better Photography [How to use manual mode][camera api2 pros]

It is boring to always use the auto mode in camera so let's try the manual mode and have greater quality pictures, which is better than auto mode.
What is manual mode ?
Manual mode is one of the main settings on your camera, and it lets you manually control shutter speed, white balance, manual focus, and ISO in most. These three settings work together to control the how bright or dark your photo is (known as exposure), as well as change the overall look of the image.
What is ISO ?
In photography ISO measures the sensitivity of the image sensor. The same principles apply as in film photography – the lower the number the less sensitive your camera is to light and the finer the grain. Higher ISO settings are generally used in darker situations to get faster shutter speeds.
What is Shutter Speed ?
In photography, shutter speed or exposure time is the length of time when the film or digital sensor inside the camera is exposed to light, also when a camera's shutter is open when taking a photograph. The amount of light that reaches the film or image sensor is proportional to the exposure time.
What is White balancing ?
White balancing is a process in which a camera will attempt to detect the type of white light largely visible in different environments. This is typically utilized to account for different light sources (fluorescent, incandescent, etc.), as well as different weather types and times of day (overcast, sunny, sunset, etc.). White balance generally focuses on collecting the proper temperature of white light in a scene, which ranges from cold (blue-tinted) to warm (orange or gold-tinted).
This is one setting that is often best left on automatic settings, unless the viewfinder suggests that the automatic white balance is obviously wrong. Of note, RAW images will have to be manually white balanced in post-processing, as RAW shooting will not modify the white balance in-camera.
What is Manual Focus ?
Manual focus controls are a more recent and much-appreciated addition to the control suite of manual smartphone photographers. Most camera apps features a simple and intuitive circular slider which can be used to accurately set focus manually in lieu of the jumpier and imperfect auto-focus, something which is often exaggerated when trying to take photos of close subjects. If you want to take a closer pic of something very near try macro focus.
What is Manual exposure ?
manual exposure is a small supplement to ISO and shutter speed settings, and it is one of the rarer manual settings one will find in smartphone camera applications. If a combination of shutter speed and ISO produce an unsatisfying image, manual exposure is often offered as a way of tweaking the brightness of an image in-camera. It can quite easily be replaced by simply modifying brightness after taking the photo, but it can sometimes be more efficient to get the image right the first time.
What do we have in our Lenovo P2 :
I had Camera api2 activated and snap camera hdr+ and oneplus 5 camera apps.
Shutter speed
Minimum 0.68s maximum 1/96423s
ISO
Minimum 100 Maximum 19200
Verdict approximate values
In low light condition
Higher ISO [ 500 ~ 19200 aprx] + Higher shutter speed [0.68 ~ 1/200 aprx]
In heavy light condition
Lower ISO [below 500 aprx] + Lower shutter speed [1/200s ~ 1/96423s aprx]
Camera Api2 advantages
Raw image capture support
In depth manual mode control

It's like this with all the camera apps that have avaible the raw format
At first I was thinking that the problem it's present because I usa a micro sd, but the image gets mad even without it.
I'm on the last lineage build by Higway Star

Maybe due to changing roms in mobiles the camera driver can get into buggy, not confirmed yet.
If you want Camera with Raw capture try "snap camera HDR" with force HAL1 enabled in-app setting.
If you looking for completely manual configuration try camera api2 ON in-app setting.
[camera api2 HAL3 vs HAL1 screenshots]
I can't find force hal1, sucks.
At least the manual controls it's a very sweet thing

Did you check it out properly? It is in-built in app itself.

With camera api2 raw fails as it is not supported in P2 right now. But without camera api2 or with Hal1 enabled you can capture raw image in DNG format.

A Guide/FAQ For Note 20 Ultras Camera/Video Features?

I seem to have a hard time finding a thorough guide/wiki/tutorial/FAQ that goes through and can explain all the different camera and video recording settings.
Like what is video stabilization and when is it best to use a resolution/frame rate that allows for it? When would you want to use 1080p 120fps, especially in light of it then not allowing certain other features to be used? When best to ensure to use a resolution/fps setting that allows tracking auto-focus to be on? When would you want to be able to use the HDR10+ feature at the expense of being limited to a lower frame rate? Is 8K video recording really even practical and for what? Etc.
I personally tend to keep my video recording to 1080p 60fps because I much more prefer the smooth motion when recording regular home/family video moments, but then I'm sure there's circumstances that'd I'd be better off at a lower frame rate and then being allowed to have some other useful feature on.
