Slow motion video under water (and "problem" with flickering lights in slo-mo)

Slow motion video under water (and "problem" with flickering lights in slo-mo)
Took my S7e into the gym, and went into the pool with it. A friend recorded a video of me diving into the water, looks really interesting! Also, so far no water damage from having it with me playing around underwater... :good: The speaker will sound odd for the next 2h or so - but after it is dry again everything works as before!
To view the video best, download it from here (inside the browser it sometimes (depending on your machine) it looks choppy): https://goo.gl/photos/7ir81Gj6rDPoruWQ9
The flickering is due to the lights flickering at 50Hz, in daylight there is no flickering in slo-mo!
Besides, do your slo-mo shots look the same (flickering at most indoor lamps)?
Awesome.
Only issue I have with slo mo is that the sound is way off. First kick is normal speed and the next is slowed down, youll hear the sound of me hitting the bag like 2 seconds late

the flickering is for neon light because it blinks very very fast that human eyes don't see!!!

Nougat and Low Light Performance on Main Camera

The focus on my camera died the morning after I got Nougat. I turned it in to T-Mobile for a refurb.
The refurb is garbage on so many fronts but worst of all the low performance of the main camera mode is atrocious. Even in shadows in decent light it is super dark. I can correct it with manual mode but if I take the same shot with the wide angle camera, it's super bright. The two cameras are night and day. It's a frustrating experience.
I'm trying to determine if Nougat screwed up the camera's low light or if this refurb just sucks.
*update*
Factory reset fixed everything. Not sure why factory reset fixed the low light performance of the camera app's automatic mode, but it did. Hopefully this will help anybody else who runs into this extremely random issue.

Strobe effect on slow mo

Hi all, just looking for a suggestion as to what could be causing my issue.
long story short, got phone yesterday afternoon gmt, by time I got chance to play with it was around 9pm, anyway I took a quick video with 960fps, good results but bit grainy, probably due to sun beginning to set.
No problem, says it needs good lighting, I'll try it indoors later, so fast forward a couple hours and I got good lighting indoors, photos and video coming out nice and clear, but whenever I try slow mo I get an effect as if my light is on a strobe setting.
Not sure if it's faulty or just really crappy in artificial light, I suppose I can find out soon enough, but wondered what you guys thought
What kind of light do you have? Certain lights such as flourescent actually "blink" 50-60 times a second depends on what hz the electricity in your country is. It's kinda a given that those blinks will be easily distinguished when you slow down time 32 times. All artificial lights flicker but some can be used in high framerate videos while others can't. Even the sun flickers but there is currently no camera able to record in a framerate high enough to see it. When they film in high framerates in a studio setting they actually sync the flickering with the camera so all frames it records are when the light is on.
I think some types of LED lights don't flicker (but be careful, some do) so you can try with them if you have.
Incandescent lamps won't flicker for sure, you can try using them.

Ok cool, its definately the lights in the house, just tried it with curtains open n lights off, no strobe.
So i guess im limited to doing slow mo in sunlight or need to buy new light bulbs lol
I have led lightbulbs upstairs, all downstairs ones are old school filament type bulbs, due to hours i work i best get looking for some flicker free lights

Slow camera low light

Hi,
I just bought Mix 3 and I have a question, does anybody experienced issue with slow camera in low light as well ??? It's very slow In low light when I want to make a picture for example at 7 PM outside or in low light room. For example on video mode I don't have the issue.. I restart the data of camera app as I was looking on internet how to fix that but nothing change still it's very slow. Also I checked Gcam if it's same issue and it's also slow in low light.
MIUI version 10.02
Thanks for help
Yes, slow focus.
I think its because we have ois.

Light sensor

Hey guys
Do you experience also light sensor issues like wrong brightness in certain environments and the sensor is to slow in adjustment?
Yeah i do, mostly in the camera App. It always gets really dark for no reason.
Yeah, i've noticed this in low-light areas, the brightness goes back and forth a lot but mostly stays lower than expected
Light sensor in xperias is adaptive. If you think that your mobile got brightness wrong in a certain environment just correct it by using brightness slider. After couple of days and adjustments it will get every light situation right.
I find this approach to work better then with other brands even though it takes som time to get it just right
Thanks for all the answers. I can also confirm that the expected brightness is lower and after some days off correction the results are getting better.
