What Camera App for Night sky Pictures / Long Exposure Pictures ? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hey Folks!
I've seen many pictures of people who shot great night sky pictures with a looong exposure time with their S7!
Since I moved to Lineage OS 14.1 I am missing this feature a lot. Is there a App that does a good job for long exposure pictures?
I am using Google Camera with HDR+ but this App does not seem to give me the chance to take good night sky pictures.
Any thought about this?
Thanks in advance!

Just use the stock camera application. Enable pro mode and then set low iso and small shutter speed.

I am not using the TouchWhiz Android, but LineageOS. Therefore the stock Samsung Apps are not available.
I was hoping someone knows a good camera that does a good job. Google Camera does not seem to have a "long exposure"-feature for night sky pics...

Try Open Camera

Thanks for your answer!
I already tried Open Camera. It only allows me to take 1/10s exposure time. Fairly not enough for astrophotography...
Any ideas what to try?
Thanks

Sorry, my answer sucks
I was unaware about the 1/10s shutter speed limit. Can't imagine why I thought it could do longer exposures.

No worries man, thanks for your help anyway!
I am surprised nobody else seems to try to take long exposure pictures with LineageOs...

Try taking system/etc/remissions and copying it to lineage and then unpacking to system zero camera mod. May work

HOLY #$%^ a video camera that does INFINITY focus!

If know how sucky it is to take action shots with the G2 and have it constantly hunting for focus ...
You would pay a million bazzillion freeking dollars for this app:
Open Camera
No it's not my app. I found it on F-Droid apps and then also discovered it is on Play store:
100% Free (unless you are inspired to but the paid donate cheap app too)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera
EDIT: see my post below a few comments down
OMG!! Seriously glad be cause this is the only good camera app I have found that allows video with infinity focus for video on LG G2.
What is INFINITY focus? Well, pretty much everything past 2 meters is infinity. This will work well if panning a video shot of your buddy passing on the ski trail or mountain bike trail or for any panning shots that confuse the G2.
Thought you would all want to know.
Nice find, thanks for sharing

Except, A Better Camera, in infinity mode, retains the last held focus. In other words,

I does not work properly!!!!!
Try this:
1) Put it in Continuous Focus mode in Video mode.
2) Focus on something as close as possible.
3) Without moving camera, put in Infinity focus.
4) Take Video and slowly move away and look to the distance.
Bzzzzttt. It fails.
But then I tried the Open Camera...
Even worse, it also fails!
So ... both work as long as camera is first focussed on a distant object and then switched to Infinity mode. They should both rename it to 'Last Exposure Lock' mode!!!

I really miss fixed focus in video coming from a sammy device, but as a solution i found the camera awesome app, where you can lock focus and exposure even in video, but ofcourse you lose the video modes of the stock camera. And is not free. But i haven't found a solution for the terrible sound of the mic

Maybe you missed the part about this thread being for cameras that use a true 'Infinity' mode.
The camera app link you posted is for another one that does not truly use a proper Infinity mode. Do the test I posted above and you will see that!

That's right. It does not exist. The only way to get the similar effect is as posted in 2nd comment: focus, then set to infinity.
Shame ... because Android camera programmer interface does come with Hyperfocal fixed focus setting that would be good for anything from 2 metres to unlimited.
Hoping someone makes a convenient button to activate that soon.

Really the only thing I'd like is a burst mode. I like that when taking pics of the kids playing. Otherwise I used very few features of my old sammy cameras so the stock app is fine for me. I don't suppose there's any way to add a burst mode to it - any mods or anything?

Same here. I've purchased quite a few and none beat this combo for IQ. We really are at the mercy of the hardware.
Just got Lollipop, retried FV5, and definitely love its manual iso and exposure time control, as well as raw dng support. Processing the dng files with PS express, I get great results in low light, noticeably better than stock hdr+. You can browse thru the dngs with slingshot and share/ send them to PS express
Camera FV-5 only support PNG (for now), not DNG.
I hace FV5 v2.23, not sure whether it is beta still, but it does support everything I said in full resolution on lollipop nexus5.
Check their website or Facebook:

I turned on manual focus via google camera and all has been good for me. Stock 5.0.

[BOUNTY] Port MIUI camera to CM 12.1/13 rom

I dont know about you guys but I belive the MIUI camera is excellent, it has fast shutter speed and image processing. I have tried a lot of camera apps when I was on CM rom and none of them could match it.
Other members are welcome to donate (I will update the post) and to start of I will be putting $10 in the bounty for anyone who can port the MIUI camera to CM.

There are another options, as the OPO cam that has been ported to many devices, or the Cyanogen Camera, that it's which I have been using till now. That last is very good, it has many options to configure, including HDR and Slow-Mo video recording in HD. It's in another thread of xda.

I flashed the one from here (ver 5.8 ) and its working great, with very good picture quality (i would say its like stock miui camera, only some options dont work). What i find very cool is the "moving people" Option. It realy takes clear pictures, even if someone is moving fast (good when you have a little child, which never stands still ). With this Option i get shuttertimes faster than 1/300 sec.
I only miss the HDR PRO Option from miui camera.

Thanks, I was on 3.6 and thought I'll try 5.8 and I can confirm the shutter speed is definitely faster than 3.6 so I'm happy with that. Which rom you on now?
After a few tests, indoor at lowlight, miui takes clearer photos I.e. better focused.
I'll try this when I try cm at some point but I'm still hoping for a miui camera port.

Can somebody port Xperia Z4 camera?
I would also donate 20$ via Paypal for the port.
It's not about the handling/design of the MIUI camera app. It's more about the (probably closed-source) libraries to use all features of the Sony camera/lense and to get the best picture quality.

thanks for recommendation
for me it's far better than MIUI or lenovo super camera, as it doesn't use so aggressive noise reduction which is especially visible at higher ISO levels - for me, MIUI camera smears away way too much detail.
also, the shutter speed seems very good
_________
EDIT: a bug found!
after you run oppo camera, all camera apps use only warmer flash, the colder one stays off, some camera apps don't enable the flashlight at all (even if you force the flash) - like CameraMX. only the system torch works properly
can't tell what's the reason, but as soon as you uninstall the oppo camera app, both leds return to normal work

The Cyanogen Camera does seem to work very well. Thank you for pointing me there. Shutter sound can not be disabled, but that can be fixed.
How did you manage to get slow-motion working?
Will try Opo Cam as well.

Maybe you could point us in a direction where we can get the plugins? They have been taken down due to DMCA claim.
Opo cam is not that good. some plugins crash the app, overall it is not as good as Cyanogen Camera imo. Are there any other good alternatives?
And yes, would be nice if miui cam got ported.
Full Potential
I was looking through some files from the EU weekly ROM and found some interesting files. As you can see in the image there is files in system/vendor/lib such as imx258_HFR_120. HFR stands for high frame rate and 120 suggests 120fps recording while the stock camera app for me seems to record at about 49 fps at 720p. The specifications of the camera sensor found here: http://www.sony.net/Products/SC-HP/IS/sensor1/img/products/ProductBrief_IMX258_20151015.pdf say the sensor is capable of 1080p at 60fps. Can someone please try unlock the full potential of our camera?

Isn't it used for the slow motion? The full HD is indeed consistent at 29-30 fps and 4K videos are nearly half of it, not sure about 720p though.
That's what I mean, I only get 49fps at slow motion and other camera apps can't record at higher than 30fps.
i'm using cm and i miss a feature from my previous smiui.
in smiui i could take pics while pressing volume down.
i like to take a quick photo without wasting time.
i looked around and just found those spy stuff things but nothing like the miui feature.
would it be possible to port this with the original camera ?
i would also donate some money (10€ or more) for a port of these features.

Google camera app?

Anyone else using the Google camera app on their s8 or s8 plus, specifically the snap dragon models? If so what is your opinion of it versus stock camera?
So far from my brief usage of the app I think it far surpasses the galaxy camera app.

Wow. I've taken several photos and compared them side by side and each time the Google camera app has better colors and all around looks better, even my wife and kids think so. I guess since they look so different it's throwing you off, but it is by far not terrible at all, at least in my experience.

Hardly. Are you saying it from the point of view of someone with photography experience? If not, I respectfully disagree entirely to put it lightly. From someone very into photography, it pales in comparison.

Photography experience or not I think it's safe to say and widely agreed upon that Samsungs camera oversaturates images and leaves them far too bright. In my experience tons of details are missing from the s8 stock camera app as opposed to the Google camera app. Perhaps your experience is different for whatever the reason may be. I can't speak on that.

Argue all you want, or go ask someone else with experience. Regardless of your opinion on color saturation, examine more than just that. Blow up an image and zoom in. Fine detail is slaughtered in the Google camera app. You're neutering your camera in order to avoid color saturation lol

any news?
Good morning, very very long time xda luker here, years in fact, so thought I would jump in and join this topic.
Obviously like most of us I've loved using the gcam port on my SM-A530F and now after the 9.0 update I had to go back to the stock samsung camera. So did a bit a of looking around and found this.
MGC_6.1.021_BSG_Arnova_TlnNeun_1.2_test_fix_Exynos.apk
It works. Well I say works, it's extremely buggy, so maybe someone here with a little more knowledge than me can have a play around with it and hopefully (fingers crossed) get it usable.
I'm getting hard restarts when you take a second photo while hdr is processing and in low light conditions it will sometimes crash.
From what I've seen, though I could be wrong and my settings need a tweak but you can't use flash, you can't use front facing camera, and you can't enable motion photo.
Also sometimes when processing hdr it will freeze and you will have to force close and start again.
I'm only after a decent hdr+ back camera, I don't realy care that the front isn't working as to be honest the stock a8 camera is fine for a selfie etc.
Thanks guys, I hope this has helped a little or it might not help at all, but I thought I would share this as it's a version of gcam that doesn't crash on startup and does take photo's we'll sometimes it takes photos. ??

My friend, i found a gcam that works. It can take photos, but after every shot you need to change to video and back. Its zoran gcam. The thing is, the zgcam its just for donators. Look for the telegram group [Galaxy] Official Google Camera and ask for Egoist. He will explain you how to get into the zoran group.

Look for the telegram group [Galaxy] Official Google Camera and ask for Egoist. He will explain you how to get into the zoran group.

The version I mentioned above does the same, you have to go to settings then back to photo before you can take another shot and also wait for hdr processing to finish.
Confirmed working on SM-G930F!
Can confirm this version of a gcam port works on the SM-G930F, I've not played with the settings yet but I can take photos without any problems!
Let me know if anyone has any settings tweaks to improve this.
Enjoy. :good:

This gcam just takes overexposed photos. Too bright. Could not config to be usable.
