I made a comparison test between the 2 back camera sensors - OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion

Maybe useless, but I made a comparison video test in low light for both back sensors. Second sensor has much higher maximum ISO. I don't know if it uses 4 pixel to 1 also for video recording (it does for photo).

How do you activate or use the upper sensor ? The 20 MP one.? I am able to access the lower camera only through the OOS camera app. Thanks.

It's explained in the video, you need to activate it via code. You need to do this after every reboot as far as i know.

I know how to get into this mode with *#*#1597#*#* but how do I switch between the back lens 0 and 2? I can only switch between back 0 and front 1. How to I switch to back 2?

If you press the camera switcher button, it changes from 0 (main) to front (1) to back secondary (2) and then back to main camera.

Only after putting the code every time right?

zoom x13 Oneplus 7 Pro

hi the community i discovered something on the oneplus 7 pro there is actually a hidden zoom x13 i explain how to have it
so it's very simple, you go first on the application "phone" and you typed the code *#*#1597#*#* you will be in test mode of photo sensors then press 3x on the front camera then you turn on the x3 telephoto lens but, as you will see, the photo application will be in 1x format; just zoom in 10x and you'll have gained a 3x zoom : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBgiz-VGa7c
sorry if my english is bad i use google translation i hope you understand my post
Nice find
Interesting! Cheers
This doesn't seem to make sense to me.
When I open the camera app by itself, I can always select the 10x zoom.
And actually, now that I'm testing this, my bottom lens doesn't seem to be used at all, even for 3x zoom.
For example, if I launch the Camera app, press the "single tree" icon (3x zoom), and put my finger over the bottom lens, I can still see everything just fine, because it seems to be using the middle lens. Why would this be?
I'm on Unlocked 9.5.6.

Maybe it's the image stabilisation?
How is the quality compared to 3x?
It's strange because the Reno released a phone with 10x zoom, what if they were planning on releasing it here

if I understand correctly, the telephoto lens does not come on when you zoom in?
if this is the case you must be on the lens: back (double) (0) you have to press the front camera button 3 times to reach the rear lens (telephoto) (2) if you are in the mode available by the code

for me when i switch to 3x zoom with my finger on the telephoto its fully covered.
also 9.5.6. not unlocked.
The telephoto lens is used when you tap the single tree icon, BUT:
- it switches to the main lens, when the telephoto lens is covered by something
- it also switches to the main lens, if it's too dark
- and it switches to the main lens, when you are too near to an object (you can't use it as an macro lens because of that)

Thanks for the clarification. You can see the clear difference - and therefore that the lense is used - if you do the switch and then either move up your finger from the bottom or from the top over the lense

Thanks, I can confirm that it was switching when I covered the lens, and also WITHOUT covering the lens but it was in a very dimly lit room, so that explains it!
All this being said, you can still just tap the tree, then tap the 3x and zoom all the way to 10x without having to input the dialer code.
This code doesn't work for me
this code not working ?
The code works Fine. On OnePlus 7 Pro Oos 9.5.11 and it does what the op writes.
Works. Interesting
That would be 30x zoom not 13x.

Already know that you can mod stock cam config to go all the way to 80x.

[Q] How to always open rear camera, even if the front camera was opened last time?

It is utterly annoying if the camera launches into front camera instead of rear camera, because it was exited last time with the front camera active.
Which configuration file stores the last used camera? I would like to create a shell script to automatically set front camera to rear camera each 5 minutes using text substitution.
(Or is there an even better method? If so, which?)
Of course, one could alternatively just pay attention each time when exiting the camera, but I would like to automate it to add that bit of convenience.

Question about the Mi Mix 3 camera

Hi all, can someone verify this for me?
There are two cameras on the Mi Mix 3 yes?
One is the normal (wider) angle camera, and the other a more telephoto camera?
So, covering the top camera should give me a black screen (finger on it) when I use 1x zoom?
And switching to 2x zoom will give me a clear shot? (finger not on it)
I realise that this isn't happening anymore and 1x and 2x have images coming from the lower camera. Is this by design? Am I misunderstanding the idea of the two cameras?
Has the latest MIUI update broken something or was this how the camera works all this time?
As far as I can tell, every mode uses the bottom lens, regardless of zoom. Only portrait mode uses the top lens.
it's working fine, but i think you just need to go into pro mode and switch lens manually if you want to use tele, otherwise it's switching back and forth on it's own just tried it.
did more tests and it seems that the lens does indeed switch to the telephoto lens now once i zoom past 2.0x in the default photo mode. i also discovered that if it detects an obstruction in the 2.0x lens, it will fallback to the wide lens with a poor digital zoom. (I put my finger on the telephoto lens to check if it was working)

Main Camera stopped working, how to make the wide angle camera as main camera to be used by apps as default ?

I have to login to my bank account and I need to scan a photoTAN image but the app by default uses the main camera which is broken, is there any way to make the wide screen back camera as the default one to be used by apps on my phone?
Any ideas anyone?
I'm also searching for the same issue but no answer
This post may give you an idea:
Change default rear camera?
Hey guys, My main rear camera is broken and I was wondering if my default camera can be changed to the wide-angle lens, because the wide angle lens works fine. The phone is a Moto X4 and it has a dual rear camera set up. So my question is...

OnePlus 7 Pro Pop-up Camera Opens with a custom rom but not stock.

My OnePlus' front popup camera had stopped working ( it would not Pop-up) and since the battery health was bad, I switched to a new phone.
So I tried flashing crDroid 9, the inbuilt camera app had 4 zoom option ".7x", "1x", "2.2x" and another "2.2x".
when I click on the third option the front camera popped up but the preview is still of back camera, and when I try to switch to front cam it simply goes blank for a second and shows the back cam preview.
So my question is,
is it a problem with persist.img? if not are there any fixes?
