Hey guys, I'm new here, so I'm sorry if this has already been covered.
I have an unrooted international version of the One plus 6, with the pixel camera app side loaded.
I was just tinkering in the camera settings and I noticed that the pixel camera will, by default, only capture images in both 4;3 & 16;9 resolutions, utilizing anywhere from 2.8mp - 12mp on the rear camera.
With that in mind, one could make the assumption that the software isn't utilizing the potential of the hardware. (I'm also curious to know how the second lens is cooperating with it).
Basically, I'm just wondering if there is a way to fully utilize both the 20mp and 16mp sensors within the pixel camera..
Any feedback would be awesome! Also, if I'm being dumb by asking this because I'm not educated in this subject, then please, enlighten me so that I may learn ?
Thank you guys!
I don't think it's possible, for a simple reason : The Pixel 3 only has one sensor, and only 12 MP. So, GCam only uses one sensor, and handles 12 MP
But to be honest, it still produces pictures that are vastly superior to the OOS cam, so, for me at least, not a big deal !
no
Use xtrme's gcam mod! Though the settings say that the limit is 12 MP, my photos thus far have always been saving in 16.3 MP (100% JPEG quality vs 15.9 MP on 95% default) unless you do some zooming (it will be scaled back to 12 MP but still very very usable). AFAIK that variant of GCam was specifically tinkered to work with OP6.

The Xtrme's version is indeed pretty good ! Used it for some time.
I feel like the Advanced 1.4 from Arnova is better though, it even has Focus Tracking, which is the best thing ever
Just checked it, the photos save at 16.3 MP with 100% JPEG quality on 1.4 Advanced too. Note that i'm using the OP6 config that is available for it.
Still don't know if it uses both cameras though. On GCam and OOS Cam, the viewfinder only uses the bottom camera, that seems normal.

You can also get the config file, put it in a folder names "GCAM/Configs" on your storage, and double tap near the shutter in the app to enable it ! (The black part between the shutter and the link to the photos app for example)
These are all great suggestions guys, thank you!
Does the advanced 1.4 and the Xtreme mod allow for shooting in raw formats?
I'm trying to set my phone up to be the best point and shoot it can be, for the sole purpose of stock photography. I know both the pixel camera and the oos camera shoot in raw (oos pro mode is a beast and has outperformed the pixel manual settings consistently but is too cumbersome and doesn't shoot in true 16:9)

Hi
How have you set your camera ? 12 or 20mb ?
Thx
20mp
12MP RGB
Gesendet von meinem MHA-L29 mit Tapatalk
You can select 20 megapixel as the resolution for the rear cameras to shoot, it combines data from both cameras so you can shoot in color too at 20 MP. This can be changed however you like in the camera settings.
I know I searched the internet for this before I bought one because I wanted to be sure. Haha.
In low light better to use 12,cause at 20 mp the image get little bit blurry when mixing 2 images at low shutter speed.
Outdoor u wont be worry to use 20 all the time.
They set the default mp at 12 for a reason

A 12 mp sensor cannot shoot 20 mp images, that's impossible. The camera software can boost it to 20 mp though using info from the 20mp monochromatic sensor. Which gives a decent result I have to say!
I am no camera wiz, just a point to and shoot guy. Nor am I a photo conesour in terms of evaluating a good vs great photo. But, I can tell when a photo stinks. Mostly, I just want to set it and forget it and have the best all around chance at good, clear pics.
All that said, I set to 12 and 20 MP and damned if I can see a difference. And it is a very challenging light situation where I just tested (both, IMHO, show off the great camera in this phone). I am outside on patio near midnight, with only light being from a string of Christmas lights in background d an little ambient light from room inside and courtyard beyond the patio. Hard to tell any difference in these two pics. First is the 12 and second is the 20 .. HDR on for both, no zoom.
So what are the situations one would expect 12 to have advantage, same for 20, same for HDR verse flash?

At any rate, contrary to some of the reviews, I think the camera a great with good lightning conditions and pretty good in darker conditions.

A lot of the early reviews were with the pre-release software although some have updated their reviews to reflect that.
I still hear that the camera has trouble with movement in low-light photos causing blurriness. Can anyone confirm that?
I am a photographer and I'm very impressed with my mate 9 camera.
I have used lot of phones but this one is the best by far.
If ur not happy with the auto mode just put it to pro mode and enjoy.

Sure it can, it happens all the time. Let's say this were a conventional 12MP single sensor camera. Would you then be OK saying it can shoot 12MP images? Assuming it had a typical Bayer array color filter, that 12MP sensor really only has 6MP for green, 3MP for blue, and 3MP for red. It does not have 12m full color pixels. Yet that's what comes out of the camera, via interpolation. At least with the Mate 9, it can produce 20 MP of luminance data without interpolation. It's just the chroma data that is at a lower resolution and requires interpolation. But encoding images and videos with lower chroma resolution than luminance is extremely common, because our eyes have much less color resolving capability vs. b&w. See Chroma Subsampling.

Sure, that's basically what I said. This sensor is 12mp (rgb sensor can be boosted to 20mp through interpolation, using the info (captured data) from the 20mp monochromatic sensor. Great results.

The photos are fantastic! To the best of your recollection, would you please share the settings you used in each one. Thanks!
Thats rather hard, I use pro mode and just fool around with aperature, speed and the rest until I'm happy. In auto mode I always point the camera around the subject until I like the lighting and than touch the screen on the point where I want to focus. That's it basically...

You can clearly tell that the camera app on the s8 is trash why is it so bad? Cant they optimize the camera?
Just took the pictures with the same settings without flash left one is stock samsung right one is google pixel 2 app port

Well, I wouldn't say that the stock app is "trash". Last year it was one of the best cameras and now it's trash? Probably not
Stock Cam still takes great pics in normal situations. And in low light it's better than the Gcam-port, because there is less noise in the stock app. But when taking portrait or HDR pictures... Damn that google cam is good!
By the way: There are some versions of the port, where HDR+ works even better than it does in the version with portrait mode(I'm on Exynos). I'm using "Gcam...1.3dAllinone". You can google this version or just wait one or two weeks until, there is a version, that can do both great.

Gcam port is not even better. It's way better than stock Samsung camera apk. Gcam produces more natural pics. Not oversharpened like Sam does. Just try it and judge by yourself. Easy.

I guess it's subjective how you feel about quality.
Attached are both HDR images, one with the latest stable GCam (without portrait mode) and the other taken with the Samsung camera. Both taken without messing around with any settings other than enabling HDR.
The image with the Samsung camera is much bright and less compressed with an ISO of 200, whereas the the GCam image is darker, way more compressed and an ISO of 349.
I noticed the Samsung camera has a faster shutter speed which is interesting considering how bright the image is.
Anyway I'll let you judge the rest for yourselves.
What is the size of those pics? With highest settings i got about 11 MB from Gcam and about 4 MB from Samcam. And try to take photos from same position.

Around 6MB with SamCam and 3MB with GCam.
I have just downloaded the 1.5Beta2 from Arnova so will test this out. Not sure why the image flipped when I uploaded it but they were both same position.
Will post more images after more tests. Probably some outdoor tests.

BTW: HDR is best used in situations, where you have very bright and very dark areas in the same picture. For example taking a photo against the sun. That's where Google's HDR+ really shines. At least in my opinion.

Ok, much better results with GCam this time round. First pic is the GCam result with the following output:
ISO: 50
Shutter speed: 1/454
File size: 2.7MB
SamCam result output:
ISO: 40
Shutter speed: 1/564
File size: 7.8MB
Really interesting to see better colour with GCam. On closer inspection I see that SamCam produces better detail. Might be to do with B-S-G settings maybe.
My GCam B-S-G:
Config HDR+: Nexus 6 Auto
Model: Pixel 2XL
HDR+ Parameters: Default
Let me know if any changes may produce better results.
Otherwise I'm pleasantly surprised. Let me know your thoughts.
Try to use higher setting for hdr+ mode. I got "high" and 100% output jpg file.

Mine results with Galaxy S8 Active T-Mobile
I attached my results using stock and G-Cam. The properties of the pictures are attached too. The G-Cam has an orange basketball mark on the upper right corner.
Both have HDR enabled. I couldn't tell the difference though. ?
I want to ask anyone who knows if it is possible to get from a 48mp sensor, a raw (DNG) file with resolution only 12mp. This phone has a 48mp jpeg option but no raw. All other apps can give raw files but only 12mp.
I made a test. Took 3 images with mi note 2 (23mp), rn7p, and Asus zenphone laser (13mp). I posted a 250% crop of the 3 images and a detail of this crop. The xiaomi"s phones images are from gcam .From the result anyone can see that the details of the rdn7p are equal (if not worse) with the Asus pfone, while the mi note 2 is far more clear. And if you shoot with the 48mp option you won't get a better file in details than the 12 mp photo mode.
So, for me it is hard to accept that there is a 48 mp sensor in rdn7pro unleess someone can explain the questions above.
Every opinion is valuable.
Bro I believe that the Camera is not very much impressive it needs a lot of improvement. Whereas, if you talk about GoogleCamera, it is not a stable build so not to expect more. I was having note 5 pro and compared with the rn7pro picture than i felt no difference, unfortunately the picture was a little bit clear in rn5pro instead of rn7pro. So i think that Xiaomi has to do alot more to improvement in its camera optimisations and you must wait for stable build of gcam which click satisfying images. ?
Anyway, my question has not to do with the quality but with the ability to get a 48mp dng file. All apps give 12 mp dng files
Although Gcam let u choose 48 Mp, the photo is 12 Mp.
Stock camera make real 48 Mp photos (at least on my chinese unit)
I've found a lot of topics but none discuss in fact wich is the best camera app for Redmi Note 7 (Global Version).
I love the camera lens, but the stock camera app not so much... Wich one you thing is the best camera app ever for Redmi Note 7 Pro?
Paid, Ported, Free,...
I'm also very interested in this.
I've never installed a different camera app to a phone before, but the default app doesn't seem very good, and if there's better to be had I want it.
I constantly hear praise for Gcam, but it sounds like there's many different ports of it and no real clear answer on which one works the best.
Bumping this question, and ignoring the fact that the OP is talking about lavender and not violet, but are there any good Camera apps for the RN7P yet?
I've got the China RN7P and i've flashed crDroid onto it, but now that i'm looking into it, i'm having trouble finding a good working cam.
All of the Gcam ports i've tried have failed to recognize the 48MP rear camera, and completely hides the "Gcam settings" option so I can't even re-balance the terrible saturation.
I've also tried crDroid's default camera and Open Camera from the play store, both of which also didn't let the rear camera go above 12MP, and the pictures they took didn't stand up to what even the 12MP Gcams took (minus ruined saturation).
So is there anyway to get Gcam with 48MP and functional settings working on a custom rom, or is there any third party camera app that can recognise the 48MP on a custom rom and get close to Gcam's quality?
and if no to both of those, any idea how long it might take for a working 48MP camera to be working on a custom rom'd RN7P?

Excuse the messy living room pictures, and the fact that they're rotated despite being upright on my pc
but there's no difference at all, even in the properties of the images.
Pretty much same image quality, exact same resolution, and the settings still only says 12MP without an option for 48MP.
The first image is from 'camera' and the second image is from 'portrait' (which for some reason always takes pictures in burst mode).
Also I don't really know what level of quality I should be getting from the RN7P's camera, but I get the feeling they shouldn't be this visibly blurred and noisy.

Hey can you try the Gcam 6.1.021 Note7pro
I can't post the download link because I'm a New member sorry. ?
You have to use portrait mode to get full 48MP photos.
Also to get the best possible results increase the saturation to 1.6 in settings and in Gcam settings enable HDR+ for portrait mode and disable Zoom in portrait mode to avoid the crop that Gcam has on it's photos.

Just a thought here because I might be wrong but could gcam only be finding 12mp because of the pixel binning? Essentially, from what I've read and seen the sensor combines 4x 12mp to create the 48mp. I'm running the rn7 myself and see no difference between 12mp and 48mp in pro mode apart from being able to zoom slightly more on the higher mp shot.

Actually, the main camera sensor is a real Sony IMX586 48MP. The reason you don't see any difference between 12MP and 48MP is because both the photos are coming from a same sensor. It's just that the former one is pixel binned to decrease photo size and capture more light.
I believe True 48 MP mode can only be accessed using proper camera libs. Otherwise you can only get the 12 MP Mode

The front camera resolution is 20 mp and the photos it takes are quite nice. But it apparantly supports pixel binning for low light conditions, but I have never seen it work. Gcam produces way better quality selfies that are 5 mp. So I guess it uses pixel binning or it's just their processing.
Whatever be the case, I want to if anyone has seen pixel binning actually work by the stock camera app.

Hi, late reply but worth mentioning. I have been doing my homework looking into why my 20MP front camera takes 5MP like shots. Well this is because there is pixel binning.
The stock camera app does take 20MP shots but the quality is very comparable to 5MP due to pixel binning. All other camera apps have so far produced real 5MP photos. In the end I prefer to keep the other apps and not waste my time with stock camera as it only gives a higher resolution, along with a heavier file, only to get a 5MP quality picture.
I am looking into finding a possible way to get a proper 20MP photo without pixel binning that may produce better quality photos.
I have moto one 5G(UW) , it's have 48 MP camera but due to Pixel binning it comes out with 12MP picture, i want to disable Pixel binning, is there any App that help me out.
That'll be appreciated if you help me out
