EIS on A51 - Samsung Galaxy A51 Questions & Answers

Hi all, I am in search of a thrid party camera app that can utilize the EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) functionality of A51. I have tried Filmic Pro, Open Camera and Manual DSLR camera app but they failed to provide the EIS functionality, (they do have the option of stabilization but whether it is On or Off, doesn't make any difference). I would be grateful to you for helping me out on this. The reason I need to do this is because the stock camera of A51 doesn't let me change the recording bitrate and framerate. Thanks.

Best manual film camera app?

Hey guys,
im looking for a camera app similar to Camera FV-5 and Cinema FV-5. Are there better alternatives out there to record videos with all parameters manually adjustable?
My Nexus 5x supports 120fps (google camera) but I cant seem to use it in Cinema FV-5, any other slow mo cameras out there?
Thanks

Camera Flat Profile

It is possibile to set camera flat profile using third party apps like Filmic Pro or Camera FV-5? I know I can set it with Samsung Camera app but only for 1080p 30fps. I want to set flat profile for 60fps or 4K, is there a way to do it?
I have the same problem. I found that Cinema 4k has flat profile in 4k but I can not get it to work on my s7, created files are corrupted...
I hope guys from Filmic Pro will add this option in the future. I have DJI Osmo Mobile, they have already implemented support for this gimbal on iOS and soon it will be supported on Android too.

4k Cinematic recording App suggestions P20 Pro

Hi all,
So I am liking the P20 Pro 4k video quality, and think the lack of image stabilization in 4k can actually be a benefit, if one uses a gimbal. It seems like using a gimbal with camera stabilization together can be a problem and actually create camera shake.
What I'm looking for is an android app allows me to lock both the ISO and white balance while filming in 4k.
Initially I thought Filmic Pro was the way to go, but as it is right now I don't think the P20 pro is currently supported by the app at 4k.
Has anyone used either Open Camera or Cinema 4K on the P20 Pro, and can you confirm if locking white balance and ISO is supported.

Thank you @unisol107 for your guide.
I still prefer Open Camera on 4k with EIS - it needs to disable Camera2API for bringing this resolution back in Open Camera settings, otherwise you will get all those strange resolutions - including 4000 x 2000 - , but no 3840x2160.

But many users use gcam which needs cam2api enabled. And their isn't EIS in 4k even in open camera, at least not in Indian version i.e note5pro. This guide is useful for very few people who
1- Don't like the 1080p quality.
2- Want 4k like detail as well as EIS.
3- Want a balance between the two.
Thanks for giving time to read this post and share your views.
Use snap camera hdr, it records the best 4k footage with EIS with camera2 api enabled more info here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77237155&postcount=9

I think that's bcoz of different sensors in global and Indian variant. Mine is indian and it doesn't record 4k stabilized. Not in open camera nor snap camera. Snap camera hdr is my favourite app otherwise.

Open Camera now allows P20 PRO to record video using all lenses

Hi all, you might know this already but I just found out and it seems like absolutely great news for this phone. The latest Open Camera update allows you to record video using every camera on the phone. Even the monochrome one works. No need to have perfect lighting conditions in order for the camera to switch between main and telephoto. You now have a dedicated camera button which lets you select what lens to use. Did you get the chance to try it out? I didn't have any issues yet.

Is the recording quality improved?
I'm not sure. You do have to option to record with maximum 80Mbps but I I find it hard to tell if that is any different from the 30Mbps standard rate. Video looks crisp and clear, colors are very good, especially if you lock the white balance.
Quality seems not as good.. Also can not use Camera API 2, for high res to get extra control in manual mode.
I'm not sure why you can't use camera2 api. For me it works and I can select iso and exposure during filming. I have a CLT L29.

whats your max resolution for recording video using Camera2 API?
For the 40mp lens and the telephoto lens, I have 3840x2160. The monochrome camera however has a resolution of 3264x1840 for video.
Sorry for necropost, but anyone tried open camera for B&W photos? Does it allow exposure bracketing? Raw or at least png for file saving? I would like to try p20 pro just for that monochrome lens...
You can save RAW with the B&W camera but for some reason the pictures appear purple.
