Hello everybody,
Only inquisitive to be aware in the event that it's feasible to change the default camera an application is utilizing? For instance, on my Xiaomi Mi 9T, it involves the zoom lense in Google Meet, which sucks as I truly do introduce stuff by means of Camera and really would like to utilize the super wide lense. Unfortunately, Google Meet doesn't permit to switch the camera utilized (other than from front-camera and first back camera)
Is there any application/Magisk module/setting to change the request for the various cameras so that applications first utilize the super wide lense?
Much appreciated

I'm in need of a rangefinder, and was wondering, why not my always handy Leo?
Since it has a focusing function for the camera, it must have some sort of a sensor for measuring distance - or whatever algorithm it uses might be calibrated for actually displaying the(approximate) measured distance.
I would pay for a usable app.
Did a quick search of the Leo forum, no returns for "rangefinder".
Thanx
Cannot help you with a range finder tip, i don't think this is possible with a focusing camera, but why not google disto.

So I have this GE Smart Series T145 digital camera. Not a bad little device for the price, but the software in the camera could use refining. For instance, I can change the shutter speed, but it resets to default after every picture. It would also be nice to create and save my own presets, and have other features a simple rewrite of the gui could enable.
Of course, I could spend $500-1000 on a real camera that would have those features. Just wanted to know first if anyone has heard of any less expensive cameras that have user made roms. There doesn't seem to be anything for my model, not even a firmware update.
I'm contemplating the purchase of a Pixel 4a. While I'm aware Google's machine-learning auto-everything camera is widely regarded as wonderful, there are situations in which I want to take fully manual pictures with no, or minimal automatic postprocessing. I should probably get a real camera, but I don't always do what I should.
I'd like to know if the following items work, particularly with the opencamera.org app, but perhaps with others as well:
RAW capture
Manual focus
White balance to arbitrary CCT rather than a small number of presets
Manual exposure (what's the longest and shortest available?)
Manual ISO (what's the lowest and highest?)

That's an enhanced version of the factory camera app, which looks useful. It's not what I'm asking about.
What I'm asking about is camera2 API apps like pl.vipek.camera2 ("Manual Camera") and net.sourceforge.opencamera ("Open Camera"). The latter is free and open source if anybody with a Pixel 4A would care to try it out and report on functionality.
I bought a Pixel 4a. Running the factory ROM updated to Android 11, I have answers. It all works:
RAW capture: yes
Manual focus: yes
White balance: lowest 1000K, highest 15000K
Manual exposure: shortest 1/73470s, longest 10.2s
Manual ISO: lowest 55, highest 7111
Hello, my question is not even a little orthodox, it may seem silly but for me it is a real problem.
My Lenovo Vike k6 k33a43 (Brazilian Variant) phone recently had its rear camera with no focus at all, so it was removed, only that some apps cannot select the front camera, that is, a black or white screen depending on the app, I know that to change this in the Lineage OS source code I just don't know where to start I program in C # desktop applications.
An example is my bank's application for some reason I can't use the front camera to scan a qrcode to make a transaction and this is frustrating.
Ok I could buy a camera on Aliexpress but with the devalued BRL it is not viable for me.
Sorry if my question was not clear, my native language is not English
Hello,
does this phone support the Camera2API module? I frequently use OpenCamera and FilmicPro on my Honor 10 so I was wondering if I can do the same with Honor 20. If possible, could someone send screenshots from the 'Camera2 API Probe' and 'Filmic Pro Evaluator' apps?
Thank you.
Ok, so I got ahold of this phone and I tested out what it can and can't do regarding these functions. The result are are not terrible but not great either.
Camera2API
Here is the full report from the Camera2 API Probe. It's hard to read compared to the Android app, but here is my summary: It supports resolutions up to 48MP. It supports manual exposure (ISO/shutter). White balance too. The biggest caveat: no RAW support. You can't shoot in RAW with 3rd party applications like OpenCamera. Manual exposure works, you can also use the wide angle camera with manual exposure controls.
FilmicPro / OpenCamera
Here are the screenshots from the FilmicPro Evaluator app for all of the cameras available. In this case most of the features are supported. The EIS works only up to [email protected] though. You can't shoot 120fps videos with third party applications. The biggest caveat - no Cinematography Kit (aka LOG profile) support. I'm guessing this is related to the RAW format compatibility but I don't actually know. Same goes for OpenCamera, the color profile setting isn't available for video mode. Also, the EIS doesn't seem to work on OpenCamera for some reason.
(here starts the rant)
Honestly it's not bad (better than the P30 for example) but I don't understand why they disabled the RAW shooting option. I don't actually understand why they would limit the API at all for a phone at this price range. Especially when my Honor 10 (which was relased 1 year earlier) has this option. My guess is that it messes with their ****ty marketing gimmicks like 'Ultra-sharp 48mp mode' etc. This phone is good, but Huawei always makes a lot of specific enhancements with their software, and thus the options for customisation are limited. It's not a bad thing for "regular" customers that don't care about features like this, but I think they should allow the enthusiast to do their thing if they want to. It's going downhill since they stopped giving out bootloader unlock codes. While Huawei makes good phones, I feel like they are going more the closed-up iPhone way, and unfortunately this isn't something that suits me. I'll probably look somewhere else for my next phone - something like OnePlus (if the situation doesn't change).
If you have any other questions about the camera, or phone in general, feel free to ask.
