Hi,
is there a way to increase the camera 2xzoom to e.g. 4xzoom?
maybe in the registry, like adding new shot-modes?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the zoom is digital (ie. not optical). So there's really no difference in taking a 2x-zoomed pic versus a 1x-zoomed pic magnified 200%. So, 4x-zoomed pic would just be a 1x-zoomed pic magnified 400%.
Bring your digital cam if you really want serious pics.

Yes that is right. In fact if you want digital zoom anyways, take photos without it and magnify them on the PC. The quality most likely will be better, especially if you use special programs like PhotoZoom.
And the last part is most important. Sensors and lenses of phones' cameras are crap compared to any real (serious) compact camera.
Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Sony Xperia Z5 come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).

It's okay, but cant do a close up / macro picture
On daylight it is better than S7 but on low light you can just use 8 mp to take good pictures and it is not as great as s7
the picture quality is good, but the post processing is horrible.
i dont know why my old samsung s6 with Exmor R camera (Made by sony) can create more sharper and detail pictures (you can see it while zooming the photo, not when capturing), while my z5 creates more unnatural sharp image (Oversharpen) and horrible when zooming it (zoom the photo, not zoom when capture).

Daylight images are good with fine and realistic details even on 100 % crop
Minor issue are edges cause not that clean and sharp.
Daylight picture quality is one of the best today,for me better than S7 even.

Actually the S6 and S7 oversharpen more than the Z5. At 20MP the Z5 doesn't have too much sharpening or noise reduction which makes the flaws in the lens more apparent. Some other smartphone cameras try to compensate for it by using an unsharp mask and then smearing it with noise reduction. The only time the Z5 is oversharpened is in 8MP mode and 1080p video mode, but not as much as other phones.
I think its horrible. Samsung phones have waaay nicer colors and the Z5 camera takes very dark pictures.
as xperia big fan
i think Z2 is the best xperia camera
used s, arc s, p,v,z, z1, z2, z3, z5 and xperia x
today i took 2 photos
1 with Z5 and 1 with oneplus 3 inside the home with lights on.
Z5 camera reflected to much light off the wall .
actors in TV were not seen at all by Z5

i agree
Can someone post some pictures including lowlight pics taken with xperia z5 with nougat 7.1.1? I want to know if the camera produces better picture in 7.1.1 compared to 5.1.1.
Thank you in advance
For me it seems the pictures look the same. Did not compare in detail and don't have examples at hand though.
I'm really happy that I gave it away, don't want it back.
I honestly expected a lot more. Sony makes cameras for other devices while putting their average on their own.
Just remove your lens to change everything.
Sony's lens camera for mobile is terrible.
Ive seen some of the photos that other people have taken with the P20 Pro and they look amazing.
I'm no professional photographer and don't pretend to be one. I just want to take photos of my children when on holidays, days out, events and birthdays etc.
Every photo I take seems like a good shot, until you zoom in on the photo, then the image becomes pixelated. Another thing that seems to happen a lot is colour fading, every shot looks washed out or like it's lacking vibrant colours.
I've got the Huawei P20 Pro mainly because the camera was classed as the current best in mobile phones. I feel like I either don't understand the camera or that doing something wrong.
Could anyone offer any advice.
Depends on shooting mode and how much light you have. If I try to shoot in Aperture Mode in low light, I get pixelated photos as well. From my 1 month experience with the phone, I can tell you the camera is far inferior to that of other current flagships (especially when shooting pictures of people), mostly because of software overprocessing. It will usually oversharpen the crap out of everything (especially when using the 3x zoom lens) and will destroy skin texture (regardless of beauty mode selection). I get wildly inconsistent quality across. While some pictures end up fine, most will look a lot better on-screen than on a computer. Also, the pictures will almost always be brightened after processing, which means that what you're seeing on screen when taking a picture is not how the final photo will look. I'm coming from a Samsung S7 and its camera provided very predictable (and sometimes maybe even better than Huawei's) results, where what I saw on screen is what I got. I'm quite disappointed by this phone. They really need to fix their software, but I doubt they'll ever do that.
I tend to just use the standard AI and have got (IMHO) some lovely pics without filters or tinkering. I've started an Instagram of some of my favourite P20 Pro pics - not sure if we are allowed to link to them on here these days ?
That's what I've been doing recently and they seem better than before.
I think we can link pictures as it's not advertising.

I've just started adding a few of (what I consider to be) my best shots.
I will admit, those are some nice photos.
I think I'm going to take some outside shots tomorrow and see what they turn out like.
I'll gladly share them with you, for comparison purposes.
I have the P20 Pro since few months and i compare it with S9, S9+, Pixel 2 and IPhone X, i assure you that this device have one of the best phone's camera in 2018, you can also look in the DXOMark that is the TOP-1, i came from Galaxy S7, and S7 have a good camera very similar with S8 and S9, but the versatiliy of the P20 Pro is far from them, also if you take pictures in sunny days with the 40mpx sensor, you will see that looks like a professional camera, its true that sometimes the IA is overworking the scene, but you can disable on the screen easy

My pro zoom edition just arrived 3 days ago. Before I had the exynos s8+. I am waiting for the bootloader unlock by xiaiomi, but I can already tell you that even with china rom and stock camera it is a big jump
Just few point and shoot pictures (k30 pro zoom edition) with stock miui camera.

Hello Team
Can anybody share few photos of example documents? [newspaper, school-book, book, etc]. Taken indoor [so it means under "mean" light conditions].
For me it is interested how this phone handle such photos.
One thing Ive noticed when I was taking photos of documents/book pages was that it blurs on the periphery. It's clear on the center, but becomes *very subtly* blurry on the outward edges as if you've moved your hand for a split second. I shoot in a well lit room with light (bulb and natural light, and I shoot from the above (natch) so Im not sure why the focus is not uniform and. has blurring on the edges. Also using gcam btw: Twichaya2.

I noticed the same thing in the photo comparison tool from gsmarena.com: https://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=5&idPhone1=10220&idPhone2=10097&idPhone3=9816
I wonder how pronounced the effect is in real world usage, keeping in mind that for some photos of humans, the face is at the edge of the frame.
this is why I asked for real examples. I have seen the same "issue" with many other cameras.
Hello guys,
First of all I love the camera. It is so good but I am facing two issues and would be good if anyone has a solution.
1- When recording a video and zoom between 1.1 - 2.9 the quality is super poor and unusable, however on 1X or 3X the quality is super sharp and great, I am not sure why the main lens act poor when zooming in to 2.9 before switching to the tele lens.
2- taking selfies is great when there is one person or two in the photo but when there are more than 2 in the photo, their faces become so cartoony with no details, even in day light, this happen also when using the back camera. I am using the standard resolution, no idea if using the 40mb or the 108mb will make any different
Other than these, the camera is great!

1. That's normal. 1.1 to 2.9x zoom is digital zoom. Don't expect the same quality as when you didn't zoom.
2. Use group selfie or disable bokeh from your selfie shots.
