Photo modes (helpppppppppp) - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Does anyone remember a photo mode where you would hold the camera in place and a person would walk through your scene and it would take 4 or 5 shots and superimpose the latter shots onto the first image creating a picture wih 4 or 5 clones of the same person.
What was that photo mode called? can I install it on the note 8?
Here is an example I found while searching for the name

Sorry.. I had a Xiaomi phone that did that.

You could do a panoramic shot and just pause and let the person relocate before you continue swiping

That mode is called Drama. I have been trying to locate it as well since the Note 3 but cant seem to locate it. The modes were better when they were preinstalled but now that we have to download those modes it gets tricky because you tend to forget which modes you had on previous devices. The only thing close I've found was a Motion app made by Sony in the Play Store. It's not native to the camera app like Drama was but it'll give you the end result you're looking for.

[Q] Best shot feature

Anyone know how to use this feature? I'm looking in the gallery at some pictures I took with the phone, but I don't see an option. Is there something I need to turn on in the settings?
Also trying to use it, but it never suggests the "best shot"...
It happened once for me. It's more hit or miss I think. But what I think is best shot will occur mainly with a person. So if the person moves while you're taking a photo, it'll have another photo that may be better

I'm fairly certain it's only an active feature. When you go to take a picture, it actually takes multiple pictures and you can choose right then which is the best. I know the HTC One had something similar to this, and there's a video showing how theirs works, so I'm assuming it's the same on the X2.
I'm going with the guess that they haven't rolled out that feature to their camera or gallery app yet.

It is definitely on the phone, I've gotten it once. Their recommended picture had a slightly less blurry hand then on what I snapped
It didn't ask me after I took the photo but when I went to view the image?

Yea i think that is right

Note 5 camera?

Has anyone pulled the .apk and gotten it to work? I just want manual shutter. Picked up the S6a just for battery, almost got the N5 just for manual mode.
I could have sworn the S6 allowed for a "pro" more controlled experience. Is Manual exposure not anywhere; I recently just got my S6 back from repair so I haven't had much hands on use. I'll go ahead and check myself, but I could have sworn that it was advertised.
Also, I think this goes along more in the Help/Q&A section, but I could always be wrong
Exposure you are correct, I'm referring to shutter. You can have up to a 10 second shutter on the N5 which would be badass.
When I was posting on the Q&A, it said that only answers could be posted... I wouldn't mind a discussion also.
Is exposure different from shutter?
Yep... I might want a long shutter with a small aperture vs short shutter with a wide open aperture, the exposure could end up being very similar but very different effects.
Ah! I'm not an avid photographer frankly (I'm sure it will show). I did indeed look around, and yeah you're right no noticeable shutter control. I'll hang around the N5's section. From my memory, someone was able to port N5's functions over to the S6 over here on XDA or over at Reddit. For the apk though, we would need a rooted N5 or OTA file to extract it from likely. If they share similar API's, getting it to work shouldn't be impossible.
I supposed the timer is something entirely different from what you want. I just noticed it and saw the option to set for 10 seconds, but thought I'd ask.
These are a couple examples of what can be done with REALLY long shutter:

Fantastic looking! Looks like there was a system dump for the N5. I could look into extracting what I need from that, but haven't looked into it in detail - yet. Will get to it later when the day settles down.

Looking for Moto X4 best camera app of Play Store

Hello, I am looking for an app for my Moto X4's camera that is better than the one that comes from stock.
I read about Google Cam but I wanted one that could be downloaded from the Google Play Store and that came with already loaded scenes, that is: night mode, macro, landscape, movement, portrait, etc.
I have tried a payment app called "HD Camera Pro" by Best Apps but it does not convince me at all.
Do you know any app for the Moto X4 camera that is the best in the Google Play Store ?.
Thank you very much!
Recommend the one ported from Pixel.

Here is one I used to use with my N5X - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera&hl=en_US
I like it because it is open source

Ok, thank you for your replies.
I'm looking for something like this camera interface:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
It's in Spanish language but you can check scenes built-in in order to select them when you take a picture.
This interface capture was taken from a Galaxy K Zoom.
I want a Android Camera App that you can select one from several scenes built-in.
Any more suggestions?

I bought Camera FV-5 some years ago, but I didn't see any main differences from photos taken by Moto camera so I don't use now.
Here are two sample picture.
Hello, I read the whole thread of this forum -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x4/themes/scrubber-gcam-portrait-mode-camera-x4-t3732834
I have a Moto X4 without root.
Which is the best Google Cam apk for the X4 of Celso Azevedo's blog? Scrubber ?. Arnova?
Which one has got best performance?
I like to use the camera and take a photo in automatic mode, without making many settings.

White balance on selfie camera

The stock app on my S10e does not appear to have a white balance option for the front facing camera, and it doesn't automatically choose it correctly. GCam always creates superior results.
I can't imagine Samsung app devs would let their app be so terrible with selfies. Does anyone else have the same experience? Is there a feedback channel we can tell them?
Like I said on another thread why do you guys feel the need to have and use a front facing camera to take pics of yourself. I'm trying to understand is it a narsasiscic thing going on in this day and age or what?do people fancy themselves that much? not talking about you op or anyome here in particular so no disrespect intended. Just want to understand this need for front facing cameras. I love the s10 plus but the ugly 2 cameras on the front are stopping me from enjoying.and I'm not in love with myself to take selfies and admire my self all day.so the front camera ruins the phone for me a bit

People have always been taking pictures of others, and some have noticed that the cameraman has been missing for centuries.
Now we have a tool in our pockets to take a picture of everyone at once, in an instant. The S10 has a wider lens for even more people.
Every game night, I take a selfie with everyone using the GCam app in portrait mode. When I have a special moment with my wife, its easy to get a photo of us together. It's kind of ridiculous looking back at photos from years ago to know I was a participant, but no where to be seen, not a single photo of me interacting with others.
I took advantage of a sale at Office Depot for canvas prints, and made a collage of a year's worth of selfies:

Question How to create own super wallpapers.?

I am a pro 3D artist azeemdesigns.com and one of the purchasing decisions for this phone (11T) was super wallpapers. I really really liked them. Now i am kind of bored with them. There are only 6. And xiaomi isn't adding new.
If someone could explain the process of adding and coding them to the phone. I'll be happy to develop new wallpapers.
Who's interested.?
I don't think its possible to insert your own. Superwallpapers are rendered locally on the phone, they're not just regular video wallpapers.
However, maybe you could give video wallpapers a shot
(PS I would be interested if you somehow managed it to work)
There are some apks available for super wallpapers. Those are ports for other phones. I was checking them and yes positioning is mentioned in code. But i did find some pictures (maybe preview pictures). Or maybe existing pictures are being moved based gestures and sensors. Need to dig deep.

Video wallpaper is a good idea too. But not same as super wallpapers. I think i will try it.

Good luck dude. Sounds like you already know more about this then me.
There an app called CWLP Custom WallPaper
It's been made for customizing wallpapers and you can literally create super wallpapers but not in the high quality as xiaomi do
I think some one with experience in inversing engineering maybe can know how it works
I think so
Did you managed to get in these photos? can you replace anything inside of them yet ?
