Hi, I'm interested in using third-party camera applications.
I seek above all the following:
It works on Nexus 7.1.1 without rooting.
Record to slow camera videos
HDR of the best quality (for now the Samsung has seemed the best because I do not change the color of the photo too much, the HDR + colors a lot and there are comic photos)
I have already tried the typical Open Camera-Fv-5 DSLR Camera- Bacon Camera .... and they do not give me what I am looking for
Thank you
Camera Zoom FX Premium. It has the best HDR of the third party cameras I've tried due to it using exposure bracketing to create the shot. The exposure bracketing however means the camera is slow in taking a shot, because it has to take three shots and merge them together in software in order to create the image. This also means that moving objects in a HDR image may create ghost images.
HDR+ in the Nexus devices that support it I feel is a better option than even Camera Zoom FX Premium's HDR. HDR+ isn't perfect. It takes a shot quickly but has to spend time compositing the final image, due to how HDR+ works. It does however eliminate the problem of moving objects in a shot. This is because unlike the exposure bracketing of HDR, HDR+ brackets using film speed (ISO). The reason for the amount of time spent compositing the image is due to HDR+ taking ten images with one press of the on-screen button.
I had bought it, but I did not think it was very practical, right now I use Fv-5 and Google camera.
I really like the samsung camera application, because it does not distort the actual color of the photo,
And I do not need to do several photos to have an hdr by software. But I do not find anything similar in third-party applications.
Is there no port of the LG, Samsung, HTC camera that works on a nexus 6?
I'm not aware of any ports of those camera apps. As to the Samsung camera, it uses software to create an HDR effect. Software-based HDR by its very nature distorts the color as the HDR effect is applied to the image. As a result software-based HDR is always going to be inferior to hardware-based HDR solutions.
True, but it is difficult to do 3 photos in a row, without tripod, and many times there will be people, which will result in ghosts.
Which is why HDR+ is better than exposure bracketing HDR. I do believe I said as much in a previous post.
Ok coming from Samsung , HTC, Asus and iPhone (I know I here you gasp)
I pretty much use my rear camera alot for work purposes, no selfies
Mostly its point and shoot I do and I know the camera on these are for ppl getting the right shot manually due to the settings
Have tried apps on this phone Like :
Camera FV-5 (same kind of results)
Open Camera (which seems to stay active in the background)
Now heres my question if you quickly take a photo, point and shoot (focusing first) using highest resolution
Once you zoom into the taken picture, its all grainy even if its took about 3-4 feet away from you
Now, if you take the same picture with monochrome its a better pic and if focusing on say a bottle with writing
Its more visible to read compared to the colour as the colour looks like its a water painting
Are you guys getting the same results or know preferred settings to use?
Thanks
Try to set the resolution to 12mp to enable the 2x "optical" zoom.
The color sensor is only a 12mp one, the monochrome sensor has 20mp.
If you enable 20mp in settings, the camera will make a monochrome and color photo and merge them into one. This is also the reason why the 20mp photos are a bit blurry or too bright on edges.
So, use 12mp and the grain should be mostly gone.
Here are three shots by me:

https://imgur.com/a/RbEdeiI - and the same with 2x optical zoom.

Everything stock, 8.0.0.370 on VTR-L29C432, stock EMUI camera.
Can you show some examples?
Desk is about 4-5 feet away from me when taking these shots
Sunny outside
Just normal photo and putting focus on the bottles as shown (seen in zoomed photo)
You can clearly see they look terrible apart from monochrome
No settings have been touched apart from resolution
Zoom is about 4.6x
Monochrome
12MP
20MP
Zoomed in
I put some crap on the desk but if you can see the text is visible on some stuff to give you an idea
Hi guys,
To my surprise, my brand new P30 Pro camera's app doesn't come with 16:9 aspect ratio resolution which is a shame...
My old Mate 10 Pro had it and I can't see myself watching my picutres with those 2 white squares on the left and right of my pictures...
Let me link you an official thread about this issue: https://uk.community.huawei.com/mate-20-series-20/who-would-like-the-option-to-take-16-9-aspect-ratio-photos-with-your-huawei-phone-1520
For me, it's a bummer...
If any of you is able to "mod" the app to get back that 16:9 aspect ratio with high resolution, please advise ! Or any kind of contact to Huawei cuz this doesn't look THAT complicated to add back..
Regards
Yea, that would be awesome to have this. A phone this expensive doesn't have this crucial aspect ratio? How come? Don't people watch photos on tvs or monitors? 16:9 should be the standard for casual photographers.
It still has a full screen photo mode, but you have to lower the photo megapixels from 10 megapixels to (full screen) 6

Full screen is 19.5:6 aspect ratio, which is far too wide. The point is to view the photos on TV or monitor in full screen. This aspect ratio is rather useless, it crops too much. The camera is nice, but if I knew it doesn't have 16:9, I'm not sure if I would buy this phone. Now it's too late, already bought, and I'll have to spend a lot of time to crop thousands of photos I'm doing on my trips.
Also the default gallery application in which I can crop the photos has a bug - if I do a 4:3 photo in 40 megapixels and crop it to 16:9 in the default gallery application, it changes the photo resolution to 3648x2050 from 7296x5472, so I need to use some external app for that.
So if anyone is reading this:
DO NOT CROP THE PHOTOS WITH DEFAULT APPLICATION

Use Google photos app:
7296x5472--->7296x4102
40mp--->29,9mp

if you mean this one:
getdroidtips.com/download-google-camera-for-huawei-p30-pro/
I tried it. Sure it makes the photos, but it has lots of issues:
1. Camera switching doesn't work, I can only use the main camera. No wideangle, no tele
2. After zooming in the app crashes
3. Max mp I can get in 16:9 mode is 8.3, not 29.9
4. No portrait mode and lots of other modes from stock application are also missing.
So sure, I can do photos with 16:9, but what's the point if I can't use most of options that hardware provides? Cropping for hours or days after making thousands of photos is still the only option here.
There is not good solution, which is really sad.
And if you mean an app for cropping, I already found a better one - Simple Gallery and PicTools for cropping in bulk.
News about this topic? I have just faxed
Faced this on my Huawei and I feel really frustrated!

Please someone find me a Google Camera port for s10 exynos?I installed the unofficial LineageOS 17.1 to my galaxy s10 device.But the stock LineageOS camera app doesnt allow me to use camera's features (wide angle lens, portrait and night mode etc.) so i need a Google Camera port for s10 exynos.Thanks
With Emu 10, you had to go into the setting on the camera to change down from 40MP so you could use the wide-angle lens.
On Emu 10.1 you now do not need to, but...there is no option to change the settings to 40MP.
My question is, how can you find out what lens or megapixels you are now shooting in.
