[Q] [9001] can anyone improve macro for camera?

hi all.
do you know that stock camera for i9001 can take pictures closer than film videos?
after i find it i was interested is there some app that can film videos in macro... i download LGcamera free from market and find out that this app can focus in preview to macro objects even closer than stock app, for distance about 2cm! try it, it is amasing! but it can't film video in macro! afrer pressing the shutter button focus go away for 50cm or something...
i find this strange, why macro is different in different apps and why app can focus for macro filming in preview, but can't actually film a video? it is seem to be just a software issue.
can anyone please fix it in firmware? it will be really cool to take macro pictures and videos in HD720p

P20 pro raw photos not working on third party apps

Dear all,
I noticed that I cannot use any third party app to capture RAW photos. I tried Footej Camera, Open Camera, Adobe Lightroom, VSCO, Lumio Cam and everything I could find. I cannot enable raw photos with any of them. Footej support contacted me and told me that they can try to find a workaround from the log file I generated, it seems that this phone does not support Android API. Do you guys have any knowledge about this?
The only app that seems to record some sort of RAW file is Bacon Cam, but this does not have support for the telephoto lens, and all the raw photos with zoom, are actually cropped from the 40 mpx sensor.
Freedcam can do raw: https://t.me/joinchat/BdeA6xCXJ-DvG0wT_kjW-A
Even the stock camera app will not give you a raw file from the telephoto lens. You can't use zoom when you enable RAW in Pro mode.
Thank you, I tried Freed am and unfortunately it does not let me use raw mode, only jpeg.

48mpx camera doesn't work after messing with gcam

Hi guys! I tried some Gcam ports and after installing a conf file in the xcam6_beta5 app, my 48mpx camera just stopped working even in the stock app. Other Gcam apps can use it but it just magnifies the image and produces zero-quality pictures. What is more, when I open the stock app and go to the 48mp option, it uses the telephoto lens and captures a 6000x8000 resolution picture. I can't imagine how possible is this. Can anyone suggest some solution? FYI, the other two lenses work fine.
Edit: Just found out that standard portrait mode uses 48mpx camera but magnified like 3 times in the stock app.

Any way to manually switch to telephoto lens for video?

I want to use the telephoto because it offers better bokeh than the main but I haven't found a way. Tried gcam but switching the video from main to telephoto crashes the app.
It's been said the main cam can switch to the telephoto if the lighting's good but that's too unreliable.
Anyone know a workaround?
Thanks!

Question S21 Ultra 20x video zoom restriction unlock?

Hi i see in picture mode you can do the full 100x zoom but video mode has been restricted to only 20x? why lol is there a way to bypass this or unlock the feature anyone have any luck? i got my phone yesterday the zoom is crazy on this phone now if the video had the same zoom it be even more crazy. What it needs is min at-least 30x zoom unlock since the lens is clear at this zoom so there must be a way to actually unlock that i would say.
You can always press and hold the photo shutter button and it will take a video instead, I think at only 1080p though.
In video mode at 100x zoom?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It took me literally 15 seconds to test that myself. Yes, it works at 100x.
Another way is to simply zoom in picture mode and use screen recorder to record the screen that works too at 100x zoom
