Lightroom hdr cam trums gcam!

Just tried out the built in cam in lightroom for diffrent scenarios. It really bests both the built in cam and the gcam for both normal and hdr scenarios. Try adobe lightrooms cam out with HDR enabled. Skip the gcam hype.

Samples or examples please

Just one example zoomed in. This was at night. Much more dnr dynamic range with lightroom cam.
Even more pronounced in daylight though. But test it for yourelf. The image file is 40mb un edited. Any serious photographer on any phone should use the lightroom cam from now on.

Some proof lightroom camera totally BLOWS google camera away
https://s.amsu.ng/0NNCM4jQVwxN

These are max zoom ins. And not even in any hard hdr scenario. In a scenario where hdr is needed the lightroom camera is even more overpowered.

Looks impressive. Cheers.

App link?

Just go into playstore and search for and download
"Adobe lightroom".
Now there would be nice to compair the pixel2 and the note8 with both cams using lightroom hdr camera to really se what phone takes the best pics.

No. Does it require root? Wher can one get it? Id like to compaire it.
- i just tried it! Amazing! BUT SLOW. alot slower than lightroom. Tomorrow i will compair it with lightroom for quality. Sad the final hdr picture from open camera isnt in RAW format. I will post back on details of quality in 24 hrs.

Open camera has raw format.

Yeah but no raw format for the hdr image using hdr function. Lightroom does hdr out of raw files whereas im thinking lr cam is better. But ofc we need to test.

I just tested lowlight.
1. Lightroom preserves more detail and more dnr
2. Opencamera hdr is more compressed ie less detail but less noise. (You could still do manual nrd on lr)
3. No majour differences but a minor plus for the LR cam. LR cam is also quicker.
summary. Lightroom is best. Its quick and gives a bit better quality due to rawfiles in its hdr compaired to opencamera.

Example. Lr on the right. Quite alot more detail zoomed in very much. Opencamera gets very muddy and there is no way you can see each tile on the house.

Hello,
I want to use the ported version of the Gcam on my Galaxy J5(2017) with Android 7.0 and Exynos 7870 Octa. Can someone help me with an Android 7.0 version of this port?
Thank you.

What about the portrait mode in Lightroom, most of the people use GCam only for its exceptional portrait mode option!

Is it possible to use the 20 mp sensor with Google Camera?

Yes, i have camera2api enabled and the quality of the 12 mp sensor is stunning. But... i want to take adventages from the second sensor. I've tried some fu24 mods but all crashes right away you start the app.
Thanks in advance.

20mp is for the depth sensor and Mi A2 doesn't click pictures of 20mp. (i think so).

I'm not sure about this. In the Mi A2 page says that it uses the 12mp sensor to take daytime photos, and the 20mp to take low light photos. I think that the stock camera app can do this change automatically. But I'm not sure if GCAM app can do this too.
Probably GCAM is using the 12mp to every situation, and doing all the work into software, even to manage the portrait (focus) effect, ignoring the 20mp sensor.

It is possible but you will have only 5Mpx, because it's quadra bayer something technology

On latest pixel experience caf I can switch to low night lens (latest arnova gcam). On stock it doesn't work

Wow, do you use a magisk module or something? or only pixel experience?
It takes 20 mp photos or 5 mp like someone suggested?
Could you share samples?
Sorry, a lot of questions, i know, but i'm trying to see if it's worthy install pixel experience for the second lens, or with camera2api enabled on stock i'm fine.

I am using

on
RR7. 1
In options you can enable second camera.
Pictures are 5mpx in size. There is some pink tint, but not much. Quality is same as using 12mpx camera. I will post samples later.

Only magisk module I have is pixel3 gcam enabler for mi a2(I think I found this on xda). GCam_6.1.021_Advanced_V1.4.032219.1950.apk
Quality is not too low it is almost same with 12mp. Color correction is more accurate. It works for only photo and portrait (video,night sight tested others untested)
Edit: for samples I don't have stable interneth connection for now
Edit2: I found a way to use low light lens with night sight. After switching to low light lens just close your camera with your hand. on bottom try night sight will appear if you click that you can use it with night sight

Can anyone test if this gcam works well on x2 pro

I am about to purchase this phone, but counting on the use of GCAM because the native of these Chinese does not always do a good job, today I saw that the parrot has released an AWB support version for samsung sensors present on this phone. Can anyone test and tell me if this version really works on the phone?
https://mega.nz/#!aaRCja5S!a958H-jkCfZ7yiof8LmoRBZz-rZeTVtqjU6dQVBraaU
(It's a official release present on his telegram.)

I am a bit new. What should i test??

Only if works great on the phone, photo, night sight and portrait in rear and selfie cameras haha. In AWB mode have the option for this samsung main sensor, GW1 if i remember.

This is quite good. Does he have any recommendations for settings?

Can you post some samples against the native? Configs it's activate hdr+ and use 32 frames in advanced settings and setting the pixel awb mod to Samgun GW1

For a first test, everything is working except the slow motion. It forces closing.

Can't install it (global rom)
Edit : work after uninstall gcam 6.1...
- can't select more than 26 frames HDR+ enhanced (with more, no photo)
- can't use "sabre" (crash)
- you can select awb Samsung but I can't see better quality with it.
Finally, I prefer 6.1 gcam at this time

Can you show some samples of this two version of gcam and the native, it's good to our see the results and compare.

Here you go
1st photos of each is the gcam, 2nd is stock
Gcam has hdr enhanced
Stock is aldo hdr

I find the gcam to produce much more accurate colours to what i see in real life. And has better depth. Whereas the stock tries to smooth out everything

The problem with Gcam is that currently it works only for the main camera and the front one...

This gcam is not very good for x2 pro. The photos are very bland and all color, saturation and others options do nothing when you change it.

Hi,
Can't find any GCAM that support tele and wide lens...
Hope that the Indian Release will give visibility to this awesome device.

Gcam and stock camera sux

Hi, the stock camera is a ****. The gcam is a ****.
I have a honor view 20 which takes photos with the same camera even without gcam and takes very good pics only point and snap.
There's some settings ir you recommend some camera apps? Thanks

Check the thread for Gcam under Apps section for this phone & see the recommendations.
Also in future it'd be way beneficial to upload photos showing comparison if you want to make a post to complain + ask recommendations.

After all Gcams Apk.....this is the best for mu RM 6s

This is probably the best balanced GCam out there. Photos come out very detailed and sharp. Colours aren't overexposed. Needs very little tweak to get it work as you like. And most of all, the buffer fix is just awesome. Not only does it take better balanced photos than almost all of the GCams I've ever tried, it also fixes the ViewFinder lag. This is literally the go-to GCam for all users.
Though, the Night Sight and Photo Booth doesn't work. That's just the only two things to watch out for. Other than that, it's literally the best GCam for Realme 6 for now. 5/5

I don't have any black bar on the left side of the photo. Tested by taking pictures in the same spot using 3 different camera apps.

I can't open video mode . Is there someway to fix it?
