Mi a2 camera quality - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Guys i am from india and bought this few days back
Its snappy nice body built but camera quality is bad
Is there another app thay i can use instead of stock camera or are there particular settings in camera app like auto exposure or contrast or sharpness thati should change plz do tell
No root just wanna improve picture quality of camera here
Is it possible?

It's only you, this device's camera is the best at this price tag... Try to flash latest fastboot image again, maybe it solves your problem

"Camera quality is bad" ??
I'd suggest looking at the many various reviews of this device. Almost all of them rave about the camera and have sample pictures (which are outstanding).
What makes you think the quality is bad?

The camera of this phone is the one thing that is far better than the price. Must be something wrong with your unit. The quality is good. Very good.

I'm not satisfied with stock camera also, try this two camera apps.

You must realise that the SGN's camera isn't an SLR one, it can not give you an SLR quality photo. This is a known fact with all camera phones.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
does custom rom affect the image camera result?because when i compare stock rom->camera->autofocus result better than root->custom rom->camera->autofocus. it is true?or just my imagination

Camera FV-5 has always been my go-to in photography. Great UI, very configurable, and takes good pictures.
I've never tried any of those apps you mentioned other than ZR's camera (since it's stock), but know this: the smaller sized application it is, the less bloat, promo nonsense, and ad-junks you see on screen. Many Camera apps you see (including the ones you listed) on the Play Store are filled with junk, so go for something light (Open Camera is less than 1 MB!).
The stock app is OK, but it too is filled with bloat. The quality of the picture could be a lot better.
Camera FV-5 is a paid app, so unless you plan on shedding money for a good camera app, go for Open Camera (free version of FV-5 is useless). Open Camera's UI is ugly, but it takes good photos.

I'm in love with the Pexo Cam
I've tried Ciberian in the past but it almost made no difference.
Now-adays I installed PexoCam v8.5 and it's perfect!
Totally recommended by me

Only you can decide whether you prefer one or the other, so try them all out. You shouldn't expect someone else to decide for you; there are just too many variables in regards of how someone typically uses their camera...

Best camera APP for OP3T with stock rom?

Hello guys,
I'm on the latest stable Oxygen OS on my OP3T.
I wonder what is the best camera app or camera mod to install in order to have better quality pictures ?
I donwload the 2.8.11 camera app. Is there a better app ? Or maybe better drivers ?
What are your thought about ?
Thanks

I'm my opinion the best thing you can do is go and use ported Google Camera (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/modded-google-camera-hdr-60fps-video-t3658552). Right now I'm using Arnova8G2-V8.2 version with no issues.
When I first got my 3T I was pretty disappointed about the camera quality (specially in low light situations) but after installing the GC everything changed, the HDR+ is something amazing. However, keep in mind that for shooting videos and manual control on photos the Oneplus camera app is the way to go.
I recommend you go and install the Google Camera from the link above and do some testing and compare the results with the OP camera you will see what's best for your use.
Good luck!

Question Getting more quality out of the phone cameras

Is there any way i could improove the quality of the cameras? The sensors are pretty good and there is potential , but the processing of the normal camera app is just ****. Is there any way possible an gcam app haves color + awb corection for every single sensor in the phone and gets better photos ?

They offer same , or worse quality. If there are no color corrections done specifically for this phone , it won t look good.

Then you've didn't search enough or you made something wrong.
The quality of the game pictures with our rn10pro are nearly at the quality of iphone 12 pro max....
Or you expect more than possible with phones...

Take the photos in raw format. Then there is no post-processing on the part of the camera app. You can then do the post-processing yourself on the pc according to your own wishes. E.g. with "Adobe Lightroom" or with the free alternatives "Darktable" or "Raw Therapee".

Latest 8.1.101, without configurations cuz there's not any config file for note 11, +wide camera isn't working properly
in android 12.1 GSI PE Plus i use OnePlus Camera Ported by AyraHikary
Yesterday I have found out (on my Redmi Note 11 with Superior-OS) that the pixelation / blur in photos (I thought it's caused by ****ty Camera app / driver) might be resolved by using better Gallery app:

How does another gallary app fix the photo?

It has fixed the quality / speed of the picture rendering -- during scolling & zooming of a picture (subway map) I have seen pixelated / blurred areas (for > 1sec) and I thought it's a camera problem. But when I used another gallery app, it was pixelated only for maybe 0.5sec and then it got perfectly sharp.
I mean it's not Windows so it doesn't show you the icon (when the app is busy and the user should wait) -- so I was not sure whether the app is busy rendering or not.
I noticed camer on the redmi is not as good as the camera on my MiA2. I am hoping gcam will fix that but I will have to use the stock camera app sometimes for pro mode.

gcam does give slightly better results , but i think the 50mp sensor is a dog tbh

I have noticed the "auto" picture with gcam is way better than the auto setting on the stock app. Using the pro mode on the stock app though I can get a more realistic picture by adjusting white balance etc manually but the image still isn't as crisp as gcam. Night mode on gcam is amazing too.
Can't seem to get the 50mp to work on gcam so can't compare that. I use the 50mp feature to take pictures of signs or large blocks of text, I can definitely get better clarity when zooming in but I wouldn't call it a great looking picture. Luckily that isn't why I bought the phone.
The camera doesn't knock out true 50mp photos , they pixels are arranged in groups of 4 so 4 small ones make up one bigger one hence the 12.5mp photos . 50mp photos are just enlarged 12.5 ones really . And You may notice a lot of versions of gcam are knocking out 8mp photos too , try the version I posted in the gcam thread with the XML ( it's got an agc extension for some reason ) . It produces 12.5s and it's the sharpest gcam I've seen yet , although white balance is a bit off it can easily be corrected in Snapseed
And tbh I'm starting to think this phone is a dog , phone call volume seems pretty low compared to my old x3 NFC . That with the Bluetooth audio dropouts , crappy camera .. only good thing about it is the screen lol
I am happy for now, aside from the camera it's still an upgrade from my MiA2 and it cost me less than a decent dinner in a restaurant.
