I thought the default camera app adds lat/lon to exif since 1.5, if not there is always snap photo...
Default doesn't, so probably go with SnapPhoto.
You can also geotag photos taken with a DSLR/digicam by installing Google My Tracks on the phone. Before you begin taking photos, you need to do two things: 1) Make sure your camera and phone clocks are synchronized (within 1 minute would be good). I suggest syncing the camera to the phone, as the phone gets highly accurate time from the GSM network. 2) Start My Tracks and begin recording your GPS position. Now just keep your phone on you as you take pictures. When you are done taking photos stop the GPS recording, choose the Save to SD option and export the track as a GPX file. On your computer, install a geotagging application like GeoSetter or Gpicsync. In the app, specify the folders containing your photos and GPX files. Then all you need to do is click the sync or apply button and the app will automatically look for GPX files with similar timestamp ranges and apply the geotag data to your pictures.

If you want to support OpenStreetMap.org and similar types of activities geotagged photos of street signs and photos in general are useful for the OpenStreetView project...
i do not understand this since the day i had the note 4
allways looks more zoomed then any other camera phone.. is like autumaticily. when i open the camera (the 16 mb) is already zoomed with x 1.0 and i can't go back to 0 zoom like never...
when i zoom more it gives me 2-8 X but never can have 0 ZOOM... why is that??!!
and another question for google photos cloud - there is no sync app that can download my upload camera to the PC autumaticly as the dropbox thing...??

Hi!
Having zoom 1x means...everything will be at a scale of 1 times 1. (1x1=1).When you zoom in it will become 1x2=2 times closer...and so on. So if you wanted 0x1 you'll be having zooming out to the point viewing your note 4 internal components or...getting into a black hole that would take you to another dimension
About the google photos, just download Google Plus, and it will install an app called photos. Once you enter that app it will ask you if you want to backup your photos,make sure to go to settings and select the quality of the uploaded photos, if it's smaller than a certain resolution, it will upload all photos with free cloud storage (will not increase usage space)
regards!

thanks for your respond
but for the zoom.... how is it possible that with other phone cam it does "zoom less"...?
and for google photos - i'm looking a way to download sync the photos from the cloud to the PC.. not the other way...

It is caused by different matrix aspect ratio (originally 16:9, not cropped 4:3 like in other models) and view angle which is a bit lower then in different phones.
If this is common knowledge, I apologize for the redundancy of this post, however I doubt it, since I searched for a way to do this for quite a bit of time, until I finally found a way.
As you probably know, if you're into photography, the P9 Lite supports Camera 2 API which allows for the capture of RAW pictures in .dng format.
This is especially useful for editing, as RAW images contain lots more information, especially in the shadows and highlights.
While there are several 3rd party camera apps that allow RAW capture, having tried most of them, none even comes close to the stock camera app. They're either clunky to use, or they're ugly as sin (I'm looking at you Open Camera, which is both).
To enable this feature on the P9 Lite is actually very simple, but it DOES require ROOT.
This is how to do it:
1. Ensure your device is rooted
2. Use a root file explorer and navigate to /system/emui/lite/prop/local.prop and open the file as text.
3. Change the value of ro.build.hw_emui_lite.enable from true to false
4. Save the file
5. Reboot the device
6. Open the stock Camera app
7. Enable Pro Photo mode
8. Go to settings and enable RAW.
Happy shooting, happy editing.
Already had that line disabled for other reasons. Didn't know it also makes shooting in RAW possible. Thanks!
I had it disabled for the transparent notification panel, bit yeah...I needed this so much!
Thanks!

Haha, to each his own.
Personally, I dislike the transparent notification panel. I would like to keep it solid black and still have RAW, but hey... I'll take what I can get, and RAW capture is more important.
Cool, https://www.xda-developers.com/guide-enables-raw-capture-in-the-stock-huawei-p9-lite-camera/
Nice, also seems to work for the (Huawei) Honor 6X. Thanks.
My joy at this discovery was short-lived, but then again, isn't that the very nature of joy?
Poetry aside, here's what's wrong.
Shooting RAW, the camera takes one compressed .jpeg and one RAW .dng. However, no matter the shooting conditions, the RAW .dng always comes out blurry and very soft.
I used a tripod, very very fast shutter speeds, in broad daylight and the .dngs ALWAYS come out unfocused.
Anyone able to chime in an maybe offer some insight?

It seems like the default gallery app doesn't render the RAW files properly. View them in another gallery app with RAW support or import them to your prefered photoeditor and they look fine

You're right.
Imported into Lightroom, the .dng is actually quite a bit sharper than the .jpeg.
Thanks muchly!
Thanks, im wating for this a long time

It can read them, but not properly. It shows them really blurry, like they're not focused.
Can you recommend me good raw viewer if you use one?

I don't use any. I open the files in either Snapseed on my phone, or Lightroom on my PC and edit.

Last time when I tried to open raw photos in snapseed it didnt work, and yeah...that was after they added the support for editing raw photos, but I tried now and it works!?

Thanks, is there anyway to disable jpeg format?, It's very annoying both Jpeg and raw Messing in gallery.

Sadly, I'm afraid not. At least not to my knowledge.
raw without pro mode
Just wanted to ask if it captures raw in all the modes like light painting and night and even in just normal photo mode. does it works only with pro mode ?
Please reply.
Thanks in advance.

No. Only in Pro Photo mode.
But you can do light painting in Pro Photo mode with longer exposures and get the best of both worlds. RAW and light painting.
Has anyone tried to import the XZ2 photos to Lightroom? I'm having lots of problems. It seems for some photos it may have lost the 16:9 aspect ratio? Hard to reproduce, since the latest system update a few days ago it doesn't seem to happen anymore. Not sure if I'm going insane or if it really happened.
Then there's another elephant in the room: Lightroom Classic CC seems unable to read the date tag in the EXIF data? Never had this issue before with any camera I've ever used. But other programs can read the EXIF data? It's all very odd. Photo orientation seems to be interpreted wrongly too.
Am I the only one having issues? Now I'm using a third party tool to rename the files according to the EXIF data.
Btw., it's very annoying that every time you move all photos to your computer the counter is being reset... I know few cameras that behave that way. For good reason.
Switch to 4:3
Then you get 19MP
16:9 has only 12MP or 17MP
It's not that easy. With 16:9 you get a wider image, with 5500 pixels instead of 5000. So in scenes where you want to capture as much of a landscape (for example) as possible you'll absolutely benefit from 16:9. Also, the MP don't really matter. I wish the sensor had a lower resolution.
I've found the solution to some of my issues... Lightroom has problems when it keeps importing files of the same name, and the XZ2 keeps resetting the counter to 1...
Hey everyone,
When I take a photo in Portrait mode, I have the option to adjust the focus after the shot in the Albums app.
Are there any other apps I can use on for mobile and Windows that will allow me to adjust the focus, or is that feature gone when a photo is uploaded (full size) to the cloud for backup?
I'm asking because after a while I want to clean up the photos/videos on my phone to free up space but would still like to go back to some of the older photos every now and then.
Thanks!
