For some reason, taking a photo with flash on in WhatsApp or Google Camera or any other camera app creates overexposed images, to the point where the whole picture is basically white. I am currently on Pixel Experience CAF but this was also happening when I was on stock March update. Does anyone know what is causing this?

I'm sure this is another known, but unknown Android bug but when using an image from my SD card the image immediately becomes blurry and pixalated. The photos were taken using a high quality camera as well.
I have disabled both Facebook, and Google contact sync so what is causing this immediate downgrade in quality?
I'm running CR_Slide.
Have you tried waiting a few seconds, sometimes a bit more? The image is blurry, in more of a preview form while the full image is being rendered which will display momentarily.
Yep.
Had no effect.
Hi all,
Sorry to have to post again I have been having great difficulty getting good pictures with the front camera, the weird thing is that when taking the picture it seems a little grainy as you would expect from a 2mp but after the photo has been taken they then change and look really fake looking like I'm made of play dough. I've tried turning all the extras off and it's still happening, help?
Bit of an update, my friend advised me to try getting snapchat as that capture the image straight away and it doesn't go through any processing and yes it's true the pictures taken using this are better.
Is there any camera app that doesnt do the processing as this is what seems to be ruining my pictures. I have tried the stock app, instagram and also pixlr.
I've just bought k20 pro and I noticed the snapchat camera is always zoomed in compared to stock or google camera, is there a way to fix that or am I missing something, because I use snapchat camera way more than stock one and the picture quality in that suffers due to zoom issue
Snapchat does not works well in an android because of lots of other android phones with different screen sizes, chipsets, cameras, etc and the its is not actually zoomed it is stretched due to full screen aspect ratio and quality is **** than stock camera all you can do is use filters or buy an iphone

It's all because external apps in android don't use hardware camera implementation, instead they are using preview from recording view. There is no way for you to fix it, but app developers can just change implementation. Hovewer they won't probably do it, as there are too much different devices running android.
It's not zoomed in. Keep in mind that you're comparing 4:3 to something like 16:9 to 18:9. It cuts off the sides, which makes it look like it's zoomed in, but it's not.
Nothing can be done. Snapchat, Instagram etc uses the screen capture of the view finder,so the quality of the pics will be trash. To get optimized and good results go for iPhone.(any variant)
So we all know that image quality of pictures taken from snapchat and/or instagram is generally very bad when compared to stock cam right? Especially for androids. But I was seriously very surprised to see that my note 9 was performing very very good in terms of sc and ig pictures.
Normally in androids, snapchat takes screenshot of the viewfinder, but my sc used to process the image, like the image viewfinder was showing was of bad quality but once i clicked on capture button it processed the image and you couldn't tell the difference if it was taken from stock cam or not. Seriously I was loving it and I was alot surprised.
Just additional info : This significantly better image processing only worked when I wasn't applying any filters,or recording video, or boomerang or anything other than normal pictures.
So now since like last two weeks, I have been noticing that the image processing is gone, in both apps, the images captured are the screenshots of viewfinder.
Now the twist is that its still processing some captures; not all. After experimenting alot I figured out what it is processing now and what is just a screenshot, so if I focus on something then take picture, it only captures the screenshot, and if I open up snapchat and just point to an object and take picture without tapping for focus or anything, it processes the image. Seriously if there's anything I can do bring it back like the way it used to be, that'd be great cos I loved that feature. It was amazingg.

There're are two images in the link, you can see them for reference.
I can't see big differences.

Sheesh that guy must be blind. I managed to fix the snapchat processing issue by installing an older version of the app (11.9.0.51), anything past 11.10 seems to break it.

I really prefer to take the photo using the stock camera app,
and then post the photo to another app.
The stock camera app has too much settings than other apps.
It's just a suggestion.
Hi everyone, I have got some camera issues in my pixel 7. I bought Pixel 7 few weeks ago and today I noticed weird effect when taking a picture of printed document. The text in the very centre of image is sharp, but in the direction to the edges it is blurred and distorted. You can clearly see a shadows behind a letters. Do you have any idea what is going on with this camera?
Pixel 7 distortion in the camera image
Because of the focus features and the camera software optimization of the photos taken by the Google cam, it is maybe not the right app to scan documents.
Check out MS Office Lens for better results https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.office.officelens
Another suggestion is Adobe Scan if you're having issues with text. It's what I typically use for this. Personally, I've never had any issues with the camera taking shots of text.
I face this same distortion issue while using adobe scan app too. I also noticed that google camera is over processing selfies mainly to an extent that the original photo is way better than the processed photo. How to overcome this? Kindly suggest ideas.
