Hello,
How to set up the camera resolution.
All my photos are going 12MP. I want to have the option to make shoots with lower resolution. I belive it should be possible.
I cannot see the option in the camera settings. My phone is stock with the latest update w/o root.
Thank you!

It is not like you are setting up the resolution. For example : 640x480 pixels .
Of course the resolution is different if you change the frame. But still I cannot set up the resolution.

If you change the frame to 4:3 you will shoot pic with 12mpx, if you change 16:9 you will shoot pic with 9 mpix, and if you change to 18:9 you will shoot with 8mpix, this answer your question.
Or, just use moded gcam, you have root, you can manualy set everything.

Yes, you explained the changing of the frame. But I have no control over the resolution.
I do not know why is so difficult for understanding.
As far as i know the device is equipped with 20mp camera. We should be able to shoot 20mp,16mp,14.....photos.
But probably the software is not adopted to do that...
Have a nice day!

Main camera senzor on A2 is 12mpix, 20 mpix senzor is only for low light. I understand what you are saying, you cant select manualy wanted resolution or how much pixels you want, with frame changing you wil lower the mpix, but not the resolution.
My sugestion is to try gcam, its far better in every aspect, stock camera app is not that good and it have poor settings.

What is Google thinking releasing a camera app with only 4:3 instead of widescreen?
No touch to focus... why!? This is like a standard an most phones now. The camera supports it, why not use it?
Because photos look wrong in 16:9?
I hated it when I had the Desire ROM on the phone, and all they end up doing is cropping of the a bit from the top/bottom which you could do yourself in any good photo editing software.
What about touch to focus?
And just because you like 4:3 doesn't mean everyone does or should.

It would've just been a cropped 4:3 image anyways, I don't really see the point. It has to be either a cropped 4:3 image or a cropped 16:9 image, you make the choice...
Here you have a 4:3 image from the sensor, you can crop it any way you like.
Both as options would have been tits.

Here's an interesting concept.
Can we adjust a setting to get 8mp widescreen? Either in the build.prop where we can adjust the flash or in Ticamproperties I think in the etc folder.
If possible would be amazing! Haven't been able to figure this one out though.

When you make a 8MP picture widescreen it becomes 6MP...
A 8MP widescreen picture would require it to be wider than 3264 pixels which I think is not possible

The only problem with your idea is the fact that 8MP resolution (something around 3264x2448) has a different aspect ratio than the Droid 3's screen (16:9) You won't be able to get a widescreen 8MP image unless you manage to stretch the photo out, not sure if that would ruin the image.

It would....
8 megapixel widescreen, by definition, does not/will not exist.
Nothing will prevent to build a 16/9 sensor with 8 Mpixel, simply most of the sensors are still 4/3 or 3/2, and the droid's one is not an exception.

You could do something similar to 8MP, although it's not going to be the 8MP pixel resolution.
Any image with 8 millions of pixel is an 8Mpixel image, even a stripe made of 1x8,000,000 pixels.
It's different when you name a format like VGA, qVGA, qHD and so on.
Those definitions are imping not only the number of pixels but also the aspect ratio.
8MP widescreen picture would need to be around 3760*2115. The sensor can't take a 3760 pixel wide image in 1 shot, so....(or that tall for that matter)
For the record Omnivision has already an high megapixel sensor which is natively 16/9.
It's a 4320x2430 (10Mpixel) sensor

Maybe we will see it on droid 5 or whatever...
Got it. Im not exactly a camera wiz. Thanks for taking time to explain things. I read about many other camera tweaks and came up with one myself to increase the camcorder and camera flash. So of course that got my mind thinking. If nothing else its an interesting discussion. Thanks again everyone.
It seems to me that the Wide Selfie Mode is a Scam. I realized this already a few Updates ago but was able to still downgrade, now with CSF9 i am stuck
In normal Selfie Mode i can only take Pictures with 5 MP, also other Camera Apps only recognize 5 MP. Only in the Samsung Camera and in Wide Selfie Mode i can take Pictures with 8 MP.
Could someone confirm this to me?
I had a short chat with Samsung Support and they told me it should not be that way and it would be fixed in the next Update but no idea how much i can trust in that
No one is on the same build that could tell me if its the same for them?
yes, same here

Not quite sure what you mean, you're issue is that your selfies are 5MP using the stock camera app?

Yes... if u open up the selfie camera and leave it in normal mode and look into the settings u can only apply up to 5.2 MP, only in Wide Selfie Mode u will see 8 MP as an Option, also in other Camera Apps u can only choose up to 5.2 MP
same here
ME TOO!!
Yes true, first I thought its an issue with mine only!! the thing is it shows in SAM info+ app as 5 MP and on any other 3rd party app its only 5 MP!! mine is exynos N960f
Same for me, only 5.2 MP for normal selfie... exynos note 9, June patch.
same here with last update
Just change the selfie mode. It starts with the wide selfie and not the "normal" selfie.

Now I've made some tests.. You'll see 2.8 mpx only in panorama mode... You have to select photo and click on the left button over shutter button!

CSM Fol said:
Thanks! I now have 8MP in my camera!

You always had 8mpx on your camera.. ? ?
The sensor is 8mp arranged in a 4:3 aspect ratio. You cannot get 8mp for an aspect ratio wider than that. An 18.5:9 wide image from that sensor is done by chopping 2800 pixels of the top and bottom (5.2mp left).
Now, if you zoom your selfie cam in and go back into settings to select your aspect ratio, you will see that 5.2mp is all you get for the 4:3 aspect ratio (that's the most mp you now get).
I suspect people are seeing this happen when they have their cam zoom on. Turn off zoom and look again.
Hello, I wish have 16:9 mode on 108MP camera, and Horizontal level also important, if that possible please? S21U.
Thank you a lot!

Yes I do, but not good for sure which part can keep, or should move farther or not, better can have line to hint 16:9.

in fact the 108 mpx mode is made for that, try a screenshoot with the little window on the top left side it will create a 33mpx pictures

Well, 108MP is 12000*9000, so I need 12000*6750, lol
Also I know how to cut by software later, but take the 16:9 view is a problem.
Hey, guys. Take a look on my pictures made with Gcam
Do you believe stock is able to make the same?
Still little bit overharped. Upscale also is not necessarily.
With which GCam port these photos are taken?

I don't think they are oversharpened because sharpness was set by default. They are taken with AGC 8.4.300. And upscaling indeed improves clarity and detail a little bit.

Upscale does not improve picture quality. It just let's you zoom further.
Only thing you get is too big images and file size.

No configs, just use presets Ka night and Ka day. But don't use Vivo config, it's blurred. And don't forget to choose Sabre merge and enable upscaling

This is only your opinion. Others maybe have different opinions.
Look at this beautiful portrait
By the way, it was made under room lighting (I use my own config for portraits). The stock camera in such conditions nervously smokes aside I am personally very pleased with gcam. And I don't understand why Vivo programmers get paid.

Thanks a lot! Am using 9.5fix and holy moly there so many options. I'm a little overwhelmed but I guess it's gonna take me sometime to get used to. Thanks for posting tho, I believe gcam has the capability of pushing the sensors to their limits to take the best pics. Do you have any recommendations configs tho? You did mention you only use the presets but am getting slightly blurred images, gonna have to experiment a bit...

If you want a sharper pics you can play with sharpness and sabre. And don't forget to enable upscaling to 1.6x-2x. It increases the file size but detail a bit too.
Hey, guys. To finalize this topic, I would like to share with you my last pics. It's for those who like a bit sharper
Conclusion - with a proper gcam and config our camera is still damn good!
