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!

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?

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.
Seeing as folk will eventually ask about this, I have done a few tests and found 1.3 working fine from here LINKY for your GCam enjoyment.
This isn't my work, I'm just linking to it. There are a number of modders that have worked on it.
So, I downloaded the 1.3a and after taking the photo in HDR+ it got stucked at 70% of the "Processing HDR+" Could you help me?

GCam 7.3 by Parrot043
I tried this one, stopped using it when I discovered a crashing issue when turning on stabilization in video mode.
GCam 7.3 by Arnova8G2
This one works very well, haven't noticed any glitches that'd prevent me from using it. The live view frame rate in the photo mode can be low at times, that's my only complaint. Night sight works, photos, hdr+, video, and video stabilization. Astro more looks to be working, but haven't had any clear skies to experiment with.

For me Gcam 7.0 by Parro043 works excellent and the photo viewfinder is in normal speed. I am not sure why is better choose the 7.3 over any other 7.0 or 7.1 or 7.2.

found some gcam mods with this function, but they are crashing when you try to change the lens
I tried a few version of the gcamera on my moto g8 power. They certainly offer way more detail than the stock app.
However, how do you change lenses? There is no way to switch to wide or telephoto. Long pressing camera or gallery does nothing.
Hi guys, which camera modules are in moto g power?there is no information on the official website
Can anyone confirm that it's working with the different lenses, and if so what version are you running? Without access to the multiple lenses, the app is severely limited.
Just a couple of other Gcam mods that work nicely with the Moto G Power. Hyper Cam https://www.gcambrasil.com.br/hypercam and PixelCam Plus https://pixelcambrasil.com.br/en/ Both seem to work nice and fast on lower series Snapdragon 6xx phones. I cant say if Astrophotography works but did try night sight and that did. There is no Top Shot available. So I keep the Parrot one on my phone too.
I will test it on my new Moto G8 Power coming to me ) I hope USD 179.99 is good deal, for factory unlocked international version.
Hi All,
GCAM for S21 Ultra. For Exynos, try BSG or Zoran. BSG has recently updated.
Anybody using GCAM on S21 Ultra Exynos variant? Kindly post here which version and config file you're using.

Check OP has been updated. You might want to try yourself as others have not replied.
I just checked the BSG version. Main and front lens are mostly not better with GCam. Especially 108 mp mode wipers the floor with anything GCam does in good light. Also dynamic range is better on stock camera. In some cases GCam has better detail than the 12 mp pics from stock, but this is unreliable.
The one thing GCam ROCKS is with the ultra wide lens. MUCH more detail. A completely different outcome. This alone will let me keep GCam as a secondary camera app.
Tele lenses are unavailable. Unsurprisingly so, because not even stock pro cam can access them. Sad. Imagine the 3x cam being as improved as the ultra wide ...

There are no differences, especially with Exynos for now. Samsung on the Snapdragon model allows telephoto to be used, but only with certain Samsung package names. Ruler and Scan3d are real Samsung apps that GCam is pretending to be in order to access the two telephotos.
However, for Exynos, Samsung still doesn't allow access of the telephotos via this method, so you don't need to use the Samsung package names as all of them will work the same.

I thoroughly confirm that this version of GCAM manages to pull out visibly better quality and more detail from the Ultra wide lenses. Both in normal mode and night mode as well.
HRD+ (enabled trough the settings) Also gives pretty good result. However the GCAM app doesn't fix up the occasional fish-eye distortion that comes with Ultra wide lenses. (fixable easily is post) While the Samsung cam does it by default.

I haven't ebanbled any config at all. Straight up as it is. I only enabled HDR+ control, which makes a an extra HDR button to appear in the on screen camera controls (little down looking arrow on of screen)
Regardless of hdr. I only used the ultrawide camera a few times. I'm pretty satisfied with the original camera for all other modes.
If a good photos is not too well colored or exposed by default, I use Snapseed to adjust it to my likings. Only takes 10-15 extra seconds.
Hi guys, soon-to-be S21 Ultra (exynos) user here. Has anything changed in regards to auxiliary lenses in apps like GCam? Do the telephotos work, or still just the ultra wide? Thanks.

To my knowledge still only UW and UWW, so no telephoto lenses on GCams.... I'd be very happy if someone could correct me, though
Which GCam mod works the best for Edge20, for all the 3 lenses present?
I am currently using the one by BSG v8.1
It works fine for all lenses, except that it produces that wierd fisheye effect with the ultra wide lense.

One question guys! Does anyone notice the extreme lag when using the camera indoors? Not even with low light but "normal"... It makes almost impossible to take a picture without being blurred, since it also takes a few seconds to shoot.

Yes, I agree with that. This happens with the Stock Camera app
Hence I use Gcam, Which works perfectly in this case. There is no lag in Gcam

I'm also looking for a setting for it but no luck so far, I'm stressed that the image on the screen looks good but when you take the picture it looks a bit more blurry. As if it were being Post-Processed. I want me to take the photo as it is taken by the sensor but unfortunately even in RAW the photo is retouched.

Yes, and unfortunately the image looks just as processed. The strangest thing is that when capturing the image with HDR it should be seen with its respective dynamic range, but to my surprise the Normal/HDR+/HDR+ Enhanced photos look exactly the same. To take photos with HDR I had to resort to apps like Open Camera. So I use 3 camera apps on my phone.
The Stock App for videos, GCam for photos and Open Camera for HDR/DRO or photos with custom Bracketing
