As there seems to not be a camera thread yet, here's one to get us started. I have had my P10 Plus in the UK from its release through carphone warehouse.
I had the p8, P9, p10 and this definitely is the model to get if you are interested in its camera capability.
I took this pic last night through my kitchen window (was very windy outside) propped up against the window pane using the light trails option. Not the best example but I am impressed by its potential for use in night photography.
Great camera phone both day and night.
And now compare it in .raw format with at least the P9, and when others with a Mate 9 join let's compare against those as well. The hardware isn't that much different from Mate 9, for a much higher price. So saying that this is the model to get would be a bit wrong IMHO.
I look to be getting one of these pretty soon if TWRP and ROOT is already available... So i'll reserve this spot and later edit with my pictures.

I disagree... I was talking about the camera specifically. I had the mate 9 and I do rather prefer the p10 plus for sure. There's a distinct difference in quality especially in low light.
So on that note my comment still stands...in your eyes wrong but not in mine.
A couple of day shots from beamish museum at the weekend.
Just a random shot to see if it can handle the sky

Here's a couple of shots in auto, both black and white then colour. Both focus and exposure smack in the middle of the light.
Again all untouched straight out of camera. Light was really bright and harsh today, plus handled it pretty well. Lots of detail to be had.

Nice Cu/Cb clouds! I'd like the .raw for it, if you have one. Storms are <3
Here's a couple I took last weekend. Not difficult lighting or anything but just nice sharp images.

What a shame! Whenever and wherever, please always try to shoot in raw. Such a great feature of the cameras shouldn't go wasted!

Most people won't shoot in raw. However, I do agree raw is generally the way to go and the P10 series captures a lot of data with raw. This is a shot from my Mate 9 original taken in raw.

The P10 plus definitely has cleaner, brighter and more detailed low light shots compared to the mate 9 (not saying the mate 9 is bad at all by the way).
Here are just a few of mine, I adore the camera on this phone.

When your in auto mode simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen - you will see a little solid line to pull up.

I'm curious because I've read that a lot of people don't like the camera. Why is that? I'm not sure if I should buy that phone.

Why you make a new topic about this because its been talked about and some hate it but many love it. But why focus on words when you can judge for your self when you go to places like flickr and see how each phone takes them photo's

The point and shoot is second to none.
The pro and night modes are both second to none..
Telephoto lens is superb
Only thing is say ia better is HDR on the pixel.
Besides that the p20 Pro stands alone. Even against late 2018 phones.
Unbeatable point & shoot camera performance. Never seen a camera fair that well on phone before.
Pixel 3 camera is very good but not as refined or versatile as the Huawei system.
If you don't know how to tame it, you will not like it. But if you can tame it and know the capabilities and limitations of the sensor, you will love it!
I'm having a blast with it, because i know how it works inside out and now i can push it to it's limits.
/ Magnus
I love it
The thing I don't like is that I often get blurry images if I point and shoot
Hello,
For "HDR" effect, yu can use "night mode" in the day time. Otherwise I love the camera... competely... Have been using this phone on daily bases for 3 months and I'm astonished.
Here are some pictures - point and shoot

You got your hands on Pixel 3 already? Weird I thought they're not supposed to deliver until sometime later.
Not at all, There is a entire thread showing the amazing photos this phone can deliver, this phone camera is versatile, it has the best nightmode out there, the best zoom, and the main 40mp sensor can capture a lot of detail, Last night i manage to take a photo of a lighting (https://i.imgur.com/32TxPqG.jpg).
a flicker with P20 pro photos :

Yea, i love the P20 pro camera and night mode is freaking awesome! Only negative things i can think off is no stabilization on 4k video and the selfie cam could be a bit better but besides these 2 i think this camera is pretty much the best you can get right now for a cheap price.
for me it doesn't matter what i read or what other peoples say.
The camera of this phone is insane. Especially the night mode. Never saw something like this. Night shots looks brighter than with the human eye?
The only thing i don't like is the post processing of the camera app (oversharpening)
P20 Pro camera is neither bad, nor cheap, but both of those are highly subjective opinions. And you know what they say about opinions....
I am enjoying mine very much.

The front/selfie camera is what most people are complaining about, esp. the color saturation. It gives a plasticy color to human skin.
The main camera is superb.
The camera is really bad on this phone.
Pictures are so over processed and lake dynamic range.
In 10mpx it's inusable and in 40mpx il't noisy. Video recording is also bad.
This phone is just horrible. My olds S8+ and Xiaomi Mi9t are much better except for zooming and low light. S9+ destroys completely the p20 pro.
I really regret my purchase.

I cannot second that. The only thing i can complain about is video recording.
Main shooter is more than capable to take great pics. It's incomparably better than op 7t.
The camera quality on this phone is really good. Anyone who says it's crap is objectively wrong.
The camera quality in the p20 pro still today better than many flagship, more than one year later, I compare the camera with the recents iPhone 11 pro max, pixel 4, mate 30 pro, samsung note 10, and it's nothing to envy of them, the kirin 970 is slower in games, but is smooth and very fast still
what is the best siting of camera ? in 10 m pixel or 40m pixel ?
Depend on the situation, with good daylight 40, 10 if you don't want big pictures files, for zoom, night and difficult light conditions better 10, normally I use 10, because Huawei optimized the software and the cams to work together in this setup, working main, telephoto and monochrome camera sensor together for improvement results

Seems this forum is rather silent but has any a80 users tried a gcam?
It's the same sensor as the OP7 pro, zenfone 6 etc so hopeful someone has had some luck

Just got the phone today and I'm using this GCAM port, for the S10 https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397913303 it seems to work fine, haven't done any test, just a quick pic and it does seem better quality over the stock Samsung.
I've been using it for about 4 hours and the camera does not fully turn every time, most times it does, but I've had that happen a few times already, where it almost flips all the way to selfie mode, but stops at about 80% of the flip. Interested to know if this is common, I've seen a Youtuber with this issue as well, so just wondering if it's "normal" or not.

Had a bit more time to test it out and wow, GCam for the win, the difference is massive in low light, stock camera is very noisy, GCam, clean pic, makes this a great camera phone now.

The latest Gcam based on the Pixel 4's sensor works much better. I spent a lot of time trying and getting the best out of this sensor. Might compare it to the iP11Pro soon.

can you pm me a link to which one your using? thanks
My friend @Xtergo can you give as a link for the Pixel 4 version you mentioned before?
already tried bsg arnova version & it's much better than stock in normal or portrait conditions but there's still missing features like live mode who give us actual bokeh effect. as far my experience gcam still lack on response time to open up / switching between mode camera maybe many more must be fixed considering that there has not been ported special for this device
Urynox Google Camera 7 for Samsung Galaxy A80
Almost all modes work
Hi guys, a have running Gcam for A70 (downloaded from same forum) in my A80 without problems its very good the Android 10 version, all right.
Im still undecided weather im going to go with this phone or the realme x2 pro...
The 855+ over the 855 isnt really a big deal for me... But the camera is.
It appears that the realme x2 pros camera gives more realistic colours and contrast over the 9t pro... But its still pretty close to the line...
The MP rating mean nothing as there upscaled MP no the native sensor MP rating. Ive still yet to find the true MP rating for both cameras...
Anyway, Ive asked this in the realme forum too...
Can the camera be put into 25 or 24 fps mode? I do youtube videos and tbh 30p sampling to 25fps is adds flicker... its really not ideal at all...
I would like to be able to record my videos on 25 fps if possible... Can this phone be put in that mode? Maybe with open camera?
My old redmi note 4 cant go into 25fps with open camera... but can this?
Anyway if anyone can let me know

I cant "test it" because i dont own the phone.... Im asking before i buy!
I don't know if there's a way of forcing it but I'm running the Syberia Rom with ANX cam and Urnyx GCam, 4k30/4k60 are options but 4k/25 is not.
Filmic evaluator doesn't report 25hz as an option either just the maximum of 4k60.
Hope that helps!

1. I don't know where you got the info that Realme X2 Pro camera gives more realistic colours because it's not true and it gives oversaturated colours while Mi 9t Pro gives natural and more realistic colours.
2. You can record 24 or 25fps up to 4K on Mi 9T Pro with Filmic Pro(see screenshot below).

That's just made things more confusing....
I'm pretty sure that's what side by side comparisons said...
So you're saying the 9t camera IS better?
Though I tried to find that app on playstore and it wouldn't show up... Wither not available in the UK. Or this phone isn't comparable and the store won't show me it... (this phone being my old one)

I'm not saying that 9t pro camera is better, it's about the same or a little bit worse than on x2 pro. I'm saying that 9t pro camera gives more natural and realistic photos compared to oversaturated and oversharpened photos on x2 pro.
I don't know why you can't find Filmic pro, it's the best app of that type. Here you have link to that app so try to open it and you will know the reason why you can't find it(instead of install there should be red letters notification telling you is it your phone's fault or your region's fault):

Yeah its in the store but just not compatible with my old redmi note 4, its mediatek... sooooo old.... so hidden on my store when i view with my phone....
So this sharpening and saturation. isnt the sensor is software?

Just because filmic pro says it allows recording in 24 fps doesn't mean that the footage will be 24 fps. On my old SGS4 I have 30, 25 and 24 fps available but the footage is always 30 fps.
In order to establish what you can do, you need to make a test capture and then check it with mediainfo app.

Ive not got it yet but im leaning on realme x2 pro... Im in the process of hopefully getting a decent job. If things look good ill be ordering from amazon. Even though the price has just gone up on the white version
Also looks like eglobal are scaling back the mi9t pro and have bumped the price up a little... soooooooo realme is looking more attractive again :/

Just tested between my 8 pro and the 10 pro taking close up shots and the 8 pro deals with this extremely well, perfect image.
The 10 pro doesn't seem to have any macro functionality at all.
Any ideas?

It's ok mate I looked it up, it is indeed not present..
You would have to zoom in using the the other cameras.
Problem is the point of focus, its a hardware limitation and cannot be changed.
Thanks for the heads up about the the app, will look into that and see what else it has, cheers.
the 10 Pro is just short of the macro mode if not it would be a good upgrade from the 9 Pro.

I agree, I'm coming from the 8 pro so for me it's just enough.
Battery is a big one as well as the SOC, plus the cameras albeit without the macro.
I tested by zooming in with the main camera and it was as good if not better than close up macro.
All we need now is a few custom ROMs.
The missing macro mode doesn't bug
