[TIP] Use this setting for Noise-free images!

I've come across a lot of people complaining about the camera not giving out noise-free images like it's supposed to. The trick is to use manual mode. I agree, if you use Superior Auto mode, it's a miss most of the times, and when it does work, it gives a purple-ish tint at the corners.
However, If you use manual mode and select the SCENE to NIGHT, the images come out amazing and noise-free!
[DO NOT JUDGE THE IMAGE BY WHAT THE VIEWFINDER SHOWS YOU. A lot of things happen when you press the shutter button. The viewfinder simply goes red for making it easy to focus. The final image in the gallery is a hundred times better]
The Scene modes are one of the most commonly ignored settings.
I hope this helps!

Wow you're right it works! I guess I'll use this for anything less than perfect lighting lol

Where do you see Scene modes?
Edit: Found it. I was on 20 MP - Had to go down to 8 MB 16:9

I only found out yesterday that when in manual mode if you switch to 8mp you get a lot more options to play around with, I also found that night scenes give great images.

Exposure Value, it's that slider next to the white balance profiles.

Camera not focusing in Pro Mode

When I go into "Pro" mode in the camera nothing wants to focus. In the other modes it is just fine.
Am I missing something?

You have to manually focus. Click on "Manual" (on the right side) with an icon of a flower and mountain.

Thanks, it works.

Video exposure and focus lock?

Is this possible via the stock camera app at all or I need to look into Filmick (or other 3rd party apps) for such features? Auto focus and auto exposure adjusting constantly when shooting changing scenery/lighting can be a real PITA. Cheers

You can use the pro mode to focus manually and get a fix exposure.

Aaargh... I had thought of that so I had looked in Pro mode but didn't see any relevant video settings (or so I thought). Now when someone tells you it's there it somehow extends your awareness and voila, there's a camera icon on the top right corner that, wow, switches to Pro mode for video
Thanks man!

Is this camera icon shows up when you are in the pro mode? Or where? I can't see it.

haha, glad I was not the only one to whom it wasn't so evident!
Enter Pro mode, to the right you see the normal "Photo shoot" button, above it there is a camera icon, hit it and the button changes to "Rec" button and you are in Pro Video mode.

Haha, I found it, thanks man

But how do I change the focus while shooting video? I can use a slider to focus but not during shooting.

That one I know but I thought you can use the focus slider to have nice effects.

Hi! You can do that. open camera>Settings>Enable the object tracking option.

Question OIS not working

A request to those who have updated to 12.1, check the optical stabilization. In the camera application, in photo mode, on the main module, with micro movements, the picture should be static. Or through instagram, telegrams, etc. Stabilization should also work there.
(I just can’t understand either a mechanical failure, or OIS disappeared after the update)

Same here. OIS only works on video mode, not in photo mode.

The preview is shakey but the picture seems focused nicely. So i dont see any issue here.

It is more difficult to take a night photo without a tripod. Or a long exposure photo.

^ this summarize OPPO hahaha
the preview while your taking the photo is sh*t like it's not focusing(it keep saying go further or go near the target) , not colorful enough and somewhat pixelated but after taking it and OPPO applied AI correction and HDR it would turn out really beautiful
usually i just ignore warning like go near or further the target since it would still take the photo anyway

I dont get any warnings like you do. In addition preview is shakey when you shake your phone, but when you click shutter button the picture is cristal clear and sharp in my case

If you dial *#899# then go to manual test - camera, you can see how the stabilization should work in the photo.
It's not a bug, it's a feature
Hope it comes back in the next update.
