[Q] Identify camera as back-facing camera? - TouchPad General

Hi,
would it be possible to change the camera type from front facing camera to a backfacing camera? Some apps only use backfacing cameras and display only a black image when you run them (e.g. some augmented reality games developed with unity3d).
Cheers,
Peter

[Q] Looking for an app like the Ultra-HD camera mode on the Oppo Find R5/R7

Does anyone know if there is an alternative photo app that does the same thing for normal android phones? The Ultra-HD mode can make a 50MP photo by taking a few normal 13MP pictures and combining them into an ultra high resolution one. It's not like a panoramic because you don't move the camera at all.
Thanks

Google Camera Maximum Resolution?

Is anyone else only able to go up to 8.3 mp in the settings for the rear camera?
Same here.. cannot go beyond 8.3mp..
Yep, I switched to the Google camera for the interface and photo sphere but can't live with 8mp!
This issue is present with all play store cameras..
Here is a topic discussing this

I'm capturing better photos at 8MP by the way....

RAW support

Hi,
Can someone with Xperia 1 please:
1. Install "Camera2 API probe" and report if it has a green check for "RAW capture".
2. If RAW is indeed supported, please install "Open Camera" (or another third party app supporting RAW output), take some pictures in DNG format and provide the original DNG files.
3. Also take the same photos with the stock Sony cam and provide the original JPG files for comparison with the DNG.
I think this may help quite a few people since we have yet to see any evidence of RAW support and samples from Xperia 1.
Thank you in advance.
Here you go buddy :

Thanks a lot for your quick reply.
Of course if you have a chance to post some unprocessed DNG's vs stock cam that would be great.
I'd like to test if we can extract better quality than stock from the RAW in post processing.
Raw Capture App : Camera FV-5
Hi there, I too realized that the stock camera under not so ideal conditions does not really produce the best image. Hope sony does fix it with an update, they have after years made a good phone to compete with other really hope they don't screw it up.
Coming back to topic :
I am currently using Camera FV-5 paid application and the RAW image is amazing in terms of getting a good base to play around on lightroom. I am even getting extremely impressive images by editing it on phone with Lightroom (paid full) android app.
I will try and post a google drive link in sometime, but for a quick feedback the RAW capture on Xperia 1 is good. I am sure even other 3rd party RAW apps should work well., given it has full Camera 2 API support. (Note it does not support level 3 API though)
Thank you cletusindia for your valuable info,
Can you tell me if the RAW support also applies to the telephoto and ultrawide lenses ?
Also can you access these lenses with FV-5 ? (I have FV-5 but only 1 lens on the XZ2 so I dont' know how it deals with multi-lens.)

No, just the main camera. I also use Open Camera, even this app only uses main lens with digital zoom.
Also from camera2 probe (APP) i noticed the Wide angle lens does not support RAW. its only the main and telephoto lens.

Isn't it possible to switch to the wide angle and telephoto on 3rd party apps like open camera?
It doesn't make sense sony locking it even if the JPEG are great.
LG phones have RAW on all lenses for years altought JPEG processing in the later models is not very good.

Manual Camera (for video) app on ASOP

Hi there!
I recently switched to an AOSP Rom (bootleggers) and I've been wondering if anyone has experience with any camera apps that support manual mode for ASOP. I've tried filmic but that is not compatible with the wide angle cam and while I find gcam great for photos for video I like more manual controls. So what are some of the apps that do a good job with the v30's cam?
