On 4K probably no EOS but on FHD I think it has!! I'm so happy with the last update, I'm even surprised it was not mention in the Global Beta 9.3.1 Changelog ahahahah I just happened to check by accident the video modes and bam, there were the 60fps options!!
Now, I want front camera to also have 60fps and it's probably possible to implement 4K as well!

I can also conform that night sight is working on my Poco F1 which is currently on miui 10 and android oreo but it lags a lot I mean camera takes too much of time to capture a normal shot and video is not working and screen become dark when you are in the night sight but still you can capture image.
And I've a youtube channel and made a detailed video on this night mode only
And Uploaded the new video where I compared the Night mode vs Normal Gcam shots taken with Pocophone F1 only

No, it does not work, it is just hdr+ enanched on 8.1 oreo. Check bsg thread about camera.
You will discover that not every pie rom works out of the box, but just the latest miui roms since xiaomi allowed hal3.
It just seems you want to promote your yt channel.

Check latest pages of the GCAM thread. There are plenty working, but it takes like 1 min to take the picture with astrophotography mode.
Slow motion is not working with MGC_7.2.014_MiIXSE.RPII.MiVIII_V.apk . It exits immediately.

Yeah, after I posted I've read more about it and that's true. So I guess sanity's version is working fine. Gonna see if I cantest tonight. I know that it is working because I was trying to take a photo at the beach at night and after the timer I checked my phone and it was still processing :lol:
Check the attachment to see what happened to that photo that I've moved while it was still processing.

I will share my favorites as well:
I prefer MGC_7.3.020_Parrot043_V7 and everything works flawlessly.
I have been using the Parrot builds for several months and its consistently great. The Poco doesn't have OIS, the Mi8 has a smaller 1.8 aperture, ( vs 2.0) The Mi8 has a dual LED flash, and a wider range of abilities with video recording. So with this mind, the Parrot builds officially support the Mi8, while Poco builds are obviously designed specifically for the Poco and they often omit functions that the mi8 can use.
I also like the On Fire builds ( made for Poco but keeps all options available for other phones.) and I also like GCam_7.0.009_MiIXSE.RPII.MiVIII_V1
I recommend using the Parrot's 7.0.009 final goodbye version with my settings.

Thanks for sharing, do you use any particular setting for best results, I'm testing the version you shared and I was just wondering how to set up best for our MI8.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Slds,
any config files required or recommended?
Hi @QxiG, thread is being closed as an existing GCam thread already exists. Having multiple threads for the one mod is not productive. Kindly continue the discussion in the following thread:

[GOAL REACHED]GCam for Poco F2 Pro - Crowdfunding for @Urnyx05

Quoted from the Google Camera Mod (Gcam) thread in case if the community missed it. Every little donations counts <3
MaXAiRO said:
As you all probably know, @Urnyx05 is a key GCam dev for years and if it's gonna help the F2 Pro / K30 Pro community a lot if he gets the device.
I'm quoting him below.
Poco F2 Pro for Urnyx05
Crowdfunding to help GCam mod further development
Hi, lots of users knows me as a GCam modder. Few days ago, they proposed me to support GCam for Poco F2 Pro, so I'm organizing a crowdfunding. The amount of money will be 380 euros, that is the actual price of Poco F2 Pro on Amazon. If you want to contribute, this is the link to the crowdfunding:
https://paypal.me/pools/c/8twmcmVVpc
EDIT: For those who think it's a scam, I just added 2 screenshots from the Telegram group in which Urnyx posted the crowdfunding link. In the second one, you can see him saying that it's not his actual name but a friend of his. You can actually join the group and see all these posts for yourself.
Also, I even tagged him in the first sentence of this post which means that he's already been notified about it. If it was a scam, he would ask from the XDA team to delete my post.
EDIT 2: Uploaded the screenshots as images because there seems to be an issue with the attachment function of xda.

What does "GCam for Poco F2 Pro" actually means and how it will be different from the other GCam iterations that are available and are already working fine for this phone?

Right now every single modded GCam has at least a few issues on the Poco F2 Pro. On some the general picture quality is bad, on some the general video quality is bad, on some the front camera pictures have a lot of noise, on some video stabilization doesn't work, on some recording videos doesn't work, on some the lib patcher doesn't work on some lenses, and so on.

It means what you read: it will be developed for this devices for max compatibility
End goal lowered to 360 euros, cause @Urnyx05 found a cheaper one. Only 39.98 missing
I'm using the same 2 gcams from a back up of my OnePlus 7pro and both work with out issue including 4k60 with stabilization. I don't see the point of this personally.
Aaaaand done! Happy to tip it over the edge.
I want to thank to all who donated. You're awesome
Nice!
The goal was 360, we reach It and now Is 400, I don't get It, Is It only to let people still contribute to the cause? Anyway many thanks to urnyx for this project.
EDIT: now Is 360 again

Yes the friend who owns the PayPal account made a mistake at editing the MoneyBox. 360 is the total amount, so I'll buy it soon

If you are in the Donator Group just look at the sticky posts. Else speak to Artem.
The GCam ones do indeed look significantly better. Thanks for sharing.
I installed the gcam mgc_8_1_101 of day 19. has slowdowns or thinking lag. both in stamina mode and a little less in normal mode. I have a sony experia 5 ii it seems anomalous to me this behavior, that of sony works smoothly. I would like to have feedback from you too? I don't think I'm the only one.
Night photos uploaded
Thank you. the difference is visible. Gcam rules
Where can I donate a small money to be part of this project?

Question Recording 4K 60fps in 16:9?

According to TechNick's review video, Xperia 1 III has no option to record 60fps in full 4K resolution of 3840×2160 (16:9), but only cropped 3840×1644 (21:9), even in Cinema Pro. Is this true? If so, would there be any workaround to record 3840×2160 @ 60fps? I pray someone makes a mod to unlock this functionality.
Source:
mcpro24fps this one might help, i saw ssomeone mentioned about it on youtu.be
I am waiting om my shipment, so can not verify that is a solution. Sorry
There's a free and open-source solution if the camera hardware supports 4k60 - OpenCamera. Works great with recent Sony phones because there isn't too much proprietary stuff in camera hardware.

the problem is, on my device it didn't have access to other sensors than main 24mm and the front-facing one.
I use filmic pro and mcpro24fps
