I want to root my note 3 knox can goto hell! the only thing stopping me is that i take a ton of photos. I was wondering for those that have rooted there note 3's is the cm camera okay or is there a 3rd party app that will beat out the stock camera?
Rooting doesn't have anything to do with the camera. You will still have a same stock camera if you need it.

Not Rooted, but I am a photographer, so i'll comment on the 3rd party apps
Camera FV-5
ProCapture
CameraZoom FX
These are the more 'professional' camera apps. Personally I use FV5 and Procapture a lot, Zoom is my backup.
Just keep in mind they don't have the Stabilisation option that Stock has for night shots. But you get a lot more options in return, amongst which are shutter speed and ISO.
you can try Lenovo camera app in Themes and Apps secrion, or use DSLR camera apps.

So, we should use Stabilisation for NightShots mostly, right ?
Galaxy S3 had also few other nice modes, like Sunset. It took beautiful sunset photos, much better then Note3. Or maybe I should still experiment with the camera.
BTW, I do use 3rd party camera apps (same as yours), plus SnapIt.

Stabilisation was meant purely for low-light shots. Doesn't mean we can't use it creatively, but that was what Samsung intended it for. It even says so when you activate it.

Iam not a photographer, a regular user, used to use before lgCamera Pro 6.25 on Note 1, because it gives more options and Time/date stamp
what do u recommend 4 me?
all i need Automatic zooming without taping the screen, automatic flash, time/date stamp, automatic everything else (light)

I'm afraid those are all the options I avoid like the plague.. So I wouldn't know Perhaps someone else can be more helpful..
I am using CM 13 build 6-26
currently camera fv-5 doesn't read the phone as capable of taking raw pics.. and reduces low light picture quality.
using OOS 3's camera i can do both of those... i just prefer the ui and option in camera fv-5.
what would trigger the app to register the phone to be able to do both of those?
build.prop tweaks or?
also.. the phone reports itself as a one.. not a two. ..
thoughts? info?
thanks
Hello,
Actually I noticed the same issue, camera FV5 recognize manual settings and can use camera 2 capabilities only on OxygenOS which is pretty disappointing.
I'm also forced to use the OxygenOS camera port which lack lot of settings and save jpegs with lot of compression...
Maybe CM lack some stuff.
Hi, seen a while back that S5 doesnt support RAW images, just wondering if it does now or any roms allow?
And/or if not... noticed some roms on here state the camera has no compression in there roms... Does that mean the picture quality would be better going from standard?
I use camera mostly so this is why... I just want the best camera possible for the phone...
Also macro is rubbish on my standard S5 (Android 6) ... any way to make the quality better, and/or get RAW ... and do these roms with no camera compression offer better quality photos?
Thanks
As far as I know the RAW format is only supported by the new camera API (v.2) which isn't integrated in our SGS5 software. Being that the camera firmware is not open-source, I don't think there is any chance of getting that RAW format for our phone. The only thing you can try is removing some of the compression and other little tweaks which are described in the thread below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...mera-mod-s5-g900f-5-0-improved-image-t3080897
Other than that you can't do much more but anyway the SGS5 has an at least decent camera
Wish you a best day!
The camera noisefilter is just aweful, zooming in on a photo loses all details even with low iso shots.
Using an other camera app does not help.
I found some camera settings in /etc/camera, /product/etc/camera and a few other places.
Does anybody have an idea how which one is used and if the multidenoise.xml and multiframe.xml are the correct files? Maybe there is already a mod around, I would even drop the denoise as a whole if its up to me.
Such a good phone, but the camera is driving me insane with such a stupid setting.
Also, it would be nice if someone could give us flashable ported cams from lets say Mate 9 pro or Mate 10.
Its already included in Elemental Kangvip rom, but it would be nice if we can flash just cam mode without entire rom....
There! Something just happened! Did you take a picture of it? Rate this thread to express how fast the Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite can go from "zero to picture". A higher rating indicates that launching the camera app and taking a photo is extremely fast such that you never miss an important moment, like when your cat attacks the couch again.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Sometimes it is superfast, sometimes superslow and sometimes camera opens into all white blank screen and nothing happens
camera is soooo bad, I barely used it,yuck
The camera is pretty fast. Super fast, actually. The app opens immediately, and taking the first picture takes no time at all. And it's pretty well focused. If you want to manually focus a specific point, it takes a lettle more time. But still, pretty fast.
However, the camera sucks. At least the app. I've tried other camera app and thew work a little better, but still... I expected a better camera. I don't know why it has 2 rear cameras. Do they actually do something? Improve light, focusing time, whatever? I cannot see any diference between pictures taken with the secondary camera fisically covered.
Also, did anyone manage to get any good macro picture? You have to shoot really far away from the object in order for the camera to focus it.

Which camera app gave you the best results?

For macro pictures, none. It sucks.
For default settings (auto) and fast photos, the stock app.
For extra functionality, I like the Camera MX app.
And I find interesting the lighting treatment of the camera zoom fx app (under the name of hdr, it combines 3 pictures for normal, max and min exposure). It also gives you tons of customization.
I'll give a try to open camera. Haven't tested it, yet.
I'll say neither of them is the "best" . They all use the same camera hardware. It's personal preference on the image treatment or personalization of the camera settings.
I'll set up magiks asap and I'll give a try with camera2api enabled (camera zoom fx let's you shoot on real manual mode).
I can post a picture of each to compare if you want to.

Yes please, that would be helpful. Thank you.

waiting for the results
I'll take the pictures today and I'll try to post them today, too. If not, tomorrow max.
I'll shoot in default settings and HDR. Outdoors, indoors and low-light (all default settings).
Of you want to see something else, let me know.
I've just installed magisk and enabled camera2API to try gcam and Mi A1 and Mi A2 apps. But the pictures I've taken are with regular apps before doing so. Here the go.
https://postimg.cc/gallery/2xord8elu/
1st column --> Camera MX
2nd column --> Camera Zoom FX
3rd column --> Open Camera
4th column --> Stock camera app
As I said. Not major differences. Except in low light situations where ISO must be well adjusted by the app. I'd choose an app for the user experience more than for picture quality, since they all are pretty similar.
did you find any improvement with gcam?
(that can't use the second camera on the back - correct?)
It's a very generic camera, and with the 2.2 aperture, expecting good results on low lights..well, a stretch. But it does okay for the price. Front camera is rather good and it's probably the only phone in this price range to provide EIS in video which works really well.
Hello, I'm creating an account in order to give my real-life review of this phone. The previous phones I had were HTC One M8, LG G6.
Camera launching speed from the lockscreen and from the drawer is very good, to me. Especially since the Android Pie update.
