Did you try turning on "improve in low light"?

Same **** with +hdr turn off hdr and works fine

Try another variant of gcam
Some of them have this issue and some don't
Try what works best for you

I tried more than 5 main versions of gcam, (arnova v6, v1.6, cstark,...) But all of them havee same problem.
In versions which have option to turn on improve low light I checked this, but problem was still here.

[Q] Note 4 camera imposing tilt shift?

Is it just me or does it seem like the Note 4 camera app is imposing a sort of tilt shift effect on every photo?

This appears to be happening on every single photo I take... even after the latest update. I'm using stock settings on the stock camera app in auto mode.

That's just the depth of field effect you get from having a wide aperture. A wide aperture means more light hitting the sensor, but a narrower depth of field (only objects near the focal point will be in focus). It usually means the part you're focusing on will be sharper and brighter though. I prefer this look as it's closer to what you get with an actual camera. Haven't played much with the camera or settings, but if you can manually adjust the aperture (bigger f number means smaller aperture) you'll get more in focus but potentially less sharp in low light due to longer exposures. Everything in photography is a trade off between exposure time and depth of field.

Try These Camera Tricks

The camera on the Honor 8 Pro is full of really great features. Here's the most useful ones that I use.
Steady On Flash
Use Steady On Flash to keep the flash on while you arrange your shot. The flash will stay lit until you take your photo. This will help you preview how your image will look before you take the picture.

Wide Aperture Mode
Wide aperture mode is my favorite on the Honor 8 Pro. Take images of objects within 2 meters of your phone. Then drop out the background afterwards to get this effect.
Adjust FPS in Slo-mo Mode
Slo-mo mode is set to 120fps by default. If you swipe from the left side of your screen, you can bump up the frame rate to 240fps.
Use your Voice to Snap a Photo
Go hands free while your phone is setup on the tripod. Don't worry about setting a timer, just say "cheese" or make a loud noise to trigger the capture.
If you have any good camera tricks to share, post them in the comments.
Good one bro

Most out of MI A2 stock camera app

Just wanted to share way I found to get most out of MI A2 camera without rooting and installing Gcam.
First of all use HDR with contrast at lowest, other 2 settings should be best kept at normal. This ensures you get every detail retained in the photo, for some reason Xiaomi did awful job with adding contrast to photos and crushes all blacks.
Then I played with snapseed way too much to create filter that I can apply to all photos as a default, filter that brings back contrast without sacrificing detail. Lowest contrast setting also reveals some indigo noise Xiaomi tryed to hide by crushing blacks and I found good compromise with that too.
Just go to qr looks in snapseed and scan image below, then you can find filter in styles menu and apply it.
So here it is, so happy with it.

Lens Flare

Does anyone here suffer from heavy lens flare on Redmi Note 7?
I know sometimes lens flare happen when you take picture directly into light source. But I think this amount is too much and it's also has a weird shape.
So it is normal for Redmi Note 7 to has this kind of lens flare?

Rn7 don't have great optics, so it is expected. Camera sensor is ok, but whit out good optics pictures still will be average.

Nonsense. Nothing to do with that. This sometimes happens even with top of the line DSLR cameras. You're shooting into the sun!!!
Light can reflect off of the sensor (CMOS) and bounce back to the lens and back again to the sensor. Some cameras have up to 6 an more lenses!!!
This is not a defect of your phone. It’s just physics playing tricks on you. The lenses on this kind of cameras are so much compressed, reflections are impossible to avoid.
Even iPhone have the famous green dot... https://www.reddit.com/r/ios/comments/9qznxm/iphone_xsxs_maxxr_glowing_green_dot_in_images/

Camera Problem - "Ghost" Reflection

Hi, I've been using a Redmi Note 7 for three weeks now and I'm very happy with the device.
Yesterday I took some photos and found a weird reflection in the ones that have a strong light source. The lenses are clean and I've tried with the stock camera and the GCam, with case and without case, but the "ghost" reflections are still there. The effect occurs in both front and rear cameras.
When researching, I've found that it could be lens flare or internal reflection. However, I'd like to know if other Note 7 users have experienced the same thing or if it could be a problem with my phone's hardware.
Thanks!

How strange, I have no problems with that and I doubt it is a global camera problem, it must be failing something with your lens maybe

Then it may be an internal problem, what a shame. It seems that I will need to replace the phone. Thanks for your response!
