Fully working port of night sight will only be available when we get pie update, for now you can use any older port. You will be having issues with night sight port so I won't recommend it.

I'd like to find some good camera app with the focus peaking, but until now I had no success.
MIUI have it, but I'd like to have it in custom ROMs too.

I know that mostly Custom ROMs have Snapdragon camera, I was saying that mabye I'll try to use Camera FV-5 on some custom to see if there will be manual focus at least (I don't think there will be focus peaking tho). In MIUI installing FV-5 there's not even manual focus, instead on MIUI camera app there's manual focus and focus peaking too.

After Leaving MIUI 8 and choosing CM13 on my mi4i , i just felt miui camera app is awesome. A d after 2 weeks trying every 3rd party camera app, luckily i found a good alternative to this, and that is OPPO camera mod, you can find oppo camera app searching in threads. That works great but i have downloaded a oppo camera version that looks same as R7 camera app. You can try that searching in forums.

Thank you!
Probably I tried some Oppo camera with my Mi4, but I can't remember well.
I'll definitely give it a try, anyway I guess there will not be focus peaking feature.

Actually, Oppo camera app have more features than miui camera app, like HDR, HD pic (more sturations for cropping), slow shutter (lightning painting), Gif, doubke exposure etc etc... All you need is to download 2 apks, 1 for app 1 for plugins.. thats it. I HAVE UPLOADED 2 CAMERA APP INTERFACE SCREEN SHOTS. THATS Mi4i. CM13

If you enable camera2 api, all apps that support it will work. Otherwise, only MIUI camera has it (proprietary api?).

Worth using the Gcam vs stock Moto camera?

With a hell lot of beta versions of gcam being developed daily of different variants, I just wanted to know if it's really worth a shot flashing a custom Oreo ROM and using those Gcams, instead of stock Moto Camera. What are your thoughts?
For me, not really, instead i use snap camera hdr , that app give me better results than gcam but gcam has a faster hdr algorithm that can be essencial for fast moving objects for example, or fast pictures snap. The autofocus of gcam never worked that well for me, but the portrait worked very well. On custom rom you lose slowmotion.

Dude don't listen to this duncan dude. gcam is amazing now. focus is just as good as stock camera and the picture quality is miles ahead. even portrait mode works perfectly fine. the only thing is front portrait is noisy on most camera apps. but the results from back camera are comparable to iphone 7 and s8 and pixel.(seriously- cuz g5 plus uses same sensor as pixel 2)

That sounds great, my sister has a G5 Plus and she always complains about the camera, can you tell me which rom/gcam version can give you those results?
Thanks.

RR ROM or validus or aex

I am using gcam and it is worth a shot. Pictures are amazing using gcam. EIS also improved a lot for videos. The only drawback is slo-mo videos. Hopefully it will be fixed with upcoming Oreo update for g5 plus.......

Wow thanks for this, the pixel2mod v6 beta 11 is the first Google Camera I've found with fully working auto focus. It's also extremely stable, it hasn't crashed yet.

I had Gcam in RR but Slow motion and Paranoma didn't work
The only Benefit of Gcam over Moto cam is Portrait mode
its really good
but due to Volte Issues I had to move to Stock rom.
you can give a Try to Gcam to RR, Worked good for me

32bit Gcam Mod

For those on stock ROM, there is a modded Gcam that works on 32bit. This Gcam does not have all features, only HDR+ on rear Camera, front HDR is borked so needs disabling in the settings if front camera is used. You also need camera2 api support by adding this to your build.prop, "persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1".
The camera was made for Nougat but works on stock Oreo also.
https://potterroms.me/Mods/Camera/GCam_Nougat_3.2.045.apk
Screen attached of the settings to disable front HDR.
Excellent. Thanks for sharing.
portrait mode works?

No, as I said in OP, only HDR+ on main camera. Most features definitely need 64bit rom.
I have been informed that by changing the default black level for front camera to 16, HDR+ works. I can confirm this is true. Thanks to XDA user capedukewuhaha for pointing that out.
Also I can confirm that this 32bit mod actually works better than all the 64bit GCams I have tried on custom ROMs. I am on linage now and this camera works best.
for me, this port doesn't work... i am on moto z2 play stock oreo 8.0 October update
edit: oh, now i see... must be rooted, nah...
i am willing to root because of this moded app... would like to know if there are any improvements in pic quality, some examples? thanks in advance

There is hdr+ and less image processing. Stock camera is better for video, I use both cameras when on stock. If the extra hdr is not important I'd stick with stock since you can use Snapseed to get a similar hdr+ effect on photos. I have something else in testing that reduces the over image processing of stock camera which I will post if it works on Z2P(originally it is for Moto G5 plus, both same hardware almost).

You need root. Add the camera2 api line to your build.prop.

Settings GCam HDR+ 3.2.045.
Model and both cameras - choose Nexus6P.
HDR+ parameters - Super High.
What the front-facing camera would work in HDR+ - Black Level Value(Front) to choose - 17 (but will work both with 16 and with 15 if it is necessary).
What the back camera would record of video - in Resolution & quality - Enable video stabilization(switch off).
With these settings works all but slow motion.

MGC_3.2.045_FINAL_3.1.apk
Anyway, this app is very buggy, if u want to take good shots with it set model to Nexus 6p and auto exposure correction to *2 or Min.ISO.
Remember API2 must be enabled (on stock rom).
But, you won't get amazing pictures with this apk (our sensor, Sony IMX362, is capable of a lot more in terms of quality), HDR+ Algorithm is not very good.
I fixed focus of a bunch of gcams for our device, will post here later maybe (this subforum is dead). You will need 64 bit OS.

Which gcam you use that supports Night Sight ? (Nokia 6 2017)(TA-1033)

Hello,
Which camera supports this feature is best for you and recommends it?
And settings to it, if you have them.

I've noticed that night works much better when Pixel AWB is turned on from the settings. However, please note that the video recording isn't working for me with this version. This one is mainly for Night Sight and Super res zoom etc.
