I don't understand why the rest of SD865 phones have 8K video recording while OP8Pro doesn't have. I am sure sensor supports it but they didn't enable in camera app. Is there a way to enable it or any 3rd party app that I can use? If not then any news if its coming in Android 11?
Still 8K not good Video in smartphone

You can try "open camera" in the Video options you can select an 8k resolution and record a file with this resolution but I don't know if it will look better than 4k
Do you have an 8k TV to watch it on?
What is the point?
I don't even use 4k, even my TV is 1080p
Pc 2560x1080 ultra wide.
Sure there's a difference but you'll never be able to see it.
The camera does 4K because it's a 4K camera, that's that.
There is no way you can make a 4K shoot in 8K.
You could upscale a 4K video but that's it

Just fyi, 8k resolution is not showing up in Open camera because the phone simply don't support it.
I'd rather have 4K recording on selfie camera tbh.
Yep, 4K is good enough to go for me...

You do realize that 8K is around 33MP? The Main sensor has 48MP. The Chipsets and the Sensor should easily be able to handle it. It's just one of those weird decisions oneplus made, like disabling the near Infrared camera. Absolutely stupid.

Not sure it's as simple as that buddy. A case of flicking a switch, yes one of them cameras is 48MP.
Plus like I said unless you've got a ridiculous TV there is no point in 8K. The screen on the 8 pro isn't even 8K.
So not stupid at all.
The photochrom camera I can use just fine, sure it's via the engineer menu or an app but it's working.
Bottom line with the camera set is that they are what they are. A thread here won't change that.

Yeah, i use the photochrome camera the same way. It works but it's not very elegant.
The ISP and the SOC are both capable of recording at 8K. Im not talking about wether it's a good idea to record at 8K, but why oneplus won't let us.
Yea, a thread on XDA probably won't change anything but it provides a platform to discuss that topic. That's what a forum is for.
Also, technically 2 cameras are 48MP, the normal and the ultrawide. The main camera uses the Sony IMX 689 and the ultrawide uses the IMX 586. The ISP is a Spectra 480 which is capable of recording at 8K 30FPS.
So yeah, the phone can do it but OnePlus decided not to implement it.

2x 48mp? Really?
I dunno about 8k I don't even record in 4k pal lol.
I've no use for it really do 8k is overkill. Can't wait for the day it's mainstream but I think we're a way off yet.
There must have been reasoning for them not implementing it.

hello there
i was wondering on this issue.
the snapdragon 800 supposedly can do real 720P slo-mo at 120fps. right?
well, i checked many YT videos of the NOTE 3 alongside the A7's similar slo-mo (apple's 5S),
and it DOES NOT LOOK 720P at all. it looks pixelated, or better say, UPSCALED 480p.
while the A7 produce a video that's really usable, and really looks like genuine 720P.
why is that? from the specs i read on the SD800 it clearly says it HAS that capability.
this is a feature i just gotta have in my next phone and i want an Android phone with proper screen size.
any thoughts on the matter?
thanks!
Hmm I think you got it completely wrong..

yea i saw it, thanks.
whether of not this is true, i could see with my own eyes from the many YT 720P videos that it's vastly superior to any other rivals with this option.
mainly the Note 3.
so they say the 5S is not genuine 720p? so it means the Note 3 is even less than 480p? i need FACTS.
and my eyes tell me the 5S looks like 720P. and the NOTE 3 looks like an upscaled 480p
please look in YT and tell me i'm wrong?
the 5S videos are usable to me. the NOTE 3 aren't.
so, why is that?
I don't have any reason to not believe you but.
To me it looks like genuine 720p. GSM arena a respectable site says it's genuine, while the 5s is not, so..
It seems to me maybe you have individual issues with it. Did you try flashing the APK camera again or another rom maybe this will solve your issue?
Worst case scenario is that you have a faulty camera and you need to give it for a repair?

you misunderstood me.
i don't own a Note 3. i am looking for an Android device that can do a decent 720p slo-mo,
and from all the latest snapdragon's out there, the Note is the only one that claims to do a real 720p slo-mo.
i looked at many comparisons videos on youtube, downloaded them and studied them.
conclusion: the 5S is doing at least a x2 better job, whether it's fake or not.
if you could upload a sample of a 120fps slo-mo from your Note 3 and let me study it, i might be proven wrong.
but from MANY samples on YT, my eyes tell me a different story. please check for yourself and tell me.
(i'm not allowed to paste links yet, sorry)
btw - the gsm arena themselves say that they took a 720p video (NOT slo-mo) from the Note 3 and compared it to the 5S slo-mo, so obviously they didn't compare it right imo.
Ok I will be Cpt Obvious but... Do not trust YT. Or the internet samples from the vast majority of YT channels. I only read respectable sites and not the biased stories of every guy that posts or reposts the same videos with unproven or unscientific or biased methods.
Beyond all that, logic says a smartphone that can shoot 4K video @30fps and [email protected] certainly can do 720p @120fps. Especially with a processor like the S800.
If I have some time to upload a video I will do it for you, but I can't make any promises.

Read the article again carefully. They did that since iPhone 5s does not support regular 720p video . Also the method is more than legit if you follow their logic. I am sorry to say that again but I would take the GSM Arena's findings any day over a YT's channel.

This is going to sound like a stupid question, but how do you set the frame rate? I can set the resolution to 720p but I see no options for framerate.

Once you choose the video resolution you open the "gear" menu and select the recording mode from a videocam icon that is there. There is no 30/60/120, just normal,fast,slow/smooth/limit for MMS options,depending on the video resolution you choose.
Thanks, I managed to find the options. There are actually some other options as well, you can set 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 (default).
I've made two quick recordings of me picking up a pen and dropping it, one in slow-mo (1/8) and one at regular 720p. There's a definite difference in quality, I think.
Rather than upping them to youtube, here are the files straight from the device for a better comparison:

He's not kidding. I think many people can't tell. It does indeed look pixelated and i'm here in Singapore. I showed my friend and she can't tell, i wish everyone in the world can't tell so we can all just live a big lie but it's pretty obvious there if u compare it with another 720p at 30fps
I'm just surprise that there isn't too many mentioned about it. :laugh: Sad to say, cos of this issue, i haven't been doing any 120fps video cos of the bad quality, a feature i was really excited over nothing. I wish Samsung would fix it though, if they even think it's a problem to begin with.

There are three modes for slow-mo.
If you select slow-mo 1/2 videos are recorded at true 720p - 120fps (quality is same as with regular 720p)
If you select 1/4 or 1/8 slo-mo (slower movements) videos are recorded at 240/480 fps and resolution is definitely lower (probably 480p upscaled) and you could clearly see difference in quality as well as pixelation.
Try recording at 1/2!

Tried. Quality looks better but i'm pretty sure that's not 120fps? Cos it's almost the same speed as a normal 30fps. Regardless, i think it's really poor. I hate to say this but iPhone 5S one looks way better even though it's not true 720p. And it can actually vary the speed, which is really nice.
Weird thing is the FHD 60fps look so much better that perhaps they should go for 120fps at FHD
I have the same problem.I would like to record 720p at 1/8.Isn't there any third party app that can help us or does it have something to do with hardware limitations?

Just wondering if anyone know if the LG G2 official lollipop update have 4k video camera?
I don't see why not (other than interfering with LG G3 and higher-end phone sales). All the G2 4k mods that are well over a year old now have performed solidly, and evidently more reliable than other phones that officially had 4k functionality.
The updates apparently have been rolling out in other countries...........anyknow know?

Nah it won't. In that aspect, LG is not better than any other major supplier.
Heck, they even removed wireless storage in the official Korean ROM without adding new features.
As i know, korean g2 users who update to lollipop doesn't have 4k option. But probably it will be a mod like Xcam for 5.0
korean g2 did not get 4K camera. So we can easily say that we wont have 4K. The thing is 4K is about hardware.And i guess our camera sensors are not capable of 4K. I don`t know i might be wrong

The G2 is very capable of 4k (UHD) There have been great mods out for more than a year. via Xdabbeb, Cloudy roms are wonderful. etc. Example the Cloudy G3 roms for G2 all have solid working 4k camera apps built-in.

g3 has the same chip as g2. only additionally has lazer focus. so anything can g3 do, g2 should do too camera wise.
I don`t understand why all G2 users crying about 4K video. All you have 4K TVs at home....? In my opinion it is completely inusable! Even on big TV human eye is incapapble to make difference between 4K and FullHD from distance more than 1-2 metres... FPS are those who make the difference in video quality and I`m very happy that we have FullHD on 60fps...
4k resolution looks better on a fullhd screen than a fullhd video. Think it's called scaling or something I think, could be wrong though
Try watching this video for example:

We are quite capable of discerning the difference, even without displaying it on a native 4k monitor, that being said, this is XDA my friend If we can, we will!
To the OP: I wouldn't count on LG to support it officially, but I have my hopes up that XDABBEB can/will cook it up.
I dont know much about the technical details or ramifications of how lollipop handles camera drivers and stuff, but I figure the probability of being able to do it are pretty high since the hardware does it.

I've been using the Galaxy S8 Plus until I received my solar red U11 yesterday (glad I waited, it's very nice looking). Anyway, I am very impressed with the photo image quality of the phone (it is very comparable to the S8), but I have a few nitpicks about the video recording:
1) No 1080p/60 mode. I really don't understand why it doesn't have a 60fps mode when even phones from 2016 had it? It has 1080p/30 and 1080p/120 (for slow motion), so why no 1080/60? Is it overheating concern?
2) No way to turn of EIS in 1080p video recording mode? While 1080p is very stable due to its combined OIS and EIS, it also crops the view significantly when recording video in this mode (compare it to 4k, which is quite a bit wider but has no EIS). Anyway, the EIS is nice if you want that, but I think there needs to be a toggle or option to turn off EIS and have the wide recording mode in 1080p that is like the 4k mode. As it stands, there does not appear to be a way to change this.
3) 6 minute recording limit in 4k. I guess it's also due to overheating concerns, but why not just make it unlimited and have the phone's temperature monitoring stop recording automatically if it gets to a certain temp? Some people are reporting overheating stoppages even before the 6 minutes, but in cooler environments, we may be able to record indefinitely in 4k.
Things I DO like about the U11's camera though...
1) Photo app and quality are excellent. Nice Pro mode too.
2) Glad I can lock exposure and focus during video recording very easily.
3) Focusing pulling with the touch screen is very nice on the U11 (it doesn't rock back and forth when focusing like many other phone cameras).
4) Audio recording options are very nice (3d audio vs hi-res, and acoustic focus)

Thanks! It's good to see that they are working on adding 1080p/60, though it appears to be a ways off.
Another thing that bothers me (when compared to the S8 or iPhone 7) is that I can't seem to take a photo while recording in 4k. I'm not sure if that's a software or hardware limitation, but I used that all the time on those phones. I really like using the squeeze to open the camera, take a photo, and switch between front and rear cameras though!

Try Open Camera on XDA, it works shooting 1080P without EIS and no time length limitation on 4K.
I've also see the same issue on the HTC 10 in regards to the 4k and taking a photo while recording if you can call it an issue. I suppose no one had complained about it and they left it unchanged

It's a nice camera app, thanks. Tried various settings in the app for video recording. Looks like no matter what framerate you choose, it can't go above 30fps. I thought maybe it would let me shoot 1080p/60, but nope (even when setting it to 60fps, it still records at 30). Also doesn't seem to be a way to take a photo while shooting video in this app? Nice that you can shoot longer than 6 minutes in 4k though (I didn't try it yet, but I assume it works).

I call it an "issue" only because I have come to expect it when shooting video now. In fact, I used it quite frequently on my iPhone and Galaxy S8. Being able to take a photo without interrupting the video recording is a pretty important feature, in my opinion. I suppose one could load up the video in software and capture a frame manually, but it's a feature that other flagships have, so I miss it.

Indeed, my old year 2012 HTC One S supported shooting FHD video and taking a real photo at the same time and I owned a Galaxy S6 support that feature too. However, I think during 4K recording that no phone could take a real photo, all they do is just capture a frame from video clip and pretend that is a photo.

Right, I understand it's not an actual "photo" at the highest resolution, but I would still like the convenience of capturing a frame during 4k video recording like I can on all of the other flagships phones.
Wow I'm glad I found this post, I thought I was going crazy with the issues you mentioned, especially the cropped 1080p video! I hope they can fix that with the 60fps update, because it is really annoying.

1080p60 is being introduced in stock ROMs with versions 1.26 and higher.
Do you know if EIS for 4k video is planned? Thinking about buying the U11 instead of the much too expensive Pixel 2, but the lack of EIS in this case is a bit of a bummer.
Hi everyone! I'm new here.
I was interested in this phone (x722) because its crazy cheap for what it offers, but at the same time I am interested in a phone with a good video recording (with stabilization) so before buying I wanted to check.
I was wondering if anyone having the x722 and having installed a custom rom and the GCam port, could tell me how it stabilizes, in which settings (4k, 1080) and if its possible to record 1080/60fps videos aswell?
If some nice person around here would do some test and check if it stabilizes video well and can record 1080/60 it would be great.
Thanks a lot in advance! Hope to see some useful replies
I don't have proof, but people like the camera when they're using it with the modded Gcam. 60fps recording should work with modded Gcam, but it doesn't work normally, i.e. with the stock camera or OpenCamera, despite giving you the 60fps recording option. The IMX298 takes decent 60fps, nothing special. About on par with the iPhone 6. But I don't think you get video stabilization at all. You'll have to stabilize it yourself in Google photos or something.
Source: I owned a Zenfone 3, which has the same sensor.

The OP3T has pretty good electronic stabilization and uses the same IMX298 sensor aswell, so its definitely not a sensor problem in your Zenfone.
The LeEco pretty much has the same capabilities as the OP3/3T, it should be perfectly doable
I don't know, I guess the app would have to give you the option for stabilization. I just tested video recording on my phone and it doesn't have stabilization. I used Open Camera. I'm not rooted so I can't try the modded Gcam.

Yes, I was asking to people that had a custom Nougat ROM + Google Cam 5.0
Could someone in general post pictures and videos taken on the X722 with gcam? I am thinking of buying this Phone.
Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the Sony Xperia 1 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
My initial experience is it struggles to focus when recording video
And it seriously overheats when recording 4k video for any reasonable length of time.
The 1080p video is class leading: no quibbles there. It's absolutely the best, most stable 1080p footage you can get, with brilliant immersive sound recording.
The 4k,... notsomuch. The image itself is fine - good colours and great DR for 4K but Sony really need to work on their stabilisation. The most recent update has helped but it still struggles some on the horizontal axis, making it not as stable as competitors. The EIS is not working well with the OIS.
So it's a mixed bag and one that is a software update away from fixing. But if you keep it on 1080p then you're in for a treat.

I've had the June update, yes. Some improvement but it still struggles not to jump on the horizontal axis, which it still does. Fine if you're not walking but really distracting if you are.
There is actually an answer to the problem, I've discovered - so long as you're not wedded to the SteadyCam effect: switch stabilisation off entirely.
Yes, really.
The stabilisation toggle seems to apply only to the EIS not the OIS, which is automatic. As it's the EIS not playing well with the OIS that is causing the issue, switching it off actually fixes it.
Your videos no longer "float": it looks like you're walking. But you're walking,... Smoothly.
@Timaustin2000 is there any way to turn it off for CinemaAlta app?

I believe that OIS is locked in the Cinema Pro app, in that neither EIS or OIS are working. Apparently it's so that you can get better results on a tripod but I do wish they'd add it as an option - not everyone can justify buying a gimbal.
Hey guys,
I shot this video on our beloved Xperia 1.
As the video description says, I'm not a pro. In fact this is my first time shooting travel/cinematic video. Got encouraged because of how Sony advertised this(these) camera(s). This device inspires creativity.
Anyway, great potential in this thing to be out there at the top of smartphone camera game.
Please share your thoughts.

Yes, I used Cinema Pro app for all clips before latest firmware update. Also I used my roommate's Snoppa Atom gimbal, it was struggling a bit to stabilize phone of Sony Xperia1's size. Both previous firmware and gimbal did not help much with stabilization.
Hello, is there anyone that knows how can I record a 1080P video with 120fps? I tried some apps, they only can record with 60fps .
Thanks~
Just been to see Metallica. Took this video on my Xperia 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LilEirkBxRM.
The sound quality is awful.
I wish device supported 4K 60fps or CinemaPro app let us shoot 1080p 60/120fps videos. Slowing them to 50% would make "cinematic" video experience far better.

In fairness, that comparison tool does show that the Xperia 1 captures some pretty great detail.

It's good quality but it's not the best, especially when comparing with those 2 and against a previous generation phone....

Horrid. The HTC U11 and U12+ easily beat that. This is very disappointing.
