Dear all,
I noticed that I cannot use any third party app to capture RAW photos. I tried Footej Camera, Open Camera, Adobe Lightroom, VSCO, Lumio Cam and everything I could find. I cannot enable raw photos with any of them. Footej support contacted me and told me that they can try to find a workaround from the log file I generated, it seems that this phone does not support Android API. Do you guys have any knowledge about this?
The only app that seems to record some sort of RAW file is Bacon Cam, but this does not have support for the telephoto lens, and all the raw photos with zoom, are actually cropped from the 40 mpx sensor.
Freedcam can do raw: https://t.me/joinchat/BdeA6xCXJ-DvG0wT_kjW-A
Even the stock camera app will not give you a raw file from the telephoto lens. You can't use zoom when you enable RAW in Pro mode.
Thank you, I tried Freed am and unfortunately it does not let me use raw mode, only jpeg.

If you aren't aware, our camera now has the ability to shoot in RAW. Our default camera doesn't have the option ,but if you download another app such as camera fv-5, it actually saves files in the DNG format. Also, our stock gallery can't read those formats, so you'll need another app as well.
Hi guys,
I've modded the camera by adding a setting to build.prop: 'persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1'
This unlocked nicely Camera 2 API, that was confirmed by Manual Camera Compatibility app (all green).
Now I can use for example Lightroom camera for manual settings, but when I choose DNG as the forat to save it crashes Lightroom app.
The FV-5 camera does not even allow me to choose DNG. So is this phone capable of using DNG?
I'm on MIUI Global 8.2 stable.
I have enabled Camera API2 on my phone but Lightroom can't import the DNG, even those capture by Lightroom.
I use Photo Mate R3. It work very well.
Use the Adobe DNG Converter

Just have enabled the Camera API2 on build.props and use any camera software that capture raw. I use ProShot to capture and Pro Mate R3 to edit.

Gotcha!
So this is what is going on: Indeed, any camera capable of API2 produce DNG files. Lightroom too. But, Lightroom camera crashes when saving DNG and cannot read them (even that it captured it itself). Pro Mate R3 can read it indeed. DNG files are invisible in Google Pictures, they are only visible in file explorer (or capable applications like Pro Mate R3).
Lightroom can capture and process DNGs using front camera. This is about Lightroom 2.3.2
Thanks for clarification!
Hi guys! I tried some Gcam ports and after installing a conf file in the xcam6_beta5 app, my 48mpx camera just stopped working even in the stock app. Other Gcam apps can use it but it just magnifies the image and produces zero-quality pictures. What is more, when I open the stock app and go to the 48mp option, it uses the telephoto lens and captures a 6000x8000 resolution picture. I can't imagine how possible is this. Can anyone suggest some solution? FYI, the other two lenses work fine.
Edit: Just found out that standard portrait mode uses 48mpx camera but magnified like 3 times in the stock app.
Hello All!
I tried to use OpenCamera for RAW shooting because the stock camera app does not provide Histogram and Zebra overlays which I consider absolutely necessary.
However, the RAW option is not present in OpenCamera and also OpenCamera's debug information states that RAW would not be available.
Is this a known problem with the P30 Pro and does a workaround exist?
Thank you in advance!
RAW works in different apps, you have to test it.
Hi
Been using a V50, that is identical to the V40 camera wise, for a couple of days comig from a V30.
Regarding RAW capture with the stock camera the output seems much worse than the V30 - the DNG files have vignetting and are very desaturated, noting like the output on the V30 and previous LG phones that had this corrected.
Using a 3rd party camera app, the DNG files don't have vignetting but are still very desaturated.
I'm on android 10. Does the V40 also has these issues, having the same camera hardware?
Thanks
Hi!
The V40 does actually have the same problems. Well, DNG files as RAW files by nature contain the unprocessed information what the camera saw when it took the picture, including all optical imperfections and sensor noise. I have a SONY a6000 mirrorless camera at home, and it also has these "problems". It is how it is... Instead of the camera software doing the hard work, it leaves it to you to decide what do you wanna do with the image. Using Lightroom Mobile, you can fix both vignetting and barrel distortion by enabling Lens Profile Corrections. There is also an Auto setting for the colours too. (and a built in capture mode with DNG support which automatically applies lens prifile corrections if I remember correctly) But if you do not want to go through all these to get a decent picture, why all the fuss, just use JPEG. The stock cam app can do awesome images with its built in post processing algorithm, I barely use RAW mode, unless I wanna do something really specific and go hard on editing.
