Lightroom hdr cam trums gcam!

Just tried out the built in cam in lightroom for diffrent scenarios. It really bests both the built in cam and the gcam for both normal and hdr scenarios. Try adobe lightrooms cam out with HDR enabled. Skip the gcam hype.

Samples or examples please

Just one example zoomed in. This was at night. Much more dnr dynamic range with lightroom cam.
Even more pronounced in daylight though. But test it for yourelf. The image file is 40mb un edited. Any serious photographer on any phone should use the lightroom cam from now on.

Some proof lightroom camera totally BLOWS google camera away
https://s.amsu.ng/0NNCM4jQVwxN

These are max zoom ins. And not even in any hard hdr scenario. In a scenario where hdr is needed the lightroom camera is even more overpowered.

Looks impressive. Cheers.

App link?

Just go into playstore and search for and download
"Adobe lightroom".
Now there would be nice to compair the pixel2 and the note8 with both cams using lightroom hdr camera to really se what phone takes the best pics.

No. Does it require root? Wher can one get it? Id like to compaire it.
- i just tried it! Amazing! BUT SLOW. alot slower than lightroom. Tomorrow i will compair it with lightroom for quality. Sad the final hdr picture from open camera isnt in RAW format. I will post back on details of quality in 24 hrs.

Open camera has raw format.

Yeah but no raw format for the hdr image using hdr function. Lightroom does hdr out of raw files whereas im thinking lr cam is better. But ofc we need to test.

I just tested lowlight.
1. Lightroom preserves more detail and more dnr
2. Opencamera hdr is more compressed ie less detail but less noise. (You could still do manual nrd on lr)
3. No majour differences but a minor plus for the LR cam. LR cam is also quicker.
summary. Lightroom is best. Its quick and gives a bit better quality due to rawfiles in its hdr compaired to opencamera.

Example. Lr on the right. Quite alot more detail zoomed in very much. Opencamera gets very muddy and there is no way you can see each tile on the house.

Hello,
I want to use the ported version of the Gcam on my Galaxy J5(2017) with Android 7.0 and Exynos 7870 Octa. Can someone help me with an Android 7.0 version of this port?
Thank you.

What about the portrait mode in Lightroom, most of the people use GCam only for its exceptional portrait mode option!

DNG Samples - Camera quality

Would anyone be able to share DNG samples from the stock app vs Gcam?
I'm trying to see if the raw files have good quality.

Upper one is gcam, lower one is open camera, both raws edited with same preset in Lightroom. Since the google raws still use merging, they get all the benefit as jpeg... I recommend using hdr+ enhanced with 8 frames, but it can make merging mistakes; something like merging a carpet with table, it looks weird, so when that happens, just use plain hdr+ - which has a bit worse noise, but makes less mistakes, also I recommend at least 80 sharpen and 40 saturation, and lowering highlights by 100...

Is there any app that can capture RAW files with 64MP camera?

Is there any app that can capture RAW files with the 64MP camera?
I understand it's actually an 80MP camera, but 64MP jpg's are produced by the camera app.
Thanks.

Will the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro camera app work? Just to check the difference.

BTW, just discovered a GCam version for Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro. Hardware is very similar to X2 pro ....

Not working for me. App doesn't install

I am also ver interested in getting RAW images from this phone ....no matter the megapixels 16 or 64 ( of course 64 megapixel will be better)
Maybe someone could port the Gcam from Redmi as they use the same main 64 megapixel sensor.

yes must get 64 mp raw files

It does appear as though the X2 Pro can now capture RAW files!
When in the camera and you select Expert, you can toggle whether to capture in RAW format or not. The phone takes two pictures in one shot; one in JPG, the other in RAW

That's good, would you be able to share a stock cam RAW?
Also, I know from experience in other phones that the GCAM DNG file is usually better.
Would you be able to share both a stock cam DNG and a GCAM DNG ?
Thank you and have a nice weekend !

Bigger one was taken Stock Macro but can't do Raw with macro edited with snapseed.
Smaller was with Gcam set to Raw. Edited with snapseed

Question Best GCam For Edge20?

Which GCam mod works the best for Edge20, for all the 3 lenses present?

I am currently using the one by BSG v8.1
It works fine for all lenses, except that it produces that wierd fisheye effect with the ultra wide lense.

One question guys! Does anyone notice the extreme lag when using the camera indoors? Not even with low light but "normal"... It makes almost impossible to take a picture without being blurred, since it also takes a few seconds to shoot.

Yes, I agree with that. This happens with the Stock Camera app
Hence I use Gcam, Which works perfectly in this case. There is no lag in Gcam

Hmm, I tried several versions of GCam and still getting lag... A bit less but still noticeable.
Could you tell me what version of GCam are you using? Thanks on beforehand!

Can anyone share a working Config file with all correct settings for GCAM BSG v8.1.101 ?

I'm also looking for a setting for it but no luck so far, I'm stressed that the image on the screen looks good but when you take the picture it looks a bit more blurry. As if it were being Post-Processed. I want me to take the photo as it is taken by the sensor but unfortunately even in RAW the photo is retouched.

Yes, and unfortunately the image looks just as processed. The strangest thing is that when capturing the image with HDR it should be seen with its respective dynamic range, but to my surprise the Normal/HDR+/HDR+ Enhanced photos look exactly the same. To take photos with HDR I had to resort to apps like Open Camera. So I use 3 camera apps on my phone.
The Stock App for videos, GCam for photos and Open Camera for HDR/DRO or photos with custom Bracketing

I think you should try different gcam versions from another modders. New ones like LMC 8.4 gcam or Shamim version (V9fix). Shamim build is maybe little easier one to use than LMC.

But do the other lenses work for them? Because I have tried Unysx 8.4 (Or something like that it was called) and I only have the SuperResZoom but not the other lenses.

Same as other GCam, it does not take HDR photos but takes clearer photos. The dark ones stay darker while the costs shine a lot. I'm taking the photos in RAW with HDR in Adobe Lightroom

If I save them regardless of the settings, the problem is that the photos should be HDR but instead I get normal photos.

Question 64 MP RAW photo possible?

I am interested in this phone. I know it can take 64 MP JPGs with the stock camera app and also some GCam ports. But what about 64 MP RAW photos, can they be taken either in stock camera app or GCam? And if so, can anybody share some samples?

Please do, that would be much appreciated. Outdoors in daylight with some vegetation would be the most interesting, but anything will do.
I presume GCam then can only do JPGs, but not DNG in 64 MP?

Weather sucks atm so I did not go out and it is pretty dark in right now. If it is not getting better today, I'll try to take the pictures inside with a lot of light

Thanks a lot. I would say noise looks surprisingly good here. Huawei P40 Pro seems much noisier after you transform RYYB to RGGB, and that is with much larger individual pixels. And the ZF8 has OIS, so exposure longer than 1/50 s with lower ISO should still be possible for static scenes...

Yes, it was okay for handheld, although I thought it went up at above iso 400.
For a handheld camera it was very good and it looked very natural
