Here is a tip to improve selfie picture quality - Samsung Galaxy A70 Guides, News, & Discussion

Use the ar emoji camera instead of the default one, the picture just comes out way better, there's more detail and better colors.
Idk why but when using the stock app the picture looks ok on the viewfinder, but when you take the picture the quality just drops a ton, even on Instagram i get better selfies.

when taking a selfie use the wide angle camera its not actually taking a wider pic but instead not croping the image so you get a higher resolution selfie pic.

[Q] Zoom in Camera

Hi,
is there a way to increase the camera 2xzoom to e.g. 4xzoom?
maybe in the registry, like adding new shot-modes?
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the zoom is digital (ie. not optical). So there's really no difference in taking a 2x-zoomed pic versus a 1x-zoomed pic magnified 200%. So, 4x-zoomed pic would just be a 1x-zoomed pic magnified 400%.
Bring your digital cam if you really want serious pics.

Yes that is right. In fact if you want digital zoom anyways, take photos without it and magnify them on the PC. The quality most likely will be better, especially if you use special programs like PhotoZoom.
And the last part is most important. Sensors and lenses of phones' cameras are crap compared to any real (serious) compact camera.

P20 pro photo colors

Hi everybody,
Anyone else here having the same issue
I think there are some issues with software regarding image colors.. Resolution and focus are gr8 but the images sometimes looks washed out(specially front cam) and some times looks so sharpened
This issue is confirmed after i saw mkbhd camera blind test
Can we open a ticket with customer support regarding this issue?
I'am so confused about that issue.. the camera hardware is gr8 by the way.. And the night images specially are gr8
Apparently the front facing camera is improved in future updates. As for being washed out, I think this is because the camera is overexposing slightly.
As for the over sharpening, if you install snapseed from the play store you can reduce the detail which effectively reduces the over sharpening.
I'd rather have a slightly sharper image I can reduce the sharpness, than something from the S9 for example which is not sharp enough.
It's kind of like having better low light capability than the S9, with sharper images than the Pixel 2. The only thing the Pixel 2 does better is takes pictures of is moving flowers and selfies.
Hi guys..
I have discovered an alternative camera app that solves the overexposure/soft images of the native camera app.
Image 1 - Taken with the CameraMX app.
Image 2 - Taken with Native p20 pro cam
As you can see, there is a noticeable quality difference in terms of contrast, details, color temperature and saturation. Personally, i like Image 1 better
I'm on update 128 and the front camera still overexposed.
It's not over exposed, the white balance is more accurate.

Even after all the updates, is it still better to shoot pictures in 10mp vs 40mp?

When this phone launched, the general concensus was to shoot pictures in 10mp mode since I had better detail. But I was wondering if that was still the case after all of the updates we've had?
I still do it at 10MP because the sensor doesn't seem to be really good at 40MP, I see blemishes everywhere.
The 40mp sensor gives awesome pics in good light situations. No were near the 10mp setting. I only use the 10mp settings in poor lighting condition.

If you are in good lighting then from my experience 40mp mode gives far better results. Its obviously not on par with a ~42mp photo from something like a Sony a7R but its still pretty impressive what it can do. Attached is 2 photos taken at basically the same time. One is a 40MP taken in Pro mode and the other is a 10mp HDR shot. Obviously the 10mp hdr shot is better when not zoomed in at all because of the properly exposed highlights, but the detail is quite inferior.
So the take away is, use the mode for what you are shooting. You cannot do 40mp hdr shots, or at least with the camera version I am using on lineage.

10MP HDR shot

Photo quality

Say "cheese", then rate this thread to express how photos taken with the Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) come out. A higher rating indicates that photos offer rich color (without over-saturating), sharp detail (with all subjects in-focus), and appropriate exposure (with even lighting).
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
So i took few photos.

Coming from an S8 plus, is this an upgrade when it comes to camera?

My pro zoom edition just arrived 3 days ago. Before I had the exynos s8+. I am waiting for the bootloader unlock by xiaiomi, but I can already tell you that even with china rom and stock camera it is a big jump
Just few point and shoot pictures (k30 pro zoom edition) with stock miui camera.

Hello Team
Can anybody share few photos of example documents? [newspaper, school-book, book, etc]. Taken indoor [so it means under "mean" light conditions].
For me it is interested how this phone handle such photos.
One thing Ive noticed when I was taking photos of documents/book pages was that it blurs on the periphery. It's clear on the center, but becomes *very subtly* blurry on the outward edges as if you've moved your hand for a split second. I shoot in a well lit room with light (bulb and natural light, and I shoot from the above (natch) so Im not sure why the focus is not uniform and. has blurring on the edges. Also using gcam btw: Twichaya2.

I noticed the same thing in the photo comparison tool from gsmarena.com: https://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=5&idPhone1=10220&idPhone2=10097&idPhone3=9816
I wonder how pronounced the effect is in real world usage, keeping in mind that for some photos of humans, the face is at the edge of the frame.
this is why I asked for real examples. I have seen the same "issue" with many other cameras.

Question Blurry photos at night with front camera

Hi, I can't take any good picture at night with the front camera. Any little movement to take the picture makes the blurry picture. I can only take a "good" picture if the mobile is in a tripod.
It happens to someone else?
Cheers.

We have a terrible selfie camera. Like most devices BBK. You can get a good picture only by using GCAM.
