What are the best Camera apps for the Redmi Note 4 right now? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers

Hi, new user here. I have finally managed to unlock and install a custom ROM (RR) on my Redmi Note 4. I'm not satisfied with the quality and features in the default camera app. Can you guys get me updated on what's the best camera app for this phone right now. I'd like to have manual controls (at least manual focus) and good HDR.
I have tried the ported Google Camera but unfortunately it doesn't have manual focus and frame rate seems to be locked at 60fps.

Ofc it does have manual focus, what are u talking about?

AFAIK Google Camera does not have manual focus. It only has tap to focus.

If you're point n shot guy then Google Camera Mod with HDR+ is the best
if you like to play with focus, iso, shutter, etc then stock Camera Mod is quite good, you can also try One plus camera and of course open camera and freedcam.

But correct me if I'm wrong stock camera mod is only for miui rom. I will check out the other ones meanwhile.

I just flashed the v7 of this camera and as for now it seems to be a much better camera apk than the snapdragon apk.
I like how many features it has, especially the EIS.
The only bug I've found is that if I enable the "Power button as a shutter" then I have FC all the time (have to wipe it's data then).
Zooming isn't good with this camera as objects become way-to pixelated when zoomed in. Tried to do this same thing with cyanogenmod's default camera and the object was much more clearer and less pix-elated. Plus the use power button as shutter button makes the app crash all the time.
Edit - While focus works nice in both front and back camera, it doesn't show the focus ring in front camera.

Well, there's no focus mechanism in the camera, so what kind of focus are you expecting? The face detection?
---------------
I just did some low light tests.
Tbh, there's no difference in the noise amount. Both pictures look ****ty + the pictures from this camera are all white, I mean like there's almost no color in the pictures. The stock camera wins in the color reproduction in those conditions easily.

Im taking about touch to focus. It doesn't have touch to focus when using front camera, whereas cyanogenmod's default camera has. don't know about miui default camera.
It takes bright pictures in low light, but It's just too white in normal condition!
Plus,stock camera has better details. Slightly better.
One more thing, there is no 120fps slowmotion for HD resolution. and I don't know if 60fps FHD works or not.
Worse than Snap Camera included in latest CM13 build (balika). The chroma noise reduction is worst...
v22 works on miui. will be glad if you can upload latest updates here
Well this is like dream come true. For video shooting, this is the best camera app for redmi note 3 atleast. It has features like video stablisation, h.265 encoding and the best of all, it is able to save the video to sd card. (I previously tried an apk of camera next from apkmirror and it was not able to dave on sd card) . And for still shotss also, it has denoise feature, which I missed back then in camera next. Thank you so much. Now there is no need to go back to miui any more. You made my day.

AZ camera for Oneplus X

I came to know that AZ camera works only for the devices which have camera 2 api and I have Sultan's cyanogenmod build running up so are there any ideas to port that camera to be running up with the Sultan's camera library which is said to be able to capture high res pics and manual controls.
And also pl specify some manual camera apps that function completely with Sultan's camera libs.
Thanks in advance....
Snap Camera HDR is the only camera app I've found that functions completely with it. Complete manual control (including manual focus). The only thing it doesn't have that I would like is a long exposure option but honestly it doesn't work in Camera FV-5 anyways.
Try bacon camera. It have all manual control, like iso, ev, wb, and shutter speed

I'd recommend the Bacon camera too, it's great! It has manual controls and the pictures are great with it.
Our camera only supports the camera 1 API. Sorry
Are there any methods of getting raw camera support through any app?
Bacon camera has a raw option in settings. Could anyone get that to work with sultanxda half and cm?
We will never have RAW support on OPX.
Nor nougat and VOLTE by the way.
Just deal with it !

In fact I was wrong on one point :
Some devs have suuceeded in bringing raw support for OPX in an app. It's rudimebntal for now, but freedcam opened a breach...

Ah, did you try clean flashing other Roms? Top of it, Mido's custom Roms have camera bugs, like video recording isn't working blah blah. :/

I'm not a noob......Camera is definitely dark with 30 fps recording but with some apps it records bright but at about 17-19 fps

Ah, sorry for the late response, went off for few hours.
I wish I could help you on this, but I never clicked either pics or recording video on my Mido. All I heard was there are bugs with camera on mido custom ROMs.
While recording video its just stuck few seconds/mins later. And one who got omnivision camera, isn't working. Apart from that I've no idea about camera.
Did you try enabling camera2 API? It has anything to do with that? I guess.
I already use many other camera apps, Google Cam, OnePlus cam, Footej, Snapdragon Cam
But, all same.
I will try to enabling camera2 API
Thanks @sachin n
Btw my sensor Samsung not Omnivision
Screenshot Added
Using Google Camera
And Stock AEX Camera
With Samsung sensor i have the same problem with Mediatek or Snapdragon variants
Same here, in low light camera is very dark. AOSP video camera in better light condition is better and smoother than miui btw

We're looking for something more stock, that works with all camera apps, maybe a mod for the ROM/kernel
Use moto camera it fixes it
I also have this bug, also with the Samsung sensor ofilm_s5k3l8. Sensor does not get set to the proper ISO or brightness or such, it is really bad. As asusm930 wrote, ported Moto G cam fixes this and is a nice camera otherwise as well. And it is the only cam I found so far that fixes it. You can get it here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/themes/camera-t3667358
I have samsung sensor but only with OnePlus camera, I haven't this issue. So I use gcam for photos, and Opcamera for video

Do you use the version from here (v 2.0) or some other? https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...-plus-5-camera-port-redmi-note-4-7-0-t3656125
Looks quite good, and seems to give better color reproduction in low light video. Though the photo part is buggy. Flash light is not synchronized with shutter, so it basically does not work and HDR is crossed out for me. Bugger, I would prefer to have one app for both photos and video.
i have same issue

[PORT] OP5 camera ported to work with OP3T on Oxygen OS

First of all, I didn't make this port just found it here, so I just wanted to share it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73295122&postcount=10
Things are I confirm that are working:
-Shot on OnePlus watermark
-OIS in 720p, 1080p (not with EIS tough)
-Manual mode with the histogram (Max ISO 800 only)
-4k recording in front facing camera (MX Player, and gallery shows it's 4k, but I can't test it if looks any better than 1080p)
-Panorama, Timelapse(?)
Things that are not working:
-HQ looks the same as normal mode (Still max ISO is 800)
-No 1080p60 option
-No HDR option
-Slow motion records only in 30fps
Install it as a normal apk. Tested on Oxygen OS Ob11

why would anyone install this? considering it has less features than the stock oneplus 3t camera app

Because it has a feature that I and some people really needed: OIS for 1080p,720p, not only for 4k and 1080p60, and it won't replace your stock camera app, so you can use the stock camera app if you want something else.

When installing this "port", it basically kills postprocessing on the stock camera app until you deinstall it and reboot your device.
See for yourself. Not only does it not improve the camera quality, it also deteriorates the stock camera quality.

[9.0+] Google Camera with working HDR+ Enhanced

Hello, i just want to say that the latest Google Camera 4.3 by Urnyx05 works amazing! It has much better results than stock camera. Pictures taken with Google Camera have much better dynamic range, more details & more natural color representation. Night photos have much more light, thanks to Night Sight mode & optical image stabilization. It has more noise which can't be easily seen until you zoom in. Sometimes white balance can be a bit off depending of the scene, but all in all, much better experience than stock camera. Selfie camera, pretty much the same experience as back camera, much better.
Video quality is not that different, maybe little better because you can set bitrate up to 100mbit vs (40mbit on stock camera) which works, i verified it in MX Player video info.
You need Android 9.0+ custom rom if you want to use Google Camera.
Everything works well. Only bug it has is front camera video & fast motion not working.
Settings: HDR+ Enhanced, Nexus 3 AWB on, 25 HDR Frames capture, 16:9, Full resolution capture. I disable face retouching for selfie camera.

Oh, you don't see anything on the screen when shooting, but take a photo, and you will see the end result.
