Hello, I've been using this phone and its really good, but the software sucks, the built-in câmera app can only take photos with the ultra-wide camera and macro camera, I can only record with the normal main camera, I've been looking for Gcam for this phone but I couldnt find anything, the best thing I could find that works on this phone was Camera GO (CameraGo_2.5_Greatness_210725_2109_cameralite), but it only let me chose between normal and macro camera, and the camera that I want to record with is the Ultra wide one, anyone have any solution for that? It doesn`t need to be Gcam, but anything that let me chose the ultra-wide camera for recording, thanks
This camera you listed above is miles ahead of the stock camera app.
Thanks for posting this

Hey all; I have found the camera gets confused with focusing in some instances (IE; bug on glass pane) where "Close up" and "Auto" won't focus on the object at any distance at all.
Is there some app that can control camera focus normally?
Thanks!
I'd like to know something for this as well. Macro shots are terrible on this camera.
Just so everyone knows, we're not looking for something with a digital zoom(Since that takes away a lot of quality).
I've tried the stock camera, camera zoom fx, and camera FV-5(This one runs terribly for some reason). FV-5 has a manual focus mode, but it doesn't work very well and is kind of annoying to me.
I think the best chance you really have for getting any decent macroshots is to use a reverse lens or a proper macro lens.
Which Camera app do you use and why?
I've been switching between ABC and Open Camera.
Those both have DRO built in.
ABC night mode works well sometimes.
I like Open Camera HDR and the ability to lower ISO, though it doesnt support 23MP
I haven't had a chance to try the snap camera much.
I'm using CameraNextMod.
Stock - third party apps have worse shutter lag because camera will refocus before capture.
stock and google one

Never heard of that one, I'll have to look for the proj thread
XNext Camera, a modified Stock Camera

I like keeping with the stock camera because i can use the dedicated camera button, and it uses the full 22.3 mp. With the mod, you could do some manual shooting (minus RAW capture)
You should be able to use the camera button with any camera.
I'd like to use the sony stock, but I'm on Lineage now so I didnt think it would work.

I just tried it with google camera, which is my only other camera app and i just knew now that it works. But the pre-focus doesnt.
Can Lineage capture RAW photos?
Stock because most apps dosnt support the max 23MP only 8MPx beside Camera FV-5
but! Camera FV-5 crash alot, the good thingg in Camera FV-5 you can use while the phone is hot and blow 4% batt, and abit more "control"
Only reason why I use Snap Camera is because I'm using LineageOS
Otherwise, I'd probably stick with default Sony camera
Hi,
is there an app, where I can record with both cameras at the same time? Full screen with the front camera and a small picture inside that full screen image with the selfie cam.
I found an app, which can do that, but both pictures have the same size, which is not that really useful.
This one: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cornopolitan.dualvideo
If this app can do full screen the front cam and small selfie cam, that would be perfect, but this setting is not available.
Or maybe there is an other app, doing this dual cam with YouTube live?
Thanks
Alex
Edit: Well, I figure out, the phone can do that almost by default.
Check out this video, how to activate it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyvGO7DsXxo
Is there any mod to enable it force it. Or does xiaomi have any plans bringing it via updates?
you can use open camera to get 4k in front camera , always you can active EIS 4k in back camera

Eis is not working at the back whether you switch it on or not @4k

you can compare open camera when you switch on/off EIS in 4K , i think EIS in 4K work but not too smooth. you can handle your phone to stabilitation with EIS ON in 4K to take a video. goodluck ^_^
4K in front camera with OPEN CAMERA ,its perfect you must set fps 25/30, and framerate :200 mb, EIS off, and don't shot in lowlight thats very noisy
if you have root and use camera API ,you got 4K with EIS ,it look better than before. but crash to front camera..
im sorry for my english
I've got another question. Is there a way to make gcam able to record 4k video?
gcam only focus on photos , not video .. but you can get 4k by gcam oldes apk its have default setting and you can adjust by yourself
Has anyone tried recording 4K at 60fps using Open Camera?
I'm thinking of buying this phone but there are others around the same price that support that.
I have an Xperia XA2 Ultra. Open Camera allows the main selfie camera to record video in 4K 30fps when by default
it can only record 1080p
Could anyone try the app and let me know?
I would really appreciate it
"Serious Camera Error" when 4k 60fps is set.

I just installed open camera, though I dont find the HDR option in video settings, but setting to 4k/60 with max buffer of 200 seems to record without a problem. I tried front facing camera, same goes...
I dont see an issue but again, I dont see HDR option in it, also the selfie camera on photo mode, max buffer and max quality seems only as good as normal camera app, the default camera app maybe even a little sharper but barely noticeable but if you really care for 60fps both back and front worked in [email protected] which is weird lol I never expected that, I need to go further testing to see how good the open camera is, compare 60fps in 4k to 60fps 30 and compare quality as well to get the full idea, but I did play around with photos a little bit, and to be honest open camera seemed to have much more artificial sharpness, the photo zoomed out looks sharp even sharper than default camera, but put on a big screen or zoomed in, the default camera has much more respectable sharpness that has way less noise and grain which makes the photo more realistic and more natural overall thats why I feel like the open camera is just a gimmick, all it can provide is 60fps in 4k in both cameras, but again I have to check the quality to see if its even worth it because even with quick tweaking in open camera, I still cant get the best combination of brightness sharpness and color accuracy, yet the default camera app gives a splendid true mix of those, maybe going deeper in manual settings adjusting all these aspects manually could lead to good quality outcomes, but to be honest, no one will ever want to adjust every time they wanna take a pic/video so yah
Thanks a lot Man
I get a lot of noise when recording 4K with the selfie camera, maybe because it wasn't meant to do that or it is just Open Camera.
Thanks again
