Hey there,
I've been using my redmi note 5 pro for more than a week now, and straight up the camera packed on this thing is really good. But for a tech YouTube like me, who compares this phones with the top flagship devices, the results are inconsistent.
First off I compared it with iPhone X, and was shocked with the results. The redmi note 5 pro performed so much better than the iPhone X. Now some people may say that comparing the two is not fair as there is a humongous price difference between the two. But xiaomi itself said that the phone was a natural competitor with phones like iPhone X and Google Pixel 2.
SO I HAD TO COMPARE IT WITH GOOGLE PIXEL 2 XL. But the results weren't so good. When compared to pixel's images, note 5 pro's images look washed out and soft. But it didn't lack completely back, as note 5 packing a bigger aperture did a little better than pixel 2 in low light situations, but again the results were pretty inconsistent. So at the end of the day no one can match Google's amazing algorithms of HDR+.
But I think if someone can port the Google camera in note 5 pro it will perform so much better as these two device pack almost identical camera hardware.
I'm not sure if camera 2 api is fully unlocked in this phone, can somebody please tell me how to do it. Do I just need to download the Google camera apk from the internet? I'm really curious to see how the redmi note 5 pro will perform with Google camera's algorithms.
Peace
You need to unlock your bootloader first and than flash twrp and magisk and than you can enable camera api 2 by editing Build.prop

Pixel has a bigger aperture, also with a larger pixel size than the note 5 pro... low light won't be better on the note 5 pro.
I rooted, enabled camera 2 api, installed google camera....but Google camera images had a lot of noise compared to stock camera(you can see noise on zooming into the pic)

But am asking whether it works in note 5 pro?
Google cam cant make RN5Pro images better. No google phone has dual cameras so Gcam will always use single lens to capture images

Our phone is also using single lens to capture images except portrait
120 fps video recording
the soc snapdragon 636 can have the feature of 1080p recording at a frame rate of 120fps, so can we able to record this on redmi note 5 pro using any third party app by rooting?

yeah on redmi note 3
perhaps it is necessary to install modified driver for the camera. (if this exists).
in youtube i saw a video that teached where find and install the driver, then install google camera on a note 4.
the difference in the photo (with original driver and with modified driver + google camera) was remarkable.

The second camera in rn5p is a depth sensor! So the primary lens does all the work and gcam will only use the primary lens ! So why wont it make the images better.
Though for A1 both lens Gcam has been ported at it works great!!!

Dude, I'm too eager to see this. I have a Redmi 4 Prime and the Cameracam API enabled with Gcam have worked miracles on my photos. I'm looking forward to buying RN5P, but I'd like to see your photos better.

How to install google camera in redmi note 5
Tell me sir....plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz plz
I have been wait for 2 more weeks to unlock my phone.
Hope to see the update which allow Google cam work on 5pro at that time. :3
I know that the SD855 is capable of doing EIS for 4k 60fps as I've noticed that other ones with the same chip are starting to come out with updates to enable this feature. I know that all SD855 phones already can do EIS for 4k 30fps but not 60fps (the option greys out or disappears). for example, the zenfone 6 recently had an update to enable this. i'm not sure which other phone can do this right now.
I'm not sure why there isn't more details when it comes to EIS as it is a very very attractive feature, as it almost replaces the need to have a gimbal. i 99% sure the G8 since the G7 also has been using gyro-based EIS meaning the stabilization algorithm is optimized by the data from the gyro. i hope that one day they also add OIS to the ultrawide cam as EIS crops in alot.
thanks,
Hi,
Are you talking about the SteadyCam option presence on LG G8/S/X devices?
As I heard of, for the moment only main lens and FHD 16:9 maximum but it may arrive soon. I'll ask my colleagues next week.
Weird question to place here ... but @steadfasterX has a OnePlus 6T ...
I am buying a OnePlus 6T or 7 Pro. It is not about the price tag, it is about the camera.
You all know the qualities of our G4's camera. It is the reason I found interest in photography.
Its main feature is the simpleness! Take the LG stock camera app. Or ProShot (*yuks*). It makes photos, it does not have filters and AI guessing what you are shooting, or software-augmented portrait modes with fake bokeh.
Whatever comes out as a JPG is as beautiful as the human eye can see. Sometimes I have to edit the DNGs for minor details, for zoom+focus-aid etc.
The controls are simple and manual mode is supported in any app with Camera2 API.
From that point: shooting with the LG G4 indeed is a bit like shooting with a DSLR/DSLM.
But will I get the best manual mode/no filter/AI depending results with more with the OnePlus 6T or more with the OnePlus 7 Pro?

Pro photographer reviews the OnePlus 9 Pro camera setup and he's very impressed, possibly some tips users can pick up here (As well as so-called "reviewers" )
(Not my video, not self-promotion)
Hello,
yesterday I had the time to make a comparison of my OnePlus 9 Pro with OxygenOS 12.1 and a few of other devices on my hands:
Samsung S22 Ultra
Huawei P50 Pro
VIVO X70 Pro+
I feel the stock camera isn't at the level of the GCAM for the OP but it can deliver very eye candy images (not real but... Good for the eyes)
You can find the video here
and here the pictures in hires.
Did you compare GCAM in there somewhere?
Confused about the reference.
