Miui rom camera vs AOSP rom camera

Is it safe to assume that the google camera on stock based roms is better than the miui 9 default camera?
Im saying this because I just got the Honor View 10 and will be doing some camera comparisons and dont really want to go back to miui rom.

Imo yes, Gcam is better. Especially front camera.

In my Mi6, the stock camera was better than Gcam

Which ROM?

miui9 with Camera2 enable way too much noise
Official Aicp 12.1, Google Camera can't focus, in the end i'm using bacon camera
Unofficial LOS 15.1 Too much noise again
The best picture i could get with my Mi6 was with the stock rom and default camera

I'm surprised.
Google camera on any ROM I've used has been consistently better than any other set up.
I don't even use HDR+ because of the autofocus issues.
Just normal photos.
Always better than stock camera and others even when using HDR+ with those.
Video is another area though. Only MIUI camera produces consistent video quality.
Gcam just lags and crashes.
Bacon camera was decent enough as an alternative for video.
Currently on AOSPA I have gcam for normal photos and MIUI camera for video and special photos

I was really eager to use Gcam, the phone i had before the Mi6 was a J5 Prime.. So no Gcam either. Everyone said it was an awesome camera, so i waited 72 hours, unlocked bootloader, twrp and then enable camera2.. I tried a few gcam mods and in my Mi6 none of them where superior to the default camera that came with miui9.

Gcam Miui vs AOSP

Hi, my Redmi Note 5 is arriving and I want to know if I install Ressurrection Remix OS the Gcam app will have the same image quality as if I install it on Miui?

In my opinion it's even better, since you can adjust a lot in the modified versions of the gcam (look out of Arnova and saneklic.)
You can bump up the image quality by quite a bit (also in low light conditions, images can get better). Additionally you have some nice mods (like photosphere, different modis of panorama) which the others don't have. In my opinion the mi camera performs as good or worse than the gcam.
The portrait effect with the blured background can be achieved perfectly by 1 lens again, so no need to use the mi camera for that effect (since lineage snap & gcam use 1 lense only). So there is no need to use miui camera for that one.
Don't forget to activate camera2api (persist.camera.HAL3.enabled=1) in the build.prop and you are good2go I hope it helped!
Edit: if you want to use the miui camera anyway, there is a thread where you can flash the .zip file and have it anyway!

I think he means that he would like to know if the gcam performs the same on Miui as on aosp Rom. In the end, is the gcam so good on Miui as the same gcam app on aosp?
Personally I think yes, because they both used camera2api, but I didn't test it.

Best Google Cam .apk for MIUI 10 Oreo?

All the 6.x GCam I find don't work, because they require Pie. Is anyone using a good GCam for Oreo?

OIS and EIS performance difference between these two Camera App version?

Yo, I recently purchased a Pixel 3a xl and was running the device on Android 10 (QQ3A.200805.001) but when using the camera app, video captures were getting pixelated and lags. I did a factory reset to the device but the problem persisted. I started to try different versions and I saw that the recording went smoothly in Android 9 (PQ3B.190801.002). Even though I tried modded apk versions of the same version camera app on Android 10, I saw that it did not give the same performance. What exactly is the difference between these two versions? Maybe OIS or EIS software? Also on 7.3 version video brightness is higher then 6.2 and when i move the device different angel its keep focusing.
Android 10 Camera App Version: 7.3-7.4
Android 9 Camera App Version: 6.2.018

Question Best compatible GCAM version (or another camera app)

I've used some version of GCAM for a while now i found worked with all three cameras decently enough but i got to it trough trial and error and now that i am flashing a newer ROM i would like to upgrade GCAM too anyways.
So what do you guys use and/or recommend?
It doesnt have to be GCAM specifically but its the only one i found to have enough features while remaining simple.
I would have loved to use Simple Camera or the GrapheneOS Camera but i paid for all three cameras imma use all three lol.
I think I could also configure any GCAM version to work with this phone but i am not sure its possible or how to.
Love yall
