GCam for S20 FE
Hi, I am going to buy S20 FE Exynos version (only Exynos version is available in India). Though I know the Samsung's stock camera works best, I absolutely in love with GCAM. If someone knows where should we find the latest Gcam version for...

GCAM's astrophotogrqaphy mode could give you this amount of time for an open shutter. in order to manual set the time needed, you shoud find and use the 7.3 version (in later versions i haven't fount the way to adjust the shutter time).
Still, if your goal is thew light trail, you shoud test the astrophotography mode of GCam, before the event you want to shoot, (e.g. with stars)

Is it possible to take longer than 10 second exposure pictures on the Note 7 camera?
I think you can. but the thing is it is too bright and you can't set ISO the lowest.
I tried it day time. May be it works on night time.
Worth trying.
With the stock camera app in pro mode you can select 10 seconds as a max. In Auto mode even in complete darkness it doesn't set the shutter speed any longer than half a second.
Since you can control the shutter speed with this phone you might be able to find an aftermarket camera app with manual controls that might let you take exposures longer than 10 seconds. Without some sort of tripod and at night it's pointless to use a shutter speed that slow.

Planning to use it with a tripod to see how far I can push the night photography capabilities of the camera. Will look for a third party app.

This app allows you to select much longer exposure times. Not all the reviews are that great though.

hi, i do not know if you came to this dilemma before but i have Oneplus 3 and a friend offered to swap phones... i was looking for a better camera... Oneplus 3 has a "thing" when shooting at moving objects and if you try to take a photo of your baby its impossible... almost every picture is blury.... how is the HTC 10 camera when you shoot moving objects? i am looking forward for your replies!!! thanks!!
every camera will blury when you take a moving objects unless you speed up the shutter speed, so it just depends on if you know how to use the camera with shutter priority/full manual.

Correct.
Try to shop Manual mode on Oneplus3, set shutter speed minimum 1/60 minimum (if indoor), depends the baby moving,
try to shot outdoor, you can set 1/500+, shot flash to baby eyes it NOT allowed (i forgot 3/5 years old is allowed, just search on google)
try to learn about Exposure in photography (iso, aperture, shutter speed) this will useful in life of photography.
i have oneplus3 for testing, is a great device. so swap to HTC10 will not resolve this issue, if you still using Auto. :fingers-crossed:
thank you very much guys!! it might be a software issue of the app... when in auto mode it selects wrong iso/exposure??? before OP3 i had a galaxy S6 and i used it always in auto mode with fine results... i will definetely try your advise!!
That's because Samsung camera app will detect the scene, if it found something moving fast then it will switch to "sport" mode(something like that, forget the actual name). For HTC 10 I dunno will it have similar function in auto mode, but the 10 official camera app really lack of function
Hi
Does anyone know if there is a way to save images as RAW in the Moto Z Play?
Also, the manual (pro) mode allows you to change the exposure duration but this seems to be maxed to 1/6 - any way to get to longer exposure times?
Thank you.
No idea about the RAW support but if you want to take long exposure shots there are a few camera apps on the Play Store which should do the trick (Camera FV-5 Lite for example) but I never tried any so you may have to try a few in order to find something you're happy with.

Cheers! I've got Camera FV-5 installed and it does present longer exposure times, but I cant tell the difference between them and the stock camera photos. For example, photos taken in stock camera at 1/6 look the same as FV5 at 5 second exp. I don't have my phone to hand but will post some examples later.

I'm not surprised if there's no differences between the 2 but I thought you could make 30 seconds exposure shots with Camera FV-5 (which would surely make a difference with the stock camera)
About RAW support, from what I've read the Z Play doesn't support it unfortunately. You'd need the TrueZoom mod to get RAW support, which is quite an expensive buy.

Edit: Tried to save RAW with Snap but although it gives me the option I was not able to find a RAW image on my card...
I use the Snap Camera app from Playstore. It's extremely versatile and gives you tons of options and it has RAW support with our Z Play.
It needs some time to try out all options and find out the best for the phone and it also costs a few bucks (although there is a free version too). But I think it's worth it. For example it's also the only app I've found which let's you tourn of the denoise filter which is sometimes very helpfull when making pictures of landscapes which lots of details.
The interface is a little annoying at first but you can turn off everything and build your own interface with the free customizable shortcut buttons (settings - advanced - on screen settings).
It has also a good support on XDA.
Thanks for this. It's odd, camera fv 5 says the phone does not support RAW. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What really bugs me though is the exposure times. I'll give it a try to see what sort of image I get with a 30 sec exposure now.

IMG image - Stock camera with everything auto and exposure at 1/6s. Looks like garbage.
DSC image - Camera FV 5, everything auto and exposure at 20s. Looks like dark garbage.
If im not mistaken, Camera2API supports raw format. Whenever Lenovo finally enables it (Nougat?) we should be able to export to raw format.

I found that long exposure shots have a very limited use :-\
True it's not something you'd use everyday, but it would've been good to have this work as it should. The only other thing I can think of is that they've nerfed it on purpose so the camera mod sells.

Raw does work if you enable camera 2 api or modify hal lib it works even in camera 1 mode

On my samsung i had some great manual mods in my camera app.
- Used to take some really awesome long exposure fotos - camera usually open for 2 - 5 sec. Sincs google don't want to give us some manuel controls, does any know an great app where I am able to change shutter speed?
I've heard that the HDR+ only works with the stock camera app`? I will be fine tho, as I can edit it later in Lightroom/Photoshop..
Thanks
You can't go past 1 sec exposure on the pixel. No app can change that. Sorry man.

I use the app Proshot for manual controls, it supports long exposure upto 4 seconds on Pixel 2. So I guess most of the camera apps supporting manual controls can support long exposure upto 4 seconds.

IT looks so great!! Its not possible with pixel 2?
So, any idea how you engage the shutter to take a long exposure image without touching the camera - which will cause camera shake? The voice command "hey google, take a picture" only seems to work from standby mode (when you're not using the phone - but the power is on).

Guy's as the new features called night Scape camera based feature is software based
Is it possible port it for our op5t ??
it is software baded and It should be portable
just give it time
I think it won't, 6 and 6T have OIS while we don't, the phone must be still for a couple of seconds, which is impossible for a non-OIS phone.
check latest Arnova Gcam
"Still no Night Sight for Op6 and Android 8.1, On Op5t the night mode works, but the viewfinder is black."
You can sort of get a nightscape mode working if you go to pro mode on Camera, and change the shutter speed to 3s (or more). But the higher you choose, the longer you have to be absolutely still.
Yes night scape work but when you switched the viewfinder turn black.
but result is okay for me.
and when you take normal photo there is black spot in the middle of all photo
you should go to this thread
