Advantages and disadvantages:
  • HDR +, which means high quality photos in any light
  • Night Sight - great night photos
  • Adequate noise level, and in some mods - its full setup
  • Shooting in RAW + JPEG
  • No manual mode (in some modes there are focus sliders and auto exposure correction)
  • The second camera does not work (so far), and, therefore, the zoom is only electronic
  • The sound of the video is far from beautiful
  • With certain settings, the photo is taken long enough - a feature of HDR +

Rep: (479)
* MrSever from your example with Gcam decided to make a small instruction on correcting white balance through Photo editor (if required, then increase the brightness without deteriorating the contrast and overexposure). Compressing JPG 100 makes sense only if you once again process and re-save somewhere to minimize quality loss with an extra JPG compression. 95 in the photo does not differ from 100, but the file size is 2 times smaller.

Here you have another Gcam for the test, Pixel3 v1 from BSG and Arnova. On the second page is a comparison, and a couple of crocuses on the first. Probably you need to change the version from the header to this one, better details and there is no sharpening. I will edit later.

Fagoth111, share information which parameters did you change?

Paramter exposure correction is the very first item set to the min iso,
in advanced shdr + parameters are super high i. maximum.
quality jpg 100% the rest did not touch

True, after that, you can take night shots only from a stub, and day shots too. Daytime make a couple of seconds. night can and for a minute stretch.
I am ready to wait for the quality, especially stub is.

People and not who did not look for an application to record video? And the built-in recording is just disgusting, only the sound is good, but the picture of the torn exposition floats all the time. I'm tired.
I have already tried a lot of things and everywhere the picture is recorded raggedly, so also the sound ceases to be written normally, either mono and quiet, or stereo gurgling.

I am in a painful choice between Nokia 7 plus, samsung s7, honor v10 ... did anyone have any experience of comparing these cameras in person?

honor v10 ...
this one is better than the others



Rep: (0)
* Rafik gugarman The fact is that after reading the posts in this topic, you can make two opposite conclusions, on the one hand they write that the potential of the Nokia 7 plus is very good right should shoot as S8 On the other hand, the view that even Honor v10 can make better photos than Nokia ...

Honor v10 better photo making than Nokia ...
and what does it even mean? V10 as for me even a higher level device



Rep: (0)
Rafik Gugarman @ 04/27/18 12:00*
and what does it even mean?

I meant by the technical performance of the camera (below is a quote about it from the previous page), and not by the cost and number of parrots in the benchmarks
According to the stated characteristics of a decent camera. Aperture main camera flagship. Pixel size flagship. The parameter of the matrix diagonal is hidden from the user - 1 / 2.9 ”, 1 / 2.8”, 1 / 2.5 ”- it remains to guess what diagonal and how many 1.4 μm pixels were placed. The lower the index under the fraction, the better.

in modern cameras everything is decided by software. Look at xiaomi - the modules are good, but they take off badly.

The current nokia is also not far from xiaomi, xiaomi in the flagships have already learned how to do a camera (Mi Mix 2S, 97 Dxomark points), unlike nokia. And you just can’t do it, these are years of development, experience, Foxconn has no good cameras.

And just a zeiss nameplate to stick - well, so it will not be better to remove from this.

Yes, I also thought, but reasoned that in this situation, Nokia will draw out the use of gcam ....

Glweb @ 04/27/18, 11:50*
use gcam

Above laid out examples of photos from the drain and GCam.
Stoke shoots at the Google Nexus 5x level (at the maximum crocus, the Nexus has a slightly better definition / sharpness). The quality of GCam (from different authors) you can compare yourself.
If you need more photos (stock vs GCam), I can do: foto:

Photo examples

You can make the first conclusion: the stock camera pretty well draws and works with color neatly. Now, if you had posted these photos somewhere in the archive to see the details, then the difference would probably be clearer.



Rep: (3)
There was another question, the stock camera (application) wins the Google Camera only in the fact that it is possible to turn on the second camera with double zoom, can there be any minimum possibility to embed it in the Google Camera?



Rep: (22)
* MrSever
And what is the conclusion? Personally, I liked the stock most - the most vivid photos.
