I noticed when taking pictures of text particularly high DPI displays, the S20 Ultra camera has very poor uniformity across the image. Almost like a convergence issue without the chroma artifacts. Then I came to a realization: could it be an artifact from pixel binning? The calculations to make a full 108MP image a 12MP image. Check it out, first taken with the S20 Ultra:

Then iPhone 11 Pro Max:
Clearly this is not an artifact from a lens or wide aperture. This is also why so many areas of pictures are sharp and areas not so sharp. A test card would reveal this immediately.
And too, since this is part of processing, it *should* be correctable, at least to tolerable levels in software so an update should yield improvement.
Because, right now, it's quite bad.
Unfortunately, the autofocus issue is completely unrelated to this. Both pics were manually focused.

I understand that phone cameras have weak sensors but has anyone come up with a way to capture pictures in .RAW format?
That would be useless for a phone with poor ISO performance and low pixel density.
You might benefit from being able to change white balance but anything else it would do no good.
Also if it would be possible, the gallery would need to be able to read raw files. It would also have a hard time creating thumbnails and viewing would be slower.
If you need raw, stick with an advanced point and shoot or a DSLR camera.
The way things are going, I wouldn't be surprised if future phones (way way in teh future) had that feature.
Though it would be interesting, it really isn't all that practical. It's more of a "I happen to have it with me camera".
I think you need one of these:

There has been a lot of debate about why LG used the Snapdragon 801 instead of the 805 and initial test prove only a marginal difference for power users, especially the SOC. The GPU on the other hand is more futureproof.
What I want to know is why LG went with last years Sony IMX135 camera sensor instead of the new IMX214 that the OPPO Find 7 and Oneplus One use? Sure we have OIS and laser focus but the improvements the 214 bring are significant enough that average people will notice. Like Reatime HDR in video and less colour crosstalk and the fact that it is slimmer. How much more expensive would it have been to put them in considering that the OF7 and OPO are older devices?
Here is an article about the Mi4 and its sensor http://www.doi-toshin.com/xiaomi-mi4-camera-details-new-sony-sensor-imx214-just-stunning/

then how Lg G3 able to make 4K video now?
in taht table it needs imx214 for that.
Using Wide Aperature on the Honor 6XTaking wide aperture photos can produce images with a shallow depth of field. Recommended for taking photos of people or objects within 2 meters. To use the wide aperture mode on the Honor 6X, select the shutter icon at the top of your screen in your camera app.

You can adjust the size of your aperture from F 16 to F 0.95 by sliding the scale up or down. Refocus by taping different spots on your screen. Aperture size and focus can also be changed after your photo is taken.
Apply filters while adjusting your image.
The wide aperture mode is very simple to use after you get the hang of it. If you have used other phones with dual camera setups then you're probably familiar with how it works. The feature seems to be on part with other phones that have the same ability.
Hi folks,
on my OP9 Pro LinageOS is running and I use the GCam to take fotos. I'm happy with the quality - except for one thing: all camera lenses of the OP9 pro have problems to focus on the object I want to adjust sharply. I must click several times on the object, somtimes more than 4 times to shoot a sharp photo of the object. If I don't the object is blurry. E.G. on the attached photo I clicked 2 times on the cup in order the set the focus on it - but in spite of this the cup is still very blurry. On my former device, a Huawei p20 pro, the focus worked much more better ./. Any idea how I can improve / fix the focus issue ?

If I may suggest, you would be better off reporting it on Gcam/LOS thread, Thanks
Hello,
last week I have bought a brand new Huawei watch GT 2e.
From the very first moment a was a bit disappointed by the display quality - everything seems to be a bit blurry with soft red/blue edges and a reddish tint. Definitely not the razor sharp quality as mentioned in almost all reviews.
Today, I went to the local shop, where the very same GT 2e watch is on exhibition an I was immediately shocked by difference of the display. The same model, but manufactured a few months ago. This is what I call a great display.
I have made a macro shot of both displays. On the left is the older one with sharp full RGB matrix, on the right my watch with annoying blurry pentile subpixel array.
Sorry Huawei, this cost cutting really went wrong.
