I didn't, I stated the RAW was 'processed' if you read my above post, whether that processing is done on a PC, Mac or other platform, doesn't really matter. There's no reason why the processing can't also be done on the phone itself with the right application, I'd imagine once the L camera API's are rolled out, there will be a procession of apps that allow for a great amount of processing, maybe even on an ad-hoc basis.

The key exciting point here of course, is not processing, but that software improvements are allowing a FAR larger amount of sensor information to be saved. What people do with it, it's up to them, something that was impossible before. It's a big leap forward, and one I'm very much looking forward to. Any decent photographer will tell you that working with RAW files is much preferable to JPGs. If you search around, there are examples of non-processed DNGs from these phones which already look far less grainy than JPGs, before any sort of PP is applied.
[Nexus 6  General] dtroup64:
I do most of the event photography for a major regional museum. No matter the instrument (camera or now possibly camera phone), these files are transferred to my computer for processing before we release them via social media, or in the best cases, our quarterly magazine. With the advent of RAW files on a phone, I would certainly consider using a camera phone for outdoor events. Very exciting indeed!

"PHOTOS THAT STAND OUT

The camera on the Nexus 6 gave us a pleasant surprise. On paper, it sounds good, but not revolutionary. In reality, though, it holds its own against the best camera phones out there. From the colours to the sharpness, everything in our photos looks spot on."
[Nexus 6  General] dtroup64:
How have their reviews stacked up in the past? I've never been a "review guy", so I'm not familiar with the top review sites for phones.
[Nexus 6  General] Master Ramy:
Gonna dig into that review but I have the same question, are they generally pretty accurate reviews?
[Nexus 6  General] dazed1:
Ok, since no one answer in the other thread, ill try it here.

So if Motorola, Google etc are second tier when it comes to software processing - imaging, and general design of the camera does this means, they ruin the camera (firmware? the way its working? if that makes any sense) so you can't make it perfect even if you get the software perfect afterwards? (mods and different apks for the phone)

In short, same sensor, same EVERYTHING, but one phone Samsung, one Motorola. If some guy theoretically makes perfect software for both phones, will they take exactly same quality picture if both are taken in ideal way? what i'm ultimately asking is, will mods get the best out of Nexus 6 camera? (assuming they are great mods/apks)
[Nexus 6  General] trunks527:
Software does play a big part. If it's same everything and same software I don't see why the experience would be different.
[Nexus 6  General] Nitemare3219:
I don't even consider that a review. They're just trying to get as much attention as they can since they have a pre-production model on hand... waste of my time reading that "review" with nothing to back it up.

[Nexus 6  General] cb474:
Samsung has consistently done a much better job on the post-processing side than other companies. Nokia has usually been the best of all companies. Everyone else has been kind of all over the place.

However, the Samsung does use better sensors than other people. The Galaxy S5 has a 1/2.5 sensor. That's much larger than the 1/3 sesnors in all other phones. Only the Sony Xperia Z2 and Z3 have equivalent (slightly larger) sensors, at 1/2.3. And the niche Nokia phones, the 808 and 1020 have huge far far superior sensors, 1/1.2 and 1/1.5 respectively.

So part of the reason that Samsung phones have consistently been at the head of the pack (except the best Nokia phones that are simply years ahead of everyone else), is because they do use better hardware.

The best comparison is probably between the Galaxy S5 and the Xeperia Z2 and Z3. By all rights the Z2 and Z3 have a better sensor. But those phones have consistently underperformed in camera reviews, producing photos no better than rivals with smaller 1/3 sensors. So that is a good example of how you can really screw it up on the software/post-processing side. I don't know what Sony's problem is, especially since they make the sensors that almost everyone else uses, including the sensor in the Galaxy S5.

That said, usually mods and roms and things like that don't correct problems with post-processing on phones. That really has to come from an update from the manufacturer. When there are obvious color problems, these updates often do come. But I wouldn't hold my breath for a mediocre camera to get greating improved by roms and mods.

Of course, you can do your own color correction and editing of photos after the fact and compensate for a lot of post-processing issues. But most people will probably find that to be a pain. Any serious photographer would be doing that anyway, with any phone camera or real camera. It just depends on your level of interest.
[Nexus 6  General] 0.0:
I am sure with Lollipop it'll get better for all companies. If they make use of the APIs, the camera app can start converting RAW to JPEG instead of the current JPEG to JPEG. JPEG to JPEG really does reduce quality. The good companies will get better, and the poor companies will be, hopefully, good
[Nexus 6  General] cb474:
Yes, it's nice that they're trying to do a better job at this. But I still think the ultimate issue is the sensor. They're doing everything they can to get the most out of 1/3 sensors as possible. That's great. But to me it's still fiddling around the edges. It's more like correcting past failings that they should have gotten right, than really moving forward in camera technology.
[Nexus 6  General] 0.0:
I believe the problem is that there really isn't enough competitors to move the camera tech forward. With more good competitors, more innovation. But we must all remember, it is a phone. Imo, I believe phones will never take the same quality photos like an actual camera. Let's say a phone's camera does take as good photos as today's cameras, the today's cameras may actually be so much better in the future. Phones will always be playing catch up, but never catching up because of limitations in a phone vs an actual camera
[Nexus 6  General] bozint:
Very true. Followed the link and was looking for a review. What a crap of page that was.
[Nexus 6  General] dtroup64:
I wouldn't be so hard on the reviewers right now. Seems each reviewer was allowed a full 15 minutes with the phone (I say "seems" from the other three reviews I've seen so far) Not much you can do in 15 minutes. I'm guessing we'll get far more in-depth looks at this thing on the 29th.
[Nexus 6  General] bozint:
You are right that they probably had been given only a small amount of time, but all of the videos were called hands on, and not a review.

I guess we are all anxiously waiting for a review, hence the criticism towards the aforementioned "Nexus 6 Review" web page.

[Nexus 6  General] dazed1:
I agree so much, phones which record in mono, are terrible to me, i'm an audiophile, and i cant stand bad sound, in ANY WAY. I know its just smartphone and all, but hearing how muffled phone which cost 800$ (Iphone 6) sound during video recordings, makes me puke.....

BTW your post are very good, keep it up bro :good:
[Nexus 6  General] cb474:
Yeah, I know I brought up audio quality in terms of noise cancellation for calls. But one feature people don't think about a lot with cameras is the microphones used for capturing audio on video recordings. Microphones and audio capture is incredibly complicated and underappreciated.

One great technology in this area is Nokia's HAAC (high amplitude audio capture) microphones. Most mics either are able to caputre low volume noises well, but distort at high volumes. Or capture high volumes well, but are not sensitive enough for low volumes. Nokia solved this problem with HAAC, which was introduced in the Nokia 808 (best camera ever put in a phone by an order of magnitude over even today's best) and then upgraded to stereo recording HAAC mics in the Nokia 1020 (second only to the 808 as a camera). Other Nokia Lumia phones may have these mics too, I'm not sure. As far as I know, no other manufacturer has a technology like this.

HTC in the original One (M7) notoriously promoted having this technology, calling it "dual membrane" microphone technology. But it turned out they were getting the microphones from a company that Nokia had contracted to manufacturer their microphone technology and HTC had no license to use it. So they had to stop using the microphones, leaving only those lucky few who got some of the first manufactured batch of HTC Ones to have it.

Anyway, it's supposed to be great for recording in loud places, like concerts. But as usual is highly overlooked, with only Nokia bothering to innovate with audio recording. I'd argue this microphone technology is even more valuable than stereo recording. Stereo is nice. But first simply not having distortions and having clear audio is more important.

[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nyder:
Probably because your OP is confusing.

Okay, you want to spoof Hulu, that is what I am gathering from your post. I mean, who doesn't want to spoof Hulu so we can get some free entertainment?

Okay, the Hulu app, even though people seem to claim you can get free stuff on it, doesn't allow free stuff on it. So that leaves web browsers.

So far, my best luck has been Dolphin since you can change it to tell websites you are on a Desktop. Which is basically loads up, but I haven't been able to get it beyond that.

What we need is a custom browser for the AFTV that spoofs being a desktop (don't need to spoof the phone/tablet ****), that then layouts the page so it's useful for AFTV users. And that can, of course, actually play the shows, which I assume are flash crap, but I could be wrong.
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stanleyopar2000:
Hulu allowed android users to stream free content that they can get on desktop free on mobile. It's only android. Not iPhone :P Every other platform (even the Desktop WIndows 8.1 app) requires a paid plus account. I was watching a full anime series (BECK) on the official hulu app on my Note 3 with a free account via chromecast screen mirroring. Using the Hulu Plus app on my smartphone. FREE. It's possible. I can jump on my Nexus 7 and go to the hulu app with a free account and pop on attack on titan without any issues (well with ads of course)

http://blog.hulu.com/2014/07/30/sample-free-content-on-hulu-for-android-2/

It says so here.

My problem is...is that when android hulu app starts up. It looks at the build.prop to see what device and model it is...and if it doesn't match the criteria of an android smartphone or tablet, it will be denied the free login.

currently my XBMC'd Fire TV has a "bueller" code name and a AFTV in the model area. Which is telling Hulu it's not an official android phone or tablet. I already used market helper to get full range of play store apps but that's just for the play store. My theory is that, if I change the build prop model and build names to my nexus 7 (2012) would it trick hulu into thinking the AFTV was a Nexus 7? thus allowing free content "sampling?"

I've changed the build.prop on my other devices for various things and reasons in the past and I can do it now. But is it safe to do on a AFTV??
