1) No

2) Yes

1) The max bitrate is limited by your rom, not XCam. You will need to edit your /system/etc/media_profiles.xml file if you want to go higher.

2) That's a limitation imposed by Google starting with KK. Please read the OP.

3) Hardware limitation

It's limited as that resolution is intended for mms (file size constraint).

Please read the FAQ.

JPG vs RAW/DNG

First off, an obvious nod to the awesome work being put behind the LG XCAM. Having been into the DSLR scene for quite some time, I am very impressed by the capabilities of XCAM. So much, in fact, that I had to create an account on here to show everyone what the capabilities of the LG G3's RAW processing power can show.

I have seen people (myself included) complaining about the DNG files not showing up after taking them. It seems there are very limited but growing resources on how to get these pictures to come up on your computer when editing in Lightroom, PS, etc. In my personal experience I have had to reset my phone after taking RAW pictures in order to "refresh" the DNG folder on your phone, otherwise only the old ones (the last RAW pics you took) will only be present. I'm not sure if this is an isolated issue with just me or a few others. Kinda confusing I know. So this is my so-far-as-of-now-generic approach:

1) Take your RAW photos with XCAM

2) Power off/on to reset your phone

3) Connect to computer and copy files over from the DNG Folder located in DCIM/CAMERA/

4) Prepare to be amazed

I have included the JPG vs RAW/DNG pictures as sort of a demo. The 1st 2 are from the JPEG Engine. The 2nd 2 are from the RAW Engine. All are uploaded as JPG but you can tell right away which ones have been unleashed. All are untouched from Auto Mode in the app. The dynamic range and detail of the LG G3 is insane for a phone sensor.

Thanks again for the wonderful app!

Due to my low post count I'm hoping this will be added to http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/development/app-xcam-lg-v5-1-0-t2873604

First of all thanks for the amazing app. And the extra setting app

I have a very important feature request if you can implement. This option is from the Oneplus one which toggles full brightness when using the camera automatically and toggles it back to normal user setting when camera is exited.

It's a very nice feature because the g3 camera has a stupid feature which keeps the ambient light sensor on while using the camera and if you hold the phone horizontally the screen becomes too dark and you can barely see the camera.

It would be awesome if you can add it to your LG xcam setting.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juanmaasecas:
Hello.

I own a G3 since a few days ago (I bought it mainly because of screen resolution for VR) and I'm now experimenting with this app (I bought the paid version). It's wonderfull to be able to shoot in raw (I love photography and I missed it with my preview phones).

What I can't understand is why with my old Z2 (without OIS) the shutter speed went down up to 1 second (using scene modes), and sadly with this G3 (with OIS) there seems to be no way of getting it under 1/7s (in night mode). Is there any way to achieve slower shutter speeds? I'd love to! I remember a couple of years ago I had a Lumia 920 (with OIS) and I could shoot at 1/2s handheld and no blur at all. A slower shutter speed means also a lower ISO (less noise/better detail, you know...).

Thank you for your work!

Though I won't say "never", I just have way too much on my plate currently. What I work on is driven by what I use, and there is no compelling reason for me to switch to AOSP/CM on my G2. I came from a Nexus so I have no aversion to it...I even prefer it aesthetically, but function always wins over form for me and in that regard I get much more from a stock-base (albeit heavily modified). It has always been back there as something I have considered, however. It's just a matter of time/priorities.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spz0:
Thanks for the response m8. Completely understand.

Only reason I switched to aosp from my stock modded lp build is because it's just so much faster with multi tasking than stock.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kulprits:
Had a few questions if anyone could help out. Glad its going into a Q&A thread since I don't have many posts. (Have the settings app and am in the beta group)

Firstly, is there a problem with keeping burst as my normal mode. Is there a reason the burst function and normal aren't tied together like in the stock app? Its great not to have to think about changing to it.

The second bit is purely a use of the LG G3 question. I've noticed that the time between pressing the shutter button and the image being captured is longer than i would like. Most of the time the kids or dog have moved by then and aren't even in the picture (or they've started moving and if the shutter is too slow i get a blurry mess).

Should i be waiting for the blue squares to appear on the screen before pressing the shutter (i assume when and where these appear is where it has chosen to focus, which i can change by touching the screen?)

Have upgraded from a Nexus 4, with the main goal of getting a better camera as it took awful shots of our new puppy. Just looking to maximise my knowledge so i can take the best pictures possible. I realise that moving objects are always going to be difficult, especially with the fastest shutter speed being limited by the widest aperature available being 2.4.

Thanks for any help or tips anyone can provide.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdabbeb:
Your English is just fine :) The 60fps mode has the ability to go that high, but only if the lighting supports it. In darker environments, it will go down to 30fps. This is entirely up to the the driver.

1) Given that I use Normal mode to enable many manual adjustments (missing from the stock G3 app) that aren't supported by burst mode this would be impossible.

2) If it's taking a moment to process the photo after you hit the shutter, that means the camera/driver has automatically dropped into one of the modes which require post-processing (night or hdr). If you have the settings app you can bypass this feature of the driver. There are also options to bump up the minimum shutter speed (can't go faster than 1/30s, however).

3) Yes, that means it's focused.

You're new to XDA, so I'm going to cut you a little slack with what is (on its face) a rude and demanding post and give you a little advice.

1) To start with, you're posting in the wrong place. You're talking about what was (at the time) a beta app, which you only got by signing up in the beta community. That's where this should've gone, because that's where I'm looking for beta feedback.

2) This is a community, and everyone helps out where/when they can. You aren't owed a response within a certain number of hours, days, or even at all. And before you say it...no, the fact that you donated and supported development doesn't entitle you to special treatment or to act in this way. I personally try to answer as many questions as I can, but I get dozens every day via multiple mediums. Some of them may not get answered immediately or at all. Ask yourself how much you have given to the community in work or help.

3) Throwing a public fit in a post and then sending someone a rude PM demanding that they read your post isn't going to engender any feelings of sympathy or a desire to help you out. For most people, it will do the opposite, in fact.

As for your actual questions, autoHDR does, in fact, work just fine on the G3 and was tested/confirmed. If you're expecting to see an icon pop up like the stock G3 camera, it won't. If you understand what HDR is doing you can point your camera at a bright light in an otherwise dark room and you'll see the result. For the zoom, make sure that you don't have noise reduction off, as this bypasses much of LG's post processing and zoom won't work when in a mode (or shotmode that automatically goes into a state) where multiple exposures are combined...night/hdr/etc

SD Card Problem on V20P Stock

After moving up to V20P stock on my G3 I find that I can't save my shots to my SD card. Internal storage works fine, but I don't want to consume that space when I've got a 64 GB card.

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdabbeb:
The only reason it won't be able to save to sdcard is if the platform.xml hasn't been corrected or there is a permissions issue on your sdcard (either file-level or SEAndrdoid). Lollipop has led to an increase in the number of problems due to the latter, so I'd suggest researching those issues (restorecon, etc).

I don't know if you're the same person from the Beta Community that asked, but if not...turning off noise reduction effectively bypasses all of LG's post-proc. You'll basically only have lens correction and wb applied.

LG removed support for manual focus on their G3 LP fw. All the app can do is ask for it.
