What GCam are you using and what settings?

I installed this version of GCam on 9.5.10gm21aa but some photos come out with no saturation. What settings are required in GCam to get the best photos.

Uploaded images below. First stock second GCam.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] umx:
biggest thing about the stock cam allot of photos are soft.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] user822:
Wide-Angle, normal lens and tele-lens all have their purpose

I am generally quite happy with the performance on the Stock cam

[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] sarcasticSparrow:
The trend has been for manufacturers to provide increasingly better experience with regards to the camera. For most people, their smartphone is their primary (in many cases, only) camera. Thus this isn't something that can be brushed aside, in general (though it may not be important for you).

I wonder if some of the issues are due to the lenses.

I'd also like to know what kind of margin 1+ is working with.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] twiice:
I was wondering the same thing after using several different camera apps and still getting that darker contrast, water colour washout with video in anything less than high spectrum brightly lit areas. I've noticed using open camera that infinity focus only works past around 90cm or so too. Hence I'm considering selling this phone and picking up the S9+ or similar which still uses the 12MP camera that gives great sparkling clear indoor video footage.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] PaulBlair23:
Agree with you.

I have a Pixel 2 XL and I'm considering this one. How was your experience with your 7 Pro?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] dalvarez0312:
as a pixel 3xl owner that recently bought the one plus 7 pro, im pretty dissappointed with the selfie camera. the colors are really bad when you're in yellow light. in white or blue light it seems to do better. i wish we could fix this somehow, i might just have to return it unfortunately.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Lawliet918:
doesn't the ported gcam fix this?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] niko1plus:
Yea the op7 pro cam is lackluster, my 3t with a gcam port took better photos. I say 5.5 out of 10, for the 7pro.

Pixel 4 XL and OnePlus 7 Pro night sight and night Scape respectively.

The conclusion is yours to make.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] TurboBot247:
Thanks for this post. The conclusion here is that the Pixel 4 XL beats out the OnePlus 7 Pro in night mode photography. The OnePlus doesn't at all do a poor job, actually. But the Pixel maintains more fine detail in each scene, and while there is more noise, there are less sharpening artifacts as well (notice the image of the reindeer). OnePlus's denoise algorithm in Nightscape is extremely powerful, to the point where lots of fine detail in the image is lost, then OnePlus attempts to compensate with adding sharpening. Can I oblige you to do post some regular low-light (no Night Sight/Nightscape) photos and maybe some photos of moving objects onto the Google photos doc? That would be fantastic if possible.

Also, what OxygenOS version is your 7 Pro running?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] baiosss:
Ill try to do some next days. Oxygen OS 10.0.2.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Who Am I?:
Constantly blown away by the nightscape camera. I caught the International Space Station flying by the other night. If you darken up the image you can see tons of other stars. This was just holding the camera up to the sky too

I wanted to get this phone, because I need it for my job, but I was not sure if it will be good for me.

At this moment of time, I'm working for a client, and they suggested for me to get this phone because of a good quality photos. Are they that good?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] TurboBot247:
To answer that question, I'm gonna ask you to take a look at my post on page 42 of this thread (it's lengthy, though :D ). The jist is that the 7 Pro has a solid camera overall, but this camera system doesn't have anything that makes it stand out compared to its competition, unlike the camera systems coming from Apple, Google, Huawei, and Samsung. If your main priority is camera quality from your phone, I'd point you towards an iPhone from this year because Apple's camera system's photo and video quality as a package is better than just about everything else on the market. But if you also want the most well rounded device (IMHO) to come out this year, the 7 Pro/7T Pro is great all round and the camera's far from the achilles heel it was when the 7 Pro first launched, and I'd say it's a camera system I can recommend (software updates have done this camera wonders), but not one I'd recommend for someone who could spend $1K on an iPhone 11 Pro.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Shipoftheline:
Or he could just check the examples on this thread since the camera firmware updates
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] TurboBot247:
True, but that's kind of time consuming. Judging by his post count, he probably came here seeking answers/help since places like Reddit tend to be full of senseless complaint and banter.

Are you on Oxygen OS 10.3..0? If so, have you done any testing?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] baiosss:
I made one public folder with low light photos between Oneplus 7 Pro and Pixel 4 XL without nightscape/nightsight modes in Onedrive.

Oneplus 7 Pro OOS 10.0.3 version. I think Oneplus has more vivid colours and maybe like them more than Pixel's.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] TurboBot247:
Merry Christmas, and thanks a lot for the comparison. In those indoor shots, the 7 Pro actually did a little better than the Pixel 4. The Pixel did well and I like that the Pixel's image processing is always willing to capture as much detail in a scene as possible (even at the expense of noise), but the OnePlus managed to capture more detail and produce better exposure in all of those scenes while still producing less noisy images. I still prefer the color palette of Pixel images though, but that's personal choice.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] dyastrab:

^very Cool pictures! Kudos
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Gerr1985:
The gcam port was a huge help over the stock camera! I came from a Pixel 2XL and with the gcam port on my OnePlus 7 pro allows me to take better photos. The Video recording is far superior than my Pixel 2XL could do by a huge margin! I tend to use the gcam port for pictures and the stock camera for video recordings.

Another thought...

The triple camera is nice, but I'm finding I don't use the telephoto lens much, same with the wide angle lens. For those occasional times I do want to zoom in close or take a wide angle its nice, but overall it feels a bit gimmicky and not entirely needed. Kudo's to all the cell phone manufactures for selling people on the triple camera's!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] f2bacon:
i don't get it at all. holding the 7 pro side by side with my old 6t and the 6t looks better in absolutely every regard. both running havoc rom, the 6t uses the oneplus camera, and the 7 pro has google camera, oneplus camera, and some crappy build in camera app. no matter what i do everything looks worse on the 7 pro. my beard hair looks like it has a smoothing effect while my face looks like it has a blemish and pimple pixelator. colors seem washed out and flat. my dark hair looks almost blonde, outdoor pictures end up getting overexposed in certain parts, i just dont get it. i thought it was the same camera module or better.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] mookiexl:
I've found that GCam version 6.1 takes the best pictures of all the ports and different camera apps I've tried. What I find most interesting is that my moto z2force with Gcam takes better pictures than my OnePlus7pro stock camera.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] f2bacon:
i couldn't find 6.1 but 6.2 looks better than anything else ive had. i still feel like there's sharpening or something. i can see my individual pores way more clearly on the new phone, and not in a good way. even with the stupid face smoothing on, its pretty meh. but the xcam 6.2 with config is probably the closest to the 6t in terms of being good. i wouldnt be too mad using this from now on
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] ca12bon:
Anyone come from Huawei? Such as the Mate 20 Pro or P30 Pro?

I have a P30 Pro but hate the OS. I need a phone with great UI that takes super photos and has good battery life. I narrowed the list down to Note 10 Plus and OP7 Pro, and leaning heavily towards the latter. What is the camera quality like with the latest release, compared to Huawei phones?

Here are some samples taken in night mode on my P30 Pro
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] jamesfitzes:
Neither of those devices will beat the P30 pro. But I'd say the note10 plus is much better than op7 pro when it comes to camera. I sold my op7 pro to get a note 10 plus and the biggest reason was the camera.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Shipoftheline:
I came from the Mate 20 Pro and I'm happy with the camera's, check my examples on this thread

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=81353563&postcount=437
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] ca12bon:
Hmm.. I don't need the cameras to beat the P30 Pro perse, since I know not many (if at all) phones can beat it. I just need the camera quality to not be too far off from the P30 Pro. I love the Note series however even with Note 9, the battery life was meh at best. I'd say battery life has a higher priority for me, which is why I am leaning towards the op7 pro.

Those are some gorgeous shots. I think I actually prefer the temperature of the op7 pro over my p30 pro. Do you happen to have any low light or medium low light shots by chance?

[MENTION=4545580]ca12bon[/MENTION] I agree with your idea of waiting for 2020's smartphones to come. I'd actually say that the Note 10+ has the best camera between it, the 7 Pro, and the P30, because it is more well-rounded than the other two. The Note 10 takes better video across the board than the others, has more video options, and better photo capture with the primary/ultrawide cameras in every condition outside of low-light. The two things the Huawei has over the rest are the low light performance and that 5x periscope camera. The 7 Pro has a solid camera that is better than many Redditors make it out to be, but as I've said before in this thread, OnePlus tried too hard to make their camera well rounded. Aside from low-light primary cam photos and selfies, where Samsung is particularly weak, the OnePlus 7 Pro is close to but slightly worse than the Note 10+ in every other shooting scenario. I think the kicker this year was how lackluster the Pixels were; that kinda threw the 2019 smartphone market off in my opinion. I guess the move is to wait to see what OnePlus does for the 8 and 8 Pro, and if Google releases a 5G Pixel 4A with at least the SD765.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] ca12bon:
Ooo... very nice.. just curious, are they edited at all? I'm just asking because the saturation levels seem a tad bit on the higher side..

I see, yeah I'd imagine Samsung N10 camera is the most well-rounded, if the battery levels were on par with the Chinese counterparts, I would have jumped on it 100%. With my P30pro, I can get ridiculous SOT, which is important to me. Too bad about the Pixel too, and I agree, manufacturers seem to have a difficulty finding a good balance these days. Let's hope 2020 will bring us some good devices :cool:
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] Shipoftheline:
No I don't bother editing
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] redpoint73:
Not directed toward me, but I will say that the default processing on the stock OnePlus camera app is pretty saturated. Not too crazy; unlike the obviously unnatural saturation levels on the Samsung phone from a few years ago. 7 Pro stock camera app is just oversaturated enough to usually give it some "pop" without making the pics look too unnatural. Although skin tones do look a bit weird from time to time.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] regP:
Coming from a P3 XL the camera isnt great but I knew that would be the case coming in. Pictures are just a little too soft and flat. Also the color is often off. Hopefully OP can throw some software tweaks out to improve this. It's not a horrid camera but coming from the best camera there is on a phone right now it's a few steps down.

Choose yourself. I tried to take the photos in the exact same spot with the same angle and everything for best comparison.

This camera might not get it right 100% of the time, but it gets it right often enough that it shouldn't be a problem for many people.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] SmartBrother90:
THIS!! I really wanna get rid of my 3XL and as much as i like the S10+ its too pricey for me. I haven't. OnePlus needs to stop playing. This is the same reason why i gave up OP5, solid phone, crap camera
[OnePlus 7 Pro Real Life Review] marevic:
UGH

I have been trying the camera in all kinds of lighting conditions and it is just mediocre.

To the ppl saying you dont buy the phone for the camera, yes you do. That is one of the top features for some folks. If I cared only about performance, there would be plenty of phones to chose from. I want it all for the price, and that includes the camera.

These photos are just not great. The sharpness is not there. They are overexposed a lot of the times. The red turns more pink most of the time. I really do hope this update they mentioned fixes the post processing, because this is not good. I dont expect top notch, be the best phone, but I expect it not to feel like my phone from 2009 took the photos. Very disappointing. I love the phone otherwise, even though it is big and heavy, but the camera man, it is NOT GOOD. Hardware is there, but software needs work.

I ported over GCAM APK currently available, and pictures definitely have more sharpness, but colors are still little off with GCAM since it is not very well optimized for this phone.
