Advanced Camera (aka piggz-o-vision) is a community camera application for sailfish devices which utilises the latest features in 3.0.2 to query/set parameters supported by the device.
Allows full control over:
Currently selected parameters are displayed on the buttons where possible.
Tapping the screen sets the focus circle when in Auto/Macro/Continuous
Hold the shutter button to focus and take an image when in Auto/Macro/Continuous focus mode, other modes take an instant image.
Exposure mode will typically provide a HDR mode for taking HDR images.

With the latest improvements to manual focus mode, your app replaced the stock camera app on my Xperia X.
However, the portrait behaviour is a bit ... weird. While the app's controls switch nicely between landscape and portrait orientation, swiping does not. From my point of view, swiping direction should follow the physical device's orientation. It's not really intuitive to swipe from right to left to close the app after taking a photo and holding the device upright. Or am I missing something?
Also, preview and saved images are upside down when using the front camera.

Thanks for this great app with its lots of useful features! However, I'm still struggeling to get reliable focus in less than optimal lighting conditions. When tapping to set the focus point, this region of the image seems to be in focus. But when I then tap the shutter button to take the actual picture, the camera tries to focus again, and the resulting image is blurred. This behavior is tegardless of the focus mode. Is there any possibility to prevent this additional focus cycle?

Ive found that manual focus mode, which should allow the behaviour wou want, isnt actually supported, even though the camera backend claims to support it. Setting manual focus mode, atleast on my device results in Auto mode being selected. I have an idea to work around this so should be fixed in next release.

Xperia xa2 sfos 3.1: app takes the picture but freezes and never saves an image.
Looks quite promising though: nice macro functionality. Hope I can get a working version ;-)

Hi, I tried to install latest 0.3.0-1 version to my XA2 running Hossa 3.0.3.10 but got an error. Tried to install using pkcon also but got an error about "libaudioresource.so.1" missing. Any tips how to solve this? However, I was able to install 0.2.3-1 just fine.
EDIT: Never mind, typing "devel-su pkcon refresh" to terminal did the trick.

Is anyone capable of using the HDR mode in Xperia XA2? Selecting it, just make photo animation but app never saves it even hanging the whole application

Fantastic app that improves on the stock camera one. It would be useful though, to be able to use a volume button for the shutter function.

My wishlist is as follows:
For picture mode: Add option to choose file type. Or at least add ability to choose jpg compression.
For video mode I'm asking to: Add ability to choose bitrate+ frames per second option. Also ability to choose file type would be useful.
I'm ready to donate for them.

Great app! Is it possible to have the pictures taken by this app named with the standard naming algorithm used by the stock camera app? Something like YYYYMMDD_HHMM.jpg (this means that a photo taken today, April 4th 2019, at 14:08 would be named "20190404_1408.jpg").
This would make it easier to sort photos by date simply using the file name, useful with many simpler file managers.

Thank you! Works great on my XA2.
The CPU usage is nearly 70%, what could cause that?

Great App, thank you! Unfortunately, it works only with widescreen on my XCompact, so if i use it holding Phone vertically, icons down't rotate and i have to close app with swipe from right corner. Is anyone else having that problem?

Great app, all the tools missing from the stock camera app ... except focus does not work on my XA2 no matter which focus mode I select!
Focus works in stock camera.
