NOTE: Versions 0.9.5 and above are available in the sailfishos:chum repository

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:

  • Effects
  • Exposure/scene modes
  • Focus mode
  • Resolution
  • White Balance
  • Flash mode
  • ISO

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.

Known Issues:

  • XA2 cant take HDR photos, this will be fixed in a future SFOS-X release

The cameraId has changed from a string (primary, secondary) to an integer allowing to accommodate for devices with more than two cameras.

I've hacked piggz-o-vision to allow for all 4 cameras to be used on my Xperia 10II, maybe this also fixes it for XA2.

I already have a PR for 4.1, though, its a breaking change, so wont work on 4.0.  It also has issues that should be fixed in 4.2.  I will make a build of it available soon.

Thank you, Version 0.8.1 fixes the issues with the three main cameras on Xperia 10 II

Hey piggz, would it be possible for you to rebuild the app with aarch64 for the 64bit devices?

Hey Piggz, I was just wondering - could be possible to make a webcam app, or an Advanced camera feature, which will make a webcam from my SFOS equipped phone? I mean something like Droidcam for Android :) Maybe it could use Droidcam on PC side and native app on SFOS side.

two new bugs in sailfish 4.0.1.48:
1) camera hardware button doesnt work
2) sharing from the builtin image viewer shows empty contacts (so you cannot send MMS from adv-camera, you have to use gallery app)

I'm seeing the no contacts thing, too. SFOS 4.1.0.24, Advanced Camera 0.8.1-1.4. I can enter a number manually and MMS a picture fine. (Sharing from Jolla Gallery still works with MMS as expected.)  Is "jail" the new sandboxing thing? I guess that does keep rogue apps from snooping on stuff they shouldn't . . .

I like the new "choose main camera" thing on the 10 II. Thanks! I've used it already.

It'd be neat to also be able to switch between the selfie cams on the XA2 Ultra. No rush, though, since my device is cranky about rebooting periodically. My bad for buying used . . .

Thanks again.

Hi Adam, on my device (XZ2) the ISO control button is missing. Does that mean that the camera driver doesn't support the ISO setting?

piggz

Fri, 2020/12/11 - 11:29

Correct, it means ISO settings arnt exposed by your camera stack, which i beleive is getting more common on newer devices.

What in my opinion is missing, but probably is really easy to implement would be camera sound for taking pictures. Maybe with an option to turn it off, for situations were it might disturb. The original camera app has this sound, and i find it pratical to know when a picture has been taken. Thanks really much Piggz!

Basically a phantastic app, thank You. A little feature request: Changing the destination where the images where saved (e.g. SD Card) would be very usefull.

I think the metadata is missing the time and date, when the images are captured. So when I copy the images to the SD Card the time and date stamp changed to the current date (when I copied them), so they were sorted in the gallery app wrongly. This could be a good fix.

Do you have libkeepalive installed?

FYI, this provides roughtly the same functionality as DisplayBlanking in Nemo.Keepalive:

https://github.com/monich/harbour-lib/blob/master/include/HarbourDisplay...

I'm using it in my Harbour apps to avoid dependencies on specific Nemo.Keepalive version installed (or not installed) on the device.

Hello. Awesome app, thank you! Do you think it might be possible to add a timelapse function? I used to rely on https://openrepos.net/content/lightx2/timelapse but it has not been updated anymore. Thanks!

I tried taking HDR photos on XA2 Plus, but nothing happened. It's just like a regular photo.

Why this unpractical zoom, and no possibility to zoom by opening or closing your fingers on the screen. Would be much more convenient then this zooming bar. Thanks!
