Advanced Camera
Donations: https://paypal.me/piggz
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

Looks good , just to report using it on 3 camera enabled 10 III by patch
-efects greyscale etc.. don't work.
-icon for wide angle is one tree, icon for tele lens is 3 trees, should be reversed?
-where I expected to find exposure I find a slider for zoom (which I rarely use) Where is the exposure - maybe I am overlooking it?
-a feature I am looking for is the possiblity to assign a custom map per foto shoot session, could save a lot of time in file management.

I love this app! Been completely happy with it since figuring out how to install it from the right repository. There is a problem with the battery draw when using the app if i forget to completely close it down. This is the only application that runs as if the screen is still on if you forget to manaully close it down. So, i've learned to close ('X') out of the application after recording any video. Because if i do not, i will pull the phone back out from my pocket 45 minutes later and will see a lower battery percentage number by about 30 points and a phone that is now warm to the touch.
This was something i noticed when i was trying to record various shot takes and angles to put together a fun montage, but took a bit too much time between getting back to what i was doing for something like a ''before & after comparasion video” or any a change of location videos with multiple locales.
If i left the application ON in the background even with the screen shut off (blank/black) this application will drain the phone battery out.
Its something i know to keep an eye on so it doesnt stop me from using the XA2 as my video camera rig.

Wow, its fixed by following the first line under the previous page that gives instructions to this app. It looks like i had a .0 version and a .7 version was available to download from CHUM repository and not this outdated StoreMan. Well i installed another StoreMan app and the CHUM store, and THAT VERSION the camera on the rear camera DOES WORK. I got to test it out more, but that major gripe is resolved for me.

Can someone please update this please. The focus breathing is unbearable on the stock app for recording video with no option to set focus like with this advanced camera application.

Hi Piggz,
On xperia 10 II, on sailfish 4.3.0.12, Advanced camera installed itself without issue. But the app is not starting. The main screen never shows. Do i miss a dependency?
Thanks in advance for your help.

@prometheos: no, the photo is full black and nothing is visible on it. Have now 4.2.0.21 and will retry installing and will report soon
Edit: on 4.2.0.21 the selfie camera works with some settings, others not. The main camera never works.

4.2.0.19 update on Sony peria XA2 H4113 seems to break main and selfie camera access.
When app is launched it shows all setting posibilities, but the image remains black.

4.2 update on Sony peria X (Compact) seem to broke main camera access.
When app is launched it shows image from main sensor for a brief moment, then image goes black. Tapping to refocus shows image for a second then it goes black again.
Selfie shooter is ok.

Hello again, amazing app, I use instad the stack one always! But I miss something, to be possible to block the screen or at least the touch digitalizer and shot with the volume buttons, for use in wet envirements or under water. I was trying to shot a picture on a lake and was impossible!
Other thing would be great is to adjust manually the light (in a scroll as there is already for zoom)
Thanks for that great job!

O glorious piggz! Your app is magnificent! I beg you, add a flash setting that keeps the light continouously on (like a flashlight) for night photos! Long have I sought this power, to no avail!
