Android L with photos in RAW format – TELEPOLIS.PL

Camera 2 L API for Android brings a host of new photographic opportunities, including record RAW files or shooting at 30 frames per second.

It is a giant leap camera performance is determined by the developers who are in contact with Camera 2 API as the largest progress. Nexus 5 is gaining maximum speed of 30 frames per second in Burst mode or 8 fps when recording images at full resolution 8 Mpix. More efficient smartphones may prove to be even faster.

There are also functions known so far mainly with traditional cameras, such as a histogram, color control, semi-automatic locking mode of exposure or white balance, color adjustment flash Manual sharpening or write to Adobe DNG lossless RAW images.

Default setting cameras in phones do not always meet the expectations of users. Nexus 5 initially was set too long exposure time, making it easier raised about the pictures, and the HTC One did not deal with strong lighting and “burned free” personnel. These and other problems can get a few touches of the camera in manual mode on Android L, and mistakenly selected white balance can handle any application easily by reading the RAW-y.

So far, users of Android Nexusów 5 L Preview new features not they received. Camera app works very quickly, but with the “goodies” offers only lens blur, panorama, photos spherical HDR mode and exposure compensation. For additional features will probably have to wait until the final version of Android available L, planned for the autumn of this year.
