Made an app which behaves like a camera, structure wise, pipeline wise. All Fuji recipes work. Crazy three months of calibrating, programming the Ui but I get why many people don’t want the native camera app but Halide, Analogue, mood camera etc.
The sensor is really capable in our phones. I’m so happy, feels like I have my main cam always with me. :)

This is the Kanchenjunga from Darjeeling!

I started photography in general a few months ago and I’m shooting almost every day to improve. I shot them with my iPhone 16 Pro using FotorGear which allows me to use filters on my photos.

TYSM in advance

So, I made an android Videography focused camera app for pro videos, called Chi Kamera, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=lumagicpro.chiapps that uses the Camera2 API and removes all post-processing that phone manufacturers do to video/photos. Here is a comparison video of the same scene shot (on a very bright day) on stock GCam and Chi Kamera, both ungraded and graded. - https://youtu.be/mUlqaDxmk4k If this gets a decent response, I'll post some more samples if anybody's interested. Feel free to also post your videos show with this app in comments if you end up using the app.

It basically shoots open gate, a 4:3 full sensor readout (so your video resolution depends on your full/binned resolution, mine is 4634x3472 for example). I have also created manual controls in the form of circular sliders (akin Lumia Camera, if there are any Lumia or Windows phone 8.1 fans out here).

I started working on this as a personal project because there used to be an app called Cinema 4k but it hasn't been in the play store for a few years now + I really missed proper manual controls ever since windows phone went down. But once I started using it and looked at the amazing output (no nasty noise reduction and sharpening, great resolution, better bitrate and better overall quality in general, I thought why not make this a public app.

This is also still A WIP and I'm still trying to iron out the kinks and would love feedback. Please note that you might encounter bugs, some features may not work and you phone needs to have Camera2 capability. Hopefully it shouldn't freeze or crash but be ready for some weirdness.
