Benjamin<p>What's a good Free Android camera app that saves location data to webp images?<br>Open Camera doesn't do that I just realized.</p><p><a href="https://toot.berlin/tags/Android" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Android</span></a> <a href="https://toot.berlin/tags/OpenCamera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenCamera</span></a> <a href="https://toot.berlin/tags/Camera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Camera</span></a></p>
mgorny-nyan (he) :autism:🙀🚂🐧<p>As I think I've mentioned already, for quite some time I'm using Open Camera's HDR mode to avoid overexposed and underexposed photos.</p><p>When I configured <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/OpenCamera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenCamera</span></a> on the new phone, I've noticed that the "UltraHDR" foramt is not supported in… HDR mode. So I've read more, and discovered that indeed there's some fancy automatic HDR+ mode that the Pixel uses when all fancy overrides are disabled.</p><p>But how to check if it actually works? So I've figured I'll install Google's stock camera app and compare the results. While configuring it, I've discovered that aside from the UltraHDR option, there's also a switch for DIsplay P3 color profile. So quite obviously, for a few days now I'm taking photos with both apps and comparing results.</p><p>Well, the files are different. The stock app photos use Display P3 color space and carry some extra HDR+ XMP metadata, while Open Camera uses sRGB. Additionally, the Google app forces JPEG quality of 95, while Open Camera defaults to 90 (and lets you change it).</p><p>And do they *look* different? Well, I wasn't able to spot any difference, no matter how hard I try (even with the JPEG quality setting difference). Perhaps it's that I lack appropriate software to see it. So I'm still torn between using the stock app that stores more precious data, or the Open Camera app that I love.</p><p>And then I've read "What is HDR, anyway?", and I got curious about the part about "good sensors have dynamic range approaching film". So perhaps I should just disable all the fancy HDR thingies, and play with RAW instead? Except now the question is: is FreeSoftware for developing raw photos in better shape than the one for HDR processing?</p><p><a href="https://opencamera.sourceforge.io/help.html#hdr" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">opencamera.sourceforge.io/help</span><span class="invisible">.html#hdr</span></a><br><a href="https://www.lux.camera/what-is-hdr/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">lux.camera/what-is-hdr/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
