@Escain said in Any solution to get decent photos?:
my picture with 12.6MP is usually between 2 and 3MB, but that could depends on the details on the image.
I tried with a zoom and the image is indeed smaller at 2.8 Mb - as could be expected with a zoom done in software, there is less detail.
I played a bit with the zoom (never used it before, for doing near distance photos I find much easier to actually get the phone nearer to the object) and it can indeed throw the focus off, but doing the video/still image switch fixed it.

several hypothesis
compression: my guess is not, 4.5 Mb for a jpeg image is not very aggressively compressed if at all.
beautifying filter: there is nothing of the sort in the app code, as it is using QT controls it could be integrated in these controls, don't know.
problems with zoom: this could be the more likely idea.
Maybe you could give a try to the photo app in Waydroid. When faced with the focus problems, before finding the switch to video trick, I found that it focused properly immediately for near distance photos.
