Auto corrected photos on modern smartphone os
-
What is your experience/opinion on a possible autocorrection on photos on ubuntu touch?
Quite annoyingly i am not pleased with the actual state of modern photo culture.
Especially on iPhones photos doesn't look real. Even under android with the aosp camera and the app 'open camera' there is clearly some smoothing going on.
The also camera even has some weird artifacts on human heads where parts of the head are double exposed without hdr.Is it possible to get rid of this under ubuntu touch or does it happen on kernel level and is also present with a halium based system?

@fungie While you wait for an answer here you could also try our photography group https://t.me/UT_photography

Have you actually seen it happen on UT?

@moem
I just tested ubuntu touch on a non daily drivable device so far, and didn't pay attention that much.A good reason to buy a new device to switch would be the ability to make unaltered fotos.
Therefore I am really interested in the experience about this with the community.
@Lakotaubp
I think this just makes sense when you also see the content of the picture in reality. -

Well, maybe you should. You seem to be the kind of person who notices these things, I'm not sure I would.
You seem to assume that this is a thing that happens, since you are asking how to get rid of it; wouldn't it make sense to first make sure that it actually happens?

@fungie You may well find that someone already in the photo group has an answer to your question from noticing the very same thing. The main reason for the group is to discuss and use the UT camera app on a range of devices. You wont know unless you ask

I actually checked the telegram group. On many pictures it seems they have the typical artificial google pixel background blur effect, while some of them are far off being calibrated, like i would expect at least on older models.

There's also this app in the OpenStore that has an auto picture correction feature:

It works pretty well and is from my side a "must have" app on Ubuntu Touch.

In general we use the Android camera blobs in "default" mode, whatever that is on a certain device. There is no postprocessing on UT side.
What happens in Android side though is hard to predict. At least denoising to some degree and auto-whitebalance I would assume.

I looked it up. The term is multi frame super resolution. Not sure if there is even actual hardware to process this kind of stuff.
Would be nice, if there was some generic mode, but what you day doesn't sound promising.
Iphones and google phones do this for sure. The galaxy s10 probably too, which i am interested in.
Anyway thanks for the info.
