I’ve very thoroughly tested it on my (factory; no rooting) Nexus 7 2013 and found out the following:
– the new panorama support is GREAT, particularly if you enable maximum resolution (the default is high-res). Up until now, Google’s implementation was a joke – far-far inferior to either Apple’s one on the iPhone 4S+ or Samsung’s implementation in their Android handsets. Even Nokia’s WP (but not Symbian) implementation has been significantly better.
– blurring worked just GREAT in my tests. While some people did complain about it being slow(ish), I haven’t noticed speed problems on my N7, which, while “only” having a 5 Mpixel sensor, has a, compared to the SD800, significantly slower CPU.
What’s wrong? Most importantly, all manual modes have been removed, which is a BIG-BIG minus. There’s no
– scene selection
– manual WB and ISO setting
– timer
The first two is particularly painful as, with the new Camera app, you in no way can force the system to shoot at high shutter speeds.
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
