RAW is not quite what they want (I think). It's HDR+ that they need to disable. The latter takes multiple frames at different exposures and smartly merged them into a single photo, then applies extra color corrections on top. Taking RAW skips the last step, but you still get a merging of multiple frames. Disabling HDR+ will, I believe, take a single frame. Of course on a small phone sensor, the quality will be quite bad.
- mgraczyk 5y agoYeah I work on HDR+. Depends on the phone though, only certain phones run full HDR+, but they all do some sort of multi frame processing. If you were able to disable HDR+ and get a single captured frame, it would look horrible. You'd have to merge multiple frames yourself to get something decent. You can Google around for ways to do that but it will only work on a few phones.
- kuschku 5y agoThe way HDR+ merges stuff (which looks awesome, but something is just off, especially in darker environments) is actually why I bought a Sony α6300. Used it was cheaper with a good lens than a Google Pixel would have been (my Pixel 1 stopped getting updates after all) and the photos it takes are incredible.
