When a mobile updates, the first thing users usually look at are the news of its camera app. Android 11 has not brought great features to OnePlus smartphones, something that the next update of the OnePlus Camera app that has already been analyzed by the guys at XDA Developers will do.
The team of professionals has revealed the next functions that will come to the brand’s mobiles. After having access to the APK of the OnePlus camera app, it has been discovered that the Chinese firm is working on different new functions, including Moon mode and Tilt-shift mode.
This is how your OnePlus camera changes
The new APK of the camera, identified with the version number 6.4.2.3, is already present in the latest beta of OxygenOS for the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7T, only uninhabited. Different lines of code have been found here related to new camera features that are expected to be released in the near future. They are:
Tilt-Shift mode
Tilt-Shift photography is known for depicting the real world as miniaturized through the use of tilt-shift lenses, a type of lens that can change its orientation and position relative to the image sensor. In a typical camera the lens and sensor are parallel to each other and in the same plane but if a tilt shift lens is used, the angle of the plane can be “tilted” or “changed” resulting in a miniature image. .
Since to get these types of photos you have to alter the hardware, it is likely that this mode will only reach the new OnePlus phones .
Starburst
Photography mode that allows you to register light sources with a starry effect.
Moon mode
Following the strategy initiated by Huawei and followed by other manufacturers, OnePlus is going to add an astronomical photography mode to its mobiles that allows the moon to be photographed in much greater detail in the darkest night. The manufacturer will even add different filters that will allow you to change the color of the moon.
Hyperlapse
The Chinese brand also works on a dedicated Hyperlapse capture mode that will allow us to record accelerated videos at long distances and collect in a short clip what happens in large periods of time.
Focus peaking
This feature is found in many professional cameras today and what it does is highlight the edges that are in focus to make them stand out even more from the background.
For when and on what mobiles?
Since the firm has not made progress in this regard, we do not know when these novelties of the OnePlus camera will be available although it is likely that they will come hand in hand with its next top of the range.
It is to be imagined that the first smartphones of the brand to boast of these new capture tools will be the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro that will be presented in a few weeks but nothing makes us think that some of the improvements of this update could not be applied to the current high-end mobiles of the manufacturer.
