@anirudh All gain/exposure/focus adjustment is manual so far. This means that when, say, making photos of constantly moving objects like cats you tend to lower exposure and apply a lot of gain so you have a chance to catch it in a still pose. Also, we need more driver work to access longer exposure modes anyway. It's all WIP and changes quickly, plus my photos are just me having fun along the way and aren't really proper demonstration of sensor's abilities ;)

@dukethereal It would probably be better to move farther and use a bit of analog zoom for this kind of photo on such camera, I guess - but since there's no analog zoom on L5 I tried to position them both the same way instead.

@Alexmitter Sooner or later yes. Most likely when the kernel drivers get media request API support, as otherwise we need a fork which is probably not worth rebasing onto 1.x.

Librem 5 (left) vs Canon SX740 HS (right)

Both photos are taken at around 3MP (quarter the resolution L5 actually supports, but for now only from the command line, while I took it using Megapixels). Manually adjusted the raw image from L5 to have similar color balance as Canon's photo.

The Librem 5 selfie camera used to be useful only outside in the daylight, but with some gain and exposure adjustments you can now make penguin selfies in the middle of the night too!

@BitBorderliner "Last year" is rather late in the queue and there will be now a pause due to component shortage, so most likely around the end of the year. See puri.sm/posts/the-ball-and-sup
