Questions about filming video with the Pinephone

60 fps probably not. The datasheet showed the fps increasing steadily as the resolution decreased downward. You would need to dive deep into the data sheet to find what the maximum frame rate at 1080p is. It might be a bit higher than 30 fps, but it is almost certainly less than 45 fps.

Thanks, that clarifies what I wanted to know. So at least the same video quality as a Samsung Galaxy S3 should be assured, that's great! Just curious: Is there a hardcoded limit in the camera against trying to film at 60 FPS, or can you still try it but if the hardware can't handle the data flow you get laggy footage?

It can take pictures with both cameras on the PinePhone, and does the post processing to do color correction and that sort of thing. Note that such post processing is not done for the preview.

I see. So I need a separate app to film video then, other than the one used to take photos? What is a good one to install if so? GUI based obviously... even I'm not that nerdy to type a console command whenever I walk across something I want to take a film of Big Grin
