1. you have to override default zoom change reaction because we don't need zoom change at this moment, we want only to see camera reaction at selected register changes

seq_set_prop_6 = $s4 %0 $-4 0a #SM_TEST;

// $s4 %0 - place in reg 4 input value for actual zoom
// $-4 0a - substract 0a from reg 4
// #SM_TEST - call macro (subroutine)

input values for zoom are as described in camdriver source code:
// 10 => 1.0 x zoom, 11 => 1.1 x zoom, ... 160 => 16.0 x zoom

but we are using hex values that's why:
0a = 1.0x
0b = 1.1x
0c = 1.2x
...

we want those values not from 0a but from 00 that's why code $-4 0a is used


2. macro called SM_TEST should be declared before seq_set_prop_6

content of this macro can be anything. currently we only want to chceck that this is working:

SM_TEST=#COM_EVENT(55,$w4);

// get value from reg 4 and use as contrast

in this case i used command to change contrast (value will be taken from reg 4). for now you can play with contrast using zoom keys. max contrast should be 09 (zoom 1.9x)

this is very easy example showing how you can test many values for selected register with with zoom keys. replace #COM_EVENT(55,$w4) with anything and you can test every possible register/event (don't forget to use $w4 as input value)

that's pretty easy and can save a lot of time during any test




I tried that (overruling Zoom):

SM_TEST=#COM_EVENT(55,$w4);
seq_set_prop_6 = $s4 %0 $-4 0a #SM_TEST;

but it doesn't work as expected, Zoom is still there !
Why ? Any idea ?
I think it is working in "Video telephony", but I want it in Photo-Mode !

"Caller ID" text is deep orange. I thinks Genus 5.7 give right colour but a little dark. I hope Genus can fix it.

that level of sharpness is only good for macros or if you only want small vga sized pictures, look at the picture full size and zoom in a bit your see the effect of over sharping the picture and it's horrible loads of tiny sharpend pixels, it looks good on all pics upload here cause esato resizes them.

guys i own a point and shoot camera(canon powershot a640)
an slr(nikon d200)
and s.e.(k800i)

if we're talking about the original file size of jpegs in camera phones...
surely that pixels blow up.because of small sensor.particularly night shots

even the original cam driver does have noise and abberations,etc.

for my liking..

i only use my k800i for small prints.i do bring it a lot,as in "everyday"
its the least back up camera for all the cameras i own.

and i believe that if you post-process it.
it can hurt a lot.because like what i said. small sensor.

these mods by various makers...genus,gprsman,number1,kopritis,etc.
do very good jobs in creating pictures,for less or even no post processing.

they make the best out of the cell phone's camera driver mentioned

if i we're you guys...I'd buy a point and shoot if i want good pictures in lowlight and flash photography.

an slr for overall purpose camera.


for the k800i...i just use the mod which has a good fps shooting capability,and vivid color..it doesn't matter to me if the flash is not good enough..i wouldn't expect that with a camera phone.
i always resize any pic i take with the phone, so that the blown out pixels will compress.

camera phone pictures,are just like snapshots.from my point of view.
if i want to do some general photography with the phone..id say a mod with vivid color and a good fps shooting will do.

reducing compression gives more noise, as the k800i compresses the pictures to reduce noise anyway you done it wrong

seq_set_prop_5_9 = $"3M_low_comp"
#SET_REG(19,5A) // JPEG_INIT_QUALITY = 0x5A = 90
#SET_REG(13,82) #SET_REG(14,03)
#SET_REG(17,0C) #SET_REG(18,03)
#SET_REG(15,75) #SET_REG(16,02)

the right side seems to be how the picture is compressed,

seq_set_prop_5_9 = $"3M_low_comp"
#SET_REG(19,5A) // JPEG_INIT_QUALITY = 0x5A = 90
#SET_REG(13,82) #SET_REG(14,03)
#SET_REG(17,0C) #SET_REG(18,03)
#SET_REG(15,75) #SET_REG(16,03)
that gives a less compressed picture
the left side seems to be files sizes i have no idea how it works and what value is what, i guessed these in the my 2.9 driver.




@Number1
It's better to reduce jpeg compression cause jpeg algorithm does not compress noise and on flat colors it's increased.

Your 2.9 driver has too much red noise in night pics with flash and that is very irritating. I think it's because of saturation, but your driver is in the right way.

@genus
All I can say about your driver is: NOISE, very much noise in most situations but great pics at night.


By now, the best driver for me is still Kop 2.7 with many fixes and fps from Kop 3.71, as it gives an awesome clear twilight landscape mode and very less noise on flash/poor light pictures. Colors are not so beautiful (but maybe more real). I'm completely satisfied with it. Just an opinion.

Hope Number1 will do any better soon.

Thanks both of you for your work.


Well, give us some pictures taked with camdriver are u using.... Can be?




Pictures with Kopritis 2.7 fixed-

Automatic mode with flash:






Automatic mode without flash:






Twilight landscape EV +0.3:




This is a shaky one:


All automatic:







The driver I'm using is this:

http://www.4shared.com/file/2[....]s_37_fix_100_compressions.html

but changing fps to 18. Flash is forced in automatic mode for reducing noise so you have to put it off at daylight in some cases.
