Nice pic!
Is there any chance we can have supermode functions in video mode? Instead of setting them in camera mode then switching to video mode... it would be great to change settings whilst in video mode, like it was possible to do with the last version.
And to re-organize positions of functions in video mode to have all possible functions in one layer
-1.7 Aino saturation
-1.3 Colorization Cb
-1.0 Colorization Cr
-0.7 Contrast
-0.3 Saturation
0.0 Zoom (quick use of camera)
+0.3 Exposure Compensation
+0.7 Color Source
+1.0 Color Destination
+1.3 Effects
+1.7 AE lock
+2.0 Manual focus (with autofocus option!)

This probably isn't possible, but if it is... it would be brilliant

i like the idea on re-organize positions of each functions

we have everything in just 1 layer but there's one missing on mriley's post, the Gain function

and on the 2nd layer will be additional/extra/future functions

Nah, that list of functions only relates to video mode supermode functions, not camera mode (both gain and shutter speed are missing) as these have no effect on video, I left them out.

In video mode? I'm not sure, not now for sure. Sadly not everything I wanted to do in v6.3 was possible, nevermind it will be less complicated.











It's better to overexpose pictures instead of underexpose. Underexposed are very pale, that's why light sensor is problem #1 in the camera - it's hard to find good exposure.

THANK YOU!!! Raiderski.
You have achived to make great sunny landscape photos.

What are the news for v6.3?

Is it possible to change the shortcut on the keypad 3, 6, 9, #? I'd really like the 9 to change focus instead of self-timer.

I still have problems with proper autoexposure in sunny landscape shots. Maybe I'm too much accustomed to K800 where things were simpler. I had similiar problem when I changed W800 to K800.

Is it possible to change the shortcut on the keypad 3, 6, 9, #?

No, keys management doesn't belong to driver, only patch can do the trick.

Is this the problem of either the sky being very over-exposed or the ground being very under-exposed?

The sky and the ground both underexposed, without any reason, that's what suprise me most. Instead of vivid pictures they are dull. C901 seems to be a bit overzealous in AE calculations when light is strong at whole area of the picture. Almost all histograms of such pictures have suddenly cut off zone of bright pixels. This is where +0.3EV comes in handy, however underexposure shouldn't happen in auto mode in very good light conditions.

Some time ago I was doing a picture with K800/Raider driver.
Today accidentally I came across a similar situation and decided
to shoot with C901/Raider driver.
Even the date is almost the same and although K800 was one of
the best cameraphones in his time, I think you can find the differences ...

You'll see soon I hope so Don't expect too much because I started from long list of changes (wishlist) and it's getting shorter each day Now I'm not even sure whether I should name it v6.3 or just stay in 6.2.x branch.

Thanks Sure you can use it no matter of FW version, type, language, etc.

In draft version it really could surprise but not now I just realized that poor effect on most pictures is my fault and unnecessary I was looking for the problem in driver. My fault


Next portion of pictures, this time without any faults:
1. Daylight WB for daylight
2. My attention was on autoexposure to avoid underexposures

Effect is much much better - 100% happy me
