Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1121650

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Camera, defect, P1)

[Amy Lee [:amylee] UX]

Attachment: Flame_Camera_Images.zip

When taking photos, the images are often overexposed especially in daylight. 

I've attached photos taken with the Flame for reference.

Wesly, could you have T2M look into this please?

Attachment: Camera parameters comparison on v2.0, Flame KK 18D vs JB 123

I dumped the camera parameters used to configure the camera on v2.0 builds for JB and KK. As one can see, the difference is minimal and is due to situational properties (e.g. viewing angle of the camera). There is no configuration difference which should affect the exposure, white balancing, etc of the taken photo. So something likely has changed in the camera driver itself to cause the change in output.

Hi Youlong: 

would you help check this issue? Does it look like the same root cause of 1121650?

Thank you!

I will try it out once the sun emerges enough to ruin photos, thanks.

Youlong: This makes a *phenomenal* difference with the Flame camera when outdoors. I haven't noticed any regressions.
