    Yeah, the only alternative I know of would be Gcam with unnecessary permissions removed.

    Other than that, the LineageOS default cam can use all the lenses, but doesn’t have any useful manual settings.

      Nope, not on my one+ 9pro at least. It’s the same as opencamera, but without the manual control. So it’s even worse.

      Edit: no it does have access to all lenses actually, the auto-focus on the macro lens just doesn’t work (making that one useless). It still doesn’t do slow-motion though.

        Oh wow, so it’s even worse than I thought. It works on my one+ 5t, but maybe because I’m running DivestOS? Or one+ has just closed down the camera api on newer models

          I updated my comment, I was mistaken.

          it does have access to all lenses actually, the auto-focus on the macro lens just doesn’t work (making that one useless). It still doesn’t do slow-motion recording though.

            Ohhh, okay. Gotta say, wouldn’t have surprised me though.

            auto-focus on the macro lens just doesn’t work (making that one useless)

            So you basically have a fixed focus distance, or is it all over the place because the auto-focus freaks out?

              It’s fixed focus, but at the maximum distance which is pretty close the minimum distance for the regular lense.

                Oh, that sounds annoying. If it’s any consolation, there’s clip-on macro lenses for closer focus that can be had for just a few bucks.

                Speaking from experience, you can produce some really cool shots with those, if there isn’t any other solution for that problem.
