We recently posted Google Camera download link for Nokia 3.4. Now, we compare Google Camera to default Nokia Camera on Nokia 3.4 in terms of imaging quality.
We captured stills using both Google Camera and Nokia Camera on Nokia 3.4. Captured images represent many different lighting conditions and subjects.
Here are two comparison sets of 100% crops of images captured by Google and Nokia Camera. Google Camera image crop is on top followed by the Nokia Camera image crop on the bottom. Both images are captured in daylight but also have shadowed areas.
Set 1:
Set 2:
Auto-HDR is active on both Nokia Camera and Google Camera. In set 1 Google Camera underexposes the scene. Nokia Camera does better work in terms of capturing correct lighting. White balance is better in Nokia Camera images but colors however appear better in Google camera images. In set 2 however Google Camera captures more pleasing image though Nokia Camera captures correct exposure level again.
