CameraX 1.5 Brings Advanced Video Recording and Image Capture to Android
"CameraX 1.5 introduces support for capturing slow-motion and high frame-rate videos as well as unprocessed, uncompressed still images. These capabilities are enabled by the new SessionConfig API, which streamlines camera setup and configuration. One of our most anticipated features, slow-motion video, is now available. You can now capture high-speed video (e.g., 120 or 240 fps) and encode it directly into a dramatic slow-motion video. Alternatively, you can record at the same high frame rate to produce exceptionally smooth video."
"Another major enhancement in the CameraX API is the Feature Group API, which allows developers to combine multiple feature simultaneously, while ensuring the camera session is always stable. Currently, it supports HDR (HLG), 60 fps, Preview Stabilization, and Ultra HDR. Support for 4K recording and ultra-wide zoom is in the works, the CameraX team says. The Feature Group API also allows you to prioritize capture features so you obtain the best possible combination for your use case."
CameraX 1.5 adds high-speed video capture and unprocessed, uncompressed still image support. The SessionConfig API simplifies camera setup and enables slow-motion and high frame-rate recording. High-speed capture supports rates such as 120 and 240 fps, with options to encode directly into slow-motion or record at high frame rates for smoother playback. Developers can query capabilities via Recorder.getHighSpeedVideoCapabilities() and must set isSlowMotionEnabled=true for slow-motion encoding. The Feature Group API enables combining and prioritizing features like HDR (HLG), 60 fps, preview stabilization, and Ultra HDR, with additional features planned.
