<p>Google Camera can be used with the <a href="#sandboxed-play-services">sandboxed
Play services compatibility layer</a> and can take full advantage of the
- available cameras and image processing hardware as it can on the stock OS.
- Other camera apps could provide the same image quality and features but there
- aren't any comparable alternatives in practice. HDR+ is enabled by default and
- is a much more advanced replacement for HDR taking bursts of pictures and
- intelligently combining those which is what makes the image quality so much
- higher, especially for low light. The Night Sight feature is essentially the
- same thing, but with the light of the picture unnaturally increased through
- combining the data.</p>

+ <p>We aim to reduce the benefits of Google Camera compared to GrapheneOS
+ Camera over time, especially on Pixels. Many features of Google Camera will
+ end up being available for GrapheneOS Camera in the next year or so via
+ CameraX extensions including more aggressive HDR+, Night Sight and Portrait.
+ Video features such as Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS), slow motion and
+ time lapse are likely further away than within the next year. These videos
+ features could potentially be provided via CameraX vendor extensions or could
+ be implemented via our own post-processing of the video output. Panorama,
+ Photo Sphere, Astrophotography, Motion Photos, Frequent Faces, Dual Exposure
+ Controls, Google Lens, etc. aren't on the roadmap for GrapheneOS Camera. Video
+ refresh rate configuration and H.265 support should be available for
+ GrapheneOS Camera in the near future via CameraX improvements along with DNG
+ (RAW) support in the further future.</p>
