Open Camera does a great job at mitigating /flicker/. How does that work
exactly?
I'm in the U.S. which has a standard electrical frequency of 60Hz. I'm
using 4' Barina T5 LED lights in a studio setting with my Samsung Galaxy
S23, primary camera. Using Open Camera and saving DNGs, the flicker is
mitigated most effectively. However, the problem I keep running into is
the Zoom, or magnification setting; e.g., 1.38x, the saved image is
always at a zoom mag. of 1x.
Using the native app that comes from Samung, Camera, Pro, I can save
DNGs with their zoom magnification unchanged, but the flicker remains no
matter how the ISO and shutter speeds are adjust; e.g., Auto ISO, manual
fixed 1/250; etc., see screenshot below as an example.
To be clear, the term /flicker/, in this context, appears as a linear
gradient running along the major axis, almost looking like a shadow, or
uneven lighting, when neither is in fact the case.
Any thoughts would be most welcome.
Kind regards,
Kelly
