Hello all,
I have an issue with OpenCamera that s driving me crazy for not being able to work out a cause or cure.
Whenever I shoot a video from my tripod-mounted Samsung A51, the focus seems to jump spontaneously and randomly. It can be seen for example in this YouTube video, 14 seconds in : https://youtu.be/kGRFyuBd0Wk
I always set 'Exposure locked' but that does not solve the problem. I have all the settings on default, and have been trawling the documentation and Googling the problem without any luck. I initially had exactly the same problem with another app (Cinema FV Lite), and just after I switched to OpenCamera I thought the issue was gone. But alas it wasn't.
If anybody has an explanation for this, or ideally a fix also, I would be most grateful !
Cheers, Chris

I've come to the conclusion that this is probably a Samsung thing, because all camera apps I tried (OpenCamera, Cinema FV Lite, and Samsung Camera) do exactly the same.
