Camera app for android on Pixel 7 FPS

PostSun Jan 05, 2025 2:11 am

Hello all.

We're choosing a phone for some light shooting and part of the decision process involves being able to use Blackmagic Camera app.

Leaning towards Android for several reasons, I'm settling on a Pixel 7 for a balance of camera quality vs cost (budget is not high). Yet I have one doubt. It seems the camera on the Pixel 7 is limited to 30 or 60 fps in 4k with no support for 24fps, and I'm wondering if this is an app limitation that BM Camera APP can get around and shoot at 24fps, or if it's impossible (not exposed at all via camera2 api) to shoot at 24fps.

If anybody with a Pixel 7 could give me feedback on this I'd be very grateful.

The BMD app on a Pixel 6a has 24, 25,30,48,50,60 fps as options. 24fps is not available on the phone's native video app.

However, I have not tested the video, to confirm or assess quality.
