I found this phenomenon, and it can be reproduced stably. If I use a triple-camera to take a photo, if the picture is moving, or I move the phone, let's assume it moves horizontally, when I aim at an object, I press the shutter, which is called time T. At this time, the picture in the viewfinder is T0, and the photo produced is about T+100ms. If I use a single-camera to take a photo, use the same speed to move the phone to move the picture, and press the shutter when aiming at the same object, the photo produced is about T+400ms later.
Let me describe the problem I encountered in another way. Suppose a pile of cards are placed horizontally on the table, and the cards are written with numbers from left to right, 0,1,2,3,4,5,6...
Now aim the camera at the number 0, and then move to the right at a uniform speed. The numbers pass through the camera's viewfinder and continue to increase. When aiming at the number 5, press the shutter. If it is a triple-camera, the photo obtained will probably show 6, while if it is taken with a single-camera, the photo obtained will be about 9.
This means the triple camera can capture photos faster, but why is this the case? Any explanation?
Hello @PhonJac,
Rather than address your question directly (about why one capture device has more shutter lag than another), I think it would be more helpful to you if I simply point you towards Create a more responsive camera experience, which explains how you can implement Zero Shutter Lag in your app.
Best regards,
Greg
