Android could support RAW images very ... - Android Help

Android some day be taken into account by professional photographers is something that is not clear. However, it could get a new update for Android that could make the professionals began to see it as an option to use, and it would include in its new API support for RAW format photographs .

RAW

is the format of professional excellence in the world of photography. And, it is an uncompressed format. That is, the RAW format photographs have not lost any information to be stored digitally. This makes the picture quality is maximized, which is ideal for digital photography revealed and amendments thereto. Of course, there’s also a downside, is that the photographs can become very heavy, even if the camera is a few megapixels, reaching 50 MB for each photograph. However, we know that each passing year the capacity is multiplied, so what today seems much, tomorrow might not be much.

Android The possibility that count with RAW support comes from the files of the new APIs that Google could have launched the new version Android 4.4 KitKat. Apparently not launched the new API because it was not ready, but among the novelties of it, included support for new formats, as well as full frame hardware control, and post-processing parameters at high frame rates. If we consider that the only format not included in Android 4.3 Jelly Bean was RAW, it is easy to deduce that this new format is RAW. In any case will have to wait. All documents that spoke of the new API were in the Android development framework, but have now been removed, so that Google might take this into account for a future update, maybe with the release of Android 4.5 KitKat, or Android 4.4.1 KitKat.
