Guys from AU, could you please test ghosting on photos, taken with HDR on a bright sun?
I mean, just take few photos with HDR enabled to see how it works now. Asus fixed color temperature on indoor photos, according to changelog. I wonder how other scenarios work now.
I'll check it out for you tomorrow, It's nightime now but I am happy to check it out for you. I don't really use the camera much so please excuse my amateurish photos
Is there a specific scene you want? Foliage? Selfie? Both? Wide or main lens?
As I can see, only in a few tests, probably the ghosting is gone - but I've noticed on some edges some blurry lines and some "jagged details" , but overall seems to be an improvement. Photos taken in EU, not AU :)
My bad, I didn't payed enough attention, ghosting still there, but the occurrence probably it is still random and depending on the scene. In the captured one I cannot be sure if it wasn't the wind involved - but I didn't quite qualified tests :)
Thank you for confirmation. I catched this issue more frequent on faces.
Main lense, any scenario, but I think it happens more frequent on portraits

dear Asus team,
Can you fix ghosting on photos, taken with or without HDR? It's not just my problem.
One of my main reasons to take pictures of/with leaves was the Dxomark review - since the very beginning they noticed the ghosting. Also (and I had a photo reply to you with a portrait of my son) , yes, indeed , the ghosting can be noticed on portraits. Sure, not all of the time, but it is there. If the Asus team/mods will require much more photos/tests, I am happy to provide them as many as possible - I am intrigued (and sort of disturbed) too about this issue, even the occurrence it is hard to be determined. Cheers!
ok, software problem was ignored again.
We should call ghostbusters
So wait, this is not supposed to happen at all? Because I get this always when subjects move in HDR mode and I thought this is expected behavior, since it takes multiple shots and glues them together via postprocessing...
This is not happening with still objects on phones which I previously have, like Oppo, Samsung, Huawei. Users of ZF8 also doesn't have this so frequent.
Also I don't, maybe this is kinda magic, inaccessible for Asus, but on Oppo Reno I didn't have that bug on portraits when person was moving.
"when subjects move" - your argument is invalid. This is not the case I am complaining.
Also, was ground moving in Dxomark review? I don't think their operator was flying above the earth to get images with artifacts.
As occasionally I have this issue, but not only in the HDR photos and also I am trying to keep my objectivity, I may say that both of you... are right in some areas. A HDR photo may have ghosting because of multiple photos sequence and of the postprocessing and even the subjects are not leaves an animal or a person in a portrait - the movement can be generated by the photographer. But the 7 Pro have OIS, probably that should compensate the slightly move. And so... we are back to the postprocessing. Probably there could be a better way of improvements. A couple of articles related (and I will not insert the Dxomark review - at that time 7/7 Pro had a different version of the software) :

Cheers
Well, I don't know, probably I am doing something wrong if Asus Camera making such shots
While Open Camera and Google Cam are ok in the same conditions.
It's not just ghosting/blur/whatever. It's lack of details as well.
I don't know how it really works on hardware and software level, I assume @edddd is right and instead of one-shot mode
Asus camera really makes multiple shots without OIS, while being in auto mode with auto HDR.
Anyway, since developers don't care, I don't see any reasons to complain about this again, it's just the waste of time.
We have to say something,all of us ,then at least we can say we tried.
If we say nothing then it's garanteed nothing will happen
We've all been saying a lot and for ages. Yet the story is the same every time 😴
Well, it should be posted separately as an issue, and probably you can insert all of the above comments and photos. Anyways, HDR ghosting is present in many devices and the solution even may partially come as an improvement for the postprocessing it is tricky, but worth a try to point this out to the moderators, again, as a separate thread.
It was posted as a separate issue and duly ignored.
I did this, I opened separate thread, it was ignored and closed.
Asus would rather solve calculator issue.
