Keep in mind that the <em>latest<\/em> isn&#8217;t always the <em>best<\/em> version.<\/p>\n<p>To improve your dynamic range, you should use HDR+ Enhanced. Sometimes you need yo enable this in the settings menu (look for something called &#8220;HDR+ Control&#8221; or similar. Then, in the viewfinder, swipe down and enable the HDR+ Enhanced option.<\/p>\n<p>HDR+ Enhanced is better, but it&#8217;s also slower, so it&#8217;s not suitable for all uses. HDR+ On is faster, but won&#8217;t give you the same level of detail or range (eg: the sky can be too bright when taking a selfie).<\/p>\n<p>To use the extra cameras on your Moto G40 and Moto G60, you may have to enable the controls inside the settings menu. Look for &#8220;Aux cameras&#8221;, &#8220;Auxiliary cameras&#8221; or &#8220;Set camera IDs&#8221;.<\/p>\n<h3>Limitations:<\/h3>\n<p>For video recording, especially stabilisation, the stock camera might be better. Slow motion often doesn&#8217;t work or is lower FPS than the original app.<\/p>\n<div id=\"celso-3476548487\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- Celso GCam Page Moto G30 2 -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6897310014199352\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"9266995017\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n<h3>Useful links:<\/h3>\n<p>The best places to ask for help is where other users are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/xdaforums.com\/t\/stable-working-gcam-for-moto-g40-fusion.4281749\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">XDA forum for the G40 Fusion<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/xdaforums.com\/t\/google-camera-gcam-for-moto-g60.4272857\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">XDA forum for the G60<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/motoGCAM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram group<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/MotoG\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Subreddit<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a list of stable GCam versions for the Motorola Moto G40 Fusion and Moto G60.
