Worst thing about the 3a camera is the shutter speed… try taking a photo of something moving a bit. After processing a few seconds later the entire photo shifts into something else.
I tend to use GCam now to take photos of my daughter - it’s pretty much instant without the processing lag that ruins the photo.
Only version I have found that works on the 3a to a satisfactory level is this one:

I’ve tried countless GCam ports and this is the only one that seems to produce a good quality image (details/sharpness) similar to Stock). I disable Auto White Balance though as it looks more lifelike with it off
GCam HDR is also better… attached two photos. 1st darker one is stock, 2nd is GCam. Both are just point and click without any editing… it also gives better skintone
