" summary

Android 13 adds concrete camera features: HLG10 10‑bit HDR video capture (over 1 billion colors to reduce banding) encoded with HEVC Main10 + BT2020/HLG transfer, selectable via REQUEST_AVAILABLE_CAPABILITIES_DYNAMIC_RANGE_10_BIT and REQUEST_AVAILABLE_DYNAMIC_RANGE_PROFILES; session config uses CONFIG_DYNAMIC_RANGE_PROFILE. New scaler_available_stream_use_cases lets vendors optimize streams (preview, video, preview_video_still, etc.) for FPS or quality. Preview stabilization applies encoder stabilization to the viewfinder via control_available_video_stabilization_modes, and create_extension_session exposes OEM extensions already on 160+ devices.
