It might be but I really did not check it yet. Can you reproduce the same issue with jolla camera?

This is always the case. Sensor maximum resolution is in 4:3 aspect ratio. 16:9 most likely involves some kind of hardware cropping element. It's how it is in modern hardware

- when you shoot a video and preview it, you get three buttons: share, delete, and go to gallery. this button takes you straight to the photo section of the gallery, regardless of whether a photo or a video was being previewed. It would make more sense for it to either go to the Gallery front page or to video/photo section according to what was being previewed.
- If I go to Gallery through that button in CameraPlus, I can go back to Gallery fromt page, but then I can't get back into any of the three sections (photo, video, ambience), the buttons don't react.
I will fix the first issue then. It never occurred to me. Thank you for reporting.

The 2nd issue is most likely a bug in gallery itself. I will see what I can do for that.

The idea is to be able to send the resulting video via IM apps like Whatsapp, Threema etc. I think Threema has a 25MB limit, Whatsapp is lower. I shot a 25sec. video at VGA res. which is 29,8MB, so it's not easy to get below the required limit with VGA res.
I can easily add that but we have an issue. All video resolutions use the same bitrate so the end result will still a bit large. This is something I need to fix.
