Summary
All pictures (in JPEG mode) that i take with Open Camera have that huge size of 30.4MB ! Whatever settings i use, by day, by night, with flash, without flash, HDR.... with all the settings each picture i take is 30.4MB ! Very heavy and my memory get full very quickly. I think for a JPEG the size should be around 3 ou 4MB, maybe 5MB for the heavy ones, but not 30MB !
