I took a picture using the camera app and when I stored it using a Bitmap this is what it looks like:

Why is the image so blurry? Is there another way to capture the image without distorting the quality?

Edit: Code for how the image is being captured and previewed

override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
    if (requestCode == CAMERA_REQUEST_CODE) {
        val foodBitmap = Objects.requireNonNull(Objects.requireNonNull(data)!!.extras)!!["data"] as Bitmap
        food_image.setImageBitmap(foodBitmap)
    }
}

looks like you use preview image from Intent – Style-7 Jul 14 '20 at 18:22
@Style-7 I included the `Bitmap` line of code in my post to show how I'm getting the image. – Bert Hanz Jul 14 '20 at 18:27
this is preview image - not full – Style-7 Jul 14 '20 at 18:29
@Style-7 So how do I change it to get the full high-quality image instead of getting the preview? – Bert Hanz Jul 14 '20 at 18:32
@Style-7 You don't think I've tried that already? Why do you think I'm asking here? – Bert Hanz Jul 14 '20 at 18:34
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5991319/capture-image-from-camera-and-display-in-activity see Original answer (2015) you have to create a file then pass it to Intent – Style-7 Jul 14 '20 at 18:38
@Style-7 What if I don't want to create the file and save it in the gallery? Can I still do that or is the only way to do that is get the preview? – Bert Hanz Jul 14 '20 at 18:49
create a tmp file in local file storage – Style-7 Jul 14 '20 at 18:50
