It's not yet possible to configure JPEG compression separately from the latency vs. quality preference for CameraX.
The latency vs. quality setting reduces the JPEG quality to 95% from 100% which makes it substantially smaller, often around 50% smaller. It also skips waiting for focus to fully lock.
It only disables HDR+ on the Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL so the pre-compression photo quality will be the same for latency mode.
Update -
Will be able to add this when this change is up in the next CameraX release (https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/1810060)
This option has now been added in the more/advanced settings activity.
Thanks a lot for making this feature request @pluja!
It would be nice to be able to choose a reduced photo quality to save space on the device.
