I have a ESP32-S3-WROOM module which has camera and micro SD card module. I can take a snapshot a PIXELFORMAT_JPEG photo. However, when I change the pixelformat with "PIXELFORMAT_GRAYSCALE", I cant save a valid photo.
Average SVGA colored JPEG photo takes about 25-35 kB space. However the pixelformat grayscale files takes 480.000 B constant. Also the files could not open. (Corrupted). Here is my code:

file.write(buf, size);
// Define the chunk size
const size_t chunkSize = 2048;
// Write to serial in chunks
for(size_t i = 0; i < size; i += chunkSize) {
// Calculate the size of the current chunk
size_t currentChunkSize = ((i + chunkSize) <= size) ? chunkSize : (size - i);
// Write the current chunk to serial
Serial.write(buf + i, currentChunkSize);
Serial.println();
}
Serial.printf("Saved file to path: %s\r\n", path);
}
I also printed out the the image data to the Serial monitor. It is completely useless than JPEG pixel format image data.Weird thing is the saved files are 480 kB constant.
So anyone has an idea about this problem? Any idea can be useful.
