These are runtime controls and so they apply to particular images from the camera. The trouble is that there's quite a long pipeline between sending values, the camera or ISP seeing them, doing something about them, and then you getting frames back which reflect them (and are all sat in a queue waiting to be read).
If you want to monitor the settings every second, for example, you could do
from picamera2 import Picamera2
import time
picam2 = Picamera2()
picam2.configure(picam2.preview_configuration())
picam2.start()
while True:
time.sleep(1)
print(picam2.capture_metadata())
You can also capture an entire "request" which includes all the images and settings from the camera, for example you'd amend the example above with
while True:
time.sleep(1)
request = picam2.capture_request()
image = request.make_array("main") # this is the image from the "main" stream
metadata = request.get_metadata() # this is the metadata which applies to all images in the request
request.release() # requests must always be returned to the camera system!
Picamera2 itself doesn't keep track of all the most recent values you sent. If that's what you wanted, you'd have to do it yourself:
last_controls_sent = last_controls_sent | controls_being_sent_now
Hope that helps!

Help was appreciated!
I'm converting an already existing IP camera based on raspberry, which went from USB camera device
and OpenCV: cap=cv2.VideoCapture() to a native raspberry Aducam B0393 with motorized focus.
I'm new to PiCamera2 and overall in libcamera lib so I need to learn step by step how to migrate
the old cap.get(prop_id) cap.set(prop_id, value) to PiCamera2 framework.
I don't need to read continuously the cap properties but:
- start the camera (I guess there are always default values for Contrast, Brightness, etc).
- get the oldest settings from a JSON file.
- get the current cap (camera controls states)
- apply only different values to camera.set_controls(controls)
Then when a cap (camera controls states) is necessary to change (human activity on UI)
change the camera control and eventually get active value to confirm the change.
