Does anyone have any issues taking a picture of their dogs, or anything moving? I noticed if I take a picture of my dogs, even if there's a slight movement after the shutter is pressed, the picture comes out blurry. I don't know if this is worth the RMA from Samsung? I'm using auto mode.
yep. any movement blurry

Yes but even in auto i couldn't get a non blurry pic
OIS compensates for your small jitters or vibration as you take the picture. It can't compensate for subject movement.
Doesn't pro mode help with the blur?
Blurry S9 photo?
Turn off the HDR setting. Even Iphones have trouble with ANY motion and HDR. The Samsung is taking 12 photos and stitching them together -- ANY difference between the 12 will soften or blur the final photo. TURN IT OFF.. I NEVER liked HDR anyway. I leave it off.

Just wondering if anyone noticed this and if it had affected the initial reviews on the camera of this phone. The smallest smudge on it affects the picture quality A LOT. I wonder if it's because it's resolving at such a high MP so it exaggerates the oil or dust.

This. I also noticed that when I was first playing with the camera, the "Beauty Shot" option was on in the camera settings. It blurs the photos significantly, at least the front facing camera. I think it's turned on by default. TURN IT OFF!
EDIT: Also, for night shots, I insist on the HDR mode, simply because the camera will not adjust exposure for **** at night or in any dark room. So it's a must. You have to hold the camera perfectly still, and make everyone keep smiling for a few seconds, because it takes several shots in sequence. But it's worth it. Pictures always turn out great.
Hi
Just wondering, when will the monochrome camera of the two cameras be used in real life scenario.
1.Will it always be used along with colour camera?
2.Will it be used when recording video?
I know wide aperture mode will definitely use both cameras. But for normal photos when I blocked monochrome camera, the colour camera still takes the same picture quality.
It can be used alone, and yes it is used to work with the RGB sensor, as for videos, they both work at the same time

While clicking normal pictures, both sensors are used. The monochrome sensor captures more light and hence, used for improving the shadows and details in a picture.
I haven't blocked the monochrome sensor while taking regular pictures.
If you did, then do post some samples of both scenarios.

Can we see a sample photo? One using both cameras and one blocking the monochrome sensor.
Yes, attaching the pics. One with both cameras unblocked. One with monochrome blocked. I don't see any difference in the camera settings, resolution, and quality. This is taken in normal photo mode.
Pic 1 is monochrome blocked.
The difference might be noticeable in low light conditions

I can see the minute difference. The one with unblocked monochrome sensor is a bit brighter than the one with blocked monochrome sensor.
The different isn't much noticeable here but it surely will be in low light conditions or scenes with high dynamic range.

At first glance, the difference is prominent. Left picture is brighter.
I dont see much difference betweeen the two pictures as such as the monochrome sensor is advertised as a big deal. But really we need more samples. I will do what I can when I get time.
Ultimately, I believe that the RGB camera is a real good one as we are getting good pictures out of the single camera! That's nice.

Lot of reviewers are saying it doesn't have any effect on low light photos
2nd lens is for taking pictures when light level is below 10 lux, for portrait mode and for autofocusing.
But in reality, the mechanism involved for taking low light pics is kind of useless and the end result is gimmicky and useless.
it's for bokeh effect and depth sening

Yep it's basically useless lens. Cheap way to make it more attractive for noobs
It's low light camera. I can definetly see them switch sometimes.
Also has a wider FOV (i don't know why), look at 1080p 60. Although i think that is without the EIS cut-in.
Also the bokeh effect can be done by having one focus near (at face) and one focus far (at landscape), and the bits in focus at far are blurred more. It is basically software, but with two lenses it can be better.
I came across a video on YouTube which shows how we can take better photos with the Rog Phone 2 using the Google Camera.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
I've seen several of these comparisons, and I often prefer the stock camera images over the Gcam images. The ones of the toy car and phone in that video are prime examples.
I suggest learning manual controls. Even if you don't use it in normal shooting, understanding what's going on with settings will help you take better photos. Remember, only you know what kind of photo you want, not some random programmer that never met you. Because of that, auto modes can be hit and miss, and understanding manual controls will allow you to quickly adjust for those times auto mode isn't working for you.
We need to make a camera thread, the photos from this phone are actually good without gcam

In good lighting it does much better than what I would have expected, and compared to my iPhone 11pro they are not horrible. Now taking photos at night that's a different story .

OIS is over-hyped anyway for a phone. The range of motion to correct isn't very big with such a small sensor. I've seen a test video of the electronic stabilization, and it worked extremely well.

What do you think nightsight does? It uses ois in nightshots for better images. You have no clue. Move along.

From https://www.blog.google/products/pixel/see-light-night-sight/
If your subject moves during the capture, Night Sight can adapt to prevent a modest amount of motion from ruining the shot. Instead of capturing one bright and blurry photo, Night Sight captures an equal amount of light over a burst of many photos that are dark but sharp. By merging this burst, Night Sight prevents motion blur and brightens the photo, giving you a bright and sharp photo.

My V20 has it and I can get maybe a notch slower shutter speed than without. Not much difference. If it was something like Pentax's full frame DSLR, that gives 5 stops of shake reduction, that would be a big difference.
Using Galaxy S20+ for about 2 weeks but noticed the HDR processing of the camera is very bad & everything in the sky is very over exposed and blown out. Every time taking a picture in indoor having a window on the shoot ether the sky on outside is very blown out or there is no light in room & some time both happens together. I'm wondering is there any HDR mechanism at all in the camera?

If you mean by the white tint at the curtain, thats the glare from the light on the camera lens. Can't be avoided by software.
I'm the old days, hdr is obtained by taking the same shot with higher exposure setting, normal exposure setting and lower exposure setting and combine all 3 into one.
In modern camera, it is done automatically and usually only up and down a few steps.
Unfortunately for your case, it require more than just a few steps. The brightness difference is just too great between outside and inside.
If you really want to take those unimpressive shots, what you can do is focus outside and set the exposure for outside. Then switch on the flash and use it as fill in flash. The shot will come out better.
But honestly try to take something better.

I'm taking about the blown out sky.
It's because the camera is exposing for the dark interior, and the sky outside is far too bright for even HDR to compensate for.
As mentioned, you can set the exposure for the sky outside, and use a fill flash to bring up the brightness of the room you're in.

HDR was activated & seen many phones handle this situation better than this. All the current Huawei, apple, Google or even oneplus phone has much better HDR processing than this
Mine s20 ultra exynos hav much better hdr than that. Think youre phone is faulty.

There is no hdr in the world that can salvage that unless you do it manually or use an dslr and adjust the steps to larger steps.
