DON"T BUY S21 ULTRA if video is important to you. Here is why....

S21 Ultra is an amazing phone but not for the videographers out there especially not for the people who work with mobile gimbals such as DJI Osmo 4

    Exactly! It's not Samsung's fault that DJI is too lazy and not innovative enough to make their device and software fully compatible with the s21 ultra. DJI are the idiots... iPhone only makes one type of phone... Samsung makes phones that can be compatible with different carriers...DJI need to step up and not going the easy way... Make your stuff just as compatible with Samsung as you do with iOS...

    it is an issue for those who buy Samsung. And that is what this video is about. And it is also downselling DJI gimbal in a way. Cos it is not all apples and oranges :D... But no gimbals app can meet Samsung camera apps. And there is always bluetooth options with limited features. That is still best when compared to other phones/gimbal apps.

    It will soon be the case that apple pays for it at DJI, so that it has perfect settings, preferably only iOS and not Android. The same is true for Filmic Pro, instagram and the like. Therefore, even if you close Apple devices compared to Android, this is their advantage. I use android for openness, but the system is actually closed ... I can only change icons and trivial things. Important third-party applications are very limited in Android compared to iOS. That `s my opinion.

    Yes it's true. Do you have a personal experience with this APK? When I still had the S21Ultra I always minded that not always after choosing a zoom lens the phone really took pictures through the zoom lens. Often he just made a cut out of the main sensor. The new Expert raw application is for photography only. When I want to set the video manually, I am again limited to the apk Expert raw. In Pro video mode, I only have the main and wide-angle sensor available. Both zoom lenses are again unavailable. It's the focus of samsung that I don't understand. But probably samsung will get money for making such a function not possible, otherwise I don't understand.

I tried even right clicking, modified, interpret footage and set to 25fps and it crashes in premiere. it is frustrating

    Therefore, apon samsung should try. It should have its own applications where all these options are available. But for an incomprehensible reason, he voluntarily blocks these options from the user and does not want to make them available. I mean to record video with all lenses at 60fps and switch between them while recording, choose the frequency of shooting in fps in pro mode, the ability to balance white, compensate exposure, sharpness and so on. What I write is not impossible for samsung. He has access to everything, he is not a third party.

Issues like stuttery4K 60 FPS, over sharpening, motion blur due to slow shutter speed, jelly effect on the edges while recording and even after post processing, dark and grainy indoor videos. Most reviews just plaster daylight and night time photos and compare with two or three other popular phones from the same year, and pat themselves on the back for making reviews.

    I have to agree. I use android and Samsung. I often take pictures of my children indoors by phone. Not in bad light at all. But the phone prefers to automatically select low iso and take photos at 1/30 or 1/50. It doesn't matter on static things, but when photographing people, the photos are blurred ... I also don't understand when I want to record video in 60FPS, I can't use a zoom lens anymore, and I have two at the end. In order for them to be available at all times, I only need to record 30fps. In addition, when I record with only one zoom without the ability to switch between other lenses, I also have the option to record 60fps. Another pointless restriction. In my opinion, this is only an intention, it would not be technically possible and the phone would not have the power to do so. There is also a difference between Snapdragon and Exynos. Exynos in a worse light begin to decay and details are lost. This is most evident in the surface structure where the video is too scratched, out of focus. The snapdragon doesn't do this at all, and the video's detailed amount is natural, it can be regulated by reducing the iso, but at least it's possible to keep the details.

    @McDjMagicAndrey2 жыл бұрын

    I agree with everything. What version did you have? Snapdragon or Exynos? The video is a nice summary for people who want to get the most out of the S21 Ultra. Almost nothing is possible. There is a mode for, but only for the main and ultra-wide lenses. Both zoom lenses cannot be controlled. And that's a really big shame. Now samsung has released an application that zoom lenses can finally be used when shooting raw. But the video is not for an incomprehensible reason. I also don't like that in bad or bad light, the phone decides whether to use a zoom lens, or just cut out from the main sensor even if I switch to a zoom lens. With the new EXPERT RAW apk for photography, perhaps this is already solved ... but not for video. The same goes for the settings restrictions in the DJI apk ... certainly the same in FILMIC PRO. I don't believe Samsung could prove it. I almost think that's the point so it's not perfect. It's a deal between Apple and Samsung. The battle between the two companies is only to the naked eye. The same goes for Instagram and the like. Apple probably pays for this advantage. I also had high expectations with the features on the papers and parameters of the S21 Ultra, but after personal experience I remained disappointed in many things. I have no personal experience with Iphone. I use android.

    First, the video footage you made was great :D Now for the flaws you mentioned isn't really flaws. When you create content videos with the aims to upload them on IG or any other social media, it's better to record with the stock camera, edit in post with Premiere Pro, FCPX, Da Vinci Resolve or whatever and then export to the right format to have no lost of quality when uploading on IG or whatever. However the Pro Video only give access to the wide and ultra wide angle and yes... that's a bummer. I suppose we dont have access to the telephoto or zoom capacity because they are solely based on the AI and image processing therefore... the zoom capacity isn't really lenses dedicated to telephoto or zoom. I doubt we will have Telephoto or zoom in Pro Mode Video for that reason. I may be wrong but... why didn't they directly provide us access to these tele and zoom lens on Pro Video. But there is one NEAT feature I love about the Pro Mode Video is the ability to record at 120p at 1080p. Why is that good ? Because it is fair enough to create great B Roll sequences, and B Roll with wide lens and ultra wide lens are actually what we are looking for to create some Daniel Schiffer style B Roll sequence. That's absolutely an underrated option that no one talk about :D

    OM4 is amazing but it has one huge disadvantage, you can't change gimbal modes with a button. So you have constantly to jump back and forth between default camera app and dji app. I never tested the Smooth 4 but I have tested other Zhiyun gimbals so it should be pretty nice. I would check out Moza Mini MX - I tested that one and I were very happy with everything. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit the 12 Pro Max and the moza app is not great but the gimbal is fully operational through the buttons and you don't have to use the moza app at alll

    Watching this a year later and a lot of this seems to not be the case anymore. And if you want a great gimbal, get a Moza MX 2. If you are serious about good footage from a phone, then nobody has really good stabilization. Just a fact. I shoot with a gimbal or tripod base. Truth is, I was part of a team that shot a commercial on iPhone 6’s. Nobody who watched knew what it was shot on unless they were told. Personally, I think that the 2021 iPad Pro is a much better camera than either the iPhone 13 or Samsung 21 Ultra. Or you could just get a pocket Red. Filmic Pro on my iPad or S21 Ultra gets me amazing stuff. The golden rules; keep it steady, give it plenty of light and make sure it’s interesting.

    Your issue are with apps not being optimized for the phone. That's an issue with Instagram and DJI Samsung can't force them to optimize their apps better. This is because app developers are lazy and they don't want to create a single version of the app for every single Android that exists it's much easier for them to do it for the small amount of iPhones that exist. You're basically getting a ported version of the app. The phone is great the app optimization is not but Samsung has no control over that which makes your points in the video really irrelevant

    I don't think you are degrading the S21 Ultra. However, it is DJI's fault 100% that their stupid device isn't as compatible with Samsung devices as with Apple devices. It's rather disgusting that they are too lazy to collaborate with Samsung to make their product as compatible with the S lines that consistently have much higher quality camera and video features than iPhones... I shouldn't be forced to have a device that I don't want just because companies are too blind to see the value of making their product equally compatible with both devices.

IPhone lenses are not perfect as well but they are consistent, when I record with all 3 lenses after that it doesn't look like I filmed it on a different camera, the white balance is very similar, the s21 ultra has a huge difference between the lenses + problems with 3d party apps.

    After watching all the camera reviews on the S21 ultra, i realized that the Cameras are great, probably the best best Camera phone ever made. It just depends on who is holding and shooting the videos. Watch Moment's review and you will be amazed kzread.info/dash/bejne/qKR1x7eFntq4fKQ.html

    I have never hated a phone more than I do the S21 Ultra 5G. It is too large for my hand, super heavy, and will NOT teter on a gimbal properly. Completely asinine.
