One thing I noticed on my Galaxy S7 camera is that there is stutter in pro mode and not in auto mode when panning. The manual settings do not seem to be able to smooth this out. For video purposes, I have to choose between the pro features that I want, or a smooth pan. Perhaps they have fixed this in newer phones.

The profile look filters why don't I have them on my S9+ but only manual mode? Camera is running latest update

Thank you, this was and is GREAT! Who made the beat in the background? Even the "soundtrack" was good. 👍🏾

Nice video but the mode itself only is ok for situations with steady lighting and static shots. By the time you tune up the exposure a moving subject would be far away. I've got the phone hoping to see apeture priority there. I wish they rather did semi-manual controls Av, Tv, and locking the ISO, with exposure compensation that would work for many situations.

Why I don't have food selfie and other options on top of the screen?? I have on top those you have on bottom..

Brent, brilliant video, its certainly encouraged me to start experimenting with my Note 8. Have you had a chance to review the Moment Pro camera app at all?

Thanks Roy! I do have the moment app, but I haven't reviewed it. So far, at least for Android, I wouldn't use it over the Samsung pro mode. It just doesn't have as many options and controls yet. I've had a lot of people ask me for a review on it, but I just don't think it's ready to compete with the Samsung pro mode yet, so I've been waiting to see if they will add some improvements.

I would if I had a Pixel, but I don't have one and I don't know anyone who does. You could stack images using some free desktop software, like Deep Sky Stacker, or something. That will definitely help reduce noise and make a brighter, cleaner image. It takes a lot of extra effort though, and it still wouldn't give you dslr level quality, but it might be worth a shot.

Hi Brent! May i know what is long shutter exposure for? And how do you find it useful? Sorry, i'm newbie here..

@BrentHall

5 жыл бұрын

Long exposures can be useful for lots of things. Basically the longer your shutter speed, the more light you let in. So, it's very good for low light, night time, stars, light trails, and even during the day if you put a filter on then you can do long exposures to smooth out water and clouds, or make people disappear from an image and blur out passing cars. Lots of useful things. I have videos on doing all that stuff on my channel if you want to learn how to do it.

Downside to this is that for the most part, it's always a point n shoot type of scenario so having to play with pro mode and adjust settings can take a long time and possibly miss out on the perfect moment.

You were using presets in video but you didn't tell us how to make them. Also can you use presets when shooting 4K 60p ? and lastly would you know the bit rate when shooting 4k video?

@BrentHall

6 жыл бұрын

For creating your own custom presets, just tap on either of the custom tones (T1 and T2) and adjust the settings to what you want. Unfortunately you can only use those presets for video when filming in the the regualr 1080 (FHD) mode, they will not work in 4K or slow motion modes (which is beyond seriously lame). With the H.264 codec, the 4K @ 60fps are captured at 72Mbps bitrate, the 4K @ 30fps - 41Mbps, the 1080p @ 30fps - 13.3Mbps, and the 1080p @ 60fps - 27.5Mbps. The audio is always recorded in stereo at 256Kbps bitrate.

is it possible to get a good hyperlapse of a sunset with the S9plus? If so, what settings would you use? Thank you!

@BrentHall

5 жыл бұрын

That depends on your definition of "good." Sunsets are hard because there's so much dynamic range, even with mirrorless and dslrs it can tricky to capture a good sunset. I usually use some sort of nd grad filters or do hdr, but you can't really do that with phones. You can capture it with the hyperlapse mode, but you'll likely have either really blown out highlights or completely dark and silhouetted foreground objects. There's also no exposure controls in the hyperlapse mode in the S9 plus, so you'll likely have to rely on it's auto features. If it's all you have though, I definitely wouldn't let any of that stop you from giving it a go. I do have a video about different ways of doing timelapses with phones as well, if you're interested: kzread.info/dash/bejne/dmp9uLmtotKvoqw.html

Overall, I'm quite happy with my Samsung, especially as a phone experience, not just the camera.
