That old saying about the best camera is the one on you. I've noticed that almost all of my image captures are on cellphones. Although my Galaxy Note 10+ is still functional, the advancements in technology and the fact that even AI for photography is so good, I'm now in the camp. I appreciate the tutorial you've provided. If I weren't into photography and stumbled upon your site, you did an excellent job in explaining the various settings!

If it is, how do you sync the audio and video?

No complete walkthroughs like this though, since it's basically the same. The only real differences are the extra bit depth for the images in Expert RAW and the astro mode, everything else is the same as pro mode.

    10 ай бұрын

    I've definitely talked about it in some other recent phone videos. Don't remember exactly which ones. I think I talked about it in the S23 milky way video. Personally, I prefer to just use pro mode, have it set to raw + jpeg, and usually have the pro mode settings set to auto, unless I'm setting up a specific shot that requires some effort, like long exposure waterfalls or astro stuff. I think in general, pro mode does better for most stuff, unless you just need the astro or multiple exposure modes in expert raw (I did a recent video on that too). Pro mode has less lag, and the image quality difference is negligible for most, save the hard core pixel peepers.

Why is that? I suspect there is so much processing to cleanup the noise created from the high megapixels, what are your thoughts?

    Hello Brent, Thank you for introducing the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and Pro mode. I am always fascinated by the possibilities that modern smartphones offer. Sometimes I wonder why I still use a camera for landscape photography or night photography and sometimes also for macro photography. It definitely makes sense to me as I'm still using the old Galaxy S8. For the preparation to an phototripp, to get an overview about the area where I would like arroung is the S8 okay. I'm wondering whether the dynamic range will be the same as in a full frame camera. I would think it won't be the same dynamic range. But I could be wrong about my lack of experience with these modern smartphones. Gretings from Uwe Currently in Sri Lanka

    Enjoyed your video and have subsequently subscribed. I have the s23 Ultra and am using it to shoot underwater while it's housed in a Divevolk Seatouch 4 Max underwater housing. I'm having difficulty trying to figure out how to set my white balance while underwater. I'm thinking about buying a waterproof white/gray card and then holding it in front of my s23 Ultra while underwater, and look to see what Kelvin Temperature the "AUTO" white balance is showing and then switching my phone over to "MANUAL white balance (putting in whatever Kelvin value was showing while it was on AUTO). Does this sound like a feasible solution to determining underwater white balance, or am I misunderstanding how Auto & Manual white balances work with one another?

Could you set a well graduated photo as a filter so that the colors don't look so unrealistic?

    All digital stabilizers will crop into the frame in order to stabilize it. How much it crops in depends on the level of smoothness it's creating. It's also usually more noticeable on longer focal lengths as there's typically more camera shake with them.

    It affects the entire exposure. By placing it on spot metering, whatever you have the spot on will be prioritized for "proper" exposure, and the rest will likely be greatly over-exposed. This is good for small, backlit subjects, but will likely blow the rest of the image out, or at least overexpose it more than you might want.

    Is there any reason (other than Astro and ND), to use Expert RAW over using Pro Raw? From what I've experienced, the expert is over processed and too sharp, while Pro is a tiny bit softer yet more accurate colourwise in their RAW takes. Does the higher bit rate in Expert make much difference to want to favor that mode overall?

    Do you recommend 3:4 in pro mode to get the best or automatic mode too.I prefered 16:9 in automatic because it simply looked better on the screen...

    It just depends on what you want. If you need the highest image quality possible, then the 3:4 is technically it, since that's actual sensor size. So all other modes are cropped into that, including eh full screen and 16:9 modes. In real world use, you may or may not be able to even notice too much of any image quality degradation in those other cropped modes though.

    I'd recommend it because there are things that make it worth the your S22 U can get you a good trade-in offer. Battery life improvement, performance is much better, cameras get some upgrades, some useful features, and the overall experience is great. The S24 series are supposed to come with Exynos 2400, so if you're not a fan of Exynos, this is something to think about. I'd upgrade if you can get a good price. You can't go wrong with any S23 model. They all are such strong phones and suit the tasks that the average person will want done. Hope this helps! I have an A13 and am upgrading to an S23 model in the summertime as well!

    Everybody's different, and everyone's got their own opinions based on their own experiences, budgets, and lifestyles, you know? As for me personally, I wouldn't have upgraded if it weren't for needing to make videos about it for this channel. For me, it wasn't worth the extra money, and while there are plenty of moderate upgraded features, they aren't enough for me to really notice or care in my everyday use, and certainly not for my mobile photography, but again, that's just my own use case and experience. I'll be paying off this S23 Ultra for another 3 years now, and for me, that really sucks.

  • @BrentHall

    Theoretically, yes, as it supposedly does offer a fractional increase in bit-depth, but in my experience there's no perceptible editing difference between expert raw images and regular pro mode raw images, in fact, I rather prefer and recommend pro mode over expert raw these because of the issues Samsung has created by wrapping their expert raw dng files up in a jpeg exterior. It has ruined expert raw for me and as of right now, pro mode is much better. I made a whole other video about it too, if you want to know more specifics about it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hoKIm8mdo5DVkaQ.html&ab_channel=BrentHall

    I noticed that the new Lightroom AI denoise algorithm doesn't work with this phone's recent DNG files. I went back to RAW photos I shot in December, and guess what? Those RAW photos can be denoised by the new LR algorithm! After digging deeper, I realised that something happend in between. Most likely, a firmware update screwed things up. When analysing the EXIF data, we can clearly see that the new DNGs are not uncompressed RAW anymore, but Linear RAW with embedded JPEG compression. This explains why LR AI Denoise doesn't work on these files anymore I suspect that the problem started sometimes in April, when Expert RAW was added as an option inside the default camera app, in Pro mode. Expert RAW always had these linear RAW files (since these are HDR DNGs), and I suspect that when the two things were combined, the Expert RAW DNG generating algoritm replaced the original RAW algorithm. Not good. Also, as a side note: The x3 and x10 sensors have 10Mpix native resolution (3648 x 2736), but the outputs of Expert RAW and the regular camera app in photo mode are 12Mpix (4000 x 3000)! So Expert RAW is upscaling the output of the x3 and x10 cameras. This is not what RAW files are supposed to do. It only confirms that the DNG is in fact a JPEG file in a DNG container.

    @mh7711 No. On the contrary. I just got my new S24 Ultra, and it has the same problem with JPEG compression in a DNG container when shooting in PRO mode. There is a change for Expert RAW. It's still using compression, but the exif tool is labeling as "Unknown (52546)". I suspect it's still a lossy compression. The bad news is that Open Camera and Lightoom mobile, which are able to do uncompressed RAW, are not working with S24U. The output of the main camera is scrabled.

The Pro mode jpgs look OK but it is not that what I want.i hope they will fix the modes in further updates.

    idk why your pro mode images are that small. Are you looking at the dngs or the jpegs from pro mode, because it puts out both if you have it set that way. My pro mode dngs are all 30-40mb. Also, pro mode images always appear softer than the same jpeg because the phone edits the image and adds things like saturation, contrast, and sharpening, all of which add perceived sharpness to an image, and pro mode dngs are just the raw files with no in-camera editing or compression. So you'll have to do a bit of editing work to make them look better.

    If you're trying to get smooth water shots, then you need a slow shutter speed, and usually the lowest iso you can get. To do that during the day when it's bright, you'll have to have an nd filter. If you don't want to have to use an nd filter then you can still do it, but you'll have to wait until it's darker outside so there's not so much ambient light.
