Camera Issue - Auto enhancing ruining photos

[Members_1r7NSAT]

Hi there, I have an A52 and every photo I take has this weird effect in the background, almost like some sort of AI/auto enhance feature which distorts, blurs, and ruins the image with a strange effect. Please see attached screenshots. You can even see where it's like it's tried to use a clone stamp tool and accidentally repeated part of a tree in the air? It's really bizarre. They look fine zoomed out but as soon as you zoom in even a little bit, the whole photo is messed up.

I've turned off scene optimiser and it still has this same problem with every photo. It's ruining all my photos! Any advice greatly appreciated, thanks.

It's most likely intelligent optimisation, not scene optimiser. It's in the same settings page as scene optimiser, set it to minimum and see if it helps

I've looked in my camera settings and don't have a setting for Intelligent Optimisation, only Scene Optimiser (which is toggled off), unfortunately!

Fair enough, not sure if this will work but you could try this https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.android.app.cameraassistant

It's extra camera controls by samsung. Issue is, it might not support your device. Though if it lets you install it, could help.

Oh also, you could download "open camera" if you really can't fix it and it's an issue. Should bypass samsung processing, it's just a little complex

Neither of those work either after a short bit of testing 😞

It seems bizarre to me that there's auto optimisation features that ruin photos that I can't seem to turn off - my mobile from 6 years ago took better pics! 😂 Thanks for trying to help though, much appreciated
