108mp images look like oil painting (s20 ultra)

[jevm]

Does anyone experience the situation, that when you do a 108mp photo, objects which are in big distance from you appear as oil painting at maximum magnification (not the zoom, but if you bring the shot to maximum size in image viewing software)

If we speak in a humorous way, yes. And if not, then for me it looks like a poor image processing algorithm. If you go to any of the press release/marketing page, you would see that this HM1 sensor lets you capture great amount of details, crop in, etc. But is it really so? I would not call above result a detailed one. 

Samsung could've at least make this blurring/smoothing optional or allow to capture in Pro mode or RAW. Then we would have choice how to deal with the detail/noise/distortions.

How far did you crop in?

[jevm]

Well, what I did is just increased the size of a photo till the maximum what is possible on the phone itself

Mine look the same.. When you zoom in really close it looks like painting

My 21s also does this. Very disappointing!

Samsung should release an update to fix/change this ridiculous effects!

Yep, my s22 ultra does this. Super annoying! I got it because it said it was one of the best cameras out there right now, especially for zoom. But I don't call this a good camera result. Looks like a very distorted Photoshop effect.
