Does anyone know the trick to getting rid of the post-processing picturing refining in the camera app on S23+ right now? Besides the workaround of taking a screenshot before the picture is ruined... At this point I'm ready to make my next phone a dumbphone and just spend the extra money on a real professional camera.
After reading some other posts, the fixes haven't worked for me. I've tried changing the settings under 'Intelligent Optimization' to minimum, and turning off 'Scene Optimizer.' But, it still does this awful post-processing thing. I don't see anything in the Samsung gallery, camera app, or Samsung store to give me more choices here. I wish there was a straightforward 'TURN OFF AI POST PROCESSING' but, no. Apparently, we're not allowed to opt out of this.
The only time it seems to turn off is when my phone battery is almost dead.
Supposedly some people have fixed this on S23 Pro? Unfortunately, I don't seem to have the same options as others in the camera app as I have the S23+.
I also tried downloading the 'Expert RAW' Samsung camera app, and even turning off ALL of the optimization and HDR settings, it STILL does this picture ruining 'optimization.'
My pictures look great for 5 seconds! And then become awful and blurry, and whatever I caught in the photo is gone. For example: If someone in smiling in the photo at first, then the AI changes it to them with their eyes closed and mouth closed. Why?! This is absolutely the worst feature of the camera and it was so much better when this AI enhancement didn't exist. It seems everyone is also complaining about this, so I'm wondering why this was ever added.
Anyone who takes photos of a subject in motion knows that capturing at the perfect second is key for a great photo, and the app is ruining that. I already take GREAT and WELL-TIMED pictures without any AI assistance. I bought this phone for the great camera, and it has gotten worse with every update. Unfortunately I don't know of any other brands, either, that haven't added stupid enhanced AI stuff.
For the most part I am forced to quickly take a screenshot of the photo before it gets ruined. This is awful, I can't describe how annoying it is. And it's an insult that Samsung doesn't even allow us to revert the photo to pre-processing. Desperately hoping that Samsung gets rid of this utterly broken garbage, the camera was so much better when this didn't exist. (p.s., HEY, SAMSUNG, REMOVE THIS FORCED AI POST PROCESSING FEATURE! IT'S A TOTAL FAILURE!)
If anyone has any ideas, please help.
