Camera issue

[Whattttt]

The galaxy s24 ultra camera is amazing. However after taking pictures. The images are over- sharpened, softened too much, and with around 30x zoom the pictures look like they were made by an ai generator. Samsung said in the past they would fix the camera issues but no fix yet. Pictures on the s24 ultra get processed too much to the point were some of them look fake and unnatural. 

Video quality is great though. No issues there.

Hello @Whattttt 

Have you looked also at the setting in your camera in regards to optimisation. 

Launch Camera > Tap on the Settings Cog > Intelligent Optimisation > Choose Minimum.

I'd recommend you zoom in 5× and crop later for now, as you get the same image, just less over-sharpened and a less mushy mess.

5× is the highest optical zoom, aka, it uses the 111mm lens. You need to shoot in 50mp mode however.

I have but it made little difference. I still have the issues with most pictures looking fake and unnatural

Remember 30x is digital zoom don't expect miracles

On my s22 ultra 30x zoom looked way better. It didn't look like it was ai generated.

Probably just needs tuning which Samsung tends to do over many updates. I never go above 10x zoom anyway even older models looked poor

S22 has a 10x optical vs 5x on s24 ultra
