Has anyone had a chance to test out the s24 ultra cameras?

[Haytch]

So I've been looking at some videos and I'm getting mixed feedback. Some are saying the 10x zoom isn't as good as the optical one in the s23.

Has anyone tested out the zoom and does the 10x zoom look worse now? 

Also how does 4k 120fps look?

Yes

You can see if they can answer any questions.

From photos seen online it seems to blow the highlights out.
Up to 30x seems better than the s23 ultra but afterwards it's not so good.


Then again it's probably an early software.


Samsung usually releases at least two big camera patches after launch which usually fix issues like these.

I am more interested in portrait shots on the 5x more then anything. I hope the bokeh will be delicious.

Apparently 4k is the best one so far. 8k not so much but then how many people have 8k tv's.

you just have to see for yourself, i personally think they a lot of the pictures online are quite good, but each to their own

I was / am sceptical about changing the 10x, but it's true the gap between 3x optical and 10x is massive and there is a big quality gap inbetween which this 5x addresses.

Regarding beyond 10x, I never zoom in-between any lens for photos as the quality will not be optimum. Providing this new camera system is at least equivalent to the optical 10x, having better quality IN-BETWEEN 5x > 10x should be good.

I observed s23 ultra and s24 ultra photos are same. Some differences are

1. S23 ultra takes good portait photos(1x to 3x) with good color and s24 ultra need software update.

2. Zoom sometimes better on s24 ultra with too much contrast.
