S24 ultra Camera..

[Ssk1]

I am sooo gutted about the S24 Ultra, the camera is awful, the zoom is blurry and plus the quality is disastrous. 

Look at the picture of the moon on the camera, how can u even say this is the best Camera phone. Taken on normal camera, on night mode and pro too to check the difference. It's absolutely awful 😖 I am so sad about it. I'm definitely not investing in Samsung next time. They just hype it up for sales and perform nothing, the apple camera is soooo much clearer and better 😫

If anyone has any specific setting to take good pics then plz share, I feel like I wasted soooo much money, there's not much difference in quality than other phones I have used previously.

I took this a few weeks ago on my S24 Ultra. Not too bad

What settings did u use? My zoom gets very blurry, and I can't get clear pics. My cameras focus is very bad it seems

That's a nice pic btw

If you zoom in to 100X, a little square appears in top right hand corner. Carefully and steadily capture the moon in the tiny square. The moon will then appear on your normal camera enlarged. Wait till you get a descent focus, and shoot. I never used any special settings.

Thanks, I have tried doing that too, but I don't get a clear pic. The focus is too bad.. it comes out super blurry.. I will try again and see if it works

Just reduce the zoom and keep hand steady. It can take a few secs to get it just right. Good luck

Think this was my best one. After you take it, remaster it. It makes quite a difference.

Thanks..

Hi @Ssk1 

That is exactly how it should look. It is the composition of the picture. The moon is just a super bright object in the a very dark frame. It will not be very different even when using a pro camera in automatic mode.

By the way, did you use flash? If yes, I would turn it off. One should never use flash on a night shot unless the object is near and within the distance of the flash. The same is true if there was a strong light near by. The phone will focus on the bright area of the picture.

If you want to take a picture of the moon. I would recommend a tripod, 100X zoom, and if possible use a second device as the shutter button. e.g. a watch or remote.

It is advisable to use a tripod when taking pictures with a large zoom, especially when the object is very far. Any tiny movement on the camera will represent a large movement for the object. A remote shutter button will help with any movement on the phone at the moment of taking the picture. Touching the screen to take the picture might add some movement moving the object out the frame.
