The S22 Camera Updates Will Make You A Pro Photographer

October 31, 2022 Off By Rowena Cletus

With the latest updated version of the Expert RAW app and a brand new app called Camera Assistant, you’ll be able to capture professional-looking shots.

Shot with Astrophoto in Expert RAW Mode
By adding Astrophoto to the S22, the Expert RAW enhances the already robust night photography capabilities of the camera. Stargazers and outdoor enthusiasts can now take clear and beautiful photos of constellations and dark sky activity with this new feature.

The Sky guide can be used to locate constellations, solar systems, groups of stars, and nebulae. By using AI segmentation technology and multi-frame processing, your camera will capture photos over a set period of time-based on the movements of celestial bodies. The result will be stunning photos of stars that look like they were taken with professional equipment.

You can use Overlay modes to combine several images into one stunning shot if you enjoy exploring your artistic side with the Multiple exposures feature. Alternatively, you can experiment with superimposing several images over each other to create amazing abstract photos.

To access the beta version of Astrophoto and Multiple exposures, go to the Special Photo options in the Settings menu of Expert RAW.

Capture the way you want to seize the moment
A camera that gives you creative control is essential for every avid photographer. To fully customize your shooting experience, you can choose which automated features you want to use with the new Camera Assistant app.

This app is available on Samsung’s Galaxy Store or on Good Lock’s app store. In your native camera app, you can access the Camera Assistant menu under Camera Settings by clicking on the app icon, navigating to the Good Lock app or clicking the icon of the app once it is installed.

Camera Assistant can switch off features such as auto-lens switching, auto-high dynamic range, and faster shutter. After the timer ends, you will also have more options, such as choosing how many pictures you want to take.

Here are the key features;

* Auto HDR: If you want to get atmospheric pictures without HDR effect, you can now simply turn it off.

* Soften pictures: You can turn on this feature to smooth out the sharp edges and textures of your photos.

* Auto lens switching: Now you can turn off the Auto lens switching feature, which automatically switches camera lenses in dark environments or as you move closer to the object you are shooting. For instance, if you want to keep using the telephoto lens instead of the wide lens to take a picture of the object closer to you, you can simply turn it off in the menu.

* Video recording in Photo mode: You can now turn off this feature, which allows you to take a video clip by long-pressing the button in Photo mode, preventing you from accidentally recording a video.

* Number of pictures after timer: You could already automatically snap several photos in quick succession after the timer count. Now, you can also choose how many photos are taken (1, 3, 5 or 7 photos).

* Faster shutter: This mode allows you to take up to seven pictures in a second. This is very useful when taking pictures of moving objects.
