Anyone get Drama Mode to work on S5?

[Kel M]

I try a bunch of times and only get best picture to work. Samsung listen, next time let us do the selection and not the phone. Anyone knows any apps that do these effects but not this complicated?

I was really pissed too because at first I was able to use drama shot and panning shot under "shot & more" mode but after that, it was impossible. Then after several days of figuring it out, I got it. This is what you have to do: After choosing the Shot & more mode, tap the subject or object you want to focus on, i.e. the person or thing that's about to move. Then tap shoot/capture just as the subject/object moves while keeping your hands still. Then that's it. Hope that helps.

I'll have to give this a shot today if the weather every clears up! Everything else I've tried hasn't been successful.

Has anyone figured this out yet? I'm so mad. I feel ripped off. Drama shot was one of the main reasons I bought the S5. I thought it would be improved on the S5, not unusable. Is this something that can be fixed with an update? If not I might just take a loss and trade for a S4. This sucks.

Anyone still having an issue with this. Found the solution to it after hours of figuring it out.

Just here to help anybody else that was struggling with this like i was...

The phone automatically picks the choices for best shot. I was trying to use drama shot while watching my daughter during gymnastics and I was too far away. The next day my kids were horsing around inside and i was easily able to get the drama shots i wanted. It all depends on closeness to the camera and if anything else is moving in your frame.

Hope this helps!
