Post Pictures Taken With Your Note 9

One thing to try when lighting is not great is to use Pro mode, select 1.5 aperture, auto shutter speed, and ISO of about 160. (these settings will stick for the next time you select Pro mode). I've found I get better results using these settings when lighting is not great and subject is relatively still. If there is a lot of motion you are better off with Auto mode or a higher ISO in Pro mode.

The Auto mode seems to not choose the 1.5 aperture unless light is really low. Also Auto mode tends to select a shutter speed that is too fast, in my opinion, but that is a design choice Samsung made that I understand. As a result of these, Auto mode will tend to have less detail in low light (assuming there is little motion in the image).
Thanks so much for the detailed advice!
 
After setting camera to max MPs and playing with some settings, I am seeing a difference (for the better).
Think I prefer to keep scene optimizer and Tracking AF off... //uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180906/f62c0b5082a80cc8a50506dff258f2a0.jpg//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180906/05b3cc960e2e5b06888c5733f4ad7ec5.jpg

Edit: don't ask me why I insist on taking pics of the back of my dog's head LOL

At least we can see his fur this time like with the Pixel... phew, you had us worried!
 
These are a few of the toys I get to work around every day. The reds are typically very difficult to reproduce, but the Note 9 has done a very good job here. All are shot in Auto mode and the lighting is LED with added sky light panels. However, it was very cloudy, so mostly LED. I was in a bit of a rush today but I'll try to get a few more artistic shots when I have more time. No post processing.

I went out this morning to play around with the filters and was impressed with a few. I think I will have to experiment with them a bit more under different conditions.
