S22 Ultra Camera Reviews

Does anyone not shoot a ton of dog photos of their dog?

Per Google Photos, I have more pics of my dogs than I do of my kids LOL

Ok I'll contribute.

A couple of the YouTubers mention that Samsung added a little more contrast for detail. Got my fingers crossed.

Ok I'll contribute.

We need a dog photo thread. That's a pretty (or handsome) dog.

The first 2 look horrible IMO, but the last one looks OK.
Edit - going to the actual Twitter post, the first 2 look much better for some reason.

Except the back half of the dog which is moving and blurry. The same as it was on the S21U. Although the portrait mode exacerbated that.

We do have a "Show Us Your Pets" thread that gets a lot of doggo posts!

The AC review is not promising for moving subjects, still inconclusive for pets though.

Here is my dog, poor light indoors Pixel 6 Pro.

He notes shutter lag :-\ We'll see if anyone else has same comments. Software updates usually come in pretty quick and often at launch to fix these issues.

Good to see this getting mentioned by reviewers! Hopefully it'll start getting more exposure and Sammy will address it.

Reading through the comments on that video and this user has a possible work around??

I guess a person could always use the 8K video and extract a blurry free photo while sitting down reviewing the video. One way for those who normally take photos of fast moving items.

Dxomark have a few things to say about the slow autofocus (Exynos version), just go to the autofocus part in the test. Not only is it slow, but the middle image is overexposed, dunno why.

Right now I'm pretty sure I won't get the S22, there's no chance I'd go back to a slow camera. Maybe the FE version will bring something else.

Mmm, this is not looking good for the camera so far.

 

[anon(40376)]

For those who order a phone just for the cameras, maybe this is a problem maybe not. For taking photos of running dogs, kids, people, cars; I can see why this could be a problem. However, for the higher number of people who use these cameras, for static shots; I don't see a problem. So for those with the problem, get a Pixel, then you only have to worry about other problems; as so reported on the pixel forum here and on reddit, and many other places.
Some of us, as stated earlier, want a complete package and some have accepted that NO phone offered in this day-and-age offers a package that everyone will like. Never will happen.

Well I could live with it if there was a camera mode preventing this permanently, even with some kind of compromise, but having to change every time I open the camera is not ideal.

I have yet to see an end user sharing their experience about shutter or autofocus speed.
