S8 plus bad vs Note 4 camera - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

Hey guys
since my wife broke her Note1 I was kind if happy to trade my N4 against a S8plus. But I am so disappointed with the camera which is one of the reason for me to spend so much money.
The raw is kind of ok.
But in+0 EV pictures are way too dark I think.
The jpg resolution seems awful with artifacts - I dont recall this from the Note 4.
What especially drives me crazy is that the app reduces the shutter speed in a way it is not possible to take sharp pics of stationary objects let alone moving ones. Its like only 20-30perc seem keepers.
Does anybody know how to force the app to not go beyond like 1/30h? If I use pro mode and set the shutter speed ISO looses automatic thus this mode is a joke. I cant set the ISO as well when shooting kids. The app also forgets the pro mode after closing it - so annoying.
I know I need to show examples but I just bought an office and dont have time atm. But maybe someone shares my dissappointment and maybe some guy/gal has a work around?

Seems strange you are having photo quality issues. Across the board the s8 camera gets great reviews. You tried using open camera for a bit more control of the photos?

Blurry camera images.

Is anyone having issues with the camera? When I pinch to zoom in, I find the camera not properly focusing. This seems to occur no matter if it on single shot, hdr, etc. Its not ALL photos, just moist of them. Used to have thunderbolt and did not experience this type of issue there. The reviews praised the s3 camera, so i am disappointed. Anyone have any advice? Thanks

Unfortunately I also am experiencing this same problem. I dont have a real solution but to use an alternative camera application, and hope it helps.
Try a diff gallery. I found sometimes the gallery will not focus in. Although sometimes I have found myself dissapointed in the camera. There are 2 different cameras in the s3 one is app lower quality.

You're not alone! The camera is almost always blurry for me, and sadly, bad enough for me to say this camera SUCKS. I really hope this is a firmware issue.
I've looked at the pictures on my computer as well, and they're just not nearly focused.
+1 on all of it for me
So let me get this straight:
While you're in camera mode, about to take a picture, and you pinch to zoom-in, the photo gets blurry?
Or are you talking about in the gallery when you pinch-to-zoom on a picture you've already taken?
If it's the former, I believe it's one of two things: 1) firmware issue, or 2) hardware issue. If it is indeed a hardware issue, you can probably get a replacement free of charge from Verizon.
If it's the latter, I think you just have to wait a few seconds for the phone to show you the high-res version instead of the low-quality blurry snapshot.
My sister has the same issue on her Galaxy Nexus. But I'm assuming that's not the case, since the blurriness usually goes away in a matter of seconds?
I've found the camera pretty crummy in anything but full-light settings. It's really frustrating.

That statement pretty much applies to any camera/phone.
One thing you guys might want to try is using the app "CameraFX"
CameraFX has a pretty cool feature that allows you to take a pic by voice activation. I find the camera phones are much harder to hold steady and take a clear shot than a real DC (& I'm a pro photographer). Using the voice activation allows you to hold the camera super steady & then just say a word like now or smile etc when you're ready to take the shot.
I have my camera set to take a shot with the volume button, but the voice activation is still easier to use IMHO.

This camera doesn't focus properly. Period. I'll do side-by-side shots with my Rezound and iPhone. The GS3 camera is woeful in anything but full, natural light.

I agree that the Rezound camera is better, I have three Rezounds & the camera is super (for a phone camera).
I really have not had any focusing issues with the G3 although I don't use it a whole lot because I usually have access to a real DC.

That's another issue entirely, the Nexus is notorious for having an atrociously bad camera.
+1, I have noticed that a lot of my pics are coming out blurry, I thought it was maybe because the camera was sensative to the slightest twitch and that I was maybe moving it mid shot.

I think it is to some extent, turn on anti-shake, but that doesn't totally fix it. It's pretty frustrating that this phone seems like a step backwards in terms of camera.

This miui camera works pretty well just install the apk no changes to permission needed. It does not use the ffc so use stock app for that.

I'm not talking about the camera quality, itself. I mean in the gallery, when you're looking through pictures you've already taken, the pictures are a bit blurry at first, but then clear up into the original (higher) resolution.

@OP: Are you sure the camera is focused?

It is the former. I tried camera 360 today and photos seemed ok. That app only alows 2x zoom. I was outdoors photographing dinosaurs in full sun. Perhaps i try another photo app, camera fx or something like that and see how it goes. Thank you for the reply. As I see I'm not the only one with this issue, I'm glad that we can discuss it and see what helps for us.
Camera Zoom FX as mentioned is a good alternative, for me I think the instant shutter makes it more blurry because you don't have any time to steady the camera after pressing the button. Camera Zoom has a slight lag. I would also try ProCapture, which I think does a better job than Camera Zoom but YMMV.

Camera quality

Hi folks
I've spent some time today playing around with Note 3 camera and I got mixed feelings.
It is clear that when there is light, the camera gets quite nice results but, what the hell is going on in interiors/low light?
Is it possible that my note N7000 gets sharper pictures in low light than the N9005?
I really hope this is a software issue, for your good Samsung
Use a different camera app. World of difference.

Could you please recomend one?
I use to have camera ICS+ in the N7000 because the volume buttons can be used as shooter button, quality was good too
Sure. For instance, Camera ZoomFX. Indoor under fluorescent looks much better.
Ucam is another. Not bad either.
Or Procapture, or FV5.
Stock Camera is horrible. It has no options to set the ISO, meaning that in low-light it automatically picks the highest settings, which has the most noise.

No experience with either. Which do you prefer and why? Thx.
That's odd. I and another owner also found the stock camera way worse than the n7000.
note 2 has more contrast and the photos don't seem washed out.
Also it focused faster.
Gonna try other apps.

As a photographer, I very much like the manual options in ProCapture. I still have not found anything that can match my dslr in terms of manual setting, but that comes closest.
Fv5 also has many of the settings I'm used to. It's quicker at saving the image, Procapture always needs time to process the shot, so for multiple pictures fv5 is better.
Shotcontrol is also a decent one.

That's great info, thanks.
Photography is a passion for me, too. I got rid of my last phone because of the camera. This one is very usable and I will be keeping my N3. I'll try both apps you suggested - already downloaded them - as soon as I can. Thanks, again!
Edit - Missed the third app you mentioned and have downloaded it now.

That's weird. On my stock N9005, when I open the camera and hit the menu button for camera options, I have the ISO settings menu, from which I can choose Auto, 100, 200, 400, or 800.

Oh, hello, they seem to have re-added them in the newest update. Well, that's a relief!
I noticed the same problems with the camera. Even took it back to the store to be sure it wasnt defective. I got way better pics with my Galaxy s 4
Have noticed if shooting in lots light with image stabilization on there is a lot of grading noise in a ring around the edges of the shoot.
The noise is not there with stabilization off.
Anyone else notice this

You should only be using image stabilization if shooting in very low light without using the flash.

on mj1 my camera sucked so bad indors you can't imagine, on mj2 even worst , faces all brushed
of course it is worst than n7000 .. I had one for almost 2 years besfore de mega 6.3 and the note3..
Just flash mj6 thru odin , its here on the forum , camera is corrected and better indoors than n7000
Fixed focus miss in low light
Fixed brushed look In low light
much sharper etc
Some samples in low light with smart stabilisation on off and compare to the iPhone 5 (the iPhone was focused on the darkest part of the scene to achieve a brighter picture)

Bad Camera Quality

Why is Samsung Galaxy Edge's Camera so bad? Can we flash some software for the camera?
No complaints for me. Works as well as any camera I ever saw. Can you post pictures of how bad your pics come out? This is the one phone for me besides my Note 2 that actually has a decent low light performance
What issues are you having? Mine is great!
I have S6edge and Note Edge. Note Edge camera is not as good as S6edge, but it is still awesome.

I only have problems with breathing... It annoys sometimes, but when it takes the pictures, the quality is good (but light years from what we should expect from this smartphone)

I'm sorry for the late reply. I've experimented a little with the camera and reset it back to default. The issue is when it takes a picture indoor even during the day with quite well-lit environments I can notice that there are a lot of noise and also when it is used to take pictures of faces or even skin it is somehow very reddish. I'm not a person that is very good at taking pictures or know a lot about cameras but this is a very obvious problem as I owned a few other phones including Xiaomi Mi 4i, Redmi Note 4G, Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S5 and others too where their camera does not have this kind of problem. Please advice.

Check and see how high the ISO is set to. If it's on auto, try setting it to a lower ISO setting. The pictures will be darker but less noise. Are you using the default camera app btw? Because for a long time, I was using the "DSLR" camera app since I preferred the interface but a few days ago, I decided to do a low light comparison between this app and the default one. Turns out, the DSLR looked darker and more reddish. I am now back on the default camera and it seems pretty good to me. I'm no expert but I am a photography enthusiast that regularly use a mirrorless camera.

Samy camera disapointing?

I dont know if other users agree with me but my old Nexus6P was way better on low light conditions. In outdoor situations at a sunny day there is no problem, with most phones but the S8+ has a really good camera but if i try to take a picture when the sun has set and the light is low the software makes the pictures really fuzzy. The faces are washed out (i am aware that the software is trying to reduce the noise) and its not that great at auto mode. I took great low light pictures with the manual mode and this is something missing on the nexus 6p and pixels but if i want to take a quick picture at low light i cant start setting up the manual mode i just want to take a quick photo. So at this point my question is, is there any way to install the google photo apk with the hdr+ mode? I dont really know if something like this would work or if its even possible, but i really miss the hdr+ from the google phone.
I attached some examples.
Photo 1 is S8+ selfie in low light
Photo 2 is N6P selfie in even lower light
Photo 3 is S8+ rear shooter in low light
Photo 4 is N6P rear shooter in lower light
Thank you everyone in advance
I also came from the 6p and gotta admit I was totally amazed with the 6p's camera in both low light and day time shooting. I still have not taken much pictures with my s8 plus yet, so I can't really compare the difference in an night out experience, but hope to soon. From around the house shooting the camera seems good, I want to say slightly better than the 6p in low light. I really like the zero shutter lag of the s8 though, even though I had the ZSL mod on the 6p. Your pictures do look pretty fuzzy and not clear on the s8 though. Probably a dumb question, but it's your camera lens clean?

Switch to manual mode and the playing field changes dramatically.
Never had the 6P but I have the Nexus6 and I must say for a phone going on 3 years old it still has a nice shooter (using an app called Manual Camera).
Semi pro skill set with photography here, never liked auto anything.
Your pictures look exactly like mine and I too am disappointed with the S8+ auto Camera shooting. I am coming from a LG G4 and my pictures were amazing on that camera. I would frame them people were shocked they were from a camera phone. My S8+ does great in bright sunny light, but in side/low lighting conditions the pictures are very washed out/lack detail.
I'm also feeling the same. The auto settings are so shonky, my LG G3 had better auto settings. When there's proper lighting it's crisp as anything, also with the flash. When it's low light like this, mine look exactly the same, it's like they have the skin smoothing on the selfie camera but for everything... Also!!!! I've noticed that there still seems to be a bit of grain / not so sharp even in light. I really do feel like my G3 produced better images. Haven't played with manual but like... I feel like I shouldn't have to. Auto should be banging!
I'd have to agree. My iPhone 7 plus beats this camera when it comes to quickness, ease of use, and consistency. Not too impressed.

as i said earlier the manual mode is better but you cant tell people or friends "wait let me set it up" so i can take 1 picture. the point of the auto mode is to take quick good picture.

Try taking the SAME shot with both phones. Can't say much looking at totally different shots. I do notice the S8+ tends to overexpose a little bit. So if you were shooting in the dark, it would try to get a brighter exposure resulting in a higher ISO and lower quality images.

Exactly trying to compare totally different pictures taken in different places under different conditions is pointless.
I had a 6P for a long time and it had the best camera of any nexus device by light years but just doesnt compare to the S8 camera.
I had a note 5 at the same time as the 6P and the note 5 camera eas better than the 6P so....

As they aim to replace the traditional point-and-shoot camera, it would be nice to have similar pre-set manual mode settings remembered. Then you could set up your perfect "in the pub with mates" manual settings and switch to it quickly without all the sillybuggers of camera phone manual mode faff.
Edit: As an afterthought, what you could do is utilise an app I use called SyncMe. What this does is automatically copy all new photos from my phone to a specified folder on my NAS every day when I connect to my home network and plug in a charger. You simply set the phone to take RAW, and add a filter to this rule to MOVE (instead of copy) any RAW file extensions so your phone doesn't fill up.
Then, if you ever find yourself wanting a nice photo of a night out but the Jpeg is bad, you can hop onto your network and find the RAW equivalent and get editing.
Use pro mode for low light. The higher the iso, the brighter the picture but will leave your photo more grainy.
The lower the shutter speed, the brighter your photo but will require a steady hand or a tripod, and a still target.
Combine these with some editing.

I've also come from IPhone 7+ and that camera seemed so good compared to this but the s7edge camera seemed the best I've seen but this doesn't seem as good as them
In poor lighting so everyone will take pictures, in general a normal camera

This is what I get Everytime I try to take a shot indoor. Little movement and the photo comes out very blurry. I don't get why reviewers didn't notice this. Wasn't getting this result in the 6P.

Have you tried to use Tracking AF? Also try lock the focus on the subject and then let it move and take the picture and see if its still blurry not sure but you might have defective camera sensor

Overprocessing of camera

Merry Christmas everybody!
I've noticed that with the last update, P20 camera processes the pictures even more than before, especially outdoors in the shade or with overcast. Colors sometimes look like friggin pastel paintings, it looks too over processed and saturated. Does everyone feel the same way with the camera? Which app do you use that doesn't use Huawei's outrageous processing algorithm?
Thanks!
I've stopped the AI in the original camera mode several months ago, because the green in the nature had been any more natural.

I don't even have AI activated and still the processing algorithm is, on many pictures, exaggerated to say the least.
Lol i find it amazing that nobody else notices this feature with the P20 camera
Anyway, the P20 is still a great photography phone
Yes it is, but it still doesn't change the fact that it sometimes it ridiculously over-saturates colours. Anyway, thanks for all the insightful replies, smh
If you use pro mode the processing seems to lessen a bit, imo. Another option is to use pro mode, capture raw, and process it yourself afterwards.
Honestly some of the photos that came out of the stock camera mode were ridiculous (too much sharpening and saturation), but I was satisfied with pro mode. I don't bother with raw anymore though. Processing it yourself is quite time consuming and each .dmg photo is around 20mb in size, if you care about storage. Fantastic camera, let down by Huawei's awful software and processing.

So if you simply switch to Pro Mode even if u don't fiddle with any setting, it processes the photo less? Ok, i will give it a try. I also sometimes use Open Camera and Bacon Camera which seems to lessen that over-processing but not by much.
Thanks for reply!
