Question RAW Pictures dark in gallery - Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra

Hi everyone! I got myself a Galaxy S22U, very happy with it , but only have one issue : whenever I take a RAW picture through the Expert RAW app the pic it shows in the gallery (the raw version) is way darker than it normally is.
When added to Lightroom, the RAW shows up as it is.
Any workaround for this ? I have attached pictures below so you can see what I mean by that.

Sounds like Gallery app needs to be be updated

The Gallery app and Lightroom have different rendering algorithms; meaning they will render an image slightly different. If you were look at the image from a third image editing app, you'd get a another different rendering and it would look different than the other two.
Nice shot though.

Other Camera Software?

Hi guys!
I really enjoy the X10 camera, but I think that jpeg compression is too high. I was comparing images captured with Snap Photo and with the bundled camera software to show you how Snap Photo retains a lot more detail, even their maximum resolution it is lot smaller than 8MP. But today I not being able to take pictures larger than 640x480, probably a bug! =\
Anyway, somebody knows a camera software that uses the entire 8mp camera and has better compression settings than original camera software?
If I root my X10, there is a chance to change those compression settings?

Just downloaded the demo version of vignette.. it's reet proper bo I tell thee... Hee. Hee. Shamon..
+1 for Vignette! Its worth the $4 or whatever it is. Even just for the flash support.
Vignette all the way.
reasons being.
Flash Support ON/OFF/AUTO
lower compression photos between 3.5mb and 8mb
(meaning more info in the photos for blown up prints and editing)
higher DPI (original S.E. camra app 72dpi, vignette 96dpi) meaning deeper better images
and many many effects.
although i thought the processing time for photos was annoying but you can just take photos and lock ur phone and it will finish up in sleep mode.
definitely worth the money.
examples of photos taken with vignette, not retouched, just using vignette setting and effects and original size

How do you used the x10's full 8mp on Vignette, it seems to only go up to 3.1mp?
Thanks
If you have the latest version, 2010-07-06.4, there's a button on the screen that gives you instant access, where the largest file size under JPEG file settings is listed as "X - 8.0 megapixels".
Older versions only go up to 3.1MP.
Ok thanks, ill purchase an update.

Like somebody else said... if you take picture of rocks ... yes, true.
For anything else is too slow. Till it saves the first image the moment is gone.

[Q] Gallery Images Render Very Slow?

I notice full 2560 width images render very slow on the 12.2 in the gallery app.
They 1st appear at a very low resolution then slowly start sharpening.
Is this a 12.2 issue , gallery issue ? Any image viewer apps that show images instantly in full Res?
Here's a link to some 2560 width test images if you want to save and check. ..

http://members.shaw.ca/JVPhoto/TestImages/2560x1600/2560RGBWhitecrop.png
Both test images show instantaneously in Galley on my Note Pro. (Ditto other high res images I'm using as desktops).
I would try clearing the cache in the gallery app. Also, are you loading images from an SD card or internal memory?
Otherwise I would recommend QuickPic. The first thing I do with any device is replace gallery with QP. Its much better. (Also I hate that gallery wants to display every random image on the device in its own directory, so its always a big mess, whereas with QuickPic you can easily exclude entire directory paths and only see relevant media directories.) Plus in general, its faster.
I notice rendering taking place when viewing my high resolution pictures such as those taken by my dslr. The image pops up instantaneously but sharpens gradually from top to bottom, left to right.

Same result with quick pic.
Took a screen shot with home+power , image renders very slow as muzzy996 mentions in both gallery and Quick pic?
Hmmm...
Yeah I see it with screencaps, same as described. Now I notice it on other photos as well, but less extreme and faster to fully render. I haven't tried DSLR photos yet.
I notice the same effect on my Note 3, but I have to look close to really notice it.
Went to a local store tried taking / viewing Home+Power screen shots on all current Samsung tablet models.
All show the same very slow rendering of images. That was the Note 12.2, Note 2014 10.1, TabPro 8.4 and 10.1.
Tried the same on an Asus tablet and iPad air both render images instantly.
It's not just the gallery app, as photos and even quickpic show the same lag .
Only workaround I found is to view images in a browser, file:///storage/emulated/0/dcim/
I'm surprised this is not a widely mentioned concern?
My gallery renders images (internal memory and SD card) incredibly slowly as well. The interface also becomes unresponsive. I hope they have a software update in the works. This shouldn't be the case with a $750 tablet.
I'm not holding my breath for a software fix for this. Even the gallery app on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 running ICS (Android 4.0.4) has the same issue.

Just found an app that loads full 2560 width images quickly...
It's called Photo Gallery by pickwick santa.
Has some ads but when it works looks interesting.
If anyone finds any replacement gallery apps that display full res images fast please post...
Just Pictures displays really fast.
I also like that it excludes directories easily as well.

Thanks, missed that, had looked at setting in full screen mode.
Looks like a nice app.
Couple small things ...
Noticed pinch zoom does not work?
Does not seem to be a way to show images at the pixel level if they are smaller or larger than 2560 wide?

Yes this is unbelievable. My brother and I both do a lot of photography. He likes Apple stuff, I don't. But what pisses me off is that his iPad goes immediately to the pictures. My Samsung Note Pro 12.2, with a lot of pictures and albums, some internal some on SD, has a black screen for 20 SECONDS before pictures show up after opening the gallery.
Yeah, nice hardware. Now please, some clever software.
Use Quickpic. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder
Nobody in their right mind voluntarily uses the Stock Gallery with more than 50 High Def images. I'm a photographer, just opening stock gallery is enough to freeze the entire device. Quickpic has no such issues. (And has a lot more features. And the option to exclude folder.)

It appears that you are right. I accidentally assumed that the stock stuff on this pricey thing was gonna be fine. I will install the other apps mentioned in this thread and try them out.
What I do like tho, not as a photographer, but as a consumer, is the facebook/flickr/social albums in the stock gallery. If only they had one clever developer that knew how to actually pre-cache the albums.

Camera color correction settings

Hello,
Today i purchased a Google Pixel 2 XL 64GB model. I was a proud owner of the Google Pixel XL.
There is one thing bugging me on the 2 XL. Whenever i take photos using the stock camera app with the front facing camera the lighting corrects in such a weird way so photos look really weird.
This also happens with other apps like Snapchat and Instagram.
Does anyone know if i can turn off color correction for just the camera or something?
Thanks in advance!
Please upload an example of your issue.

Please see the YouTube link below - I believe they address the issue of pics taken vs. pics viewed via phone display vs. pics viewed via Instagram/Snapchat. This critique is towards the end of video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O46BgKsE148
Color correction
The video didnt come close to the actual problem im having.
For example when i try to make a selfie using snapchat or instagram, before i take the picture my face has pale natural color which is perfect. when i took the picture and look it up in my Photo gallery it just looks awful.
My skin color turned greyish. This has nothing to do with the lighting in the area im in. Ive tried many different areas when taking pictures and they all result in the same weird greyish color
Pics or it didn't happen...
There is some known issue's with Pixel 2 and will be fixed by releasing patch and this would be a permanent solution.
Take a picture with hdr+ off and see if there any difference.
Here are some examples
This one is a picture before it has actually been taken, so its a preview
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1C_AJVL93j52oSQ-5N9bIk2fvW4cuMqZOYQ
This is the actual saved picture
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1G2KVE_I0oeCKC9lp4hNHzo6YfhhWlshing
As you can see it has some difference and the saved picture just looks worse.
Another example.

Did you reboot? This is, I think, the way it works.
The Visual Core you enabled doesn't work for the viewfinder preview in non-stock-camera apps, and I'm not sure it ever will.
Either turn hdr off in these apps if you prefer the blown-out look, or use the stock app and add to instagram app

I have no idea how to turn off hdr off for specified apps like instagram or snapchat
I honestly don't see the issue in your samples. The only thing I noticed is that you're using snap chat which takes terrible low resolution photos. That night be one reason why the image looks so bad.
its a problem of snapchat, try taking pic in instagram with pixel core on , instagram, facebook,twitter take awesome photos but snapchat its a trash

Poor images/pictures quality

Hi everybody
Do you have the same issue like me: sometimes the rendering or images processing is too bad on my mi note 10...i mean it's like a little blur effect and poor quality
Not on images taken by the camera but images and pictures like wallpapers downloaded, images on internet sites, twitter, Facebook etc...
IS it a known issue or just my device
Mi note 10 global 11.0.12
I dont really get what exactly is your problem. I can download picture and quality is just fine.

That's an issue with the quality of the picture itself, not the phone. Facebook had the worse picture quality out there
can you go to google, download any full HD wallpaper and put it here ?

black & white photography

hi,
is there a way to enable taking pictures in b&w?
thanks!
No need. Post editing just kill the saturation. Gray scale is preserved.
Shooting it as a raw file will yield better results after post editing.

what do you mean " post editing"?
i just want to have the option to shoot in b&w in apps like _open camera_
The built in camera app doesn't do it. Lots of third party camera apps in the store do. Or you can use an image editor after taking a colour photo to make it black and white. Google Photos can remove saturation or use one of several filters.

Snapseed can do it post editing. There are simpler tools if you just want to kill the saturation.
Being able to adjust the contrast curve be nice... When editing color images I normally kill the saturation to initially dial in the contrast curve using just the grey scale ie a b&w image, then dial up the saturation to the best level.
It's really not a big deal...
