(Galaxy S23 Ultra) is the largest and most expensive phone in the (Galaxy S23) lineup that Samsung announced at its annual (Samsung Unpacked) event, and the company devoted most of its conference to talking about it because it contains the most advanced phones. Professional camera system.
Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is not the first phone with a 200MP sensor in the main camera, as we saw in some phones launched last year such as the Mi 12T Pro and Motorola Edge 30 Ultra, but these are the first phones to use Samsung's own sensor (ISOCELL HP2), which makes It makes it interesting that Samsung is one of the biggest companies in the Computational photography.
Computational photography is used in digital cameras, especially smartphones, to improve imaging capabilities by automating settings. It helps improve image sharpness by reducing motion blur, increasing simulated depth, and using image processing algorithms to improve color, highlight range, and contrast.
What are the specifications of the Galaxy S23 Ultra camera?
The phone is equipped with quad rear cameras, supports 100x digital zoom, supports fast auto focus, supports Super HDR technology, and other features that we will mention in this article.
Here are the Galaxy S23 Ultra camera specifications:
- Primary lens: 200 megapixels, f / 1.7 lens slot, and an angle of 85 degrees.
- The ultra-wide lens: 12 megapixels, f / 2.2 lens slot, and an angle of 120 degrees.
- Telephoto telephoto lens: 10 megapixels, f / 2.4 lens slot, and supports optical zoom at a rate of 3 times.
- Telephoto lens 2: 10 megapixels, f / 4.9 lens slot, and supports 10 times optical zoom.
- front camera: single-lens; With a resolution of 12 megapixels, with an f / 2.2 lens, and an angle of 80 degrees, through which you can record video clips with a resolution of (4K).
- Video shooting: 8K resolution at 30 frames per second, 4K resolution at 60 frames per second, and 1080p resolution at 240 frames per second.
Here are the highlights of the Galaxy S23 Ultra camera innovations:
1- Improved video recording:
If there is one message that Samsung wants to convey at this year's annual event, it is that the phone (Galaxy S23 Ultra) has a strong ability to shoot videos with a very high level of professionalism. So I showed short clips from films by Hollywood directors (Ridley Scott) shot entirely on the camera (Galaxy S). 23 Ultra).
For the (Galaxy S23) phone, Samsung has boosted image processing performance by more than 20%, so the phone supports all S23 series phones to record 8K video at 30 frames per second instead of being limited to 24 frames per second in the latest phones of the year.
But thanks to the wide-angle lens and improved image quality over last year's version, the S23 Ultra's 8K night shots are even better and smoother.
The phone also supports 4K video recording at 60fps. Thanks to the wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lenses along with the application of Super HDR technology, you can get dynamic and more vibrant videos from the (Galaxy S22 Ultra) phone.
Super HDR is also applied to time-lapse photography and portrait mode, and the improved AI segmentation technology can more accurately represent edges and blur effects, allowing you to shoot portrait videos with natural effects based on distance.
2- Improving low-light photography:
Samsung has improved low light and night photography on the Galaxy S23 Ultra. With a new 200MP adaptive pixel sensor, the phone's main camera can combine 16 pixels into a single larger pixel to increase the amount of light the camera captures for brighter, more detailed shots in low light.
Visual issues that negatively affect low-light images are also corrected with a new AI-assisted image signal processing algorithm to improve detail and audio.
And it allows (Galaxy S23 Ultra) to double the angle of the optical image stabilizer (OIS) in all directions for better low-light videos with less noise; Situations that result in blurry images, for example b. when crossing rough terrain.
Some new image processing algorithms perform multi-frame processing in low-light conditions to remove noise in multi-frame videos in real time.
3- New astrophotography mode:
Samsung introduced a new mode called (Astro Hyperlapse) in the camera application (Galaxy S23 Ultra), the improved resolution of the main camera and the optical image allow you to capture the Milky Way and moving stars without special equipment, stabilization of footage (OIS) in addition to image processing.
This new mode enables photographers to create stunning star-tracking videos with up to 300x zoom and time-lapse photography.
4- The new features of the Expert RAW application:
In early 2022, Samsung launched Expert RAW, an advanced camera application that brings a host of new photo features and controls designed for the flagship Samsung Galaxy phones.Aimed at experienced photographers, Expert RAW builds on RAW format recordings, complemented by greater dynamic range that provides more detail in the light and dark areas of an image and offers advanced editing capabilities.
But this year, you'll find an (Expert RAW) mode built into the phone's native camera app, which should make (S23 Ultra) a suitable option for those who enjoy creatively editing their phone's photos.
If you're an Adobe Lightroom user, Samsung has made Lightroom your default app for editing Expert RAW files.
5- Improved audio recording in video clips:
For those looking to create immersive, cinematic videos, the Galaxy S23 Ultra can be used with the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro to capture 360-degree audio with both the headset microphone and the phone microphone, allowing you to hear the sound in the sound. Full guidance video.
Samsung claims that the headphones (Galaxy Buds 2 Pro) can use this feature when paired with a Galaxy phone running Android 12 based on the user interface (One UI 5.0) or later that supports the new audio standard (Bluetooth LE Audio) supported. Provides sound quality. In addition to reducing battery consumption, the effect is better.
6- Best front camera:
The Galaxy S23 series is equipped with the first selfie camera with Super HDR technology, and the frame rate has been increased from 30fps to 60fps. This means that the photos and videos taken with the front camera are of the best quality.
Samsung has also improved the front camera with AI technology to ensure accurate details and purest colors in low-light conditions. There's also a feature (Depth Set) that lets you focus on portraits faster, and low-light portrait mode portraits are made clearer with AI-assisted depth scanning.
Samsung has also added a (Warm Tone) function for warm and soft skin tones and a (Natural Tone) function for 3D light skin tones.
