  • How do the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra's 50 megapixel Raw files compare to the Raw files from a 45 megapixel full frame camera? In this video we compare and contrast several different landscape photography raw photos taken with both the Samsung S24 Ultra and the Nikon Z7II. We compare the images side by side in Adobe Lightroom and I give my thoughts on how these two cameras perform. Enjoy!

      Thing is, it really is mind blowing how good phones are. Obviously when boundaries must be pushed, the phones quality becomes Morecambe obvious. For me, a external camera is essential since astrophotography is photography of stellar objects using a telescope so camera choice is important. External cameras and cameras in general beat phones (dur to the mountinf system to lens). In the worst case, people brag about their fake x100 time zoom S23 and it is annoying and ridiculous but what ever.

    The simple fact that we can compare the S24 Ultra PHONE camera to FF Nikon Z7II speaks volumes. The FF sensor is more forgiving and has a better dynamic range, that is given. But with careful setting S24 (also S23) will give you very good to excellent images. If you want less default sharpening of the pictures you should download free Samsung Camera Assistant and with this app adjust sharpening to "Medium" (Picture softening), something that I use and recommend. P.S. I have Nikon D750 and Samsung S23.

    Expert RAW is essentially computational RAW that outputs JPEG/RAW hybrids. That's why in the underexposure tests the Samsung falls apart introducing weird smudgy, blotchy artifacts and color casts when you push the exposure up while the Nikon doesn't. Photos from Expert RAW are definitely better than regular JPEGs but I wouldn't call them true RAW files as they have many characteristics of smartphone JPEG processing, which sort of defeats the purpose of shooting in RAW in the first place. It's really only useful for scenes with very wide dynamic range, low-light scenarios where Pro mode tends to introduce far more noise or shooting in 50MP as the 50MP samples I've shot just in Pro mode on my S23U are somehow less detailed than the 12MP samples even at base ISO and Expert RAW's processing seems to fix this issue. I'd personally steer clear of Expert RAW if you shoot in RAW often

      Why do you say that? It's not like you can't work with phones just like a pro camera. If you're shooting at night, you simply increase the exposure and always shoot at ISO 50. Exposure bracketed 50MP RAWs look great when stitched and processed manually.

Also , FYI, ISO is more akin to a measurement of gain, not light sensitivity like ASA in the film days. Software emulating is always going to sacrifice something. There's a reason why cameras are used for actual (more than mere snapshots) photography and phones are considered toys by comparison. Live with both (e.g. have experience on the topic) and you'll only pick up the phone to snap a photo if you don't already have the camera nearby.

      THIS. I saw that on ExpertRAW you get nifty features like the virtual ND filters etc. But we CAN'T disable the processing there. Sometimes it looks awful. Also. if you notice, the RAW files on the normal Pro mode is like CRAZY big compared to the ExpertRAW RAW files. It's like it's not actually a RAW file. I saw that for one of my picture, I got below 10MB of ExpertRAW RAW size, compared to like 40MB on the Pro mode RAW. I think there is something going on there

      ​@WhatThePheel I did the comparison between my Nikon D5300 and my Samsung S23U nothing much of a difference unless I started heavy color grading my files, the D5300 held up well but when I edited the Samsung it fell apart after using most of the color wheels. A camera body does not really matter in terms of quality, it's the lens that gives it power while smartphones is the Ai, it also depends on what you are capturing. Phones will be a hard pass to sports and wildlife photography, it may be good for landscapes but it is due that landscapes are generally dependent on the editing and hoe you see the photo. Phones will never beat a professional camera in a mile, Fuji cameras have better colors than any phone could offer, Nikon is generally just average, Sony has better video features, Lumix offers good video while maintaining cost, Canon has good color science and overall good photo quality. While phones on the other hand can offer quick and easy snaps but can never have the same complexity as a Full frame or a Medium format camera

    Professionals will always shoot with a fixed body and replaceable lenses. However, for the vast majority of the population, these new high quality phones, and there are a lot of them, do way better than many people want and most of them taken on a phone are rarely printed out. And the phones make it so much easier to travel with a good quality "camera" that fits in your pocket versus a big bag of bodies, lenses, filters, etc.

    I also just purchased the S24 Ultra to replace my S21 Ultra and I also own the Nikon Z7ii. The detail that the 1x lens on the S24 resolves is pretty impressive. Now for low light, or as your comparison shows dynamic range, the Nikon quickly pulls away, but you have to think that this is just a cell phone and how far technology has come. The largest improvement that the S24 brought compared to my S21 is that it nails focus. My 108MP mode shots on the S21 were great when they were in focus, but it missed focus 50% of the time and when you're in bright sunlight it's hard to see if you have a keeper.

    I refused to get a camera phone until someone put out a phone that had a decent camera. That turned out to be a Nokia N73 in 2007. It was only 5MP, but it had a decent lens and took good photos. Phone cameras has come a long way since then, especially the sensors and computational photography enhancements. It’s quite amazing what a phone can do these days.
    That said, I just bought a Canon R10 (APS-C) camera because I really want the control you can get with a “real” camera and interchangeable lenses, plus the much greater light gathering capabilities of the larger lenses and sensors. It’s not nearly as convenient as the phone, which I always have on me, but for those times when I know I want to do some photography, I now have a solid option that I haven’t had since my 35mm film camera died. Opted for APS-C over full-frame or larger because of cost, size, and weight…and I’m not a professional photographer so I wouldn’t really get much more benefit from the full-frame or larger format.

    Astrophotography and general low-light shooting made me aware of the importance of electron well depth, which dictates the sensor's quantum efficiency, which is what constitutes dynamic range.
    Between similar sized sensors of varying resolution, the lower resolution sensor would generally perform better in low-light conditions simply because it can hold a higher number of electrons in each of it's pixel wells.
