    FYI: The S Pen is a great tool for taking photos. I love having a remote to take photos. I use it a lot when taking photos from a moving vehicle, where I can keep a steady hand and not move the camera by pushing the shutter button on the phone to take a photo. It's also great when taking a selfie. You can hold the phone at arms length and use the S Pen to take the photo instead of trying to hit the shutter button with the same hand holding the phone. Try it, you may really like it!

    What I found with the S23U is that you don't need Night mode for taking night shots, and that you in fact get better photos from just shooting standard, main lens, photo mode. It gives you a longer exposure anyways, and stabilizes it just the same as the night mode.

    I'm still shocked that most "photographers" don't gravitate to the Sony phones where all the computational stuff is thrown out and just good AF and base files (with an actual shutter button) are key. Shows me that even photographers want an "easy" solution for snapshots.

    S Pen stylus is super handy just the truly handy thing go under the radar usually. My favourite and most used feature is the translate feature when you hover over anything on screen (even works with youtube videos or photos) and it is translated. Also there is an spen mmagnifier, also very handy in apps where you cant zoom into something, you hover over the part you want to magnify in a popup. Quick note is also i use a lot, that without unlocking the device you just pop out the pen and you can jot down things...

    The Samsung gallery app is a big winner along with the SPen. I recently switched to a Motorola phone and I really miss the Samsung Gallery app - the image eraser function which is kinda buried within the editing functions is unbelievably good. The video editing functions to trim and crop the aspect ratio is also underated vs overall ease of use.
    The only thing Samsung has goofed on, is removing the ability to use any image as a sticker - made putting people's faces into memes easy as pie.
    Smart select to create gifs is easier with the SPen to frame what you are looking to capture and because the SPen is essentially a mouse, you can press play in RUclips and then "click" record with the SPen on the screen

I also use my S23 for Civil Air Patrol and love being able to punch in and swap between camera zooms when filming objects in flight without having to stop and start. Does the S24 do something different?

    Looking at this video and also the one from Pixel 8 Pro and the DSLR to iphone comparison I see that you finally did what I have been missing for years: honest reviews of smartphone cameras from a photographer (and videographers) perspective, looking at aspects that are relevant for photography with a solid background on "real" cameras. This is what to date no review, be it on websites, dead trees or youtube did. I also liked that you took the effort to really shoot interesting scenes and subjects that actually show each mode and focal length for what it is useful for - and not like 99% or reviewers: point camera out the window and shoot the front yard and then begin to pixel peep the ugly results.
    So many thanks for your really helpful reviews, I gave them a thumbs up and subscribed your channel and look forward to more interesting stuff.
    I actually ordered the S24 Ultra now - have the feeling that the iPhone 15 Pro max is substantially better camera wise, but since I am locked in the Android Ecosystem I took the second best choice (for me). And I actually do love the S-Pen and Dex!

    I use the S23 Ultra and iPhone and view them as basically a replacement for a point-and-shoot, and nothing more. You can't defy physics, and large sensors and lenses just produce different results. All of the vids proclaiming "bettar than full frame!" "I shot a feature film on iPhone!" are just clickbait and paid marketing posts. My favorite was the Sony claim that their new amazing Xperia phone sensor is similar in low-light performance to a full-frame A7... it's impressive what these marketing folks can say with a straight face.

  • @Chrushy
    @Chrushy 5 месяцев назад

    Which encoder would you recommend for filming, aiming for the best image quality in 4K videos at 30 FPS for RUclips, such as for a travel video?
    I know that the H.265 encoder is claimed to offer the same quality as H.264 but with half the required data. However, I prefer H.264 encoding because the decoding of H.265 data significantly extends the editing time in my editing software. Personally, I don't mind that it consumes more data, as editing time and compatibility are more important to me.
    Currently, I am confident that I would exclusively use the H.264 standard (bitrate around 48,000 kbits).
    However, there is an additional parameter in the advanced video settings for HEVC (H.265) called "High Bitrate Videos." Enabling this option provides a bitrate of around 80,000 - 90,000 kbits when recording with H.265, almost twice as high as H.264 or H.265 (without selecting higher bitrate).
    How can this be, and is the image quality significantly better? Unfortunately, I cannot perceive any difference in image quality myself. If the image quality were truly much better, I would even consider switching from H.264 to H.265 (High Bitrate) and accept the poorer compatibility and convenience in the editing software for it.

    Great video. So it still suffers from variable frame rate? That has caused me serious frustration. If you see any of my exploring videos filmed with my s22 Ultra it is ao obvious when mixed with other cameras. Also thought audio sounded worst than on my 22 ultra... Hope im wrong.

      I found a youtube video showing the difference in "10x zoom" between the two. Looking at the picture I could see a noticeable difference, but in reality it didn't make much of a difference. It was not the difference between a good and a bad shot but more like a very bad and another very bad shot (only slightly more so) looking at the same kind of magnification. Maybe the 230mm was a marketing gimmick from the start and indeed the 115mm is a much more useable focal length. I was convinced I want the older model because I really like having long telephoto from time to time. But that will then stay the playground of my old and trusty DSLR with the 70-200L and for casual shots without heavy luggage I keep my RX100 VI around for which still no smartphone is a match.

      That's not how tech companies operate. Internal marketing teams overpromise, bigwigs love the timeline and sign off, then the tech teams have to scramble to meet the press date of release. It's been this way forever, against consumer and developer sentiment, unlikely to ever change.
      This was my number one gripe working in big tech companies. "Scrambling" caused health and family issues. People create these devices, and they sacrifice a lot to get them in the hands of consumers.

    Stylus is fine. But I miss the IR port that I have in Note4 and use it a lot for TV/projectors, air conditioning remote, camera remote etc. Also audio Jack is basic thing that should be in any phone. And other thing is user replaceable battery. So the Galaxy Note 4 was the last one having all these features... and I still use it.

      That's the effect of imitate instead of innovate. If Samsung users wanted IPhones we know where to get one.
      Same with the loss of the 10X, which was surprisingly useful and not always necessarily in a photographic way. It really irks me to hear someone saying digital crop is as good as optical zoom. Ultra BS. Not to mention that 30X and onwards are crops of crops, which will suck so bad, regardless how niche their use was. Why not give the already sucky 3X the 50mp sensor and keep the 10X and your dignity? Instead of falling in line and following the apples of the world.
      That mentality is what stops the implementation of tech they already have into their devices. It takes some guts and a pioneering spirit to try something different and stand behind it.

The rumours are Sony IMX8xxx series but it would be good to know the sensor size. The iPhone 15PMax 5X tele can produce some decent images but you can tel its just a small 12MP sensor. I was hoping for something more from Samsung in the S24U but it does appear to be a modest, incremental upgrade. Still buying one though to upgrade from my S22U!

No one saying the phone is perfect and yes some of the new features will eventually come to other Androids and even Apple at some point mainly speaking of the Google features as Google is pretty much on any and every phone. But isn't that all phones. Pretty much any feature on a new upcoming phone will eventually be coming to other new and upcoming phones and even trickle down to some of the older models. The thing is it is new for this phone now so it is the first to have the feature which is the case with most new features okay so therefore the S-Pen is a nice feature that only it has and most other phones will probably never have
