We test Samsung's Camera RAW app on the GalaxyS22Ultra, and see how its power makes for some stunning photography.
The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra has a prolific camera system that helps it compete with the best smartphones out there. This is because of the phone’s diverse — and what might seem grandiose to minimalists — camera rig, which includes a 108MP primary camera, a wide-angle sensor, a 3x telephoto, and a 10x periscope zoom camera.
The details stored in a RAW file allow you to improve the image through editing, giving them a different mood or changing the ambiance dramatically. Simply put, RAW has the same effects on photographs as Red Bull has on your adrenal glands. Thankfully, Samsung provides an additional camera app called Expert RAW, that’s exclusively available on only some of its top-tier devices. In the Expert RAW app, you get an interface identical to the stock Camera app’s Pro Mode, but instead of images saving as JPEG files, they’re saved as RAW files.
Now, look at the edited version of the same image. The sky has been highlighted beautifully, making the capital city’s gruesome pollution almost invisible. The brickwork on the minaret and the surrounding buildings have been highlighted well, whereas most of the details on the trees have been restored. In addition, the warmer greens and brighter yellows give the image a suitable summer afternoon look.
But then there’s an alternative approach to it, too. The below image is my second edit of the same RAW file, and this one focuses on a more vibrant look. This attempts to reverse what the centuries of oxidation have done to the red limestone wall. Meanwhile, the dome and the tree outside complement the blue sky without fusing it.Image 3: Reaching for the skies The following set of images shows an intermingling of different cultures.
In my choice of edits for the RAW file, I prioritize restoring the natural color of the pillar while choosing a cooler undertone to make the image look more palatable. Image 6: Thep ortrait For this next set of images, I asked my wife to take portrait shots with the 3x telephoto camera on the Galaxy S22 Ultra. The first image in the set has a background blur as it complies with the default settings in the portrait mode. Notably, the blur feels too aggressive and almost as if I’m standing in front of a fake background — and I certainly do not like the result.
This is one of my favorite shots, and that is why I went for a more dramatic look. In the edited RAW, I fixed the color of the sky and intentionally dulled the shadows to focus on the minaret. The saturated yellows give it a more attractive appearance, diluting the details. If you are wondering about my choice of the title Lift-off, the minaret looks like a rocket ship, with different galleries dividing it into sections.
