            "Another option lets you disable the Automatic lens switching, that is to say that it gives you manual control over which lens to use. "
            That's great, every manufacturer should offer this.
            Also, every manufacturer should allow you to choose whether analog binning should be turned on.
            And for all these options you should have the option to choose between true raw files and computational photography raw files or machine learning dng files.

              Impressive: The posted video shows that Samsung's astrophotography mode can be also used with the periscope camera. As far as I know, Google offers this, too, but as far as I know, Google's periscope astrophotography mode uses 16s per frame and this leads to star trails whereas Samsung uses 5s per frame according to the video. This will lead to noticeably shorter star trails.

                Transferring raw photos or video means you have to decode to jpeg if you want to see them on your pc. then again i could be wrong.

                  notafanboy, 26 Oct 2022Faster shutter? Does that mean no more horrible shutter lag?! 😲Faster shutter = less frames stacked.

                  Nothing to do with how much it needs to start capturing the scene.

                          It lets you disable stuff that should not be forced to begin with.
                          Seriously, there was not way to turn off HDR on screen?
