hey pple i dont know where to post this thread
anyway i used to have sgs3
it had a low light mode and it was ultra smooth and good for me.
but when i bought note 3 i didnt find this low light mode
also the smart stabilization for low light mode is **** makes the screen looks like reddish .
is there any modes to port s3 low light mode to our note 3 ?
Actually, smart stabilization IS the night mode.

And it work fine for me although you have to be steadier when holding the N3 because it's more sensitive to shaking. I've also not noticed any change in color reproduction with Smart Stabilization off or on.
This was taken with Smart Stabilization (and the lighting's green in real life).
Yes, I actually find it good when shooting in low lights without flash.
Yes, they renamed night shot - smart stabilization, sort off. For proper color you can go to white balance menu and try to match type of illumination there, even dedicated DSLR's have sometimes problems with white balance under artificial light and low light shooting is always a crap shot, sometimes you get it right most of the time you won't. I also have GS3 and it's camera is pretty good, Note 3 is maybe little better but not by much, so don't expect Canon 5D quality here. Note 3 has some new modes like HDR , best photo or eraser, see if any of those have any use.
The note 3 and s4 blur shots if your subject moves in low light conditions. Have they actually fixed this in the s5 or is it just the same.
Right now my note 3 bugs me as any pictures I take of my son indoors blur, if he moves in the slightest.
I've had 2 note 3s and an s4 they all had this issue.
It's weird how all the camera reviews never cover this.
Any info would be much appreciated
Having received my S5, I can say the differences between the S4 and S5 camera aren't as pronounced as I would have hoped. There is a difference in the quality of the final shot in favour of the S5, but the process of taking the photos, in terms of shot speed and auto focus speed, isn't that different, especially in low light conditions. Actually, with the new low light 'hold still' shot mode of the S5, it's slower, although the final result is much better.
I'm actually debating returning my S5 and returning to my old S4 contract which only had 12 months to run.
So far my M8 wipes the floor with my S5 on those shots - indoor, medium light. It still blurs, in other words. Tomorrow I'll be able to test more. I've enabled face detection, maybe that'll help. I shouldn't have to hold the camera still for 4 seconds every time it has to get a decent shot in medium light...
I really really wanted to love the S5, but so far the only improvement in the camera over the S4 is the speed. And honestly, I'd argue the quality might be worse in some scenarios b/c of this new isocell technology.
Disappointed by low light performances. My Z1 is way better. Pictures taken in broad day light are excellent though.
Why does my s5's camera suck without flash? It gets so grainy! And the front camera is also ****, my S3 takes way better pictures! Anyone else have this problem?
The S5 flash seems close to half the power of the S3 so obviously that makes a huge difference in low light, So this more than cancels out the S5s improved low light ability in the sensor.
Your camera has a problem. Clean the lens carefully and if it does not help, try to compare with another S5.
Cleaned it, Still same.. It doesn't focus as much too..
Low light shots without flash are terrible, well lit shots are very good though. I think your camera is normal.

I think so too. But what really annoys me is when the camera is on auto mode, you snap a picture in "sort of" low light, and the freakin "hold the camera stable until picture is takenÉ message stays on screen for like 15-20 seconds, How annoying is that? Other S phones never had that.
That second pic is normal for the S5 camera unfortunately in low light it not very good, you need to have a very steady hand and turn on image stabilization to get any kind of decent shot, or just use the flash if you intend to do any close up shots in low light.
As for the front camera I've seen worst, the best I've seen to date is from the iPhone 5S, no matter what lighting conditions are like it always gives a great image from the front camera.
Tbh i do find the S5 camera abit hit & miss in both picture and video, if the conditions are right then images are some of the best you see from a smartphone, with only the Nokia 1020 being the exception , but as soon as the light becomes slightly less than ideal it's starts to struggle, where the other's will do a better job.
I think Samsung have finally realized this, so when the Note 4 arrives it will come with a now rumoured new 12mp Sony Sensor with OIS & a F2.0 lens which should in theory give it much better performance in low light, and that being the case I will buy the Note 4 on launch come September.
try to turn on stabilization and hdr
After having used a Lumia Icon for two weeks, and having returned it during my "upgrade" window, it's hard to not compare the camera quality. My S5 performs very well outside in well lit scenarios, but most cameras do. I too have noticed the low light/indoor lightning suckage, especially compared to the Icon. I don't mind a photo being a little dark (that can be auto fixed with image software), but it's incredibly frustrating getting out of focus shots more often than not just because of a little less than optimal lighting situation (not talking about night shots). I leave HDR mode on full time now, and it has improved the quality/consistency some. I only use image stabilization in low light situations when I know there won't be a lot of movement involved. All of the pictures I take are through the built in camera app. I haven't ventured to other camera apps yet, but I figure it wouldn't make a huge difference.
Ultimately, I decided on functionality (android) over camera quality as I don't take pictures on a day to day basis to justify the lack of apps on the 8 ecosystem. I still enjoy my phone's use in my day to day though.
The camera is not the best, it takes several seconds to take a pic sometimes, which easily becomes blurry and out of focus... I wanna take pic not a movie, this hold still thing really annoy you after a while..

Turn off image stabilisation if you don't need it and that problem will be fixed. It's the image stabilisation waiting for you to stop moving the phone that is causing the delays.
Also, back on main topic... try manually changing the
ISO settings to see if high value is causing your issues. High ISO = noisy low light pic.

At the club, at the bar, or just in your mom's basement, nighttime is when you come out to play. Rate this thread to express how the Note5's camera performs when no or low light is present. A higher rating indicates that the camera sensor "sees" lots of light in dim conditions, and that the resulting photos have minimal noise. A higher rating also indicates that when the flash fires, the resulting photo is evenly-lit without any bright spots.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
The Pro mod adds a lot to the scence, it easier to capture good photos in low light with Note 5, but it can't hold a candle to the mighty G4 camera at low light, i have many photos with G4 and some with note 5, G4 wins easy, but Note 5 still does a good job.

From what I have seen the G4 does better at close up things, maybe motion...I don't know about that. But in other cases with exposure and further away the Note seems to take the lead.
At dim room light it seems to be a big toss up....except again with close ups where the G4 seems to take a lead.
i agree my G4 does have better result in low light for preset option. not sure if in pro mode though.
So I've been KIND of missing my G4, which I still own, so this morning, with some lights on and some light off in the living room, I took the same shot with both phones, because I am sure that extra .1 aperature width really makes the difference....
But now I'm not so sure. These pics show clearly that the Note 5 gets all the points for color accuracy and at the least TIES with the G4 in terms of clarity and loss of details.
I think having the buttons on the back of the G4 lends itself to a more stable shot... I can press the volume button with my index finger while wrapping the rest of my hand around to stabilize. Whereas I either need to use the on screen shutter, or hold the phone and press down on the volume button which can make the phone shake or move.... does anyone else get what I'm saying?
Either way, this allayed my fear of missing out on the G4... which, while using it, was slower and buggier than the N5.
The Auto mode is very aggressive in noise reduction, which can make some photos really blurry, video is much worse, it's got even more blur.
I hope samsung will reduce it in Android 6, i hope we can create a group and let them know about this.
low light sucks compared to galaxy edge plus, i compared them hand in hand, with no lights turn on, only using a flash light to focus on a certain area
The only thing that bugs me is that in auto mode the iso is jacked all the way up and it manual mode when you go for a slower shutter you cant control exposure which usually over shoots. But sometimes the exposure is good.
Even with raw format you get some noise when using low ISO and slow shutter speed
The low light camera is decent. Much better than my note 3. I cant complaint to much, like the previous post, there will be some digital noise. I shut mostly in auto mode anyway, sometimes I'll mess with macro for foodie shots

Rate this thread to express how the Samsung Galaxy S10's camera performs when no or low light is present.

S10 has f/1.5 aperture for rear camera and f/1.7 for selfie camera. It means alot for low light photography.
I'm pre ordering the S10 + and after seeing online samples, have little hopes it will.do any better than my note 9
Same orange tint and lag that blurs pics in artificial light is already apparent.
I use gcam for all indoor shots and hope it works on the S10 too....unless they've done some software update on release to fix it.
Ok, had a good 30 mins hands on with S10plus and shutter lag is gone.... orange tint still remains though
I'm hopeful low light photos will match my S9. I have taken some perfect very low light shots with it and I'm hoping the S10 will do the same.

looking forward to better cam
I am really looking forward to a better camera and hope that this camera can capture red and pinks. I am currently upgrading from a s4 that really had issues with colors.
Not too shabby ...
its good, but not mate 20 pro good.
only device i can compare with right now since i have both
It's all software, not sure why they can't make it perfect. Google has been using pretty much the same camera since Pixel 1 or even Nexus 6p and it's still one of the best because of software processing
It is still behind Google Pixel.

Totally true. If Google can make that software then can Samsung. Samsung has the capability and resources of doing research. I am coming from pixel 3 and low light performance of s10 is way behind than pixel. Even the day light shots look over exposed. Not sure if they did take this decision deliberately or their QA department is potato.

Gcam on my lgv40 is 1,000 better than this phone. Wide angle shots are almost unusable on this phone
Compared low light against S9+ and I noticed a difference in exposure time and iso.
S9 has lower iso but more exposure time and a bit more noise reduction.
S10 on the other hand chooses for higher iso and less exposure.
Both have advantages and disadvantages and depends on preferences. For static objects S9 look better but for moving objects S10 is better.
If you can hold your phone steady, S9 can make great photos with low light. But I think S10 will be better for majority of people.
S10 is now more like Apple's approach for taking photos. There's a little more noise but also less blur.
Night mode on S10 is awful btw. They really should make this better.
A quick snap outside my gym's window
Very low light photo... Not bad at all... Just point and shoot
staggering amount of noise, sadly nothing is improved on the same S9+ lens
Sorry
With sam
Dont expect great camera at night
