So I just covered the second lens on my A1 and tried to zoom... It worked flawlessly even with the supposed "Zoom" lens covered. So if it indeed zooms digitally, why is there a second lens? Is it just a placebo lens? Is it not used at all or just for portait mode? Really puzzled...

It uses the telefoto lens when the lighting is very good mate otherwise it just zooms in with the normal lens

If you want to switch to the telephoto lenses go to manual mode and tap on lenses.
Does the search option on forum do anything?

I just noticed lat night the back camera lense has a plastic film with a circular whole in it. I think it is to prevent the lense from being scratched without distorting pictures during demos.

Has anyone tested the operation of the rear cameras so that they cover another camera somewhere.
I actually tested it, so only the second one shows the picture.
With Hardware info, I can not see other camera information, only one rear camera, and one front camera.
I do not know how they should appear.
If you go to potrait mode and take a picture while covering that second camera, the phone will ask you to uncover it. Which means second camera adds depth.

OK, thank you
Hi is it just me that when i take 2x zoom photo,it doesn't use the telephoto lens or in this case the camera on the left one,i tried to covered it up with my finger but its doesn't affect anythings, its all work in wide lens,camera on the right one either i took 1x or 2x zoom.
But i noticed when in portrait mode it does the job
In XDA review it was mentioned, that telephoto lens is used only in high light scenes (sunny and outdoors), otherwise the phone is using only digital zoom.

Thanks man its explain everything
Yeah when you click on the 2x it doesn't seem to work...but there's a work around..go to manual and change the lens ...it'll work fine...just keep everything in Auto and use it.
If I'm posting in the wrong place I'm sorry, I bought a galaxy s10+ May 5th and I noticed a small noise when changing the camera open from 1.5 to 2.4 and from 2.4 to 1.5, it makes a low and different noise, I wanted to know if it is common of the device that annoying little noise or if it is some type of defect, I am from Brazil and I have the version SM-G975F.
Perfectly normal.

the telephoto lens is raised when the aperture goes to 2.4, is it normal too?

It's perfectly normal, the clicky noise is the variable aperture mechanism.
Telephoto only has F2.4, if you try to use the telephoto lens in a dark place it will automatically switch to cropped F1.5 on the standard camera, that's why you see the view changing a bit.

try to see the application of the camera and switch to the dynamic focus, the camera without being the variable opening moves, I find this mt strange I'm almost asking for the replacement of the device,
puts it in the dynamic focus mode and looks behind the device and sees if the telephoto lens of a "jumped"
edit 1 :
I'm asking a lot of questions to make sure that it's common because I'm afraid to ask for the appliance to change,
I appreciate the answers and understanding.

You mean that it physically moves?
I have the same, the telephoto lenses move by a bit when the main camera changes aperture, but it only moves between the same two positions, I think it's nothing to worry about, it doesn't really have room to move anywhere else since the 3 cameras are locked together, I remember noticing the same on all retail units, don't worry about it unless it looks misaligned or pictures start to look distorted.

Tried what you said, switching from normal to dynamic focus while looking at the lenses, I can se the main camera switching aperture (opens an closes) and the camera telephoto lens move a little bit (like a shake) dont know if that is the stabilization part of the lens activating

The main camera's aperture mechanism is magnet based and it seems to interact with the telephoto's OIS, also magnet based, they shake each other but no big deal.
You can try it yourself with a strong magnet, you'll see it pulling/pushing the telephoto module depending on the angle.
Hi,
I e recently got back in to astronomy thanks to my new pixel 4 however it has an annoying habit of switching lens at the last moment when you have an eyepiece adapter fitted to use it with a scope! Is there a way to force (preferably the telephoto) a lens so I can frame a shot and take a photo?
Thanks
If you zoom in to 1.9 or higher, it should activate the telephoto lens.

That does work but if it loses focus, as it can easily do during an astro shot and fitted to a telescope, it falls back to the wide lens, even at higher than 2x zoom
You should be setting focus to infinity when taking astrophotography, that way it shouldn’t change focus throughout the shot.
