@gavinfabl: just had a quick play with settings and stuff, sports mode doesn't let you have the flash on, but I've found that portrait mode with flash on works quite well - took a few pics of the (uncooperative!) furball indoors and outdoors with that set up and most came out ok.

I have to play around with this camera a bit more.

Coming from an iPhone 4S I feel that took better indoor pics with the auto settings compared to the S3 with auto settings and no flash.

Trial and error playing with the ISO, etc..

Also when taking pics of the kids, default settings pic up motion a lot faster.

I know it's been talked about in reviews but the camera really does saturate the greens!

---------- Post added at 09:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:00 AM ----------

How long does it take the phone to create the HDR from the images?
[Galaxy S III General] cyberz:
Wrong, probably is your monitor or your display, not the camera. I see them on my Asus U36SD with a good led display and the green is ok. On my HP notebook with poor display, are ok too. In this (Samsung-Display)context, the superamoled saturate the colors, not the camera.

However, in case of a photo more or less saturated, it is possible adjust it with a software like Gimp, Photoshop or what you prefer. ;)

[Galaxy S III General] eddyrick:
can anyone recommend the best setup to have for just taking daily photo's both indoor and out? I'm not a photographer in any sense but I love taken photo's of my son and when we are out and about.

I've taken a few photo's but majority seem to blur when he's running about? I can remember back to my Tocco Ultra with 8MP Camera and that was amazing and I was able to capture amazing still photo's when he was on rides at a fair......

I must be able to do the same with the GS3 ?
[Galaxy S III General] eitama:
There are two short comings with Smartphone Cameras:

Small Sensor

No optics zoom

The small sensor means not much light is captured by the phone, which in turn, creates the need for longer exposure in darker or not very bright scenes.

Longer exposure == blurred images, especially when things are moving.

Also it means ISO will go higher which causes more noise.

If you want to shoot something that is moving, you must have a very bright scene. The only compromise you can do is settle for a dark photo.

In that case, there is a scene mode calles "Sports" which will take photos with short exposure.

Even in expensive DSLR Cameras, there is a limit to how dark the scene can be if you are shooting moving objects.

Second that.

Low light, maximum ISO and NO flash.

That's the *REAL* test of the sensor performance.
[Galaxy S III General] oXunknownXo:
Yes, I wanted to focus some of the farther flowers. I have to study some features from the camera so i can achieve better results.
[Galaxy S III General] Wond3r:
Curious, in what instances would you be taking photos in darkness and not use flash?

I understand that its a good way to test the sensor, but in practical usage wouldnt you use flash in the dark?

I do so with my digital cameras as well
[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
Yeah taking photos in the dark with no flash is really a pointless exercise since nobody is really ever going to do that.

Id rather see just random photos people have been taking to see real world performance.
[Galaxy S III General] hefonthefjords:
These photos all look pretty damn good anyway. Its pretty obvious that the camera is as ok as any average pocket camera for most uses.
[Galaxy S III General] Meemo23:

[Galaxy S III General] SiNJiN76:
How fast is the performance of the camera when using the flash? Is it also 'Instant'...and how long does it take in between shots.
[Galaxy S III General] dagrim1:
And how is the camera with regards to video recording? (And mainly the sound).

The SGS2 (and also SGS, without the voodoo sound hack) are pretty much useless when wanting to record at a concert for example. You only hear incredible noise (the speakers gets overblown or something). How is this with the SGS3?

[Galaxy S III General] LeviathanPT:

[Galaxy S III General] maggot_ff:
I too would want a look at how low light pictures without the flash look. I'm a bit of an amateur photographer myself, and I can't stand the look of photos with a small flash pointed directly at the object in focus. Makes colors washed out and weird. Love the images so far though. Is definitely a good replacement for a medium/good point-and-shoot considering all the other things this little wonder does besides taking pictures.
[Galaxy S III General] Wond3r:
If youre an amateur photographer i have to assume you use a DSLR (if not, get one) use that for actual "photography" projects. These camera phones are meant to replace/compete the consumer digi cams which even with those you should be using flash when taking photos in darkness lol

But if someone has for whatever reason taken low light photo without flash, by all means post it here. I think there was one posted here earlier on a basketball court that looked good
[Galaxy S III General] radeonxt:
wow! and they indeed improved the low light condition pics in the retail versions.

will try mine later as all pics were daylight and very sunny.

:D
[Galaxy S III General] maggot_ff:
I do use a DSLR. I use several in fact. And i do use those for my projects, not that a DSLR is needed for taking good pictures, even though a lot of people think a DSLR is all you need to be a good photgrapher.

And my point was; flash pointed directly at your subject, is not very flattering for your picture, no matter what you're taking pictures of. And the flash they use in phones aren't exactly on the soft side either. :p
[Galaxy S III General] Wond3r:
You will pretty much need a dslr for good low light photography though.

Its not flaytering (most times), but its functional, especially when we don't have a dslr on hand while hanging out at night.
[Galaxy S III General] maggot_ff:
There are tons of cameras that perform very well in low light situations even though they are not DSLR. Of course It's going to be better with a D4 or other pro-level DSLR's, but then the price range is completely different.

Either way, we're derailing this topic now. I guess some people like flashes, others don't. I like external flashes where i can choose the angle the flash wil come from, otherwise, no thank you. :p
[Galaxy S III General] Lucasm93:
Pictures in low light without flash are indeed a good and needed test. The flash is not going to make a difference if the subject is far. Taking pictures of the sky, a landscape at night, a concert, etc. I know it won't have great results, but it would be interesting to see it's performance.
[Galaxy S III General] vasra:
You write darkness, I wrote low light.

I am an available light photographer with all my cameras (incl. NEX5 & D800).

Most indoor and evening situations call for (where I live) a sensor performance that can at least make a usable photo without a flash.

That's why I am interested in low light performance and I would imagine I am not alone.

Then again, some people want a xenon+triple-led-flash on their mobile phone so what do I know.

But this is a S3 photo POST thread, not a general discussion thread, so let's just say that it'd be very nice to see some low light, no-flash high-iso shots.

[Galaxy S III General] Guest69:
Christ, I can't believe the complaints about the camera, the Gummi bear pic is awesome, I'm not talking about the subject matter but the camera's ability to take such a good quality image using macro and flash. I have 2 canon eos, a g9 and a sony nex5 along with an old skool 35mm canon eos650. None of these could have taken that pic without some serious &$@#ing about! I can't comment on different camera firmware, maybe there is an issue but I think some people are expecting miracles. I doesn't matter diddly squat how many megapixels a digicamera has, picture quality is PURELY about the lens and how much light that lens can let onto the sensor in a very short time. If you're taking action pictures indoors you will never get a decent photo unless you're using an SLR with a fantastically fast flashgun.

I thought this thread was good because it showcases the abilities of a very limited hardware setup, and not just another vague photo shoot. the most impressive photos are the successful ones of everyday subjects. Anyone with a $20 digicam can take a beatiful picture of a fantastic sunset or beach-scene. The real test, and in mho, is the pictures of everyday subjects in everyday conditions. This phone is not meant to replace a 2 grand camera setup. It's just trying to give you the best results possible using limited hardware.

As a keen amateur photographer I am very, VERY happy with the camera on the gs3, but it won't stop me taking my other kit out in the hope of getting that perfect shot, I just don't take my full kit out as much as I used to as I know if there's that opportunist's shot, the phone can capture it and I won't be too gutted that I didn't have my gear with me.
