Samsung Galaxy S5 camera: 4K wonder

Source, full samples: http://recombu.com/mobile/reviews/samsung/galaxy-s5/

Samsung has upgraded the Galaxy S5’s camera to 16-megapixels, compared with the Galaxy S4’s 13-megapixel snapper, but we didn’t notice (or particularly expect) a huge leap in picture quality. The Galaxy S5 still produces crisp, detailed photos with realistic colours, in almost all lighting conditions. Evening and low-light shots are a little less noisy now, but they still don’t hold a candle to Sony’s Xperia handsets; which are the best at snapping bright, sharp photos in gloomy conditions.

Where the Galaxy S5 really shines is its uber-fast shutter speed, which is almost a match for the iPhone 5s. As long as you aren’t shaking the smartphone about, you’ll find the auto-focus locks onto your subject and the shutter fires in 0.3-seconds or less, a pleasing result of that Snapdragon 801 chip.

We’re also happier with Samsung’s fresh new approach to camera features. The Galaxy S4 suffered from a heavy features menu, bogged down with all kinds of tools and tricks that you had to scroll right through to find the one you wanted. The Galaxy S5, by comparison, has just a handful of selectable modes.

Motion-based tools such as Drama and Eraser mode have now been consolidated into a single, user-friendly feature called ‘Shot And More’. It’s a much tidier approach - just shoot what you want and then select what you want to do afterwards. This is particularly useful with the likes of Eraser mode, as you don’t necessarily know you’ll need to remove photo bombers before you take a shot.

Unfortunately, the Galaxy S5’s new camera features are a bit hit-and-miss. For instance, the Selective Focus mode takes ages to process, as it’s basically taking a number of different shots and combining them, so you can choose whether to keep the foreground, background or both in sharp focus. The results aren’t always spot-on either. Quite a few times we found the background remained blurry in all of the shots, even when we tried to get it in focus.

The new Virtual Tour mode is a neat, quirky little idea, allowing you to take a series of 360-degree panoramas and string them together into an interactive ‘tour’ of a location. In reality, however, it’s far too time consuming, requiring you to take dozens of photos in each spot. If you’ve got the patience for it, then fair play. Otherwise, we can’t see this one getting much use, when you can just do a video tour instead.

Thankfully the glorious new 4k video mode charges in to save the day, capturing incredible amounts of detail thanks to the Ultra high-def resolution. Great news for when you finally buy a 4k telly, in a decade or so. You’ll need a powerful rig to play the videos in all their glory, of course - our MacBook Airs could only manage a slideshow of random frames. The other downside is the vast amounts of storage space each 4k video takes up, roughly 1GB per three minutes of footage. Thank God for that microSD card slot (which supports up to a whopping 128GB). Samsung has even limited each video clip to five minutes or less, presumably to prevent the poor Galaxy S5 from imploding under duress.

In addition to 4k mode, you can once again shoot fast and slow-motion video, same as the Galaxy S4. However, you can’t retrospectively add slow-motion to selected frames, as you can with the Z2 and the iPhone 5s.
