Loving the camera so far(Still not gonna replace my Fuji X-T1 but love it for a cellphone camera)! Love that it got the light rays! :D

On the side note though, was gonna try to edit this pic on Adobe Photoshop Express but it kept force closing! Hopefully adobe addresses this issue soon since I use that app often! :(

i bought the icarez but have not received it. how do you like that screen protector?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] randpost:
I think they are terrible at least for the Note 4. The protectors are big enough that they go past where the screen starts curving at the edges so all four sides of the protector peel up easily. No big deal since they were only 2 bucks and will last me till I can see some solid protector reviews. They need to make the protectors smaller in their next revision.

I honestly didn't "icarez" enough to contact them or submit a review. I didn't expect much due the curved glass. I may send them a message on Amazon.

Noisy as hell. Pretty unimpressive. Oh well. Good thing the day shots look amazing...my M8 definitely does better (sans crop) at night.

Loving the selective focus mode! :)
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] p()()pypants:
Is selective focus done before or after the shot?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] ronj1986:
The results are shown in real time. Meaning you will be able to see how the selective shot image will appear before you press the shutter button.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] gbert15:
Not sure how it does it but this is how it looked like prior to pressing the shutter button! I can then select far focus which focuses on the gate and then pan focus! Here's another one!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] treobwoy:
I don't add crappy auto filters by apps. If I want to adjust a picture i took I'll do it on proper software that allows me the control to do it. Nothing about this thread said that you can't edit your photos on a computer, it's about posting pictures taken with your note 4. What you do after you take the picture doesn't some how make it NOT taken with the note 4. If you all don't like pictures edited in lightroom or photoshop then don't edit in lightroom or photoshop, but some of us like that control and won't use a premade filter to ruin what is some damned good quality optics housed on the note 4.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] wase4711:
fair enough, but if you do post "post edited" photos, it would be nice to post that info with the photo, so people wont think they can actually get the same results with just the phone camera/software...
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] treobwoy:
I've stated multiple times I'm a photographer by trade. Nobody should expect to get the same results as i do just shooting around the house, it's what I do for a living.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] whatthehckeric:

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] GoyoNeuff:
Both have very valid points. [MENTION=523390]treobwoy[/MENTION], please look at it this way: many folks (including me) are looking for the camera capabilities of the Note 4 and would like to know how the original/untouched/plain pictures coming from the Note 4 really look like. Yes, a photographer like you will make the pictures even better with Lightroom or similar software packages, but for us "simply mundane individuals" the original photos should tell us how good or bad the pictures coming from the Note 4 really are. In my personal case, still have my 808 since it is still the best camera phone out there, but it is getting really "old" smartphone-wise, so I have been looking for a replacement, and it seems as the Note 4 not only is a fantastic smartphone/phablet, but also has a very good camera. I have came to this thread looking for picture samples of real life (no from online reviews from sites that are very often biased either way) to see if the Note 4 has indeed the best camera out there of the new smartphones.

Cheers,

G.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] GoyoNeuff:
Folks, thank you for the pictures !

Would be even better if you can post pictures of indoor and low light situations !! I think that by now we know the Note 4 takes superb pictures with good light... Let's see more samples of indoor and low light situations, and maybe of moving objects !

Cheers,

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] treobwoy:
There are plenty of sites and plenty of posts in this very thread that have pictures taken straight out of the camera and posted. If you or anybody choses to focus solely on my pictures or the pictures someone else takes and edits in light room as the sole arbiter of the capability of the note 4 camera then you're doing poor research.

Additionally, just as many of you are looking for raw examples, others are looking to see the full limits that the note 4 camera can be taken to. This is not an all or nothing thread. There are pictures straight out of camera with default processing, pictures inundated with prefab filters from apps, and there are pictures where every single pixel has been squeezed and optimized to push as much detail as possible out of the image. None is a wrong approach and all are examples that people are equally interested in. I can't help but think this is specifically focused on me because if I was posting (as many in here have, to no complaint) pictures that were blasted all to hell with Google plus, instagram and vsocam filters then no one would blink an eye. Yet those processes do more to destroy any example of the true default capabilities of the note 4 camera as anything I might do in light room or photoshop.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] dkb218:
The only requirement of this thread is that the picture be taken with the Note 4. Nothing more. Now lets get back to picture taking!
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] treobwoy:
Thank you. My point all along.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] GoyoNeuff:
Please do not get upset, I am not criticizing your posts, on the contrary, I thank you and all the other folks posting pictures here so other folks can look at them and see what the Note 4 camera can do. I would like to ask you, if you can, to please post the picture before and after the Lightroom treatment, I think that could be very informative to a lot of people out there.

Cheers.

Yes please !!!

for those that keep asking how i get my shots this is the set up i use. this was actually taken of my note 3 but it's the same set up for my note 4. And as I've said in every post, i use the photojojo macro lens

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:
You should make another thread dedicated w/ review! I'd be interested to read into detail about these lenses and setup.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Nitemare3219:
Can you tell/link the tripod/mount setup you have? Would really like to get one of my own for steady awesome looking shots. :D
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] treobwoy:
Honestly it's just a cheap sunpak tripod from Walmart and the first cheap mount I found on Amazon. Doesn't matter what brand as long as it gets the job done. It's cell phone photography I wasn't going for brand name or durability
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Nitemare3219:
Took a quick few pictures the past few days. Very pleased so far. The detail is so awesome in these daylight photos that I could honestly use them as wallpapers on my 27" 1440p desktop monitor. I've included a picture of one of these pictures displayed full screen. My monitor oversaturates a bit, but I'm fine with that. It still looks great. Keep in mind these photos are resized, compressed, and auto-enhanced via G+ - the level of detail is relatively close to that of the source, but 400 KB vs ~5 MB is a big difference.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] twe90kid:

How do you compare it to the 808 or 1020?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Prolyfyk1982:
In all honesty I can't compare it to the Nokia 808 or 1020. However having owned the Canon t3i and currently using a Sony A77 and A99 I will say that even though it can't outperform a dslr in terms of both performance or quality in most cases, under the right circumstances it would be hard to tell the difference especially with good lighting and a little editing. Excellent detail and pretty good color reproduction. I wouldn't use it professionally but for any other case I don't feel the need to bring my dslr everywhere I go because I feel the camera on this thing is more than adequate. As a matter of fact I'm going to give myself some photo challenges to see what I can get out of it. This week I'm going to do a fun photoshoot of my little boy and see how "professional" I can make them look. Hope this helps.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] windstrings:
Most of you guys using hdr settings?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] jeffcaljr:
I distinctly remember using hdr on the shot of the city streets, but can't remember on the nature shots honestly.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] windstrings:
I think hdr takes 3 shots... One under exposed, one normal, one overexposed then merges them together to grab a wider contrast ability.

If you saw a brief processing bar after the shot it was hdr.

Gives you more editing latitude after the fact too
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Nitemare3219:
Took a lot of low-light shots tonight with differing ISO's. Exposure setting didn't seem to change anything in this setting, or else it wasn't working. White balance was set to cloudy to help bring out proper color in my LEDs; however, ISO setting will change the appearance of the lights as well. The shots are OK with the stock camera app, and the phone was mounted on a tripod, photos set with a timer, and not touched once focused and capture button pressed. This was in my garage with only the car's interior lights on - no other ambient light present. Hopefully L API's bring some more useful camera settings to help with low light shots. Manual ISO settings can help but you will trade detail and light to get rid of grain. I took shots on auto and at the "best" ISO I found. Few used flash, and they are obvious. Auto-enhanced, resized/compressed with G+ - but still fairly representative of the actual shots.

Think I used HDR below in this shot:

Perhaps the best shot of them all

Panorama is hard with with people. Moving objects

In bright sunlight with stationary objects it's crystal clear like a beach scene for instance
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] JoeBear1975:
Yes indeed, people & moving things are hard. My first Panoramic pic with the N4 was of my living room. (Looks like I deleted it, dang. It wasn't too bad for my first time trying).

Parking lot at work.
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] Nitemare3219:
More pictures. All (except selective focus) have HDR. Some are AWB, some are daylight balanced. Most auto-enhanced via G+ & compressed/resized.

I feel like on the outside edges, particularly the far left - it goes out of focus/detail is lost. This is most noticeable in shots that are of a large area such as some of the ones below. It's easily seen in the tree leaves and blades of grass compared to the rest of the scene. Is this just the nature of the camera, or is mine defective? I also think the sun can cause some lens flare at times as seen in the first few pictures. I have some Photojojo lenses coming - might need to get the polarizer.

Camera setup I'm using... Sunpack 5200D and ChargerCity camera mount from Amazon - about $25~ total.

Darkness/light from flash only.

8X (maximum) digital zoom.

Viewed at 100% the signs across the street are still perfectly readable. Threre's a lot of detail and very little noise on the red truck, especially considering the distance.

Complete darkness - the light visible in the distance was almost imperceptible to the naked eye. Some noise (of course), but almost no detectable blur when viewed at 100%.

No HDR. Good detail on the leaves.

[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] windstrings:
It's hard to see on here, by the time they get compressed, etc they look terrible compared to original.

So does anyone think the hdr ones are less clear since it's 3 shots in one?
[T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 General] kgbeezr1:
Most of the hosted images you can either click on them or right click>copy image URL and download the full size version that way.

I don't personally notice any reduced clarity using HDR with a steady hand.
