[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Maxazarov19:
Greetings, dear friends!

This moment has come, which I myself have been waiting for a long time. I present, probably, the last largest release of Gcam for S23 for AGC9.2v4 - Mazar X Final.

The config contains many innovations and quality improvements compared to previous works, there is a lot of material and I ask you to familiarize yourself with it before using it! And also watch explanatory videos of how and what to do - so that there are no unnecessary questions. Thanks in advance, and let's get started.

The config is presented with 4 degrees of sharpening - Soft, Medium, Sharp and Sharp+ (the latter is for very strong sharpness lovers).

Changes and improvements: ⚡

1) Significantly improved and adjusted noise reduction for all lenses in ZSL

2) Significantly improved noise reduction in NS modes on all lenses due to new noise settings

3) NEW! Fast upscaling mode. By default, configs are removed without upscale, because it often harms moving objects, and can simply blur the picture randomly, so it is disabled. But in certain scenarios, you can quickly turn it on yourself - to do this, you need to press the button of the selected lens on the right and you will see how, for example, 1.0x became 1.0s (the S next to the number in the name of the lens lights up - the upscale is activated). Everything about this is shown clearly in the video, MUST WATCH!

4) NEW! A new shooting mode has been added for the 10x lens - ZOOM ZSL. It is needed for higher quality zoom, above 10x (its use is discussed below in the description of modes)

5) Reworked shadows in ZSL and NS modes. Now in ZSL the upper light capture works, and the lower one adjusts dynamically. As a result, photos are more predictable and natural in a variety of scenarios. This also applies to NS modes. HDR in them began to work better, and work with highlights was improved

6) reworked iso for all modes - now ZSL has become better at shooting when the light deteriorates, NS modes have become a little brighter at night (especially MAX HDR NS)

7) ASTRO NS mode (in addition to ASTRO shooting) now works as a night mode - for this you do not need to turn on the ASTRO button, but just take pictures in NS and that’s it.

8) updated black level on 3x and 10x lenses (thanks to JavaSabr for such an important improvement, which influenced the minimization of purple tints when the light deteriorated)

9) the frame buffer in ZSL has also been redesigned, and the number of frames in merging

10) post-processing parameters have been significantly improved for the best photo results and processing

11) SPORT NS modes have been improved - they have become more detailed and work a little better when the light gets worse (although I still recommend using this mode when there is sufficient lighting!

12) the display P3 option is enabled for better display of colors in the photo

13) White Balance has been improved and become more stable - it determines shades quite accurately, colors do not deviate into warm or cool shades. Became quite predictable

14) the contrast settings have been updated - they have become more dynamic, and Dehaze is also slightly raised for a more voluminous photo

15) various minor changes under the hood that affect the overall stability of the camera and the config as a whole

16) NEW! Improved design of icons and mode names in tiles for a better experience

Notes on use!

The config implements a fast upscaling mode - this is an interpolated resolution in order to increase the detail of images. To do this, you need to click on the lens itself (the button on the right that you have already selected, for example 1.0x). When you click on it, 1.0x will become 1.0s (upscale is turned on). It also turns off.

Also, exposure does not work normally in AGC9.2 (with the HDRNET button turned on). For exposure to work, you need to turn off this button at the top of the viewfinder (it lights up blue) and the exposure will work. But you should only do this if you need exposure! In general, I don’t recommend touching the HDRNET button (or, after editing the exposure, turn it on again as it was, there are many reasons for this)

Well, the ZOOM ZSL mode (available at 10x) is turned on like this: first turn on the 10x lens, then select and turn on this mode in the tile, then activate the upscale (previously described how to turn it on), and take a photo. It is better to use the mode from 15x and higher).

Summary

I would like to immediately say some information for the future - since I will soon be buying S24u, then for S23u configs will be released NOTICEFULLY less frequently. But I will still try to release it for these devices whenever possible. Don’t get me wrong - it’s just extremely inconvenient for me to do everything, because the S23u will no longer be on hand, and this imposes some restrictions on testing. Thank you all and good luck with your photos..
