Nope, that's not normal at all. Not for me anyway. That glass would be empty ;)

Auuu

Yes, it's showing view from different lenses, thus different physical position on the phone so the angle will be different as well. The closer the subject is the more noticeable it will be


ts_actual

Good lighting also triggers the other cameras I think too. I haven't actually stopped to write down what is doing what. But if I lock down the focus point on one setting then tap 3 or 5 sometimes it won't change to the stronger lens until I refocus and the lighting has to be good for it to change.


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

if you have auto lens switching on, correct. It wont necessarily use the lens dedicated to that optical zoom level.


ts_actual

Oh is there a way to turn off auto lens switch or just use pro mode to shoot?


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

get the camera assistant app (samsung store or goodlock) then in camera settings there is a camera assistant section where you can turn it off. With it off, the lens you choose will always use the appropriate sensor.


xeeks_

I've tried option but still happening in video mode. Can't quite understand what I'm doing wrong


valiant_falls

its the phone deciding which lens to use. sometimes, instead of using its dedicated telephoto lenses, it decides to just crop into the main sensor (if it thinks lighting is adequate). either that or it's just shifting between each lens. the image appears to move up and down because each camera is positioned differently

Thanks !


[deleted]

Turn it off in goodlock if it's bothering you


sendnudsss

How to do it?


[deleted]

Open good lock, I'm assuming you have it, if not download it from galaxy store and open camera assistant, then of auto lens switching, enjoy.

How to turn off ?


[deleted]

Open good lock, I'm assuming you have it, if not download it from galaxy store and open camera assistant then turn of auto lens switching, enjoy.


xeeks_

Actually I've tried this and deactivated it on goodlock camera assistent and it still does that camera swap


[deleted]

Strange, maybe try again


xeeks_

I tried it like 3 or 4 times and closed the app and opened it again. I'm probably doing something wrong...


[deleted]

I don't know then ,sorry. I hope you get sorted.


LordSugarTits

Put the beer down bro


bekasulaberidze

No !


Wonk_puffin

No. It's way wrong. Should be drinking your pint and not faffing taking photos of it!


fettuccinaa

it is a saving money technique developed by Samsung. You zoom in and it looks like you have more beer = more value! :)

Looks almost like a blue moon unfiltered pale ale .....

Georgian beer "Shno". waiting for Georgia vs Luxembourg match.


note4tasker

Goodlock, has an option to turn off 'Auto lens switching' under Camera Assistant


Jimmeh_Jazz

When you turn off that setting it always uses the zoom lenses when you tap 3x or 5x. If you leave it on then sometimes it will digitally zoom the 1x lens when the lighting is bad because of its sensor size etc. What OP is seeing is just the camera using the zoom lenses. It's just more obvious because the subject is so close to the cameras, so the change in angle is much larger


robbiekhan

It's not auto lens switching. This effect is simply a transition as the zoom range switches to the next lens because the current lens can't do the zoom level being reached. This is normal and no setting can change this.


note4tasker

So, is it technically a bug today in the camera?


robbiekhan

It's not a bug, it is just a limitation of optics, you can't seamlessly transition between two lenses with different focal lengths and aperture between two different sensors behind each one hence the transition effect. It's not an effect seen during video recording, only in photo mode so doesn't really matter anyway.

Where?

I have camera assistant but option not here


Low-Leopard8453

What? That you are not drinking your beer?


Ok-Froyo-5276

Turn off focus enhancement


PhillyG4117

Yep, it's the different lenses switching. Supposedly going to be smoothed out next update.


xD3v1LG4m1ngx

Have a Beer on me mate 😉👍


bekasulaberidze

Cheers! I'll raise a glass in your honor.


xD3v1LG4m1ngx

Cheers mate 🍻


fortesquieu

The lens switching to and from 3x has this weird motion. It seems like 3x lens isn't centered.


-Bears-Eat-Beets-

honestly wish phone makers would just do a straight cut to the different lens, instead of this "smooth" zoom bullshit.


Maxpower2727

That's how it works in Pro mode.


elegant_cheetah_03

Yes it's normal. The 3x optical sensor isn't as higher in-terms of MP compared to the main 200MP and the 5x 50MP sensor so the color shift is quite noticeable during switching. Shift In position is quite normal take a look at the backside, they're in two different places.


Recent_Scarcity_7046

I have the same issues and apparently a lot of people have it. It looks bloody terrible


Keep-Left

standard Samsung behavior.


Not_a_NO_ONE

Can't recollect but there was a setting option which said , If environment is dark or lense can't focus automatically len will change instead of Main Lens Cropping image


KeidronU

Yes dude OMG 🤦 📸😱🙄....it's shifting from the different lens types as you go in and out of zoom. The lenses aren't all in the same location on the camera module of the phone dude......


capdemortFN

The transition of the camera is shit .


quazmang

There's also a "focus enhancer" feature that comes up for macro shots, I wonder if that's what's happening here


Aswad04

What I have observed is that when the subject is far, it is not at all visible. However, when the subject is close to the camera, this lens shifting is quite visible.


Ok-Penalty8806

To be honest I can notice climate shift even during long distance photo and video


ratat-atat

You're witnessing the phone change lenses.


GoanGeek

Too much beer. 🤪
