Hey guys, my main IG account got compromised and disabled, so if you wanna show some love and check out my new main account @hallofbirds, that would be awesome. Thanks for all the support here on YT and over on Instagram, it really means a lot.
So I bought this phone specifically for this pro mode feature and to use it in Video shoots. So now the latest update came out and took it away. Samsung blames Google. I'll never buy another samsung device. I've been robbed.
5:56 when you focus you'll get the green thing which show's where the focus is. I got that when i bought the device now it doesn't show. Help if anybody know how to bring it back?
@@abdulrhemanqureshi2067 wait wat?? Even on s6?? Damnnnn same bro my mom have the s9 and my bro recently got s8. Both of them have it but same im the unlucky one here
Well I've got s8+ but I was not really using the pro mode that much but watching your video makes me realize that it's just fun to use it and see how the pictures turn out so good
Tech Triangle word, good luck bro. And pro mode doesnt mean you can use auto mode no more because it all depends on the situation. Quick pics are still the best in auto.
One thing I noticed on my Galaxy S7 camera is that there is stutter in pro mode and not in auto mode when panning. The manual settings do not seem to be able to smooth this out. For video purposes, I have to choose between the pro features that I want, or a smooth pan. Perhaps they have fixed this in newer phones.
Thank you so much for this. Im a doctor, which means i dont have time to do things i like but i really love taking pics and vids. Ur videos helps me in catching up on what im missing on cellular photography and videography. Much appreciated!!
Thank you. This was a really basic explanation - but it had the merit of calling my attention to what I've been ignoring until now. BTW, subscribed, to see if you have more in-depth stuff.
Samsung has DELIBERATELY removed the Pro mode for recording video... Unfortunately, they are not bringing it back. And no, third party apps cannot utilize the cameras full capability either. No more samsung for me and highly recommend people avoid it. If I wanted a basic stop/start camera I could have paid $100 for a cheaper old go pro or something. Or got an IPhone.
hi. can you explain auto focus area & metering? also, why does my exposure get "locked" or grayed out in pro mode? I thought when in manual mode you had total control. also, would love to see a video of you actually taking some different photos in pro mode and showing how you did it. thanks!
Can you touch on Metering? Sometimes when I click through the 3 settings I'll notice the image will change but most of the time nothing really changes. Can you elaborate what it is, when to use it, etc.
I have a question on my Samsung Galaxy S9 plus and the camera on top of pro mold and all that stuff but one is missing Auto? I don't know why it's not there
Hi. Thanks for sharing your experiences with us. Could you tell me what happened to the Pro Mode Video function on the Note 8? I cannot find it anymore.. .once it was there. Thank you very much. Regards Marcel
Long exposures can be useful for lots of things. Basically the longer your shutter speed, the more light you let in. So, it's very good for low light, night time, stars, light trails, and even during the day if you put a filter on then you can do long exposures to smooth out water and clouds, or make people disappear from an image and blur out passing cars. Lots of useful things. I have videos on doing all that stuff on my channel if you want to learn how to do it.
Do you have a video focusing on how to record on a note 8 with the front camera..I can't seem to get it right by videos are coming out grainy and washed out.. not true to color. I do make up videos and the colors are not coming through very good on camera
Unfortunately I don't, I never really use the front cameras on phones. I know the front cameras aren't quite as high res as the rear cameras, but the graininess sounds like it might be a high iso issue? Do you have enough light where you're filming indoors?
@@BrentHall yes I use natural light from 2 big windows... and when I had my note 5 the front camera videos were great.. but when I got my note 8 and used the video is different.. I am not sure if I dont have right settings .it almost seems to bright and I look washed out little or really bright ..I was just wondering if you knew what the best settings are for front face cameras when used for yotube videos
Yeah, I can see how some wouldn't like that. In my defense, that was a while ago, and I usually just fade the audio completely out when I talk now. Thanks for watching however much you made it through anyway though, and merry Christmas!
I have a S9+, which has HDR, but I can not figure out how to enable it in Pro-Mode. Is that actually impossible? In normal (automatic) mode it works fine in relevant situations
With Android 9, no pro mode for Videos any more!!! Cant believe it! No one noticed this bug?? They throwed this devices Generation back... Thanks the MF and AE function still there
Fabulous video Brent, this is exactly how I use Pro Mode on my Galaxy Note 8! I am so excited about this! If you haven't already, check out my most recent long exposure on Instagram, using my Note 8. It is the fourth picture and it turned out AMAZING! Thanks Brent for your videos!
Thanks! Now i'm more puzzled - F-stop settings NO Longer there! Have Not seen the 'Multi Dot' focus area available either after update. (last year?) Took HOURS to 'learning' - Now things Changed. I'm not good at this, but Undoing what i tried to learn is the pits! It's Different. Don't like it!
Hello sir, I watched your video on how to use the Camera pro mode option on Samsung galaxy s9 plus and I was forced to buy the S9 plus for video shooting. But I have some issues with the picture profile. My s9 plus picture profile icon is available but not highlighted, meaning it is not active. Also the picture profile in the photo mode is active , but lacks the different option to select from except options to customise that can be controlled. I needed your help. Thanks.
Nice video but the mode itself only is ok for situations with steady lighting and static shots. By the time you tune up the exposure a moving subject would be far away. I've got the phone hoping to see apeture priority there. I wish they rather did semi-manual controls Av, Tv, and locking the ISO, with exposure compensation that would work for many situations.
They took away the video option for pro mode a while back. They've since put it back, but I think they only did it in the S10 and newer models. If you don't have a pro mode for video then you might have to look into 3rd party apps for getting the exposure controls and such.
What is the setting after white balance?! Its only available if you have auto focus on. Every damm video I watch people just skip right over it and say that's it.
why when i want to take a picture with the pro mode, it takes a long time before it takes the picture, can i disable this? I would like to snap a picture quickly with the pro mode like the normal mode one
I don't have the plus, just the S9. I would like to know what's the camera mode for the version I have to get a good clear video or even a nice bright clear portrait???
Excuse me but why do we need raw if its blurry? I know its good for editing. But on my Samsung galaxy s7 the raw image is not as sharp as the normal, compressed image. Can someone explain?🤷🏻♂️
The phone, and any camera that it's in JPEG, applies both compression and sharpening, plus usually a bit of contrast to the image in camera, so the images can appear sharper at first glance, but if you're going to edit the raw files, then it's pretty easy to add in your own contrast and sharpening. IF the image is blurry then that sounds like a motion problem, which can be fixed by upping your shutter speed, using a tripod, or holding the phone steadier.
@@BrentHall Makes sence now, plus my eye was playing games with me because raw seems more sharper than before🤷🏻♂️. Great Video btw and thank you for your prompt reply👍🏻
There's an action photo mode, or you can use pro mode and make sure you have a fast shutter speed (> 1/500 sec), a wide open aperture (f/1.5), and as low of an iso as the light will allow you (base of 50 when possible).
Need advice. I have promode on my samsung galaxy note 9 About to photo fireworks. What would be the best settings to start with simce i have very limited time to get the picture.
Ideally, you'd want a tripod. Then I'd start with keeping your ISO as low as possible and try a shutter speed of a couple seconds or more. Aperture probably set to f/1.5.
It's just gonna depend on how much light there is in the photo. Adjusting the shutter speed will probably be your best bet for making the right exposure and keeping the ISO down.
matrix metering is where the camera averages the light values from a larger portion of the screen and gives you an exposure reading based on that average. Most cameras are set to that by default.
Thanks David! Your camera might be in one of the beauty selfie modes by default. When you're using the front facing camera you'll see an icon that looks like 3 little stars in the lower right of the screen. If you click on that it will open up a bunch of different options for beauty-like presets. You can make sure that "original" is selected.

The only solutions are to either roll it back to oreo manually or to use a third party app. Samsung likely won't bring it back.
@@BrentHall can you tell the name of the third party apps
It's back

Too bad Pro Mode doesn't feature a histogram option. Getting a proper exposure would be a lot easier and quicker.

i have the note 9, can you use the tele lens in Pro-mode?
Yes you can! Just pinch zoom in to 2X. If you zoom past that though, it'll be a digital zoom, which will greatly reduce the image quality.
The profile look filters why don't I have them on my S9+ but only manual mode? Camera is running latest update

There's an action photo mode, or you can use pro mode and make sure you have a fast shutter speed (> 1/500 sec), a wide open aperture (f/1.5), and as low of an iso as the light will allow you (base of 50 when possible).

@@BrentHall okay lets say i set them there, and want a more vivid firework what one should i adjust thank you for responding i appreciate it.
It's just gonna depend on how much light there is in the photo. Adjusting the shutter speed will probably be your best bet for making the right exposure and keeping the ISO down.
Why cant i change the exposure.
Set the AF to AUTO
In my phone I dont have shutter speed help mee
Shit i went to the waterfalls 4 days ago
please explain that matrix thing you did in focus option
matrix metering is where the camera averages the light values from a larger portion of the screen and gives you an exposure reading based on that average. Most cameras are set to that by default.
@@BrentHall thanks 😊
What to Activate Aperture option ?
Click on the shutter speed icon, and then the aperture number will show up there and you can select which aperture you want to use.

Thanks David! Your camera might be in one of the beauty selfie modes by default. When you're using the front facing camera you'll see an icon that looks like 3 little stars in the lower right of the screen. If you click on that it will open up a bunch of different options for beauty-like presets. You can make sure that "original" is selected.
