Samsung had time to experiment with 3 or even 4 rooms on the midrange phones of last year, trying to see what caught up in the public and in what sensors it is worth investing.The trend of the Wide Angle rooms has climbed until it has become mandatory.It is no longer to play with Bokeh, and only the optical zoom remained optional.Samsung Galaxy A50 is a 3 -room back phone, with 25 megapixel main sensor, with f/1.7 opening and PDAF.
Video-Review Samsung Galaxy A50, Camera Camera
It also comes with an 8 -megapixel secondary camera, which has a fixed and ultra wide focus, accompanied by a 5 megapixel camera for Bokeh (deep catch).Obviously we also have an LED flash, and in front we find a 25 megapixel selfie room, with f/1.7 opening, but only with fixed focus.The camera application receives the new interface seen on the Galaxy S10, with a separate video capture and special shortcuts for passing between cameras.
There are also live focus for bokeh, different degrees of blur, plus the classic would already and pro with white balance, ISO or exposure adjustments.Even the automatic optimization of the scenes is here, and as a shortcoming I would say that the change of resolution is not done in a classic way.That is, instead of ticking megapixels, you simply choose 3: 4h to take 25 megapixel pictures, and 3: 4 means 12 MP.
Going to the photos itself, they were made on a hot day of May, in which the wells in the center of Bucharest were just started.I had very clear catches, with some relevant colors and details ok.At the zoom, however, I did not appreciate the details so much.The color of the water from the wells, but also the shades of heaven have shown well with both the main and ultra wide room, which is little.For a long time the Ultra Wide cameras were curbing the image and deformed their colors.
Even with the sun in front of the cloud they looked good and I didn't have so many over -exposed frames as I found on the Huawei P30 Lite or even Motorola One Vision.At the selfie I was disappointed.Even if the girl's texture is ok, we have a room that does not know what to focus.The Selfie Bokeh separated me quite well from the background, being the only situation in which I at least knew it focused on my face.
At Selfie Huawei P30 Lite I would say that it is over and Motorola One Vision can also issue some claims.Not to understand that the selfies are bad.They have ok colors, they are quite clear, but they are not well focused.And that I still remembered the rival, the Huawei P30 Lite stays even better at the zoom, that is clear.The panorama has a resolution of 10640 x 1776 pixels here, does not curb and keep the colors within decent calibration limits.
Focusing at the foreground was made excellent and all those colored flowers in the foreground were convincing.And the Bokeh was quite convincing, at the same flowers, effectively cutting what was interested and fading what's back.All the shades in the courtyard of St. Anthony have delighted me and I tell you from now that many phones would have had problems with the exposure in such a sunny day.Not this Galaxy A50.
I also like that capture way in which you leave only the colored flowers and the background is white/black, and the HDR did its job, bringing to light the details of sculptures or buildings.Allow me not to be a mega impressed by the photo capture of the food.Those pasta came out well only after many attempts and even so they had unexplained areas.
Capture is a bit dark inside I would say.
Going to the low light capture, here we have some wrong shades.Things are a bit pink or red, which is not ok.It's not the Huawei P30 Lite at night, but it doesn't have so decalibrated colors.Stay calm though, not all the frames are so.Some are the normal yellow we are used to, from street lighting.If you go to the Ultra Wide room, you will see the haloes of the bulbs, much increased and an amount of blur too large towards the side of the frame.The culmination is that everything is no longer so red.
Some captures with the main room even look ok and I mean color, clarity, even details.Only once at about 5-6 pictures there is a red one ... Galaxy A50 does not cope with the strong lights and we see this at the chain logo, where we almost do not distinguish what writes on the symbol.I like that I have caught a lot of light for a midrange phone, even in the traditionally dark areas in the center of Timisoara.
I am satisfied with clarity and even Bokeh to say, given the night conditions.Basically, if they were not the reddish and ultra -wide photos with swollen haloes and blurred edges, we would be in 10 midrange phones.
And now we go to filming, where we have no Full HD at 60 FPS nor 4K, which offers Moto One Vision and Huawei P30 Lite rivals (only FHD 60 FPS).Videone capture offers ok clarity, but the green is a bit burned by the sun, overexposed.I also had some refocus in the first clip and a weak zoom.Things started to look better in the other clips and I appreciated the colors and clarity.
Even the Ultra Wide shooting did not look bad at all, not deforming the colors too much.Video capture Selfie has enough details, the colors and texture of the girl are good, except that the capture is not too well stabilized and a good part of the background is burned.You will be surprised, but I liked how the phone stabilizes the shoot on the go.It's over the Huawei P30 Lite and even over Motorola One Vision, which, although boasting about Ois, is not as well at the video capture.
The uncertainty from focus sometimes is easily annoying, but I would put it on the rush of my panorama.I don't know if you saw, but each video starts with a small refocus.On the other hand, I still filmed cars on the go and focused on them, so it is with a shower and turned.I declare myself more thanks to this video capture than at the Huawei P30 Lite, but at large lines, excluding the stabilization of the One Vision can be beaten with this device.
I want to emphasize something: Xperia XA2 and Nokia 7 Plus would pose problems to all these phones.Go and see their video samples to understand what they say.As for the low light video capture, it is almost not worth mentioning.There is a lot of flicker and trembling image, an almost acceptable zoom and fluctuating shades.The halos are the bells, but not exaggerated, but overall you cannot use this capture as a memory.
Not that Moto One Vision or Huawei P30 Lite would be better ... unfortunate the lack of 4K and FHD 60 FPS, but I understood that through the Third Party applications you activate them.
