Why do you need to understand Galaxy S9 camera settings?

Many Galaxy S9 and S9+ owners probably just start the camera app, shoot the photo, then share it.

It works well in most situations owing to the decent Auto mode in Galaxy S9 and S9+ cameras.

But sometimes, you may need to change some Galaxy S9 camera settings, e.g., using the timer, changing the video size to save storage, taking motion photos ……

Galaxy S9 camera settings allow you to customize the camera app so that you can take the desired photos and videos.

In the new Galaxy S9 camera app, the simplified interface means more customizations in Galaxy S9 camera settings.

How to access Galaxy S9 camera settings?

You can start the camera app in Galaxy S9 in different ways as explained in this guide.

  • Galaxy S9 camera quick launch.
  • The camera app shortcut on Galaxy S9 lock screen.
  • The camera app icon in Galaxy S9 home screen.
  • The camera app icon in Galaxy S9 apps screen.
  • Bixby voice command.
  • Google Assistant.

Once you are in Galaxy S9 camera app interface, you can tap the gear icon as shown below to open Galaxy S9 camera settings.

How to access Galaxy S9 camera settings?

How are Galaxy S9 camera settings organized?

As shown in the following 3 screenshots, Galaxy S9 camera settings are organized into 3 sections/groups.

  • Rear camera (#1-#6)

This section includes settings related to the rear camera only.

For Galaxy S9+, there are two rear cameras. But there are no separate settings for the individual rear camera.

In fact, Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9+ have the identical camera settings.

  • Front camera (#7-#13)

This section covers the front camera specific settings.

Some of the second level setting pages, e.g., timer and HDR settings,  are similar to those of the rear camera.

The purpose of such settings is to keep separate settings for the front and rear cameras.

  • Common (#14-#25)

The settings in this section apply to both the front and rear cameras.

Galaxy S9 camera settings

Understand and use Galaxy S9 camera settings

Corresponding to the numbers in the previous 3 screenshots, here are the explanations of Galaxy S9 camera settings.

1. Picture size for Galaxy S9/S9+ rear camera

The picture size in Galaxy S9 camera has two aspects:

  • the number of pixels (from 3.7MP to 12MP).
  • the aspect ratio (4:3, 16:9, 18.5:9 and 1:1) .

More pixels usually mean larger files, and therefore more storage space required. The default picture size for Galaxy S9 and S9+ is 12MP in 4:3 aspect ratio.

For Galaxy S9 and S9+, normally you should not worry about the picture size because of the large 64GB or 256 GB storage. You can also save photos to micro SD card as explained in this guide.

The aspect ratio determines the most suitable use of the photo:

  • 4:3 (default) is good for printing.
  • 16:9 is good for TV and smartphones.
  • 1:1 is good for web designers, or some special usages.
  • 18.5:9 is good for narrow phones with a screen of 18:9 or 18.5:9 aspect ratio.

So, the intended usage determines the desired picture size.

Typically, you should use as many pixels as possible.

Picture quality will not degrade if you scale down (from more pixels to fewer pixels) the picture. But if you scale it up, the quality of the new photo will usually be terrible.

If you are using the Pro camera mode, you can save the photos in RAW file format so that you can edit it later with some professional software. Please read this guide on how to use camera Pro mode on Galaxy S9 and S9+.

Understand and use Galaxy S9 camera settings Understand and use Galaxy S9 camera settings

2. Video size for Galaxy S9/S9+ rear camera

When you consider the video size for Galaxy S9/S9+ cameras, as shown above, you need to consider 3 aspects:

  • Video size (resolution). You can record up to 4K UHD videos with Galaxy S9 or S9+ rear cameras.
  • Aspect ratio. 3 aspect ratios, 16:9, 18.5:9 and 1:1, are supported.
  • Frame rate. For normal videos, you can shoot them in 30fps (frames per second) or 60fps. For the slow-motion mode, you can record FHD 1080p at 240fps or HD 720p at 960fps in the super slow-motion mode.

Although Galaxy S9 and S9+ support 4K HDR video playback, you cannot record HDR videos with Galaxy S9 or S9+ cameras.

Please note videos usually take a lot of space.

Galaxy S9 and S9+ may limit the length of the video in certain resolution/frame rates, for example, UHD at 60fps or 720p at 960fps. Such limitations are usually due to hardware restrictions.

3. Galaxy S9 camera timer settings

Samsung removed the timer icon in the camera app since Android Nougat.

In Galaxy S9 and S9+, you have to change camera timer in Galaxy S9 camera settings.

As shown in the screenshot below, by default, the camera timer is off.

You can set the timer to 2, 5 or 10 seconds.

Another option related to Galaxy S9 camera timer is the “Take 3 shots”, which allows you to take 3 pictures in sequence, instead of 1, when you use the timer.

Understand and use Galaxy S9 camera settings Understand and use Galaxy S9 camera settings

4. Galaxy S9 camera HDR settings

HDR (rich tone) can dramatically improve the photo quality when used.

By default, HDR will be automatically enabled based on lighting conditions and camera modes.

As shown above, you can change the Auto option to On so that HDR will always be used as long as the camera mode supports it.

Seldom, you should turn off HDR in Galaxy S9 camera settings.

5. Galaxy S9 camera tracking AF  settings

By default, tracking AF is off in Galaxy S9 and S9+.

You can turn it on or off in Galaxy S9 camera settings.

6. Galaxy S9 camera super slow-mo (super slow-motion mode) settings

The super slow-mo mode is one of the prominent new features in Galaxy S9 and S9+.

The resolution of the super slow-mo mode is fixed at HD 720p.

You can choose to take multiple videos or just one after you tap the recording button as shown below.

    I am trying to record art painting videos. So I am recording from above using the rear facing camera on my S9. I seem to think I am recording in landscape mode. However when I preview it on my phone it is in portrait mode. it is also in portrait mode when I load the video onto my pc. Is there a way to lock it in landscape mode to take this type of video from this angle?

    BTW This phone takes awesome pictures and videos and the voice recording is also amazing!

      I don’t think you can lock the video orientation in the recording.

    I recorded a crafting tutorial video with my phone secure in a stand. When viewing the video after, I noticed the image randomly jumps a couple inches to the left and up, then jumps back to the original position again. It does this a few times and is really distracting. I will have to redo the entire video! But why is it doing this?? And how do I prevent it in the future!?

      It sounds like an autofocus issue. You need to experiment (turn on and off) with the settings for 1). video stabilization and 2).tracking autofocus.

      Besides, for crafting or other processes that are not easy to repeat, people usually use at least two cameras. You get different views, and you can use another camera footage in case one of them get problems. Of course, you need some video editing software to compose a new video from multiple recordings.

          1. Are they grainy even when watching on the phone?
          2. When recording, in the preview screen, does it look normal?
