Dual Camera mode / app

Anyone else notice the dual camera mode app is not available on the note 8?
Not even in the download area of camera app add one. It’s on my s8 plus.

There seems to be some confusion about this as well, since on the note 8 dual camera means using both rear facing cameras at the same time. I'm wondering if they can't use the old front/rear cameras at the same time because of the dual rear facing cameras? At any rate, we really liked the pic in pic mode, and hp\ope someone can mod it in, or samsung restores it in an update.

I forgot about this add on. This one's also missing, now? I was just about to post about the missing Surround Shot app. Is it just Samsung trying to push their 360 camera? Screw that noise, those two apps were awesome.
Can anyone here find the APK to add both Surround Shot and Dual Camera Mode (pic in pic mode).

this is all the shooting mode listed under mine.

Here you go my friend.. it's not on my TMOBILE variant either. Found it though and works fine

Anyone have the Selective focus mode working on N8? That mode on S7 was far better than this Live focus thing...

Nice! Any chance you'd also have the surround shot one?

i have it on my t mobile note 8, I had all the Samsung camera add ons downloaded on my s7 edge when so when I did a system restore, it downloaded them for me from the galaxy app store

I just tried installing it.. it looks like it works, as you see the picture in picture and can swap, but when you take a photo, the inset image does not show up. You'll also have to uninstall it in app manager.

If I am note mistaken it's either Shot&More or another version of the Burst Mode.
I remember seeing this function in action, at their Live Broadcast Release Preview Introduction for either the Note 5 or the S6, but I cant find any youtube video of it.

I was only able to find one of the MODE apk that work, the rest of them won't install

The mode I finally found for my photo that I posted is called Surround Shot that has several other features.
I found a youtube video about it and I am sharing a link.

https://youtu.be/_Z943NlJ64g?t=2m4s

OK found out alittle more about the app in reference to my photo that I post. The app was release back when S6 was release. The app was called Shot and More that was under the Surround Shot app. So it was an app within an app within another app. Crazy. I was able to install the app but it not functional. The phone or app freezes for about 15 seconds and gives you an option to send a notification about the failure to Samsung. I went ahead and just beg Samsung to bring that app and Live Broadcast back!!! I'm sure i'm not the only one missing these apps.
Funny thing is that Samsung beg for us to stay with them after the failure of the Note 7, and said they made the Note 8 better.
In my eyes, removing some of the great software apps is not making me happy either. I think it's time for me to dump Samsung and just go with Google Pixel 2 XL....
Them removing these software is a deal breaker for me.

Here's a better youtube video of the "Surround Shot > Shot & More > Drama shot" that was added into the phone. https://youtu.be/TwKJttyNGss?t=3m12s

Show the photos you took by Galaxy Note 9 here

Note 9 is supposed to have identical camera with note 8, but the algorithm improved!
please let us show the photos made by note 9

I am going to be very interested to see how much improved the Note 9 is over the S9 camera.
Edit - I have over 50 photos in my review. The photo part starts around 13 mins and 5 seconds. The start of the video is filmed using the front camera on the Note 9, and the last few minutes is video from the rear camera.

Note 9 camera is NOT identical with NOTE 8 camera. It is identical with S9 Plus camera - the biggest difference between the Note 9 and Note 8 camera is the NOte 9 has a Moving Aperture - like DSLR camera's have. The Note 8 does not have that. (it was introduced on the S9 Plus)
Combine that with the new AI stuff being added and I think it really does make the camera that much more special.

Why are low light pictures look more yellowish than my note 8. Note 8 colors are more accurate.

Pic

Here's one I took, in auto with Scene detection on. If you goto the first page in this thread, my review has 50 plus photos in it, like this below.
Feeding time #galaxynote9 by Gavin Fabiani-Laymond, on Flickr

Utah State Capitol

Gallo Pinto

Unedited JPEG, this was a slightly long exposure handheld shot
(apologies for the image not being rotated properly but that's an easy fix anyway)

First one is the first pic with the phone in auto the second is live focus. Lighting was on the dim side with live focus so it's a bit grainy but still a good pic to me.

Taken at Disneyland CA with auto mode on.

I was extremely impressed with the camera. This is a very challenging pic with the natural light coming from behind the subject. Surprisingly the camera was able to maintain the focus in the foreground as well as the clouds in the background.

green code on camera

I went into my camera and I noticed this green hacking code on my screen.. is this happening to anyone else??

What do you mean?

My folks thought it was a filter, said it looked cool. Totally wasn't, camera freaked out.
I took a pic of my phone with wife's phone, a screenshot, and took a pic from my phone. All showing the same effect.

Maybe a software update on camera will fix this random glitch

One of my pics taken( not the screen ) was green similar to that when using flash at night. I didn't think much of it at the time.

Did you guys try clearing data for camera?

Same for me also, but only using Camera PRO mode, Manual Focus. When I try to manually focus on object, green glitches will show on screen

The green you see when using manual pro is just a feature that lets you know its focused on that specific area.. It is not a glitch

Hi was this since new camera update?

It doesn't look normal...more like a software bug or hardware.

What kbrn is talking about (green cast while in manual focus) is a feature called "focus peaking", and, yes, the Note 9 does do it (as does the Note 8, and my wife's S8).
(But that's not what we're seeing in the OPs post since the pics are in Auto.)

Thanks for clarifying, that makes sense. Yes like I said it's likely a software or hardware issue for OP.

Looks like Samsung knows about this, on other forums they supposedly ask for patience, but I did not found an official announcement. Somebody knows?

Feels like they also improved overall shutter speed. Pics of moving objects look better now.

What a massive camera-focused update even if the size of the build isn't that big - just installed it from a UK device.
I'm going on holiday tomorrow (to the coast up North) so I'll be sure to take a few zoom pics again and will upload some photos in the other thread.

The refocus portrait photo in Album now works for me.

There is a now an ultra stabilization in video for the ultra wide angle lens, you select ultra stabization as normal which uses the normal wide lens and then there is a new icon on screen called Super Anti Shake Pro (icon P) this gives you better stabilization than normal for the ultra wide lens.

Odd why some of us are left out. Trials are not made available on my phone.
Any idea why this is happening?

It would be hard to compare differences without a side by side comparison, before and after the upgrade.
Video stabilization seems improved, for the rest I don t see differences...

You need to catch the time window when update is available in trial. It might be a day, it might be an evening. After that you won't get it anymore, wait for main update channel.
And then, if you are absolutely sure trial is on right now, you sometimes need to check it repeatedly few times, 'cause server connection is usually poor when trial starts and everyone is downloading it. This time it took me like 10 minutes to get the update downloading.
