I noticed when taking regular shots it seems like the 2x button only does a digital zoom not does not actually use the telephoto lens, is this how its supposed to work ?

It's for live focus, and 2x zoom + digital zoom. Depending on quality of lighting, either telephoto or wide angle lens will be used.

I'm a bit disappointed in the required zoom for super slo-mo. I think it's safe to assume there is no way to zoom out, so I'm wondering about the logic in forcing the zoom. My guess is that both cameras are used at the same time, shooting at 480fps, alternating frames, allowing for 960fps shooting when combined. I think some of the blurriness of the mode comes from having to apply a digital enlargement to the wide-angle camera so that it matches the telephoto lens. Any other guesses?
Dunno but I took a video of a hummingbird today and thought while neat the quality sucked.
Hi,
Any methods or mods to change the camera lens on the live view mode. Actually my live focus on note 9 uses the telephoto lens. I think is much better to take Photos with the telephoto lens.
Any idea to change the camera lens for telephoto lens.
I want this too... telephoto is better to take portrait photos.
The S10 5G actually gives you the option to use the wide or the telephoto as the primary lens for the live focus mode. Maybe it will come to the S10 and S10+ too in an update?
That's a miss in S10. I need it too.
It's bad enough that Samsung apparently doesn't allow any 3rd party apps to access the telephoto lens. Man, I just want to have some fun. Especially considering that the telephoto lens are noticeably better than the default "wide" lens in my opinion.
Is waiting for a S10 compatible version of Samsung's Expert RAW app my only option?
bump!
I have a question , the x90 pro plus have the AUTOFOCUS on the front camera (selfie camera) ?
No it doesn't. Also the 2x camera has no autofocus.
Only main camera, ultrawide and 3.5x have autofocus.

my ex x70 pro+ had autofocus on all rear cameras ( ultrawide , wide , 2x and 5x camera) Only the front camera didn't have autofocus, like x90 pro plus ... Bad news for me

Wtf are you talking
Main lens and ultra wide and also 3.5 all of these have auto focus only the 10x lens does not have it
Haha, first show me the 10x lens.... Then try again focussing if you like with manual focus and see which lenses exist and which have autofocus...

Dude, are you simple? He obviously means that you can't double tap to manual focus when using the 10x zoom. It just doesn't work. For 2x it does work.
I retried the 2x lens focus - now it's working. So sorry I was wrong about that. But before the trial update it clearly wasn't working in the gcam mods - I'm not finding them anymore right now - but focus was missing in camera2 api and some screenshots of that should still float around here - and I cannot bother with the stock camera too much anymore - I really hate both colour modes so I use gcam mainly now.
If the 3x zoom lens has autofocus, then a digital crop of it (10x) must have autofocus too. Simple, or do I need to dig deeper?
I checked on gsmarena and NOW , it show that ALL LENS on the rear of x90 pro plus have Autofocus
50.3 MP, f/1.8, 23mm (wide), 1.0"-type, 1.6µm, Dual Pixel PDAF, Laser AF, OIS
64 MP, f/3.5, 90mm (periscope telephoto), 1/2.0", 0.7µm, PDAF, OIS, 3.5x optical zoom
50 MP, f/1.6, 50mm (telephoto), 1/2.4", 0.7µm, AF, 2x optical zoom, OIS
48 MP, f/2.2, 14mm, 114˚ (ultrawide), 1/2.0", 0.8µm, AF
I had checked before opening this topic and it indicated 2x lens "NO AF"
For the selfie (front) is confimed that not have AF ... Bad
"No autofocus" is not bad. It means that it's a fixed focus lens. That's a special type of lens where a relatively wide range is always in focus. For a selfie camera, that's an advantage, because the subjects in selfies are usually within the same range and the camera does not need time to focus. No danger of missing the right moment (eyes closed etc.) or getting blurred images because of missed autofocus. Therefore the fixed focus lens is a better choice.
For me is bad ... My ex ex p40 pro have AF with 32mpx on front camera , my ex vivo x70 pro plus have 32mpx with no AF on front camera , the front camera of x90 pro plus is the same of x70 pro plus (Samsung S5KGD2 sensor)
Overall quality is quite low vs p40 pro , on the front camera ... For me
