Phone cameras were WAY ahead of its time back then, we are already in 2024 with basically the same features with quad-bayer "high mp" sensors, phone camera innivation pretty much stagnated. Except for sony with their xperia lineup.

Once again a reminder that no matter how good the software gets, physical lenses are just really awesome. Sub 100 compact cams with real optics from 10 years ago can still make better zoom pics than modern phones for 1500 bucks.

Have you actually looked at large prints to say that? Granted this is a phone with compact camera put on it so it is not direct comparison with phones that we had back then but still I highly doubt it has the performance of a modern phone at least in unedited mode

[@heroninja1125]

@@shawonahmed5775 Yep and it will never be able to do a 9x zoom, or a 6x zoom or a 15x zoom as everything is fixed to one focal length. These cheap digital cameras are able to go for the full range (24mm-200mm and everything in between) whereas the phone cameras are fixed permanently at a certain focal length and have to use digital zooming to achieve all these other focal ranges.

[@pascal9280]

I just wish Samsung would do a revival with todays technology. Imagine what would be possible. 40x optical Zoom; 8k 60fps; 4k 240fps; 1080p 720fps combined with Galaxy AI.

Few years after S4 zoom, motorola launch the Moto Z, where you could attach a camera module on it. Also 10x zoom but with 4k videos. That was a sick design. Where people could buy mods what they wanted to improve their phones. Wish samsung do something like that nowadays, with huge zoom and DSLR quality for galaxy.

[@lesleyhaan116]

@@johnzoid74 yes you can do that it’s fun 😊

[@FuzzWoof]

It is and it isn't - if it was just a normal long exposure, the entire image would become progressively lighter, this works in a vaguely similar way to how the 'live composite' mode works in Olympus cameras, where it takes a base exposure then progressively adds only the very lightest parts of the image (like lights, stars etc) over a period of time while keeping the base exposure the same. Pretty crazy to see that in a phone really!

[@tonythebiggun914]

@@FuzzWoof Hm, maybe, i did similar photos with my Canon EOS350D, and i dont remember encountering such a problem. Maybe i took the photos in Tv mode(Exposure priority). And i agree about the phone. I have my Canon 70d record 1080p 30fps videos, and it's kind of crazy to see a mobile phone do that

Also YES I MISS THOSE LITTLE SOUNDS. I know some thought they were cringe back then, but they gave samsung so much more character than they do today.. Just the unlock sound gives me so much nostalgia.

Samsung should come out with an updated version of the zoom digicam form factor using their 200mp sensor. Digicam enthusiasts would love it

[@__JiG__SaW__]

They could never get away with this kind of stuff today, it's not aesthetically presentable and the moving parts pose a huge risk - which is exactly why they started adding multiple cameras instead. And digicam enthusiasts are really a niche audience that are just going to buy actual digital cameras anyway. Everyone already has a main phone, and this is simply not fit to be used as one.

@@methamphetamememcmeth3422 I mean, I did use the S4 Zoom back in the day as a secondary phone and it really is uncomfortably too thick. It's like pocketing a compact digital camera from the 2000s. The pictures it took were good, but I really didn't use the zoom feature often enough to justify having to carry this unwieldy bastard around everywhere. It just made me wish I had a normal sized phone with at least comparable image quality, but no crazy zoom to make it so big. And going back to the iPhone was exactly that.

[@Fromatic]

Those "old school" flashes were so much better, I remember being on nights out with my old Nokia cybershot and those kind of flashes would light up the whole club for a fraction of a second, so indoors in the dark with lots of movement you always got perfectly sharp and well lit photos, LEDs are nowhere near bright enough for that

[@bradavon]

Being able to change the battery was SO useful. When one was low you just swapped it out. Now you've gotta carry around a heavy external battery to charge up the battery in the phone. So much less inefficient. I saw plenty of people not knowing you could buy spare batteries though and would still be charging up the phone from an external battery.

[@PhazonBlaxor]

Luckily we are going back to swappable batteries soon enough (by 2027, another EU enforxed thing).

[@2727daqwid]

@@PhazonBlaxor I think the EU only sais the batteries will have to be "easily removable" as in, you could use a screwdriver or something. Idk if most companies won't just do malicious compliance (apple 100% will) by finding some loop hole to still make removing the battery annoying.

[@PhazonBlaxor]

@2727daqwid Actually, they also said batteries have to be easily replaceable with "no tool, a tool or set of tools that is supplied with the product or spare part, or basic tools." So "easily" replaceable really means easily here.

Ohh, and the Flips are fun too! I had the Flip3 from Samsung for 1.5 year, and I absolutely loved it. It did have issues with the screen, but I believe the new ones have resolved durability to the point you can daily them for 2 years at least, and Samsung will replace the screen for free with extended warranty - only downside is that flips are an expensive business lol. On the other hand you have that Motorola razor that I think is like 700-800$? That's still expensive, but closer to a reasonable price, around flagship price.

[@Gadgetonomy]

I owned this phone back in the day and upgraded to Samsung's next iteration, the *Galaxy K Zoom* , which I loved. I also owned the Galaxy Camera which again was ahead of its time. Samsung simply did not promote these devices enough for them to be truly popular, which is a shame because they took amazing pictures.

[@selohcin]

This looks incredible. If Samsung made an S24 version of this, I'd be the first in line to by one. Modern smartphones have come some way toward making up for this lack of an optical zoom feature with dedicated 3X and 5X telephoto lenses, but this still seems better.

[@Cooe.]

... You do realize that Samsung has already matched this thing's 10x optical zoom capabilities inside of a standard smartphone form factor with the S22/23 Ultra's periscope lenses, right??? O_o This form factor simply isn't necessary anymore for good optical zoom performance. Lens design and manufacturing has come a long, LOOOOOOONG way since this thing came out. This kind of phone design simply doesn't make sense anymore without a dramatic camera sensor size upgrade vs standard phones, and if you're doing that you're basically just going to end up with a full size DSLR running Android for its OS (which would be FLIPPIN' AWESOME, don't get me wrong!), not a smartphone with a zoom lens on it. 🤷

[@selohcin]

@@Cooe. Not quite. The S23 Ultra has a fixed 10X telephoto lens, but you can't precisely adjust it like you can with this phone. If you want full resolution at exactly 6.8X zoom, you can do that on this old phone. The S23 Ultra does not have that capability.

[@sakura-valley]

I actually had one and I loved it lol... It was both my daily and my camera for streaming... I mean, a 1080p 30fps / 720p 60 fps cam is all you need even today... What made it better was the 64gigs of storage and the fact that you could add another 128 gig sd card. Even after upgrading I kept that phone as a travel cam until it fully died on me...

I had this phone some years ago. And recently I just bought it again. As a phone is already an antique, but as a point and shoot camera is really fun to use. The compact size, the zoom ring, the myriad features and options and modes… Image quality isn’t the greatest, but it’s capable of some very nice shots. And really I just like it because it’s fun to use, fun to just shoot with it. I wished Samsung did a modern version of this, which won’t happen, I know. But it’s such a fun camera that is just nice to wish for an updated version 😊

[@Mlynoph]

Man, as others have pointed out, its amazing how much its held up for being a product of its time. It would definitely be cool to see an updated version of something like this with modern tech in a smartphone, just to see the results and how a mainly hardware supported camera system would compare to the AI infused software camera systems that are popular today. The only other example that i could think of that has done this with modern tech would be the xiaomi 12S Ultra concept phone which allowed you to install an additional lens on the rear cameras of the phone, just like a regular camera. I believe the quality was very good, but it was exceedingly expensive.

The "light trace feature" can be reproduced by going manually into the settings, decrease the shutter speed as low as possible, and adjust the ISO to fix the brightness if needed. You can reproduce this effect on pretty much any phone.

[@bradledford8877]

[@rein556]

The light trace is basically a long exposure, So the shutter stays wide open for some time and it captures the light trails of the headlights and the taillights of the fast moving cars, then with some image processing, It turns the long exposure shot into the output you saw

[@Guertena]

This kind of technology would be way more improved in actual days.

[@seishinnfox]

I was in college when this phone came out and my classmate had one. It was new and for some reason the lens got stuck and won't close no matter what so we went with her to some various repair shops to get it fixed but no one knew how to do it at that time. So I decided to borrow it from her and gently tap the lens against some steel bar while we were walking and it fixed it. 🤣 But despite it working again, she still had it replaced with an iPhone.

[@Subh8081]

This phone was awesome. It was more of a camera that allowed calling. Galaxy Zoom received Kit Kat update (Android 4.4) in 2014 as the last update. I briefly had this phone after Note 3 (another beast), but it attracted too much attention and looked goofy in places. Went for another iconic phone after that - Note Edge.

[@grilledshoe6872]

I love that sound

[@aquss33]

Light trace feature works exactly the same as astrophotography or any other long exposure photography type deal - it just opens the shutter for an extended period of time and takes in light over that time leaving those traces where the light went and as an added bonus upping night time image quality to a whole 'nother level by lowering iso therefore reducing noise.

[@user-qo2vt4ul6y]

I actually do love the sound

[@blueflicker]

I am still using my Galaxy S4 (in white) but not the Zoom... still works for me as I don't need anything fancy.. and I just had to change the battery a few months ago. lol Newer phones these days are way too big... and you can't beat that sound!

The light trace thing is just a long exposure, you can basically do it with any camera, just close the aperture, lower the iso and crank up the shutter time

[@MrBLaCktech]

u can do the light tracing trick on any phone just go to pro mode make ISO the lowest possible and lower the shatter speed so the phone will capture light for about 15 sec before generating the picture so that light trace is actually the positions that the car lamps were in that 15 secs

[@johnzoid74]

of course, but this phone is from 2012 and the feature was fun for its time. not trying to convince anyone to purchase this over an S24

[@Fr33Fall1ng]

Well light trace works by letting light enter the lenses for an extended amount of time when you press the shutter.

[@Dwrksied]

I suspect you are a pro and know everything there is about light trails already but, it's a cool feature where the shutter keeps open for a long time so more light could enter as such lights are seen as trails. Better to use in on the other lane as the high beam really messes up the shot. The tail lights on the other hands gives a magnificent result

[@johnzoid74]

light trace is just a really slow shutter speed, that's why the phone suggest you to use a tripod. you can do a really cool light painting with that features :D on a real camera just set your shutter speed to 15s or 30s depending on the light condition, and or if your phone have a long exposure or light trace mode, just use it

i dont know how to explain it but... the way the photos are taken by the camera look like they are from the 2010s, and the videos it takens are reminiscent of late 90s to early 2000s , its a digital camera photo style. It looks so fun and punchy - even the ratio of the picture, like you can tell its not taken by a smart phone from the current era.
