Samsung Expert RAW: Understanding the ISO feature
ISO is an important feature of any camera or smartphone camera lens, it allows you to capture bright images in low light. As Samsung has introduced pro features for ultra-wide and Telephoto cameras with the Expert RAW app, it’s time that we explore ISO features that will help you to capture experts like ISO enhanced images.
Before we jump into the instructions let’s first learn more about ISO itself.
ISO in mobile cameras refers to light sensitivity or exposure. ISO is also one of the three elements used to control exposure, the other two are f/stop and shutter speed.
In regular use cases, you can take images on default camera mode but if you are looking for high exposure, you must have to visit manual settings. Although, high ISO captures the brightest possible images but too much ISO also brings grainy and sharp noises in the captured scenes.
Samsung Expert RAW ISO:
Samsung Expert RAW ISO supports three different modes for – Ultra wide angle, wide-angle, and Telephoto. You can choose to go Auto (which you can also do in standard camera mode) but since it’s a “Pro” mode, we must give it a Pro run.
- Ultra Wide Angle supports ISO from 400 to 3200
- Wide Angle supports ISO from 400 to 3200
- The telephoto mode also supports the same ISO range
However, all of these camera modes have different sensors. Therefore, the main camera (Wide angle) will capture more bright images than the other two modes.
Note:- all of these images have been taken in low light conditions:
Let’s look at the Wide-angle first:
Top at ISO – 400 – Bottom at ISO – 3200
Next comes Ultra Wide Angle:
Top at ISO – 400 – Bottom at ISO – 3200 but the images are catching less light due to a low light-sensitive sensor.
Eventually the Telephoto:
Top at ISO – 400 – Bottom at ISO – 3200. The telephoto camera not only gives us dark images but it also generates high noises on 3200.
The above-mentioned example is only related to showcasing, how the ISO is working on the current Expert RAW and we hope that you’ve got a clear understanding of it. However, you are free to play with this feature if you have got a supported device. If you want to know more about Expert RAW, follow the article linked below.

Samsung preps 2nm GAA tech for mass production
Samsung will reveal the third-gen GAA applied in the 2nm (SF2) process at the VLSI Symposium 2024 BusinessKorea reports. The company will likely commence mass production based on its next-gen (2nm) fabrication process next year.
High production costs and economic downturn benefitted TSMC in 3nm products. Apple’s latest chip is fabricated on a 3 nanometer process node, while the latest Snapdragon chips still utilize 4nm tech. Meanwhile, Samsung aims for third-gen GAA to apply in the 2nm process.
Well, Taiwan’s TSMC is also targeting GAA technology for 2nm products. Faster adoption and production are expected to push Samsung Foundry to gain clients. Competitive pricing would also benefit it bringing back consumers like Qualcomm for Snapdragon.
Samsung GAA
Samsung’s GAA is a next-gen transistor technology, which regulates and amplifies or switches off the flow of current within a semiconductor. It features a redesigned transistor architecture to overcome problems like current flow in smaller semiconductors to improve power efficiency.
