Samsung Expert RAW makers explain development, capabilities
When it comes to professional accuracy and everyday contingency, the Galaxy S22 is Samsung’s most powerful device for capturing great shots every time. This is thanks to the exclusive Samsung Expert RAW app of the smartphone.
This app is compatible with the Galaxy S22 series and the Galaxy S21 Ultra. The Expert Raw is a comprehensive suite of in-camera editing tools that will transform your pocket camera into a DSLR-like experience.
Similar to many great innovations by Samsung, Expert RAW is a collective effort – inspired by valuable feedback from Samsung experts and Galaxy users. To learn more about the Expert RAW experience, talk to experts at Samsung Research who collaborated on the Samsung Newsroom.
Read on to see what Hamid Shaikh, Head of the Intelligent Imaging Team at Samsung Research America’s (SRA) Mobile Processor Innovation (MPI) Lab, and Girish Kulkarni, Head of Camera Solutions Group at Samsung R&D Institute India-Bangalore (SRI-B), had something to say about this innovative camera collaboration.
What does the Expert Raw app do? What are the main benefits to consumers?
Samsung Expert RAW app really gives customers the ability to have complete control over their mobile photography experience like a professional photographer. The app captures more comprehensive data for each image, which is used by professional photographers to enhance photos and enhance them artistically with editing software such as the go-to app Adobe Lightroom.
To enhance the overall camera experience, Samsung teamed up with Adobe to integrate Expert RAW with Lightroom. The result is that photographers have complete control over their creative experience. Inexperienced photographers can also use automatic set points for camera controls, and then use Samsung-specific default values in the lightroom. In both cases, the tight integration of the two apps provides a pleasant experience.
What makes Expert RAW such an important release for mobile photography in general?
The camera experience is one of the most important experiences that a user gets with their smartphone. Samsung is at the forefront of camera quality and is always eager to bridge the gap between consumers and professional/unprofessional photographers.
What role did the MPI lab play in the development of Expert Raw?
Whenever Samsung creates a new customer experience, the company must consider and overcome many critical engineering challenges. MPI Lab developed the core idea behind Expert RAW and its technologies and they know this is a sustainable challenge.
