Samsung One UI is amazing! It has various features and customization options than any other smartphone present on the market. Meanwhile, its current custom software system – One UI 4.1 which is based on Android 12 gives you another level of experience while operating your phone.

On the other hand, Samsung’s biggest rival Apple iOS is also good. It has excellent camera quality, long life, simple UI, better RAM management, and others. But we cannot deny the fact that it doesn’t have as many customization options as Samsung has.

Samsung Galaxy users should use Super Steady Camera feature in these situations

Published

on

Samsung offers a Super Steady feature to the camera app for Galaxy devices. This feature compensates for camera shake more powerfully than VDIS offered by Samsung smartphones. Here you can see in which situations you should use the Super steady feature to capture a perfect and high-resolution shake-free video through the Samsung Camera app.

During activities that cause camera shake and dynamic motion, still, pictures may be taken faster than when the VDIS option is active. Therefore, using Super Steady is effective in situations where the photographer moves a lot or in some situations where a steady shot cannot be captured due to the dynamic movement of the photographer.

However, this mode uses a large amount of correction margin to keep the camera shake extremely high. So in a still situation or in a low-light environment, the exposure time becomes longer to capture the light, and motion blur caused by camera movement is reduced.

Situations where Super Steady Feature is recommended. 

  • Running
  • Situations where Dynamic movements occur

Situations to avoid using Super Steady

  • When there is a little movement of the photographer
  • When the light is dim

You can easily enable this feature, just need to open the Samsung Camera app >> Video Mode >> Tap on Palm shaped icon.
