The Nightography Zoom feature enhances low-light photography, providing clearer zoom capabilities even in challenging conditions.

Video Recording Prowess: Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen3 chipset, the Galaxy S24 Ultra allows seamless switching between all cameras while recording 4K 60fps videos. It can capture 50MP hi-res 8K videos and photos in both 1x and 5x optical zoom modes. The Advanced Professional Video (APV) codec supports 10 to 12-bit 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 subsampling, revolutionizing post-processing possibilities.

Innovative Technologies: Samsung introduces ISOCELL Zoom Anyplace, allowing automatic subject tracking and cropping, and E2E AI Remosaic for refined image quality from the 200MP sensor.
