The Astrophotography Mode will allow users to capture clear photos of constellations and dark sky activity. To use this mode, users need to turn on the new Sky Guide feature to pinpoint the locations of constellations, solar systems, and groups of stars. The device’s camera will then use advanced AI segmentation technology and multi-frame processing based on the movements of the celestial bodies to capture photos over a set time period. The Astrophotography Mode lets users choose a shutter speed between UW 30 sec / W 20 sec / T 15 sec / ST 4 sec.

On the contrary, Multiple Exposure Mode enables users to take multiple pictures of the same scene and overlay them on top of each other. The two new features can be accessed from the Special Photo section of the newer version of the Expert RAW camera app.

In addition, Samsung also announced the Camera Assistant app for the Galaxy S22. It gives users an option to enable or disable certain features in the stock camera app. It allows users to turn off auto HDR, soften pictures, auto switch lenses, record video in photo mode, and much more.
