Samsung's latest smartphones are not only equipped with a powerful camera but also with a hidden feature named Expert RAW which is already creating a stir among the users for changing the way they take pictures. The mode which is found in the top Galaxy series such as the Galaxy S25 Ultra and Galaxy Z Flip 7 allows for getting professional pictures taken from the camera in shoot options that surpass the standard camera capabilities.
With the Expert RAW mode, one can shoot the full RAW file along with JPEGs, thus giving the photographer the flexibility in post-processing. Users can manipulate settings such as shutter speed, ISO, and color temperature, thus paving way for creative control that was previously given only to professional cameras.
One of the major advancements is in the area of astrophotography. The night mode on the Galaxy S25 Ultra and similar devices used to give varying results for star capture. With Expert RAW, longer exposures are possible which help in revealing more of the night sky while keeping the camera stable thus giving clearer and more detailed astrophotography shots. It has been reported by users of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 that they have been able to capture photos where there is a great difference between the sky and the ground.
One more remarkable characteristic is that the virtual ND filter mode made by the software which produces motion blur effects without the use of physical filters. By setting the shutter speeds low and keeping the phone steady, the users can take pictures of water or light with a smooth and vibrant look. The filter also plays a major role in daylight pictures by reducing the harshness of bright spots and by giving subtle motion effects.
The variable aperture mode in Expert RAW raises photography to another level by imitating the behavior of the lens aperture. Variable aperture does not give the same result as traditional portrait modes that uniformly blur backgrounds but instead fakes a more realistic depth-of-field effect, with some subjects in focus and being so sharp in the background.
Expert RAW gives the users a very diversified exposure management solution that includes creative modes. As a feature, the users can have the zebra pattern enabled for overexposed areas or the false color option to visualize the exposure ranges. The presets can even be saved, and this will let the photographers apply their favorite settings instantly without having to adjust them repeatedly.
By experts' advice, the Galaxy flagship users should take a look at the Expert RAW application in order to explore the camera features of their devices to the maximum. Frequent manual controls, advanced modes, and professional quality file outputs are the three aspects that position Samsung's hidden camera software as a powerful tool for both enthusiasts and casual users alike.
