How to use 3x & 10x camera of Samsung S23 Ultra?

[nilsheidorn]

Hi!
It seems (when using Android camera) that i canot choose 3x or 10x camera of S23U.

Also the 2.2x zoom of my Oneplus is not selectable.

How comes?
Some other "generic" camera apps find all these cameras.

So can i tweak something to enable them or is it a limitation of the way the app access the cameras / gphoto?

Thanks for help!

Note when you work in Raw format there is no such thing as "zoom" - you can select ROI, for example 1/2 ROI = zoom * 2.
because there is no zoom lens of phones (at least most of them)

Only when using jpeg or mono format you can set a zoom, see

Hi!
Thanks for your quick answer!
I am not sure if there is a misunderstanding :-)
I was speaking of the other physical cameras of the S23U, one that has a approx 105mm and the other one 350mm.

The cameras offered in OLS are both fron cams (not of interest) and 2 of the 4 back cameras, the ultra wideangle and the "normal" 35mm equivalent, The 2 cameras offering a higher zoom are not offered.

Thank you!

Ok I get. What happens when you change zoom settings? Select different camera?

Generally if you use raw16 stream format you'll see change in zoom only if optical is involved.

The zoom modification should switch cameras.

I don't have a camera phone with optical zoom so it is hard to tell.

If it doesn't help please check enable camera debug it the enter menu and after you open a camera send the logs both camera and app logs under Android/media/org.opencivestacker/OpenLiveStacker/debug
