The Galaxy S26 Ultra might be a lifeline for photography beginners like me
"Samsung widened the camera apertures in its flagship smartphone model to let in more light, thus producing clearer photos with richer detail. The 200MP lens now boasts a 47% larger aperture, opening up to F1.4 for brighter shots. Additionally, the 50MP telephoto lens captures 37% more light, opening up to F2.9."
"One feature that caught my eye during the presentation was a new tool being implemented in the editing suite. If your photo is poorly lit, the app can add an artificial light source to brighten the scene. You could, for example, add a softer secondary light to soften a model's face."
The Galaxy S26 Ultra delivers meaningful photography improvements despite maintaining the same lens configuration as its predecessor. Samsung widened camera apertures to capture significantly more light: the 200MP lens features a 47% larger aperture at F1.4, while the 50MP telephoto lens captures 37% more light at F2.9. These changes produce clearer photos with richer detail, particularly beneficial for night photography where advanced AI reduces noise. New editing capabilities allow users to add artificial light sources to poorly lit photos, enabling adjustments like softening facial features with secondary lighting. Preorders begin at $1,300.
