Samsung A32 Camera Settings Interface
When it comes to camera settings, there are not many options available. There is only night mode and slow motion.
Pro mode is provided and only a few points can be adjusted, such as white balance and focus, but you cannot adjust many things. You can only use Pro mode for taking photos and it cannot be used for videos. In general, you get limited functions with this Samsung A32 smartphone.
Back Camera Outdoor - Ultra Wide Angle
When it comes to taking pictures with the ultra-wide angle, in general, it can be said that images taken with the ultra-wide angle are very good, as they handle foreground, background, and all other things very well, and they also handle colors and screen tone very well. However, in terms of detail and sharpness, they are not so good. As for the 8MP sensor, it provides adequate detail and sharpness.
Primary camera
Portrait mode
Talking about the image taken with the portrait mode, face detection is done very effectively. One thing I have noticed is that if the background of the image is the sky, it blurs it perfectly, but if there is sunlight, it cannot handle that part of the image effectively, although it handles the foreground, background, and screen tones very well. In general, if there is too much light, it overexposes that part of the image, but if there is not too much light, a good result can be obtained.
Ultra Wide Angle - Object Picture
Micro Camera
Outdoor Night
In low light conditions, if we talk about taking pictures with the rear camera without night mode on, they come quite well.
In low light conditions, if we talk about taking pictures with the rear camera with night mode on, I noticed a problem where when the sharpness is increased, a smudge appears on the face which is not present in the real condition. But surprisingly, this problem happens after night mode on the Samsung A32 smartphone.
If we talk about taking pictures in low light conditions, using the front camera in ultra wide-angle, they come with good results. After activating the night mode, an improvement in image quality is noticeable.
Video Recording Performance
The back camera has an 8MP sensor. Talking about the ultra wide-angle video recording of the back camera, you get pretty decent video quality, audio, and dynamic range. The video stabilizer is a little less in this mode, and when walking during recording, the video can be a little shaky. The maximum video recording is 1080p at 30fps.
Slow Motion
Front Camera Outdoor
As for taking pictures with the front camera outdoors, the pictures taken with the front camera handle colors, skin tone, and also handle the backlight coming into the image well. I really like the performance of the front camera in this situation.
Also, if the sunlight is in one direction and not the other, the front camera also handles those conditions well and you can see the output with a clear image.
Outdoor - Portrait mode
Front Camera Indoor
If we talk about the pictures taken with the front camera indoors, it handles all the things very well, it also handles the Screentone very effectively, and the background is also handled very well. The sharpness and the details also look pretty good.
Indoor - Portrait mode
Talking about the pictures taken in portrait mode with the front camera indoors, here there is no problem with age detection, the phone does it very well.
Indoor Artificial lightning
Ultra Wide Angle
Primary Camera
Taking pictures with the main camera in artificial lighting conditions, the performance of the main camera in these conditions is good. There is no problem here. The details that are lost in ultra-wide-angle are not lost here, and the colors that appear are accurate, without more overstated of the colors seen in real conditions.
Overall, in terms of taking pictures with the main camera in artificial lighting conditions, it handles all things very well. I liked the performance of the main camera in both conditions.
Object Picture
If we talk about taking pictures of some object in artificial lighting conditions, the performance of the camera is good. When the lighting drop, the performance of the camera also drop and there starts to be a lake detailing the problem.
Front Camera Video Recording Performance
The front camera can also record a maximum of 1080p@30fps. And, everything is the same video quality, audio, and dynamic range, they are well.
Conclusion
As for the results, the camera will not impress me that much. However, the performance of the main camera is good, be it indoors or outdoors.
The performance of the front camera is also good for me, but if the ultra wide-angle had 12MP, it would be better because you could see details more clearly. And talking about micro, I also find its performance well.
I have always liked one thing about Samsung, which is their dynamic range during the daytime. Samsung is always ahead when it comes to dynamic range, and for those who don't know what is dynamic range, you check it out in situations where there are lots of colors and lots of contrast.
If you are taking a picture where there is sun behind and a person standing below, a good camera will show the person correctly and handle the sunlight as well. If you have a poor-quality camera, the area with the sun will get too dark or the person will look too dark, and that's where the dynamic range is noticeable. I really liked the dynamic range of the back camera on this phone during the daytime.
If we talk about videos, this is a negative point because you can only record up to (1080p @ 30fps) here. There is no option for 1080p @ 60fps or 4k, and one of the reasons is that the processor given here is the MediaTek G80. This processor is not powerful to provide such high support.
Overall, if you look at the Samsung A32 smartphone camera I think the A32 camera is decent, but the camera is definitely not its strong point. If you are buying this smartphone for the camera, then this phone is not for you.
