1: Give us eye detect autofocus instead of just a face autofocus (that focuses on the tip of my nose or eyebrows).

2: ExpertRAW has a feature I would like to see in the regular cameras apps Pro Mode. It's can store exposure settings as quickly selectable profiles.

3: A lot of people are complaining about not being able to take images of moving subjects in low light. Two easy adjustments:

3a: How about adding 3 small symbols to the full auto mode that act like kind of a sport mode: 1st would be the normal mode with exposure settings the app uses now for non moving subjects, 2nd fast moving subject with a shutterspeed of maybe 1/250 and 3rd a symbol of for really fast moving situations, maybe a shutterspeed equivalent of 1/1000

3b: As I don't care about the auto mode because I like my photos in DNG format please also give us something for Pro Mode: Here a simple option to select a minimum shutterspeed would be helpful, we are in Pro Mode so we can expect people know what shutterspeed does what. A minimum shutterspeed is different to a fixed shutter speed, as a minimum shutter speed would get faster if there is enough light when ISO can't be lowered anymore, while the fixed shutterspeed (that is possible already) would just overexpose. So I hope you can see how this mode would be useful, as I could set a shutterspeed that wont give me motion blur, but also works under conditions with changing light situations.

4: Don't hide the other camera modules when I select 50MP/200MP as a resolution, I still want to be able to quickly switch to the other cameras without having to manually switch back to 12MP.

5: Allow the manual selection of ISO values below 50 in Pro Mode, as these produce the best details in the highres modes.

6: Please give us 200MP jpgs in Pro mode so we can use manual settings.

If you find my proposals useful, drop Samsung support an email too.

Unfortunately, I believe that less than 1/10 of 1% of all camera users would use any of these capabilities. Therefore, I am sure samsung, and other phone camera manufacturers will not take the time or the expense to try to develop these features.

Probably the same percentage that uses Pro Mode, still they put that in and did 80% of a good job. They could easily go full 100%
