I just got the S24 Ultra (switched from S22 Ultra) and I'm having issues with AI editing every picture I take. I'm an amateur photographer and it makes me sad when it ruins pictures that didn't need editing. Is there a way to turn it off completely without using a 3rd party camera app? I've already minimized the settings on everything and it's still doing it.

Easiest way is to simply use pro mode. It'll take the picture in it's "RAW" format which has no post editing, however has the during photo ai enhancement. You could download Samsungs branch company app 'good lock' and use the camera assistant extension to 1. Turn off adaptive Pixle, 2. Turn off upscale zoom, and 3. Turn up picture softening which pretty much undoes the in the moment ai with post processing centered towards the opposite. It's not perfect but it's pretty close

In the settings you can turn off scene optimiser.

By default it'll still process the images to JPG and apply HDR.

If you didn't want that, whole bunch of apps available- easiest is to use Samsung Expert RAW.

Otherwise, On1 Raw and a bunch of others will do the same

The simplest solution to minimize AI enhancements in your photos is to use Pro Mode on your Samsung camera, which captures images in RAW format without heavy post-processing. For more customization, download Samsung's Good Lock app and use the Camera Assistant extension to:

  1. Turn off Adaptive Pixel (prevents automatic resolution changes).
  2. Turn off Upscale Zoom (disables digital zoom enhancements).
  3. Increase Picture Softening (reduces in-the-moment AI effects).

This combination will give you more control over your photos while reducing unwanted AI enhancements, though some processing may still occur.

Another thing is that the 12mp relies on ai more than the 50 and 200 and it shows in colors.

On the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, you can take several steps to minimize or turn off the AI enhancements that automatically edit your photos.
