Questions
Frequently asked questions about post-processing:
① How do I turn off automatic correction for photos?
② How can I make the preview in Camera app when taking a photo match the final image?
③ The colors change when I open the photo in Gallery app. What should I do?
Answers
If you want to capture photos without HDR (High Dynamic Range), switch to Pro Mode.
If you want to use Photo mode - In the Camera app settings, disable Scene optimiser and set the Quality optimisation option to Minimum. This will help you capture photos with minimal post-processing. Also, this will reduce the number of frames required to improve image quality, resulting in faster shooting speed. You'll notice a noticeable difference in image processing compared to before.
Additionally, we recommend turning off Auto HDR and Picture softening features in the Camera Assistant app and Super HDR in Advanced features in Settings app. This will allow you to capture photos without automatic correction.
Finally, you can add a custom camera widget to your home screen to instantly access your desired shooting mode and even set an album to save your photos. We recommend setting the widget to start Camera app in Pro Mode If you want to capture photos without post-processing.

① Pro Mode (HDR feature is not applied, without changing additional settings)

Interesting and thanks for a detailed guide and also recommendations, i was playing with the settings recently and posted some findings, but they focused on the varying level of IO - Samsung - Camera Intelligent Optimisation Comaprison - Samsung Community
Will try your settings as just assumed Auto HDR was best on.

Sorry i decided after testing this is not for me.
I prefer to point, shoot and post, not point, point, repoint, edit, edit, edit, edit and post.
I think this guide is great for those who like to edit, basically Auto vs Pro mode.
