This is what happens when zooming from 1x to 5x or 10x in video mode. The focus hunting is terrible and sometimes doesn't focus at all. Not sure if this is happening since the latest update or not but my S23 Ultra doesn't have this issue at all. Anyone else ?

I wanted to upload the video test I did but for some reason, it's not letting me upload videos in replies...

But for video or photos for me, it works fine.

I'm also using lens protectors I bought from Spigen.

Are you using any? I know some cheaper brands have a black border around the camera lens protector and it covers part of the lens itself with the laser autofocus thing. That could play a part I believe.

If you don't use any lens cover, make sure the lens are clean. I'm not gonna bother telling you clear cache and what not cause I know you probably did that already. But for sure, something's wrong with that cam

Here are my video cam settings btw if it can help

My super steady mode is also off.1715559932319.jpg1715559932322.jpg

Hi GG2, that's sad to hear that this issue started after the update. Have you tried to perform perform Clear cache and Clear date for the camera app? 

Go to Settings > Tap on Apps and Scroll down to the camera > Tap on Storage > Clear Cache and Clear Data for the camera.

If it doesn't work please reset the camera app. Reset the Camera app > Open the Camera app, and then tap Settings > Swipe to and tap Reset settings, and then tap Reset.

If the above steps doesn't work, we kindly request you to send us an error report using Samsung members application.

Open the Samsung Members app, and then tap the + key at the bottom right > Tap Error reports > A message will populate for you to choose Always to send the system log data or Just this time. We recommend being connected to Wi-Fi network depending on your mobile network plan > You will be able to choose from Category on what issue your device might be experiencing among the list > Please enter issue details or attach a video or screenshot to make easier to understand. Then press Send icons to complete report.

All that was done prior posting this. I would like some feedback from other S24 users if it's the same.

The issue was my magnetic case interfering with the camera. I switched cases and everything is fine now. No issues with the phone or update.

Never got the email for the return... almost 6 months later and still waiting. I contacted them 4-5 times and nothing is happening so i gave up.
