The front camera of the Samsung Galaxy S10 could be presenting some problems when we use third-party applications that include a camera section, such as Instagram or Snapchat. When we open any of these apps and access the camera from it, we find that the image it offers is much more enlarged than if we opened it with the Samsung system application itself.
An error that arises when using the internal camera of third-party apps
When we open the front camera of the Samsung Galaxy S10 we find that the image has been adapted, by the system itself, so that we can take a more appropriate selfie. For this, the image is a little closer to the face instead of offering a 'real' image of the entire field that could be covered with the same sensor. Because of this decision, some third-party applications such as the aforementioned Instagram or Snapchat are using a cropped version of the image instead of offering the full image that the sensor could show in reality. In addition, it is the image that gives it definitively, it is impossible to zoom out to get away from the image and that it can cover more than what we see, as would be normal.
What happen? That there are people who want to take a selfie with friends from the Instagram account and cannot because the image does not give of itself, it is not capable of covering a large amount of space so that they can all appear in the same photo. They must first take the image with the official Samsung camera application and then share the photo on Instagram, edit it and publish it.
According to Android Police, the first media to echo this situation, it is not yet known exactly whether the problem is typical of the Samsung camera application or it is up to the developers to update their applications to adapt them and get the images from both apps match. An error, by the way, that should be corrected as soon as possible since many users have already reported it in different media.
Recall that the front camera of the Samsung Galaxy S10 range is the same in all three models. It consists of a 10 megapixel sensor with focal aperture f / 1.9 and Dual Pixel focus to improve the sharpness of moving images.
