Hey guys, welcome back. In this Setup Essentials episode, I'm breaking down my favorite camera features on the Galaxy Z Flip 7
0:06
because it's easily the phone I've had the most fun using this year. So if you picked one up or thinking about it, I'm walking you through what to try first to make the most out of the Z Flip 7's cameras
0:16
Let's get into it. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 has some serious performance gains, camera refinements, and software tools to make it more like a creator-ready device
0:25
right out of the box compared to the Z Flip 6. You're still getting that compact flip design, but a larger 4.1-inch cover screen, which means you can do a lot more with your content
0:35
Specs-wise, the cameras are actually the same. 50-megapixel main, 12-megapixel ultrawide, and 10-megapixel selfie
0:41
But thanks to Samsung's Pro Visual Engine, the final results and editing capabilities are a major step up
0:47
What Samsung done here with software and processing makes the phone super usable and fun for getting awesome photos and videos
0:55
So let's start with the cover screen preview. You flip the phone, close halfway
0:59
and your outer screen becomes a live camera monitor. So whether you're vlogging, filming a TikTok
1:03
or framing the perfect selfie, you can see exactly what you doing I love this No guessing no wasted takes and it the kind of thing for me that continues to make the case for flip phones To get the cover screen preview you got to launch the camera app first Once you do this you got to fold the phone in half like this halfway
1:20
and then there's a button here for the cover screen preview. You tap that, and it activates
1:25
the screen on the back. It all starts with the rear cameras. Z Flip 7 keeps things simple with
1:32
just two cameras in the back, but what's fascinating is how the main sensor mimics
1:35
telephoto. Thanks to a high resolution sensor and clever cropping, you still get zoomed in shots with
1:41
sharp detail and natural looking depth. You won't match a true periscope lens, but for portraits or
1:46
quick zooms without distortion, this definitely gets the job done. You can totally just start
1:53
taking pictures with the default settings, but exploring the manual mode will give you a lot
1:57
more control over what you capture. In the camera app, swipe over to Pro or Pro Video mode and you'll
2:03
unlock full manual controls. Adjust ISO, white balance, shutter speed, and even focus right from
2:09
the Z Flip 7's native app. Whether you're shooting in tricky lighting conditions or trying to match
2:14
shots from another camera this gives you way more flexibility Speaking of flexibility there now log recording on the Galaxy Z Flip 7 which means your videos are captured in a flat color profile that gives you tons of editing headroom You can tweak the color contrast shadows highlights or even apply a LUT for that cinematic finish If you like
2:33
having control in post, this is a must-try feature, and I'm glad that Samsung didn't keep it exclusive
2:38
to the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The Z Flip 7 supports 4K video at 60 frames per second, which means you're
2:44
capturing a ton of detail and you've got room to crop or stabilize in editing
2:49
Or if you want that smooth, slow-mo look, you can play it back at half the speed
2:53
Either way, it looks great and sounds clean. More of that in a second. One of my favorite features to use on the Z Flip 7 is portrait video mode
3:00
It blurs out the background, keeps faces in focus, giving your videos a shallow depth-of-field look
3:06
even if you're just shooting in your kitchen or on a walk. It adds instant cinematic polish to any talking heads or vlogs
3:14
In addition to portrait video, you're going to want to use tracking autofocus
3:19
Whether you're shooting someone who moves around, or maybe you're vlogging while walking and talking
3:24
tracking autofocus is such a game changer. It locks focus on your subject and stays with them
3:29
Even if they shift in the frame you find this under Pro Video or Advanced Settings While you could pair a wireless microphone to the Galaxy Z Flip 7 whenever you want
3:42
there's now a built-in way to make vocals sound super clear. This phone gets the audio race feature that first debuted in Galaxy S25
3:49
and it's basically a clean up tool for your video. If that perfect take got interrupted by siren or wind noise
3:55
you can remove the unwanted sounds in your clip right from the gallery. It honestly makes a big difference, and it's a really impressive example of what Samsung's processing can do
4:04
All right, that wraps up the must-try camera features on the Galaxy Z Flip 7
4:08
For me, the combo of the bigger cover screen preview, pro controls, and audio eraser support makes this the most creator-friendly Z Flip yet
4:16
