The issue with the debate is that every digital photo – even a raw file – is a fabrication of some kind. But it does counter the suggestion that it's simply slapping extra detail and texture over your shots en masse. Samsung's response isn't detailed enough to settle the debate about whether or not its Space Zoom photos are 'fake', as that's really a matter of opinion. Tellingly, Samsung gives a nod to the Reddit controversy at the end of its blog post, where it says that 'it continues to improve Scene Optimizer to reduce any potential confusion that may occur between the act of taking a picture of the real moon and an image of the moon'.Ī photo of the moon taken by TechRadar's US Mobiles Editor Philip Berne with the Samsung Galaxy S23 (Image credit: Future / Philip Berne)

But Samsung still disputes that this detail is simply applied to or overlayed on Space Zoom moon photos. We still don't know exactly what is happening in that engine, and it's fair to say that extra moon detail is conjured from the very limited information captured by your Galaxy's camera.

That's because it uses multi-frame synthesis, deep learning and what Samsung mysteriously calls a 'detail improvement engine' to produce the impressive final results. r/telescopes aims to be a high quality sub where users can discuss all things telescopes and astronomy, but allowing such repetitive and low-effort posts will drastically lower the overall quality of the sub.So where does this leave us? The boring answer is that all photography is on a sliding scale between the so-called 'real' kind – photons hitting a camera sensor and being converted into an electrical signal – and the 'fake' kind that Samsung has again been accused of in this latest controversy.ĪI-powered modes like Samsung's latest Scene Optimizer, which has been producing moon shots like the one below since the Samsung Galaxy S21, undoubtedly push the photography towards the more artificial end of that scale.
