Why does the ringer on some Samsung cell phones start low and increase in volume?

Q. My old Samsung phone used to do this and new SGH-A257 that I got does this as well and its annoying. The phone receives a call and the ringer starts to ring at a low volume and gradually gets louder to whatever you have set to. Basically, even if you have set to the loudest, you might not hear it for the first 3-4 seconds when the phone receives the call.
My previous phone had the ascending ringtone setting, but this new SGH-A257 does not and it still does it.

A. I used to have a Samsung and if I remember rightly you have to go into Settings>ringtones and make sure the setting is set to ringing or normal NOT ascending, am sure you will find it.

How long does your samsung messenger touch battery last?

Q. Everyone that has the samsung messenger touch please comment below. How long does your battery last. This is the 2nd messenger touch i have had and both of them have really bad battery life. My will last 7 hours and half of that is when its in sleep mode. I barely even use it. Is this normal because I think its ridiculous.

A. The battery for the Samsung Messager is rated at 1000mah which should give you approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes of talk time and 52 hours of standby. The only way I could see your battery dieing as quickly as you say is if you are using many apps at once...it seems very short. You may just need to replace the battery. It is available here:

Another option is to purchase a backup battery. There is one on the web page I linked to above that is 1900mah which will give you an extra 6 and a half hours of talk time. Good luck!

What lenses are good for the samsung nx1000 to take blurry background photos?

Q. I'm new to photography and just recently purchased a samsung nx1000. It comes with a 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. I've been wanting to take pictures of people where the background is blurred while the subject is in clear focus. I did a little research and people have told me that to obtain a blurred background, a low aperture range is ideal? My lens only goes to 3.5 so I've been looking for more accessories to test out. Aside from the Samsung lenses, what other lenses is compatible (with converter)? I've bought an canon eos lens converter but don't know which canon lenses will work with the nx. Sorry for the longwinded explanation! But your opinion is much appreciated. Thanks!

A. First, try to get your money back on the "converter" you bought. Actually, its properly known as an adapter and while it will allow you to use a Canon EF mount lens on your Samsung NX lens mount camera body you'll have no auto focus and only limited metering options.

Second, go here and learn about Depth of Field (DOF):
http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm

DOF is defined as that area in front of and behind your subject that is in focus.

There are 3 factors that affect your DOF:

1) The focal length of the lens.
2) The aperture used.
3) The subject distance.

You can use the DOF Calculator at this site - http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html - to compute your DOF for any combination of the 3 factors imaginable. Here are a couple of examples:

50mm @ f5.6 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-8'' to 5'-5''. This means that anything from 0'-4'' in front of your subject (4'-8'' in front of your camera) to anything 0'-5'' behind your subject (5'-5'' in front of your camera) will be in focus. That is a reasonably shallow DOF.

50mm @ f16 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-3'' to 6'-2''. This means that anything from 0'-9'' in front of your subject (4'-3'' in front of your camera) to anything 1'-2'' behind your subject (6'-2'' in front of your camera) will be in focus.

In either example the background will be nicely out of focus as long as its a couple of feet behind your subject. You really don't need additional lenses although in my opinion the Samsung 60mm f2.8 Macro ED OIS SSA would be worth having.

So get your money back on that adapter and learn about DOF.

50mm @ f5.6 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-8'' to 5'-5''. This means that anything from 0'-4'' in front of your subject (4'-8'' in front of your camera) to anything 0'-5'' behind your subject (5'-5'' in front of your camera) will be in focus. That is a reasonably shallow DOF.

50mm @ f16 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-3'' to 6'-2''. This means that anything from 0'-9'' in front of your subject (4'-3'' in front of your camera) to anything 1'-2'' behind your subject (6'-2'' in front of your camera) will be in focus.

In either example the background will be nicely out of focus as long as its a couple of feet behind your subject. You really don't need additional lenses although in my opinion the Samsung 60mm f2.8 Macro ED OIS SSA would be worth having.

So get your money back on that adapter and learn about DOF.

Select "Add Folder" to add an entire folder of music/viedos/whatever to the Studio

Select "Add File" to add you a single file.

Afterwards, select all of the files you want to move to your S3 by ticking the boxes beside them, plug in you S3, and click the button under "Portable" (If you hover over this button for a second it should say "Transfer to Portable Device"

Good Luck, if you need any more help feel free to talk some more!

Q. While watching my 2 year old samsung LCD tv, several clusters of pixels (6 of them roughly 4"x4" each) began to gradually flicker rapidly back and fourth with different colors that do not match the rest of picture- it looks like little chunks of colorful static in several locations.

What lenses are good for the samsung nx1000 to take blurry background photos?

Q. I'm new to photography and just recently purchased a samsung nx1000. It comes with a 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. I've been wanting to take pictures of people where the background is blurred while the subject is in clear focus. I did a little research and people have told me that to obtain a blurred background, a low aperture range is ideal? My lens only goes to 3.5 so I've been looking for more accessories to test out. Aside from the Samsung lenses, what other lenses is compatible (with converter)? I've bought an canon eos lens converter but don't know which canon lenses will work with the nx. Sorry for the longwinded explanation! But your opinion is much appreciated. Thanks!

A. First, try to get your money back on the "converter" you bought. Actually, its properly known as an adapter and while it will allow you to use a Canon EF mount lens on your Samsung NX lens mount camera body you'll have no auto focus and only limited metering options.

Second, go here and learn about Depth of Field (DOF):
http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm

DOF is defined as that area in front of and behind your subject that is in focus.

There are 3 factors that affect your DOF:

1) The focal length of the lens.
2) The aperture used.
3) The subject distance.

You can use the DOF Calculator at this site - http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html - to compute your DOF for any combination of the 3 factors imaginable. Here are a couple of examples:

50mm @ f5.6 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-8'' to 5'-5''. This means that anything from 0'-4'' in front of your subject (4'-8'' in front of your camera) to anything 0'-5'' behind your subject (5'-5'' in front of your camera) will be in focus. That is a reasonably shallow DOF.

50mm @ f16 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-3'' to 6'-2''. This means that anything from 0'-9'' in front of your subject (4'-3'' in front of your camera) to anything 1'-2'' behind your subject (6'-2'' in front of your camera) will be in focus.

In either example the background will be nicely out of focus as long as its a couple of feet behind your subject. You really don't need additional lenses although in my opinion the Samsung 60mm f2.8 Macro ED OIS SSA would be worth having.

So get your money back on that adapter and learn about DOF.

What lenses are good for the samsung nx1000 to take blurry background photos?

Q. I'm new to photography and just recently purchased a samsung nx1000. It comes with a 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. I've been wanting to take pictures of people where the background is blurred while the subject is in clear focus. I did a little research and people have told me that to obtain a blurred background, a low aperture range is ideal? My lens only goes to 3.5 so I've been looking for more accessories to test out. Aside from the Samsung lenses, what other lenses is compatible (with converter)? I've bought an canon eos lens converter but don't know which canon lenses will work with the nx. Sorry for the longwinded explanation! But your opinion is much appreciated. Thanks!

A. First, try to get your money back on the "converter" you bought. Actually, its properly known as an adapter and while it will allow you to use a Canon EF mount lens on your Samsung NX lens mount camera body you'll have no auto focus and only limited metering options.

Second, go here and learn about Depth of Field (DOF):
http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm

DOF is defined as that area in front of and behind your subject that is in focus.

There are 3 factors that affect your DOF:

1) The focal length of the lens.
2) The aperture used.
3) The subject distance.

You can use the DOF Calculator at this site - http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html - to compute your DOF for any combination of the 3 factors imaginable. Here are a couple of examples:

50mm @ f5.6 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-8'' to 5'-5''. This means that anything from 0'-4'' in front of your subject (4'-8'' in front of your camera) to anything 0'-5'' behind your subject (5'-5'' in front of your camera) will be in focus. That is a reasonably shallow DOF.

50mm @ f16 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-3'' to 6'-2''. This means that anything from 0'-9'' in front of your subject (4'-3'' in front of your camera) to anything 1'-2'' behind your subject (6'-2'' in front of your camera) will be in focus.

In either example the background will be nicely out of focus as long as its a couple of feet behind your subject. You really don't need additional lenses although in my opinion the Samsung 60mm f2.8 Macro ED OIS SSA would be worth having.

So get your money back on that adapter and learn about DOF.

What lenses are good for the samsung nx1000 to take blurry background photos?

Q. I'm new to photography and just recently purchased a samsung nx1000. It comes with a 20-50mm f/3.5-5.6 lens. I've been wanting to take pictures of people where the background is blurred while the subject is in clear focus. I did a little research and people have told me that to obtain a blurred background, a low aperture range is ideal? My lens only goes to 3.5 so I've been looking for more accessories to test out. Aside from the Samsung lenses, what other lenses is compatible (with converter)? I've bought an canon eos lens converter but don't know which canon lenses will work with the nx. Sorry for the longwinded explanation! But your opinion is much appreciated. Thanks!

A. First, try to get your money back on the "converter" you bought. Actually, its properly known as an adapter and while it will allow you to use a Canon EF mount lens on your Samsung NX lens mount camera body you'll have no auto focus and only limited metering options.

Second, go here and learn about Depth of Field (DOF):
http://www.cambridgeincolour.com/tutorials/depth-of-field.htm

DOF is defined as that area in front of and behind your subject that is in focus.

There are 3 factors that affect your DOF:

1) The focal length of the lens.
2) The aperture used.
3) The subject distance.

You can use the DOF Calculator at this site - http://www.dofmaster.com/dofjs.html - to compute your DOF for any combination of the 3 factors imaginable. Here are a couple of examples:

50mm @ f5.6 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-8'' to 5'-5''. This means that anything from 0'-4'' in front of your subject (4'-8'' in front of your camera) to anything 0'-5'' behind your subject (5'-5'' in front of your camera) will be in focus. That is a reasonably shallow DOF.

50mm @ f16 focused on a subject at 5'-0'' DOF will be from 4'-3'' to 6'-2''. This means that anything from 0'-9'' in front of your subject (4'-3'' in front of your camera) to anything 1'-2'' behind your subject (6'-2'' in front of your camera) will be in focus.

In either example the background will be nicely out of focus as long as its a couple of feet behind your subject. You really don't need additional lenses although in my opinion the Samsung 60mm f2.8 Macro ED OIS SSA would be worth having.

So get your money back on that adapter and learn about DOF.

Select "Add File" to add you a single file.

Afterwards, select all of the files you want to move to your S3 by ticking the boxes beside them, plug in you S3, and click the button under "Portable" (If you hover over this button for a second it should say "Transfer to Portable Device"

Good Luck, if you need any more help feel free to talk some more!

How long does your samsung messenger touch battery last?

Q. Everyone that has the samsung messenger touch please comment below. How long does your battery last. This is the 2nd messenger touch i have had and both of them have really bad battery life. My will last 7 hours and half of that is when its in sleep mode. I barely even use it. Is this normal because I think its ridiculous.

A. The battery for the Samsung Messager is rated at 1000mah which should give you approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes of talk time and 52 hours of standby. The only way I could see your battery dieing as quickly as you say is if you are using many apps at once...it seems very short. You may just need to replace the battery. It is available here:

http://www.batteries4less.com/samsung/messager-touch-sch-r630

Another option is to purchase a backup battery. There is one on the web page I linked to above that is 1900mah which will give you an extra 6 and a half hours of talk time. Good luck!
