I tried the new Galaxy AI video tracker on my Z Fold 8 — and it fixes my biggest problem with phone videos
The new Galaxy AI video tracker on the Samsung Z Fold 8 is designed to solve the problem of keeping the camera locked on a subject while recording videos. This feature, called My FanCam, uses AI to detect and follow a person in a video, making it easier to capture moments at concerts, games, or other events. The feature is easy to use and provides a new video that stays focused on the selected person, almost as if someone had tracked them with the camera the entire time.
