As stated in the first reply, lockdown mode has been there since Pie and its not Samsung specific. The only new notable feature from the July update was night mode which is decent and super slow-mo option in camera.

Night mode and Super Slow-mo were notable in June's update so it's not a new feature,
I'm wondering if it's got better in July update, anyone tested ?

While technically true, my region got June update as "July" update. There was no June update here so for me night mode and slow-mo only appeared after July update. Cheers!

Samsung Galaxy A50 June Security Update Brings Night Mode, Slow-Mo Video Recording

The Galaxy A50 got the June security update in India earlier this week, promising the usual stability improvements along with a variety of security patches. But as we’ve been tipped by one of our readers via Twitter, the update appears to include a couple of extra features that go by unmentioned in the changelog. Specifically, firmware version A505FDDU2ASF2 seems to bring along Night mode and Super Slow-mo video recording. In addition to that, the phone can now scan QR codes from the camera app without requiring Bixby Vision, a feature that recently came to the Galaxy S9, Galaxy Note 9 and the Galaxy S10 as well.
Galaxy A50 owners in India who have updated to the June security patch but don’t have access to these two new camera features should try resetting their camera settings. This was also the case for the Galaxy A30 and Galaxy A40, which received a regular slow-motion camera mode through a software update and required a reset of the camera settings before the mode was actually usable. You can reset camera settings by opening the camera app, tapping the gear icon to open camera settings, then hitting the Reset settings option found by scrolling all the way to the bottom.
The update also includes fixes to a variety of vulnerabilities; some found in the Android operating system while others are affecting Samsung’s own software experience. You can read all about them in the detailed June 2019 security patch report.
Readers who have not yet received the update on the Galaxy A50 in India should try navigating to the Settings » Software update menu and tap the Download and install option. Otherwise, users can also download the update manually from our firmware database and update the smartphone using Samsung Smart Switch on a computer.
Super slow-mo video? What's that, because we already have slow-mo now.

It doesn't matter if he copy pasted the link, atleast he shared it before you even stated about the link. You don't always have to bang on, peace out.
Btw, this update also brings super steady mode in video recording, which is a great feature to have.
( You'll need to reset the camera to get nightmode, Super slo mo & Super steady video as suggested )
There's also a new metering mode added in pro mode, Not sure if it was there previously!
Wifi calling toggle is also added in notifications bar.
Can't fine the Qr code scanner toggle in the notification bar.
Cheers

There is a reason why every online article attributes the source. All I requested him to do was to include the source link as it is copyrighted content and there are limitations to how much of the content you can copy-paste as-is without ownership.
Also, I posted about the firmware release 7-8 hours before this post in the Official Samsung firmware thread as I don’t want to create a new thread for every release. I wanted to share the new camera features with proof of what it does and hence didn’t create a thread about it.
For those interested in night mode, you can check a sample of it here.

O you'll be shocked that Gadgets ndtv, gsm arena etc all have the exact same post, btw software update info wouldn't be claimed under copyright anyhow.
Night mode seems to be good, though a bit grainy it seems. Super steady mode which is added also seems a great feature.
Got any clues about qr code scanner in the notification panel, as mentioned in the post, I'm not seeing one! ?
Added landscape night shot for a good measure

Haven't checked it yet, but with this release the QR scanner has been integrated in the camera app, so like iOS you just need to point the camera at a QR code for it to open a page. Earlier, it could only be done through Bixby Vision.

I knew the bixby thing, So it's confirmed that Qr code is integrated in the Camera app itself unlike what the leak suggested it to be in the notification panel.
So just wifi calling is added in the NP, good !

This media info shows 873 fps. But you guys are saying its 480fps. I did not get it.

I always get a video of 8s 333ms with a bitrate of 11.5 Mb/s and a size of 11.5 MB. The minimum and maximum framerate is 30 as displayed in MediaInfo in my case. However, since Samsung advertises the Super Slow-mo as 960 fps for 0.4s on S10 and 0.2s on the S9, 480 fps for 0.4s on the A50 sounds more in line with what Samsung wants to achieve.
Update: Okay, it seems your values are from the edited portion of the super slow-mo video. I got a minimum rate of 14 and a maximum rate of 616 which constantly changes depending on the part of video edited and the lighting conditions. The average framerate for the super slow-mo section is 480 fps which is what is advertised by Samsung.

anyone could check if the standby drain still there after the update or not

It's not there and even ADB trick to enable standard navbar doesn't work. To be honest, the pill gestures are fine and navbar looks nicer with less clutter. No big loss.

After the October-Update i can´t use the video-function with the stock-cam. taking pictures is possible ...
and calling someone isn´t possible too. the phone stuck and nothing works -> "system-ui reagiert nicht"... only hardreset is solving this problem -.-
I don't get any notification since the update - anyone got the same problem?
This patch reduced my battery time too much. Before applying this patch my phone lasted 11 hours of screen. Now it only lasts 7 hours.

Wallpaper Changes on Wakeup and Scroll Capture

I just got my a50 and noticed that it would change wallpapers every time the phone woke, is there a way to do this with a custom album?
Second question, is there a way to "scroll captures" so on a webpage you can extend screen shots. I know this has been a function on a few Samsung phones I've had but can't see how to do it on this phone.
Thanks for any help
In January update there should be Smart capture available, search settings for it and enable.

Have a look in Settings, Advanced Features to see if Smart Capture is there.
If not then as madd0g says it hasn't been enabled in your region.

It works perfectly on my S21FE global snapdragon version (G990B) after installing the April update. Attached a video for your clear understanding.
Which model and software update version do you have? Maybe it is not released in your model/ region yet?

There is nothing mentioned about the image clipper feature on the update page. Update link:
Notify Update
To my understanding, it might also be related to the gallery version or the photo editor version... My phone has Gallery app version 14.1.03.1 and Photo Editor version 3.2.23.43. Do you have the same?

The May update brought the image clipper.
