  • The Google Pixel 8 Pro probably has the best cameras of any Android smartphone out right now. The RAW files paired with the 50mp mode from all 3 cameras produce photos that look like they were shot from a real camera. However, it's not perfect and there are still some critical drawbacks that prevent it from being perfect. Watch the full video for some street and travel POV footage, as well as some pixel peeping in lightroom!

I am seriously thinking about switching to this Pixel because I really like mobile photography (I am currently with iPhone 14 pro) when it first came out the Proraw files were fine but after updating to IOS 17 the files have a lot of noise reduction especially in the shadows and that leaves the file quite washed out and it bothers me a lot

    Is using the 50MP really worth it? I tend to use it most of the time, but the problem is that the shutter takes WAY too long. I think the problem with 12MP is that it's too little for cropping.

Have you tried using Lightroom's Denoise AI?

    Hi Alex. I just moved from apple to this Google phone precisely because I want to focus more on smartphone photography. My apple was just an old SE. I agree with your comments about the better look of the RAW files. I like to shoot with the 2x zoom (50mm equivalent) and the processing of the jpegs becomes really obvious there - because the image is a crop from the main camera, the RAW is only 12 MP but looks luscious and full of detail. The jpeg has been expanded to 48MP so as well as the over sharpening there is some AI extrapolation going on. Thanks for the video.

    Excellent review! I love shooting RAW on my 8Pro, but I am undecided if 50mp is really the best thing to use given the file sizes and sensor size. Not sure if there is a clear advantage to using that mode, especially if I just want to post on, say IG. I am really impressed by the video though. Curious, did you turn on the HDR video shooting mode? 4K 30 HDR looks really good on this phone.

    • @azvisuals
      @azvisuals  9 місяців тому +2

      50mp def isn't for every single shot, esp with the capture/processing delays. But for those special moments where you know you want to crop or do post processing and print, it is invaluable! and yeah in daylight the video does look really good, but its still not consistent when it comes to low light. not even dark yet, just a tad lower light and things start to fall apart quickly

    edit:
    I'm done with the video now. Thank you so much for making this in depth video. I started photography this year with film and realized my s10e is a bit out dated and absolutely blows in low light. This gives me soo much perspective on the capabilities of the pixel 8 pro as I shop for a new phone with having a good camera system in mind.

    Hi mate. I'm shooting with the Pixel 8 pro for a couple of weeks now. I shoot semi professionally on Fuji and Sony Mirrorless and almost always carry one of them with me. So since I got this phone I'm getting some very good shots. So much so that for Socials the shots out of phone are more than good enough to leave my pro cameras at home. Obviously the pro cameras are better but I'm happy with the dynamic range and details, speed from standby to shooting etc. I am very impressed with the zoom lens. It's way better than I expected and I even find landscape shots with the zoom give lovely compression and plenty of detail what with the stabilisation etc. So I am very impressed indeed. I'm looking forward to having a go with some astro photography with it. I've seen some awesome looking astro shots from some you tubers. I am into wild camping and adventure photography and it means I can leave my heavier cameras at home now. And it's more water resistant than my pro cameras. I've been impressed with the high bit rate video also and the audio recording quality. It's a bit of a technical marvel really. Can't believe it performs as well as it does for a mobile phone.

      @@azvisuals I have been using the phone as my daily driver but I haven't got any chance to use the camera to be honest as I have been working a lot instead of going out. I did notice the 2x lens that digitally crops in to the main sensor being good and the camera assistant changes. The processing time or capture speed and all that has now been moved to the main camera settings which is such a good thing. I was trying to see if you could make a video as a professional and a reviewer to see what changes it went through to be honest. I am sorry im not much of a help in this, would've been if I was going outside and taking pictures haha.
      I have heard really good things about the oneui6 making good impact on camera changes though.

      @Niimerium 9 місяців тому

      I guess mainly the comparison would be with the advanced intelligence option as well and combining it with the camera assistant features such as disable hdr etc to see how different the quality of pictures and shutter speed/shutter lag are.

    Upgraded from S23 Ultra to Pixel 8 Pro. I was ao angry because after a year they didn't implement the recording at 4K60f with camera switch lens during recording. If Pixel has near the half of S23U power, why they dind't implement it? Marketing?
    Now it's available on S24U and they don't differ a lot in computing power. I abandoned Samsung because of this and other issues I had, like huge rattling noise from the periscope 10x lens, while recording, it ruined all the video I shot.
    So, in the end, I'm very happy with the Pixel, for colors rendering, skin tone, details and wide fov in 0,5x.

    Very timely and well done video as my Fuji x100f that I used on recent trips has malfunction and has been sent in for repair. While I have a pixel 6 that has provided some good snapshots, I am thinking of replacing the x100f with a Pixel 8 Pro it shoots raw and has pro controls. Especially now that the price has been reduced. But first I have to ask if you shot in raw or Jpeg?

    I am disappointed with the lens flare on the pixel 8 pro. When pics are taken at night with street lights or other lights present, pics become distorted even when the camera is not focused directly on the lights. Until that issue is resolved, it is not a top camera. Why didn't you address this issue in the video?

    • @producedbyonel
      @producedbyonel 3 місяці тому

      You can't fix this, look:
      When shooting with 12mp your phone combines 4 pixels to 1 for smaller files and better colours. But when you shoot with 50mp your phone has to process 4 times the amount of pixels, which is obviously way harder for your phone to do, so it will always be slower

    Since you used the S23U for long time, did you switch for this P8P or are you keeping both?
    And, as a father of a 7 months baby, is the P8P better than S23U with moving subjects in low light/indoor? S23U struggles a lot...I can barely catch my baby's face in focus. Using the Pro mode the ISO has to be put extremely high and the pics become super noisy.

    • @PaPaNadim.
      @PaPaNadim. 7 місяців тому

      As a father of 2 (4y & 4m) I totally approve that P8P is way better in moving subjects then the S23 & S24 Ultra (I used both & returned them) and now using the P8P especially with the unblur feature Pixels have! Give it a try..
