Google Pixel 3 Camera Tips:
hey welcome to another talking tech with a techie guy my name is Liron Segev where
I make technology simple and today we're deep diving into the Google pixel 3
camera yes I've had this phone for about 1 month now I did in my previous video
will be linked up here in the cards if you haven't seen that definitely go
check that out some tips and tricks about the Google pixel 3 but today I
want to really address the camera ok everybody smile ok let's get into it
So of course the Google pixel 3 doesn't have two cameras on the back as it's
popular with some other models but it does have this really cool digital zoom
press the magnifying glass and it brings up this little slider slab anywhere and
stop anywhere along this point and you can snap a picture now typically with a
digital zoom you do have some quality loss but I find that the Google pixel
does make up for it and even when you zoom all the way in it does actually
sharpen that picture so it does a pretty good job using that and in fact I
actually end up using that feature much more than I thought
ok top left you've got your timer and this is what allows you to give you a
little countdown time delay press the 3 seconds press the snap pattern 3 2 1 and
the photo is taken ok cool to have in case you want that facility but let's go
to the next one which is the motion it's got motion off motion auto and motion on
now you'll use this feature extensively this is amazing leave it on motion on
and essentially what it does it allows you to pick something called top shot so
let's just say I've got this little dude he needs trying to take a group photo
he's not facing forward and he's moving around a lot when I take a picture what
it will do is it will snap a picture a little bit before and a little bit after
the effect allowing me to choose the optimal images so go to the three little
dots I say select my shot and there it is a
little timeline and it's even got three little dots above where it thinks is the
base shot so think of things like taking pictures with your kids and as open as
close situations somebody's not facing forward you can now have good
opportunity to play with top shot is amazing in order to get a good image you
need to have good last by default these an option that will automatically try
work out the lock composition but you can actually manually go and change that
so if you're in florescent room you can change that if you're outside in
the Sun you can change that most people will simply leave it to auto and that's
also cool and then of course you've got the flash option auto off etc keeping on
the theme of light where we selected in the photo of course you can play it with
the exposure as well and choose the focus points wherever you touch so
that's normal as for 99% of cameras that are out there on the left side you've
got something called portrait mode and in fact actually that's pretty useful
too so if you're taking a picture of someone is lots of activity in the
background land the map go into portrait mode snap on the focus mode step on
their face and it will actually make sure that they're in focus regardless of
what's happening in the background panorama works like normal panorama
let's go into the more setting options right lots of options to play with here
on the Google pixel 3 let's start with slo-mo it's quite a nice feature to have
and a lot of people have been loving this these two speeds to choose from you
can simply select it on the bottom left as I'm doing now now let's actually
cause my frigate spinner to actually do this so press record and let's spin that
spinner so that is what it looks like through the eyes of the camera and you
can see a little bit behind the camera how it's looking okay let's stop the
video and now on playback on the side and you can see it's got two little kind
of markers this is where the slow motion will actually start so this is what it
looks like on the phone and this is what it looks like when you save the file and
you can use it on social media for example ok let's move on and I'm going
to basically tell you the speed now - even slower speed and let's repeat the
same exercise plays me spitting the fidgets spinner on normal speed let's
see what that looks like
I always get a kick out of that Lulu do sound I think it's pretty cool
okay let's hit that knots at which has got lots and lots of attention online
I'm sure you've seen lots and lots of videos so let me switch off some lights
in the studio here so you can see it's absolutely pitch black and I'm gonna
snap a picture using knots at mode I'm gonna show you what that looks like so
the first thing you've got to hold really still as it snaps a whole bunch
of photos different exposures and overlays them together to get you the
best image and there is what it looks like now just to show you the different
I'm gonna snap a photo with the Samsung S nine plus you see on camera it looks
pretty cool looks pretty decent and remember the room is pitch black you
can't even see the picture or what I'm taking a picture of let's snap a picture
of that and now let me show you to you side-by-side comparison so on the left
side you got the pixel three on the right the s9 plus and you can see the
difference quite clearly in the images the pixel three is sharper
looks nicer and it actually is a difference between being able to capture
the shots and use it versus not be able to take the shot at all right next up
let's look at something called lens which is a little bit misunderstood so
essentially what lens does is it if you take a picture of anything you can
enable the lens and if you touch on the object it will try to recognize what the
object is as it's done right here where lens really shines is when it comes to
products so here's a product it simply scans at the bar code
let's do it quickly - yeah we got puts a little dot and they tap that dot and
there it is that's the product that's the item so when you use it on products
when you use it on things like landmarks and famous pictures it will
automatically give you information that you need about it
from the serious stuff to the playground we go so in your settings click on
playground and here you can bring in some augmented reality characters
straight into the scene that you happen to be doing AB kids absolutely love us
and they have a lot of fun playing with these characters let's move our man out
the way the one I want to show you is this thing called the text so play with
that go into takes type something so for example don't forget to
drive to this channel as an example I mean this would be something somebody
else would top right now let me show you what that looks like now it actually
doesn't just keep it on the screen but it actually marries it after the
object brings a bigger smaller and understands scale now this is pretty
cool as well and you can have a lot of fun with it and it actually got from
practical usages for this as well black for example telling you not to forget to
subscribe to this channel if you're new here or give the video a thumbs up if
you thought it was pretty cool check out some of these other cool
videos and I'll see you on the next episode because that's take sample
cheers for now!
