- Here guys, Jonathan here.
Just dropped a video
on some of the best iPhone Ten accessories
and today got something for the Pixel Two and Pixel Two XL.
It is no secret that it has probably
the best smartphone camera in the game right now.
If you disagree, let me know what your pick is
with the comment down below.
But today if you're a Pixel fan,
get excited because I got a couple of gadgets
that should elevate things and take full advantage
of the amazing camera inside the Pixel Two.
So this is a two piece case, slash, lens combo from Moment
and how it works is you pop on the case
and that then adds a layer of modularity
in the sense that you can swap out different lenses,
there's a wide angle, a telephoto, a fisheye,
and even a macro for those super-close tight shots.
So the first thing that immediately jumped out to me
with these is build quality, presentation,
are all extremely well done and they are built like a tank.
They are freaking heavy.
I'll let you in on a little secret
before every Ossen Evans video, he curls these 856 times
and that is a secret to those Atkins gains.
Speaking of presentation,
anything that comes in a case or a bag
always makes you feel just a little extra special inside.
Here we have the wide angle lens and I'll pop it out.
They also include a lens cover so you're not gonna scratch
that glass, which is really nice.
Very well thought out.
Here's the telephoto 60 millimeter lens
and again same deal there, lens cap
and there's just a really well though out system.
Now as far as installation goes,
we have a marker here on the case,
we have a marker here on the lens,
so they make it extremely simple to not screw this up.
Pop it in, slide, we have the Moment logo there.
You can clearly see once you take the lens cap off
the 18 millimeter sight in there.
And now it is time to test this guy out.
So to give an example of how much this alters
your field of view,
I'm gonna snap a photo here,
but I'm also gonna pop up the lens
and show you how much that alters the image.
So we had that beautiful wide image,
now we are much more cropped in.
I'm gonna snap a photo.
And take a look back at these pictures.
The standard stock lens in the Pixel Two,
that's a great picture.
But as we swipe over to that wide angle shot
you can see so much more in there.
You see the sky, we got that street going across,
into the sun peeking outta the corner.
It's doing a great job with the highlights.
You're not really losing any quality.
You were just getting an amazing looking wide shot.
It's pretty incredible.
Seeing that makes me want to pop this immediately back on
because we got some beautiful sun
creeping through that tree.
I'm gonna see if I can catch that right now.
We got them palm trees
and if I were to take this off,
there's no way we are getting that much.
Yeah, that's like crowding your image.
There's no way we are getting that much detail.
I would have to scoot way the hell back there.
Man, can I just give the Pixel 2
some major credit right here?
The sky is completely visible
but we are still getting that beautiful ray of sunshine
blasting through those leaves, beautiful.
Now on top of photos,
these lenses will also work through video.
So what you're watching right now
is me being shot through the Pixel 2
with that wide-angle lens.
It's gotta make this little bit of scenery
look extra cinematic but if we were to take that lens off
you guys could see how much of that wide angle
we are losing.
I have no idea what this looks like right now.
I'm sure it is nowhere near as cool as before.
Well let me know in the comment down below
what you think of the quality with the lens and without.
Lastly, there is one shot I want to get.
Part of me really wishes this light bulb was on
because that would be a freaking cool shot,
but I'm still gonna try to get it anyway.
I don't think I would normally be able to get anything close
like this without the wide-angle lens
so if I could just get a little bit of exposure,
bring that down.
Snap it and that is a really impressive image.
Now if I were to swipe this off,
yeah that is cool but it's nowhere near
that wide angle shot.
It just adds a whole layer to that photo.
Now quick update, initially I wasn't the biggest fan
of needing a case to use a lens
but the more and more I use it,
the more it find myself liking it.
One, it's not something you gotta think about.
You just swap it on and you're good.
And two, if you've ever used those lens attachments
that don't require a case,
sometimes they don't always align properly
but with this you get it perfect every time.
So we've seen what that wide angle lens can do.
Now it's time to check out that telephoto lens.
We're gonna add some length to this Pixel 2.
Pop it on, pop the lens cap off.
I think we're gonna test it out
with this nice little arrangement of flowers right here.
What I'm seeing immediately right now
is some really nice blur in the background.
It's got a super-nice roll-off.
This is not in portrait mode.
I'm gonna snap a photo but you can see that is really nice.
For reference I'm going to pop this off
and we should effectively lose all that right now.
So yeah, you can see the image is nowhere near
as compressed with this.
We still see a little bit of that in the background
but comparing it to this shot
with a telephoto lens on,
you can see we got that nice circular fall off ball action.
Boca, boce, whatever you want to call it,
it is pretty as hell.
Now to kinda take that one step further,
what I'm gonna do is pop the lens back on
and also check out this with portrait mode enabled
and see what that does.
So right off the bat,
that's going to crop us in just a little bit further.
We have some nice foreground going on,
we still have that ball in the background.
I'm gonna take the shots, let it process
and right there that is pretty impressive.
So we see a little bit more blur in that light
in the background.
But either way, with or without portrait mode,
having this telephoto lens is a really nice addition.
From there, Rich, let's flex those breads.
We got Rich in frame, photo taken.
One without the lens just for safety.
Now we see all your legs in that shot.
Take it a look back, so that is without the telephoto lens.
It's pretty nice.
- [Rich] Yeah.
Oh that's really nice.
- [Jonathan] Look at that! - Oh, got a little flair too?
- Yeah, I love what it does with the background,
the blur, the sun, it holds all those highlights.
This is pretty damn cool.
Ugg, I though I was gonna go to move that.
I wanted to bring the flowers so I could catch the sun.
It's not gonna happen.
Oh we got a train coming!
Quick, Rich. - Yeah?
- Hit me with the stand.
Hook me up.
This is also a really good test of how quickly
you can get set up.
(upbeat music)
Look man, I'm like one of those Instagram kids.
And this guy I'm following, what's his name?
It's Steve.
Steve is moving it.
He said get that (beeps) outta my way!
- [Rich] Demonetized.
- Holy crap, man,
using this telephoto lens on video right now,
like that is freaking crazy.
It's like portrait mode all the time but in video.
I'm not sure how that effects stabilizations,
so let me know what you guys think.
But just what I'm seeing right here through the viewfinder
is kind of crazy.
Like the light behind it, that is some insane footage.
So with this that is gonna add a complete different layer
to your arsenal with the Pixel 2 in terms of video.
Now I'm not gonna lie,
initially when I saw these, I was a little skeptical
especially because of the price point.
They aren't the most insane things in the world
but they're also not the cheapest.
I guess in the grand scheme of things
when you compare it to other camera gear out there,
it kinda makes sense.
The build quality, the fact that it's well presented,
you have a case, you have a lens cap.
It all kinda makes up for that price.
But more importantly the image quality.
That wide angle lens was awesome,
but after seeing what this did,
especially for video, it has definitely won me over.
With that said, that has me super-excited for these to come
to the iPhone Ten.
I believe they're currently available for the Eight
and Eight Plus right now,
but as we know I think the Pixel 2 and the iPhone Ten
are currently the two best in the game.
Aside from that, thank you guys very much for watching.
Hopefully you enjoyed the video.
