The Google Pixel smartphone has a great camera with features that are not found in any other smartphones. One of the most impressive parts of the Pixel’s camera is the HDR (high dynamic range) mode which takes multiple shots at different exposures and then combines them into a single image with better contrast, colors, and dynamic range than you get with a normal picture. To set HDR+ to auto, open up the camera app and tap HDR+ Auto. By turning the gridlines on, you can compose shots by placing your subject at a strategic location in the photo such as using the rule of thirds. The grid will act as a guide, helping you align the horizon with the top or bottom third, instead of leaving it in the middle, to create interesting shots that aren’t always just centered. To turn it on, tap on the grid button and choose the grid size. You can choose between 3x3, 4x4, and golden ratio. There are some quick shortcuts to opening up the camera app. If you press and hold the camera’s app icon and it will bring up shortcuts to take a selfie or record video. Or you can double-press the power button and the camera app will open. When you want to switch between the rear and front camera, double twist the phone toward or away from you. Twist again to go back to the previous camera. You can turn this feature off if it’s not your thing. Go to phone settings, then moves, then flip command and turn it off. When you first get your phone, the volume button will act as a shutter release. You can change this to shutter, zoom or other camera-related tasks by going to the camera setting and selecting volume key action. There are also a few shooting modes. Google’s camera app might not have all the filters and effects you want, like on Instagram or Snapchat, but they do have some cool features. It has slow motion, panorama, photo sphere, and lens blur. Lens blur is probably the most unique out of all of the modes. Tap the shutter icon and take a picture of the object you want to use the blur mode. You can adjust the blurriness after you take the photo. Customize picture and video quality by opening Camera settings and switching to your preferred resolution. You should put the front and back camera at the highest settings: front is at 8 megapixel and back is at 12.3 megapixel. The video camera is defaulted to record in 1080p. With free, unlimited storage at full quality, there is no reason to have 4K turned off! To turn on 4K, go to camera settings, then select back camera video resolution. If you are simply panning around while you are recording your video, the stabilization feature on it is quite impressive. If you plan on moving the phone and walking around, you may want to turn off the image stabilization since it tends to skip around a lot. To disable the feature, go to camera settings, then video stabilization and turn it off. Do you have any camera tricks using your Google Pixel phone?
