Love seeing how you communicate with the models during shoots! It’s insightful to go through the process with you!
@@LeeZavitz This is the first time I have seen a reviewer use the exposure sliders on a Pixel phone. Your content puts these YT Celebrities like MKBHD, SuperSaf and mrwhosetheboss to shame. 🔥🔥
Man we have become hostile humans. The dude simply took some pictures of a subject and let us see what a cool new Pixel phone could offer and he gets just crushed. Thanks for you and your subjects time Lee, some of us appreciate the great job. And the Pixel 7 line is insanely solid btw. Loving mine.
Appreciate it. People don’t know how much work is involved and it’s all at my time and expense. Most people turn hostile when they don’t hear what they want to hear. It’s mostly people that some how attach their identity to the phone they are using. If you love the pixel 7 pro that’s cool. It’s a great phone but it has flaws like every device. I’m just real with what I show. Im not in googles pocket $. If you want to hear how it’s the best phone ever go to a channel that is :p
@@LeeZavitz Appreciate your work but pls don't "my time and expense" like it's all charity and not for views garnered by 200K+ subscribers.
@@freud1025 it is all at my time and expense. Some videos cost me at least $600-$1000 to shoot and I can only hope that over time it will break even from ad revenue. I dont do a ton of sponsorship deals and when I do I pretty much put all that money into the video.
Awesome video! Also enjoy seeing others shoot raw and snow off those results!
Watching all your contributions to smart phone camera demonstration are super therapeutic.
Was waiting for your review on it since its launch and finally....
Thank u mate❤
I will say, the RAW shots are definitely one of fave off a phone. Pretty crazy how nice and natural they look!!! You would never think they came off a phone.
Always love to watch your phone’s cameras in action
PS. : like your Pixel’s color that match the autumn scene 🤩
Straight to the point, organized. Man, you got a new sub today. Thanks.
You're amazing photographer that is why I look to your insta account and it blows me out from what I see. You definitely a PRO. Keep it up. Please upload more!
This is exactly who should be doing all phone camera reviews someone who knows what they are doing and talking about with the truth. So many camera reviews with other companies that’s simply use the name as the best. Best review I’ve ever seen you have a new subscriber
You are creative and I watched the Pixel 6 before and I was waiting for the Pixel 7 Pro keep working 🔥🔥
Google really need to hire people like you who actually are very honest and clear about what makes good photos and video's and where the flaws lie.
Love the vids
Definitely iPhone vs Pixel by a real photographer would be great, and thank you for pointing out the bugs with portrait mode, I think it has to do with the fact that they force a crop into the main lens instead of using the 5X which is ideal for portraits, so when the algorithm processes detail on a cropped image it just goes too far. For what is worth, I actually prefer to add portrait blur AFTER I take the picture in Google Photos, it works great, allows you to control the point of interest and intensity, which can help hiding imperfections, also can be applied to almost any picture.
In terms of the hdr processing bug, I never had an issue with that and I find it pretty damn accurate and predictable, sometimes even too accurate because if the ambience light is colorful (neon signs, rgb, etc), it corrects the color to a point where it looks like it was taken on regular/perfect conditions which is not bad, but can be annoying if you are actually trying to get moody/creative results, raw solves this too tho...
Can i take photos with the 2x no portrait mode and just adding blur to it with the software ? Will it look good without oversharping or crunching the face ?
Loved this video
I’ve had the pixel for about a week now these pictures are amazing
Your videos always make me realise how important Lighting and Location Is.
Dude love your content 🫶.... And yes do 14 pro vs 7 pro love to see that ✨
great video! I'm searching for the definitive camera phone, and I can't pick one between iPhone 14 pro, samsung s22 ultra and pixel 7 pro.. I'm not so much interested in the portrait mode, but I need a really good pro mode where I can manage all the settings, and I think the pixel is too much "auto" mode (does it have a por mode?) and maybe the s22 is the right one.. can you help me? (sorry for my English)
Thanks Lee for your awesome work and tips for using the pixel 7 pro.... Which app did you use for the edited raw....?
Thanks
Great video bro!
Do you guys know if DJI's apps work in pixel 7 pro? I need the apps for my drone and gimbal and I know because chinese manufacturers are pissed with Google they won't provide updated apps on pixel phones because they're Google products. Could you please try or install and run DJI Fly or Ronin? Cheers!
Do you have like a link to the gallery of pictures taken to see them is full res?
So which did you like shooting with the pixel 7 pro or iPhone 14 pro/max
Does the Google pixel 7pro black and white edit option like I phone?
I wonder whether the dark skin tone was due to Google's "Real Tone" feature? By the way, a few hours ago I took a portrait photo with the 7 Pro and it nearly looked as if it inverted (!) the colors of the face. Looked terrible, but was not reproducible and the issue wasn't in the raw file.
Thanks for this video!
I bought a P7PRO last week, I love to take pictures and it does an admirable job!!
Sure, its got its flaws but nothing more than my S22 Ultra or whatever phone.
Until now I never owned a phone that took better photo's.
I' ll upgrade next year, probably to the P8Pro
Keep up the good work!
This is a great impression! usually the camera aspects of smartphones are focused for persons that will use it in auto and not as photographic tools, which is fair of course as most people will use it that way; but is a pity as it negates the technological improvements in smartphones.
I need to know how the 10x perform because its a sensor crop from 5x tele lens to achive 10x 12mp image hope u add in the next video👍
Great video. Would love to see what your skills can do with a premium phone like the Samsung Z Fold 4, which is not the highest rated lens system, but is a flagship more for its foldable tablet like screen. Would be interesting to see what the results would be like.
With the pixel 6 I never saw the wired underexposure issue you saw, but I'm often frustrated with how "crunchy" and over processed images are.
Great Video!!! Definitely it shows the capabilities of the Pixel Pro than the stereotype way= Point & Shoot! Of course Software updates on the way!!
I'm hitting the 👍 button before I stream. You're Good man.😍
I don't know what happened to Google's processing but portrait mode hasn't been great since they switched to the new sensors on the 6 series. It's really a little hit and a lot of miss since then. Processing looks terrible but when it does hit it's amazing. I hope they can solve this with future updates. Portrait mode works best on my 6 Pro when I turn on the flash and then it destroys everything else. But when flash is turned off it's a gamble.
Thanks to the huge sensor, I would just make portrait using 2x zoom with normal lens and let the natural bookeh of this (quite) huge sensor go out.
@@uriel3368 exactly. I take all my selfies with the main rear camera and at arms length all my photos come out gorgeous with natural bokeh that far surpass any fake portrait mode.
You have to realise that the 6 have had over a year's worth of updates.... You need to give it time for the software to be updated. I think people seem to forget this.
Hmm same I remember taking pictures with my 5a and one of my friend's 6 pro and my 5a turned out to be the better in portraits mostly and overall as well! I was kinda in a strange position, but since it's new hope google will figure it out soon
Hiya!
I'm new here, what would be the best party camera app for Google pixel 7pro?
Hey, how does Pixel RAW compare to Iphone Pro RAW vs Galaxy Expert RAW?
Wow amazing 😍
with this very cool model, anyone can use a blackberry and still produce awesome photos, her poses are amazing!
Yeah she’s awesome, my only problem is she is use to a normal camera and switching poses quick where the phone can’t really keep up haha.
iPhone 13 Pro user here. I like that your video showed that the camera app has a white balance slider. I also learned that it could do raw+jpg in the app which is good to know, as sometimes I'd rather process the raw with less extreme HDR. Nice video, cheers
Yeah it’s awesome it can do raw + jpg like a real camera. I think pixels are the only phones that do that
I have the 13 Pro also, and there is an app called Camera M that I use a lot of times in place of the standard camera app. It offers full manual control and allows you to shoot raw+jpg. It takes a while to learn the interface, but I highly recommend it.
@@LeeZavitz LG phones (G and V series): RAW+JPG feature available since 2016 if not earlier
Hey, I’m confused to make a right decision.Can you tell which one is better I’m talk about 13 pro , 14 , Pixel 7 pro . I’m waiting for your reply
What's up buddy i recently subscribed your channel great videos
Also if you can,make tip video for phone portrait photography because as you know in phones we dont have depth of field and stuff so little things like model dress and some composition tips can really effect so much on phones portraits
🙏 Thanks
I find that the pixel 7 pro uses too much sharpening and contrast boost most of the time. In certain situations I turn to the ProShot app to turn down the noise reduction and overly "popped" look. I sure wish there were a manual mode in the Google camera app.
Hey Lee. I saw your video about the Pixel 6 Pro camera and I have just compared it with this one. One thing I really can't explain to myself is that the quality of the portrait of the Pixel 6 Pro is way better than the Pixel 7 Pro. Just watch again that video, the portraits were absolutely perfect. I have the Pixel 7 Pro and i'm really disappointed for the portraits.
Greetings from Italy
It's easy...stop using portrait modes. Use 1x , 2x and 5x lenses to shoot portrait pictures in normal mode. You're going to get smoother and much more natural bokeh and even more detail. Portrait modes are ok just for smaller sensors.
I Wonder If they will update the firmware on portrait mode and that darkening of the photos. I would like not to shoot In Raw all the time.
can you do video comparison as well when doing 7 pro vs 13 pro
Great video, please do a "video & photo" comparison, Google pixel 7 pro VS iphone 14 pro max VS samsung 22 ultra please
Wow!!! What a perfect camera.❤️🇧🇷
Love your videos. Not super hot on your overly warm and red editing but the photography is bang on. Disappointed with the pixel JPEG photos but I guess RAW is always the way to go for shooting people.
Have you ever thought on trying the Vivo x80 pro?
It sucks portrait mode is being left to the wayside. Apple updated theirs in the iPhone 14 Pro to do shallow depth near and far this year but their main lenses without portrait mode are still doing better. All cameras kinda gave up on it.
I have a Pixel 7 Pro and what I don't understand is the aggressive luminance noise reduction for daylight photos (especially noticeable with leaves/trees in landscape photos). Already the 6 Pro had this issue, previous Google phones like the Nexus 5x didn't have this issue in HDR+ On mode. The raw files don't have this issue and the raw files are often even not noisy. So it's unexplainable for me why they destroy details in good light conditions. Even the live photo video frames can sometimes look better due to the noise reduction.
Does your Pixel7 heats up or having battery issues?
Great video, Lee! I am a hobby photographer. Would the Pixel 7 Pro or the iPhone 14 Pro replace a Sony ZV-1 compact camera? I have a OnePlus Nord 2T now and I realize I hardly ever take the Sony out of my bag. Especially, video just always becomes jerky no matter the stabilization.
I had a 1plus before, I think it was a 5t. Great phone, but not a pixel level camera. I think if you are favoring the Nord now, you would be very pleased with the 7 pro. Not familiar with the newer iPhones. I am a pixel guy for the camera and slick android os. I was a canon guy....samething happened when I got a Nexus 6p - this was Google's last phone before the pixel came out. Then I got the pixel 2xl and the oy time I got one of the canons is when I am outdoors and want the zoom. Now with the zoom lense on the 7 pro, that is less frequent. Honestly, if you like the Nord as a phone - the system - you'd be very happy with the Pixel.
They should have a revert processing pic option or something to solve excessive editing issue the phone does
First time seeing on of your videos. You're doing a great job. You know what you're doing. Just one question. Do you think a noob who has no idea about photography can still get decent portraits shots when not using the portrait mode? And do you have any tipps on how to get good shots? Just using 2x and 5x zoom lense and that's? Or is there more to know?
photography 101 still applies. The camera is the tool, the photographer is the artist :) Always make your tool work for you not the other way around.
hiii may i know where this place located ? it's so beautiful
She is amazing
Wow amazing camera
Main cam, at 1x does HDR superbly, but 2X seems to be an issue
Very beautiful 🎉
Shes a great model. I see a lot of confidence
1. anyway you can include at the end or in between of you editing the raw pics step by step and then hold it up side by side with the jpg/regular raw to see how you got the results.
2. second question, which lens was the best one because the regular 1x is the 50 mega pixel one, so wouldnt it make sense to just always shoot with that one instead of doing any zoom ins or switching cameras.
3. question, can we see videos of you beating the iphone 14 pro with the most compact/mini cameras and how you did it
where is this located?
nice one.... waited for this one...(pixel fan)
Does it let you shoot a full 50mp raw on the main camera or are they all automatically binned down to 12ish mp?
No, sadly, you can't take 50 megapixel photos. The 12 megapixel main camera photos are not downsampled 50 megapixel photos. The 12 megapixel photos are created by the sensors in their 12 megapixel modes, the sensors behave like 12 megapixel Bayer sensors in this mode. The 50 megapixel modes of the sensors are only used for digital zoom. (The 6 Pro never used the 50 megapixel modes of the sensor, the 6 Pro gave you 3 megapixels at 2x zoom).
can you do the xperia pro I ?
these pictures are so cool
Could you do a Pixel vs Iphone comparison? the only thing that really matters to me is the camera on phones, but I haven't found a good comparison yet, it doesn't even have the be the 14, the 13 pro or pro max could do too.
Working on it. End of the day they are both good. They both have strengths and weaknesses. If you want it for video the iPhone is much better
S22 Ultra just got updated, should do a 3 way shoot out, make sure to use camera assistant which gets rid of shutter lag and let's you keep the same lens shot
Pixel 7 Pro can sometimes have some very strong contrast which can be unpleasing for human pictures, so I use RAW and edit them, sensor is amazing!!
I like all photos of your shot 😘. from Cambodia🇰🇭
Thanks 👍 bra 4 review
⭐ I have the Pixel 6 - the one thing I wish Google would fix is focus lock, its so easy to do and would make video such much easier
@@therealzuluking The issue of the Pixel 7 Pro is that focus lock isn't working correctly in the photo mode. It often resets and still shows the yellow lock symbol. I just examined the issue a few days ago on the Pixel 7 Pro because I wanted to take macro photos (ultra wide angle as well as main camera +2x zoom). At first I thought that it isn't working when you adjust the zoom level (for example from 2x to 3x), but it can even reset when you don't change the zoom factor (no matter whether "macro focus" is turned on or not). Google's focus lock is full of bugs.
@@therealzuluking are you sure my friend has a 7 and its not on his (video)
Why would it be on the 7 and not the 6, the 6 was supposed to challenge iPhone video, its a fundamental feature for video. Google are pants.
Hmmmm I don't have these issues on my pixel 7 Pro. The processing is not aggressiv, compared to the pixel 6 Pro
Even with the consistencies the photo still look great! Did you edit them in Lightroom mobile?
Used my presets and tweaked the orange to pull more red from the leaves. Used Lightroom
just one real question, is it, really any better than the 6 pro, if so ill go for one as I don't do apple, if not then maybe a six
Only a few things are better. Cameras aren crazy Better. It’s more stuff like better battery; faster thumbprint reader. Face unlock. Stuff like that
Hey, please upload pixel 7 pro camera samples.
Will wait on that iphone 14 Pro vs Pixel 7 Pro shootout!
Dont know what they did with the portrait mode, what a mess. Looks like its doing a crop on the main sensor with extra sharpening, yikes. Hoping its saveable by a future update
Finally! Someone that actually takes 🔥🔥🔥 photos and really show off the P7P camera. Excellent photos
Autumn pics are going to look better because it has less contrasty scenes. I think that even mediocre cameras would do well in these settings. I'm not dissing P7P in any way.Probably the best smartphone photo camera overall.
not really. see other Lee's videos. this phone is bad. I didn't like a single photo is this video.
@@elvenpath7 agreed, if you discount the scene his iphone pictures look better in the other videos
You should look into reviewing Vivo phones! They have great cameras and portrait mode, the new Vivo X90 Pro Plus is coming out very soon, should definitely look into it. Great vid nevertheless.
the video I was waiting for but I already bought and dropped my pixel 7 pro while waiting for the preorder case to arrive
It would be great to see an interior shoot. The only time reviewers seem to go inside is to test night mode! But Most people actually use their camera indoors regularly in just normal interior light.
I could make a video like that but it’s just harder to plan out a shoot indoors unless i find a cool location or studio. These videos I make aren’t your every day photos. I’m a photographer and to me it’s more about creative shoots using a phone instead of my real camera.
Nice
Would you say the 7 Pro is better camera than 14 Pro Max? ❤
Pixel 7 Pro 😍
What's location??
I owned one today Yay 😮
where is loacation sooo much beautiful for pictures and all the stuff
yeah, the portrait mode on pixels doesnt look good, usually wht i do is tht i capture a normal photo and then apply portrait mode in photo editing.
also my pixel 6a sometimes does make the subject dark but only in portrait mode.
so yeah, pretty consistent bugs across pretty much all new pixels
I’m happy to finally hear somebody that talks of the 2 biggest pixel 6 and 7 issues (pro and not).
The portrait mode really really su**s! Low res feeling and totally not accurate colors and skin tones… and this was one of the selling points!
And also, lights totally flattened by the ai hdr
The solution on the fly is to crank down (almost fully) the shadows handler
One more solution may be using the open camera app or shoot with the Lightroom app
Also, silly thing by google, not having portai mode with the zoom lens
Solution in general is to shoot everything without portrait mode and post process using the photo app (you can add depth of field there) as the app makes a better job
Can you please repeat until which pixel version portrait mode was great?
Maybe we can install that apk version to check if works?
Amazing !!!👍🏾
Pixel7pro vs iPhone 14max pro nexr time😊
that natural bokeh at 2x is just sweeeeeeeet.
I’m glad the 2x is not a digital zoom. It’s my favourite focal length for portraits
U should make camera comparison videos too
Ayyy. It’s here! Yeah, that portrait mode has really become a real mess. I just use the 5x. It’s gorgeous, haha
How good is the telephoto lense for portaits?
@@LeeZavitz yes.. but some people are saying pixel 6 pro takes better portaits using telephoto lense.. any idea?
