Thank toy, I just picked up my 7 pro and have installed it with the auto transfer from my 4a. I wanted to know more about the camera and video settings so asked Google and it came up with you. Thank you ! I am really impressed with the phones speed already but being an avid photographer and video maker I needed advice. I am an armature of course. Cheers !

Can we get more of these videos for other phones too? It would help more people get better and learn about their devices. Could be a win for some views too.

The camera shortcut on the lock screen has disappeared. How do I enable it again? Thank you.

I am not having macro settings. Can you guide how to get the one ??

I wish they would add the ring around the front camera hole punch as a timer countdown like on Samsung devices as well as haptic feedback when snapping photos.

Nice camera phone, I miss the voice commands from my galaxy notes to take photos by just saying 'capture'

What happened to the ability to take rapid shots? Seems like the feature was deleted.

Is the P7P camera bar as easy to scratch as some are reporting? I really need to upgrade from this P6(TERRIBLE connection issues) and Google is the only company that is offering a decent trade in. I would love the P7P but I'm worried the scratches will ruin future trade in value.

The exposure and shadow slider would be fine. But after you've taken a photo the phone seems to override these settings and over exposes the image with its processing, which makes the sliders pretty redundant 😕

Great video, Zach. A video on a comparison between the Pixel 7 pro and the OnePlus 11 would be immaculate 😉

Am I the only one that has a pixel 7 pro and the camera is bad compared to videos on YouTube??

[proudtobeblue]

Camera in low light is poor and lots of blur

I regrets trading my OnePlus 10 Pro for this crap, always get hot when you open the camera and the camera is so bad compared to what we see online

The resolutiuon on the Pixel 7 Pro is shockingly poor. Editing the DNG there is no zoom to speak of. It isn't close to a 4K image. I don't understand why this phone costs this much. Its really kind of junkie. The camera is average and condierably worse than my Sony Pro I from 2020. All shots really look like they were taken with a phone, and one from maybe 2015. I don't understand the cost and appeal of these devices. I hope someone can explain to me why i'm wrong. There must be something I don't know about it. But its reaelly an average device so far. Certainly not worth $1400.00 Cdn.

It doesn't have a headphone jack or allow for a micro SD, so that makes it even cheaper to manufacture. And mostly, like the Pixel 6 Pro, the camera is brutally disapointing. They look digital and are very poor resolution.
