Google Pixel 6 Pro - A Photographers Review

[@TruuJones]

finally a camera review by a photographer. Great insight very thorough review

[@azvisuals]

Thank you! Appreciate it

[@jamesphillipshort]

As a fellow photographer, google is where it's at with most of the shots. But as we all know, no phone can fully replace a dslr camera.

Just so you know I have never given a thumbs-up or thumbs-down 2nd channel. It's not because they're not good or they're bad because I just don't do it. But I so highly appreciate you taking time to do this video I have been looking for weeks for a phone and I'm not sure which one will be good for me and I'm thinking that this one might. You definitely help me with my selection. It'll either be this one or the Galaxy 6x pro or whatever thanks so much. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤

[@notanotherutubeuser]

i like how u actually reviewed the device properly even though the majority of users wont need such in depth info like me, it would be interesting to see how this compares to prvoius pixel models

[@emrysneko]

this review might be the best phone camera review I've ever seen for any phone. i love how you included the social media camera qualities. thank you!

[@azvisuals]

Appreciate the kind words!

[@Mikein203]

Absolutely 💯 agree. It's great to see a video review by a photographer who understands and explains in good detail. Either an amateur or professional can say this was a great review. Great job. Just got a new subscriber!

[@MacBjorn]

My understanding is that although the sensor, and processor are new, the camera algorithm is not much different than earlier Pixels. The expectation is that they will be working on the software processing to "unlock" the new potential of the hardware.

[@azvisuals]

Yep I think you're right. My testing aligns with your theory so hopefully it can get much better in time

[@gefingeerdbetweenthedots6092]

front cam sucks in dark grainy

[@yousefalsammarraie4020]

i just hope they do it for this pixel, and not only for like the pixel 7 pro and on from there cause if that's the case this phone is left kinda lackluster

[@sadtwink666]

@@yousefalsammarraie4020 it'll be for this one too. my pixel 3 shoots way better now than it did at launch, and has significantly better edge detection for portaits, etc. than the pixel 6 currently does. it's one thing that really has me hooked on the pixel lineup. once the algorithms learn to better deal with the 6's new cameras, you should see a huge improvement, and it'll probably get even better later on!

[@kahlohendrix5097]

Hey man I really appreciate and love this video. I appreciate you speaking with a normal pace and I really like that you showed step by step what you were doing without rushing.

[@azvisuals]

Thanks for watching!

[@sidersproductions941]

This was a great showing of what the Pixel 6 Pro can do before Google actually tunes the software for the new hardware. And you said what I've been saying since the phone came out though. The software needs to catch up with the new camera power. Only thing I wish you did was take more portrait shots using the 4x telephoto natively without the software magic. I feel like that will give the best results for portraits since everything will be real depth and natural. Can't wait to get mine.

[@MrSwaggernaut83]

Can confirm, the tele lens is great on its own, natural bokeh is almost always there, and though it's not a ton, it's enough to look great and it's natural

[@claughlin]

Why would they release the Pixel 6 Pro before tuning the software for the new hardware?

[@sidersproductions941]

@@claughlin because they had to release the phone at some point whether they got everything perfectly tuned or not. This is very common these days. Especially with OnePlus whose camera systems always improve over time.

[@BoltRM]

@12:20 Such an AWESOME feature to be able to adjust the blurring of the background _after the pic was taken_ in Portrait mode! I think the automatic blur could be reduced maybe 30%. The person's edge is slightly too sharp for my taste. Maybe if they made the setting user adjustable beforehand & retain the setting until I reset it manually? 🤔

[@sidersproductions941]

@@BoltRM yes I agree 100%. The effect is overdone. But I'm thinking Google will eventually release some updates to improve it. The 4x telephoto actually does a better job of doing portraits than the dedicated portrait mode.

[@petermainwaringsx]

I'm a latecomer to the party having only gone from Pixel 4 to 6 Pro less than a week ago. I've watch a ton of videos but I think I've learned more from this one than any of the others. Thank you.

[@DaveChurchill]

Hey Alex, I've noticed that the P6Pro's RAW capture is absolutely fantastic, and minor editing in Lightroom produces images WAY better than the default camera app. Maybe you could do a video on shooting RAW with the Pixel 6? It really shows off the hardware of the phone's camera

[@azvisuals]

Thanks for your feedback. The raw files seemed really flat to me. And the exposure often looks different and way off compared to the jpg. Of course it's recoverable in LR but it seems to take more work. I will have to test more and maybe create an updated video about it

[@DaveChurchill]

@@azvisuals The amount of detail it retains is far higher though. Google Camera jpg quality seems highly compressed and you lose a ton of detail in hair and animal fur especially

[@dennissmeltzer4394]

@@azvisuals Raw files should look flat compared to a processed jpeg. Just like raw file from a digital camera.

[@Mikein203]

I would absolutely love to see a review from you Alex comparing the S21 vs Pixel 6. Right now I'm still using my S10+, which still in my opinion takes great photo's but I can't imagine the difference in quality once I upgrade my device.

Thank you for this video! It is refreshing to get an actual photographer sharing their insights instead of just a bunch of poorly framed photos from reviewers. 😅 I especially love the pixel peeping section and the subjective bits where you explain why you framed a shot and how/why you adjusted how you shot the photos.

[@sabergo1]

Instead of fighting the HDR for specific compositions, I use second party app. Firstlight -- easy to use, but not your typical pro app.

[@azvisuals]

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try that out

[@violetsprite]

This video made me feel so nostalgic. Your photowalk was done in an area I used to frequent more than 10 years ago for photowalks and just for the energy of the area. I just pre-ordered the Pixel 7 Pro, so maybe I'll head home just to use the camera for photowalks in this area again :-).

[@azvisuals]

That's awesome to hear! I'm planning on getting the 7 pro as well so going to make a video about it to compare :)

[@DaveStern2]

great video. luckily I got got a 256gb pro last week and did one RAW edit for the first time today, just testing (edit in snapseed). The DNG was very flat and overexposed .. was able to pull that back but was pretty impressed on what the phone did on its own to create the jpeg. RAW edits on the phone will take some practice. I agree that the falloff in the portrait is too strong as a default so may need to edit mine. BTW, the video stabilization modes are incredible, try them all if you haven't. I like that I can edit in google or my own editor with a direct link (e.g. snapseed). The 6 pro is a beast out of the box and I think the software will improve even further, hoping the google team watches your video.

[@azvisuals]

Nice! Thanks for your input. Yeah the raw files are so weird, and completely different from the processed jpgs. And I agree the video stabilization looks really good

[@fla01003]

I agree. I hope the Google team watches this review to help improve the software.

[@damienriot]

Thanks for showing that you can control the blur in portraits. I have noticed it months ago on my old 4xl..too bad almost all hot shot youtube phone reviewers missed this simple option in the camera app and kept complaining. It's comical at this point to see some of them have far less ideas about the app than me. Awesome video btw..pls do a follow up once google optimises the app further for new sensor. GL

[@azvisuals]

Nice! Yeah often times it's the small details that get missed and can actually really improve the usability of the device.

[@terriblegamer6162]

I appreciate you showing the social media integration for this phone. I genuinely haven't seen anyone else talk about it and I've been looking for videos comparing it to an iPhone. If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say it's better than most androids but not as great as iPhones.

[@azvisuals]

Thanks! Unfortunately I don't have an iPhone to test against. But yeah I think they are still better since they have had generations to optimize vs pixel being one of the first.

[@Eazidosit]

From what I seen and in store. The 6 pro and iPhone video quality and stability is neck and neck. Both doing better in different situations. The voice audio though goes to the pixel especially from the front with voice enhancement. It blocks out the loud sound around you. I seen people using it in cities with helicopters flying over and more.

[@Starphixx]

Agreed, but compared to my brothers iphone 12, snapchat actually launches the camera faster on the pixel 6 pro (from when you push the icon). Camera quality, he also get worse performance from snapchat than the regular camera, but i think that is due to size constraints :)

[@nervusbreakdown]

I could be wrong but I think the pixel also have a enhanced mic to filter out the noise and focus your voice instead.

[@Starphixx]

@@nervusbreakdown Yes it does :) Voice enhancement or something. Works really well from what ive seen

I only bought the 6 pro a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. It's a nice upgrade from my old LG V30. I used to own a Google Nexus 6P, so it's nice to have Google's camera hardware and software back in my hands, again. I was looking for a photographer's review of the camera, so thank you.

[@PaulPushkarov]

At 12:15 It looks like when you re-apply the background blur - it removes the original blur created during the shot and applies simpler more plain blur without that nice bokeh.

[@azvisuals]

Good eye! I think once you set the new blur level, it will re-process the image

[@Gmail.svenster]

Out of about 20odd you tubers your the only one that gave a honest opinion and really new what he was talking about. Last week I received a S21fe as a present,and I know its had a few various reviews.After messing around I've found it's a decent phone🎗📸🇬🇧

Thanks for this review. At last, a knowledgeable photographer who takes a practical approach to using the camera and gives straightforward information which people need in order to make an assessment. I’m not really bothered by gimmicks such as action pan or motion blur which I suspect I would use very occasionally but there was tons of practical, photographic knowledge of how the camera performs. By the way, coming from the UK, I was fascinated by the feel and look of ‘normal’ New York!

İm on koks and your video let me fly. Was so cool to watch. Have that pixel 6 pro and its an incredible feeling to use it. Something unic which feels so luxury. The display is awesome. İt makes so much fun to watch videos. Best android phone ive ever used.

[@frankschnelle9733]

If I am not mistaken, the Action Pan mode is actually expecting you to hold still instead of panning. The AI will basically auto detect the main subject in the frame, isolate it and blur the background accordingly. Maybe this is the reason why your results were inconsistent. Anyways, thanks for this helpful video!

[@azvisuals]

Thanks for the tip. I think you may be right. I was just doing the pan like how you would do it with a camera! I'll have to try holding still and seeing if it improves

[@Pratagraph]

@@azvisuals I tried both but I got better results if I panned with the device like you would with a real camera. I’m a photographer and videographer as well. And I think you’ve inspired me to make a review as well. We have similar thoughts but a few differences in our experience with this phone so I’ll try to save my opinion for the video. Great work on the video! And thank you for the inspiration.

[@azvisuals]

@@Pratagraph thanks for your feedback! Looking forward to your video!

[@ThomMurphy]

Action Pan's instructions say you can do either method. My results are usually better while panning as I would with a real camera while shooting objects, and better while holding still when shooting people.

[@michaelyang3910]

Thank you for the excellent review. I am on the same boat as you in terms of what I'm looking for - I was dead set on getting the Pixel 6 because I don't want a huge phone, but your results with the telephoto lens is really swaying me towards tolerating the huge brick that is the pro. Really wish they gave us a compact version!

[@azvisuals]

I know right?? Bring back the compact flagships! But yeah that 4x impresses me every time

[@michaelyang3910]

I have a feeling/hope that they'd launch compact versions as the 6A/6A pro. I've ordered the regular 6 because I shoot mostly landscape where I live in New Zealand and I know the size will grind my gear going from a Pixel 3. Also the sorta seafoam colour just got me some sorta way

[@LucidStrike]

Concerning the audio with the noisy background, did you know about the Speech Enhancement feature? Apparently reads your lips to help pick out your voice from everything else. Demonstrations have been very effective.

[@Gamer-zk3tz]

I was thinking the same thing

[@markh9194]

Fantastic review, thanks for you work putting it together. I've got the P6 and the camera is amazing, so sharp and crisp. I do most of my editing in LR mobile and adjust the hdr as I see fit. Personally I think the wide angle is a bit soft and don't think I could print bigger than A4, however the main camera is epic. I've noticed on panoramics that it over saturates the colours though and it takes quite a bit of work to bring them back down to normal levels but I need to test it some more to be sure. Fwiw I'm getting 8 hours of screen on time and it gets better day by day as the pixel learns your usage.... It's going to get better with updates as the system grows. Nice one!

fantastic review! I've got my 6 Pro pre-ordered and I'm super excited to shoot with the telephoto lens

[@photographynerd5639]

I spotted your video a little late otherwise I would have commented sooner. As a photographer, appreciate the work you put into the video. I take people like yourself much more seriously than the large mega channels like LMG and MrWhoseTheBoss. I can tell from how you describe composition, telephoto compression, negative and positive space in the frame as well as the limitations of computational photography that you are a real photographer. I have watched about two dozen KZbin reviews while waiting for my pre-order to arrive. The one thing I've seen in common with the videos I've watched is knowing when to use the computational photography is as important as knowing when not to use it and go about it old school manual. It seems Google's portrait mode needs a lot of work and its computational photography has gotten overhyped to God level when it isn't. I would much prefer to shoot portraits using the tele manually in 4x mode instead of the software portrait mode with the fake bokeh. Then edit in post. Hopefully my preorder for the 6 Pro will arrive Monday. I am hoping this phone will reignite my interest again in photography. I haven't touched my DSLRs since 2019. This phone has my hope up since I often wish I had my big camera on me sometimes. Perhaps It will get me to pickup the large cameras again too.

[@azvisuals]

Thanks for your thoughtful comment! For me, almost every phone works well enough and its the cameras that really separate one from another. Especially since I don't want to carry around a full frame camera and lens all the time yet still want to capture good quality images. That is why not having a pro mode on the pixels is really annoying for photographers and power users like us who want to use that creative freedom. But being able to shoot raw and edit in post helps a bit. Hopefully they can introduce a pro mode on the next generation devices.

1-2x and 4-8x aren't necessarily simple crop. Pixel 6 does pixel binning for both main and tele cameras down rezing both from 50 and 48mp to around 12mp. 2x on either camera is just 1:1 readout of the center of the sensor.

[@Vonundzuundso]

The display on my 6 Pro really doesnt seem hollow at all. Listening really carefully, I can hear and feel the tapping sensation change towards the center of the screen, but nothing noteworthy. Maybe visit a google store or tech dealer in your vicinity and check out other 6Ps, maybe the glueing between screen and glass is messed up on your device. Great Video with some awesome shots - i really love the 4x as well :-)

[@azvisuals]

Thanks! I'll have to visit the Google store and test out some other devices

Just a note. You can change how warm the display is in the display settings. I find that the "natural" setting is the coolest of the three. I think "adaptive" is the default.

[@snakesolied2285]

Best review I've seen so far

[@kenbrockman2312]

I have a pixel 6 pro and am also a photography enthusiast. I have had limited use playing with my pixel pro cameras but I agree with your review that the tele looks to be a gem. Hardware appears to be great but hard to tell with all of googles heavy handed processing. I agree with almost everything you mention and dedicated manual settings would be great. I havent tried editing a raw file yet. Regardless , I think the pixel pro camera software needs the following improvements...tone down the HDR , its too aggressive, a slider which allows you to reduce or turn off would be great. White balance indoors isnt very good and getting too much yellow under fluorescent. Also tried to take a photo of my TV and the camera couldnt handle it. Not something I do often but I wanted to share a pic of something I was watching and could not get the camera to get a decent shot at all, crazy colours green and purple. The camera simply could not meter the TV . All of my old phones managed this easily. Oh well keeping the phone, hopefully these are all software related issues that can be cleaned up.

@@azvisuals This was my very first impression when I took the phone out of the box. I think it's due to that hollow sound the screen produces when you tap it, as if the screen was not properly glued to the base, which happened once to my wife's Xiaomi.

[@JoshsBookishVoyage]

@@azvisuals I'm trying to test my 3xl usage as I wait for my 6 pro to get a sense of it vs what my 6pro will be. I use a lot of camera so it may not be that different. We will see. That said, I thought 4+ hrs was a lot ok my p3

[@azvisuals]

@@JoshsBookishVoyage yeah that is a lot. I think 5g also drains battery more

[@JoshsBookishVoyage]

@@azvisuals yeah I was going to turn that off.

Keep in mind that it has 5000mAh battery, so the hardware for a good battery life is definitely there, they just need to optimise the new Tensor chip. Everything is new on the pixel 6, so the software will be playing catch-up the next 6 months.

I'm keeping my Pixel 5a for now. Thank you for video.

Great review and video! I have been enjoying the Camara on the pixel 6 pro.

I read all the comments. This video and comments/responses by Alex were so helpful. Alex is thoughtful to respond to so many comments. Thank you Alex.

[@azvisuals]

Haha than you man! I'm still trying to reply to everyone and answer questions. Will probably have to do a follow up video soon

I just received my Pixel 6 Pro. Loving it!

The Pixel 2xl also has that same hollow feel when you tap the screen. Like plastic.

[@azvisuals]

Oh interesting. Didn't know that!

[@andredegelder7383]

Thx for this intresting photo review ✌️

[@1203santi1]

I feel the same with the hollowness you mentioned, its especially noticeable when phone is vibrating
