In this video I talk about the Long Exposure mode for creating shutter drag effect images in the Google Pixel 8 stock camera and how easy it is to obtain pro-style images without the need to have any knowledge of photography.
The Google Pixel 8 camera has been designed for shooters who do not necessarily know how to obtain pro-style results or maybe do not want to go through all the process of determining the correct shutter speed, aperture and ISO for each style of image.
On the Google Pixel 8 Camera all you need to do is select one of the different camera modes and the Pixel 8 will do the rest for you and give you stunning images at the click of a button , without all the hasle of determining the correct settings.
I also give a Top Tip on what to do if you are trying to decide on which to buy: the Google Pixel 8 or the Google Pixel 8 Pro .
I hope you like the video and find it useful and informative.

As for the "how" of the Pixel 8 long exposure it basically records a series of photos and does some computational photography behind scenes. On iphones you can do it by making a Live photo and then in the Photos app when you click on Live option you will have a Long exposure option in the menu, iphone will use the frames of the live photo to create the long xposure shot. Therefore on both devices you will see the same shutterspeed for both normal and long exposure photo.

Many thanks for your clear explanation of how the Pixel 8 creates its "Long Exposure" photos. That is what I assumed also as the shutter speed was the same for both photos but with a completely different look. I hope you found the video interesting. Take care and be safe.

Great video, just try to limit the number of cuts. I find it very distracting. Keep up good work 💪

[@photechvideo]

@@thomasvoga Many thanks for your comments and feedback which I will take on board. Glad you liked the video. Take care and be safe. Andy

Nice video on the Long Exposure setting. I bought the Pro due to it's long lens which the regular 8 lacks. If it wasn't for that feature, I'd have gotten the 8. Still learning about this camera as only had it a month. As a long time photo enthusiasts, it will be a while before my skill catches up to the cameras ability.

Hi @20111111jorg many thanks for your comments. Glad you liked the video about the long exposure. Wow, I am sure that you will have hours of fun with your Pixel 8 Pro. It is definitely a benefit having that optical zoom. Enjoy. Take care and be safe. Andy.

Thank you for this video. I have learned a lot about my Pixel 8 pro!

great video

Nice informative video. But I see excess un related information. It will be better if you can keep the video short. Better stick to the topic this way it will be short and accurate. But the video is great.

[@photechvideo]

Many thanks for your comments and advice @BookofBatzee Glad you found the video informative.

How did you secure the ulanzi am18 buttonhole like that?! Did you put it on magnets? Please tell us what and how you did for this. and whether it can then be placed in the charging box. Thank you

[@photechvideo]

Hi @IngVision Many thanks for your comment. I hope you liked the video. So I took a very small piece of that thick double-sided silicone tape which is so popular at the moment and stuck it to the back of the mic transmitter then I stuck a small round button-like powerful magnet to the silicon tape and put another of the magnets under my sweater. I picked up the magnets in a pack of 10 on AliExpress for less than 2 dollars. And in answer to your question, no it will not fit in the charging case with the magnet and tape connected but it is easy to remove the magnet and tape and put it on again for the next shoot. Keep watching. If I find a better solution I will let you know.

​@@photechvideoThank you!

[@photechvideo]

@@IngVision My pleasure. I found that the microphone stayed very secure like this and it did not create lines/wrinkles in my sweater.

[@IngVision]

@@photechvideo What do you think about the microphone itself? Are you happy with them?!

[@photechvideo]

@@IngVision I am very happy with the mics as wireless mics. I have not tried the internal storage yet but when I have fully used them I will probably make a video about them. What do you think of the audio in the video where I am using the Ulanzi mic? I made very small audio adjustments to reduce echo from my audio file. My small studio has a low ceiling which creates echo.

Be a lot better if you talked normally and not like some AI auto bot and stopped using your hands, soooo distracting

[@photechvideo]

@@bazwillrun Thank you for your feedback. Gesticulating has always been a part of my communication. Maybe the AI auto bot speaks like me as I have had this voice longer! I hope you found the video's content useful which is the prime reason that I spend hours creating videos for my channel. Sharing is caring! Take care and be safe. Andy

Nice video, but please speed it up a bit. I found speeding your video to 1.25 on YT was much better. ***UPDATE*** 3minutes in and all I'm hearing you say (at 1.25x speeded up) is what you're NOT going to say and what you are going to say. And then, you start telling me what your research on Google told you were the differences between phones is...... Clue: I came on here to learn about Long “Exposure Mode and Pro-Style Images”, so I gave up watching because I couldn’t go through any more of this. Please bear in mind people these days are absolutely swamped with video recommendation/suggestions and time is precious. Keep it short and to the point.

[@photechvideo]

@@Jez2008UK many thanks for you feedback. The long and the short of it is that the Google Pixel 8 simulated long exposure mode is a fun feature to play about with. I did my research before making the video and explained it as I did not want to give information that was not correct. I also hear you with reference to time available for watching KZbin videos and I thank you for giving your opinion. Take care and be safe. Andy

[@Jez2008UK]

@@photechvideo that’s fine Andy, I’m just giving you free advice, I learned at uni what you did is the right way to give a presentation, I.e. say what you’re going to say, say it, say what you have said……but that was nearly 40 years ago, I think the world of KZbin has changed all of that:)

[@photechvideo]

@@Jez2008UK thanks for the advice. It is greatly appreciated 👍

You could simply 2x the speed or use the skip function, rather than expecting him to create his videos around your specific preferences. That's how I usually get my free information.
