The battle for "The Emperor of Photos of the Year" is really getting worse and worse.
Another machine that has a little bit of interest, but not many people actually pay attention to.
Just when everyone is still immersed in the joy of the National Day holiday.
on the other side of the ocean Google quietly released this year's flagship flagship -
Pixel 7 & Pixel 7 Pro
Regarding the appearance of these two phones, I guess the machine friends have seen it a long time ago, and there are indeed no surprises. The back of
continues the previous generation of explosion-proof shield design.
mainly changes the arrangement of the lenses.
As for the core configuration, compared with the previous generation's upgrade, it is actually not big.
Both brothers are equipped with Google's new generation of self-developed processors - Tensor G2.
is built on Samsung's 4nm process, and the CPU is still a 2+2+4 architecture, and the large core has been replaced by A76 to A78.
Samsung process, everyone knows it.
and other charging, and both mobile phones are also based on the standards of "large international manufacturers". The wired/wireless charging of
Pixel 7 and Pixel 7 Pro are only 21W and 23W respectively. . .
But, speaking of this, Ji Ge's but comes again.
is Pixel after all.
Performance, fast charging... These are not a day or two.
What I want to say is that what Ji Ge cares most about every year is actually its camera.
came to the Pixel 7 generation, and naturally, it is no exception.
First look at the hardware.
Among them, Pixel 7 is a rear dual camera.
0 megapixel Samsung GN1 main camera, plus a 12 megapixel ultra-wide angle.
, while Pixel 7 Pro has an additional 48 million pixel periscope telephoto based on 7.
Samsung GM5 sensor, supports 5x optical zoom .
Seeing this, some mobile phone users may say:
This is not much different from last year's Pixel 6 series?
It is true, but, Google's photos, you know.
hardware is part of it, and it often plays with tricks at the software level.
For example, this generation includes all lenses including the front camera.
Pixel 7 series can support 4K 60 frame video recording.
What about the previous generation? Only the main camera.
In addition, the Pixel 7 series has also added a lot of new work in computing photography.
Photo blur fix
For mobile phone friends who usually like to take pictures of characters. I believe everyone has a deep understanding of the photo taking a blur, right?
, especially for snapshots, sometimes it feels that the composition angle and other things are all very good.
The result is that the photos are blurred and become a waste film.
In order to solve similar problems.
Pixel 7 series has added a new function called Photo Unblur in the album this time.
is translated into plain language, which is "photo blur repair".
doesn’t have much beep.
Let’s experience the processing process:
Another photo is to compare the effects before and after repair.
can be seen, this effect is indeed a bit of a thing.
Whether it is a face or a background, the Pixel 7 series can restore clear pictures well.
According to Google, this effect can be achieved.
is based on the more powerful AI capabilities of Tensor G2.
What's even more sexy is.
Photo Unblur not only repairs photos taken by the Pixel 7 series.
Even if it was taken by other mobile phones, it can also be operated as long as it is imported into the Pixel 7 series album.
super resolution zoom
As we all know, the iPhone 14 Pro series released some time ago.
Because of the arrival of the 48-megapixel main camera, Apple has given them a 2x digital zoom, which is comparable to optical zoom.
Now, Google has done it too.
includes the actual implementation method, and Google is similar to Apple.
Google uses Super Res Zoom algorithms that have been famous for many years.
0 million pixel main camera, when shooting with 2X, you can directly output 1250 pixel photos.
thus achieving an effect close to 2X optical lens.
In addition to this.
In the 2X~5X focal length without lens coverage, the Pixel 7 Pro will also utilize the new machine learning model of Tensor G2.
fuses the 12.5 megapixels of 5X telephoto lens and 2X to output a clearer picture.
As for higher-multiple digital zoom.
Pixel 7 Pro will automatically enable zoom stabilization technology after 15X.
movie dynamic blur
Pixel 7 series has also added a function called "movie dynamic blur" to the video this time.
When shooting videos, you can enhance the character's subject by blurring the background.
From the results of the official demonstration, it is also quite impressive.
self-portrait boot
On the front lens, the Pixel 7 series has added a "self-portrait boot". The function of
should be more useful for myopic users.
When you can't see the phone screen clearly, the Pixel 7 series will use AI to give feedback.
will guide you to complete your selfie better.
In addition to the above mentioned, the Pixel 7 series has also upgraded its real skin color and added macro focus and other functions.
is no exaggeration.
What kind of tricks can you play in computing photography? I have become the most anticipated by Ji Ge every year.
Take last year's Pixel 6 series for example.
Face Unblur, Motion Mode, and Magic Eraser are also the three functions that are quite impressive to Ji Ge.
Face blur, motion mode, magic eraser
First talk about face blur.
In fact, this year's fuzzy fix is a bit like a derivative version of this function.
In comparison, blur fixes are aimed at photos that have been taken.
, and the face is blurred, it is used in the shooting state, or more accurately, it is a capture.
Just turn on this function when facing the shooting of a person in motion.
Then the Pixel 6 series will allow the main camera and ultra-wide angle to shoot at the same time.
Then merge the photos taken by the two lenses to obtain a clearer portrait photo.
sports mode is also a feature that Ji Ge prefers.
is actually what people often call panning .
Take a chestnut, when the character is photographed with his back to the Ferris wheel.
Turn on the sports mode, and the Pixel 6 series will automatically take a set of photos.
Then, by inserting frames, the background produces a dynamic blurred effect.
In addition to the Ferris wheel, there are also water flow scenes like waterfalls:
The subway is galloping past:
Bicycle on the ride:
etc.
As for the magic eraser, it is another function on the album.
There is a random passerby in the photo? Erased them all.
Because it uses Google Tensor's machine learning algorithm. The actual effect of
is much better than that of a number of third-party APPs.
Continue to flip forward.
Pixel started to do the astronomical mode a few years ago, and it was amazing to me when I first came out.
Astronomical mode
The Pixel model that was first added to the astronomical mode was the Pixel 4 released in 2019.
also uses AI to automatically recognize .
When the phone faces the starry sky and has a tripod installed, the astronomical mode will be automatically triggered.
As a dual-camera phone three years ago, it is not easy to take star track photos.
In a long exposure of up to 4 minutes, the Pixel 4 does not only take one photo.
instead take 15 photos exposed in less than 16 seconds, and finally stack them into one.
Google cameras that many netizens like to play now also integrate astronomical mode. Interested aircraft friends can try next one.
Finally, let’s talk about the Pixel 7 series that just released.
At a previous press conference, Google also stated. . .
This generation of Pixel 7 series will be the best photo shoot phone.
Journal brother heard that Teacher Chao next door has already entered a Pro.
Or, when the goods arrive, will Ji Ge go and snatch it for the passengers to test it?
