PIXEL 3 VS. $5,000 CAMERA in LOW Light - mind blown 😮 By Pierre T. Lambert

Good morning, everyone today's super special if it's of nuts, because it's freezing, and it feels like the Arctic, no we're going to be comparing a phone, a pixel three to five thousand dollar camera at night, guys I, think I'm going to be blown away and surprised. Let's go all right, I hope you're having an amazing day, welcome to a new episode. It was way too cold outside I had to come back inside to finish my video. So first, let's face it guys. I would never think that the phone could be just as good as a five thousand dollar camera, but the other day Google really is something called Night side, and it's a new mode to shoot photos at night on your phone, so I thought oh I'm gonna, try it that looks pretty fun and I tried it, and then I was like kind of worried that my gear would not follow, and I'm being very, very serious here. So this is not a sponsored video at all I.

Just think this is a future happening right now. I want to share that with you. I want to show you what that technology is doing, why it's kind of mind-blowing, and why, for us photographers, it's kind of awesome to be able to do that whenever, wherever with just a phone, obviously you will see the result. Furthermore, I'm super excited. Let's go shoot a few photos, let's rewind back to when we were outside taking some photos, alright, guys freezing outside I'm telling you it was raining.

It was snowing at one point: I just couldn't get good shots, but I got the Google Pixel three shots and the Sony a7r 3 with the 1635 2.8 shots. So before we get into the details of every shot and I reveal which one belongs to whom I'm gonna, let you guess which one villain to Google pixel, three, which one belongs to the expensive cameras and pro camera. Let me know in the comments below right now, while you guys are boarding below I just want to give a huge shout out to all the new faces here. I want to welcome you guys and I also want to announce that there is a free cheat sheet in the description below that you can download. That is giving you three different types of settings to shoot at night, for example, when you're shooting stars when you're shooting in cities and when you're shooting in just in at night in general, in low-light conditions, I think it's super helpful.

You can put it on your phone and whenever you can't remember what kind of settings to use in manual at night. Well, you just go back to the cheat sheet, so download it right now and with no further ado. Let's dive right into the all the results, so I brought all the images into Lightroom and what happens is that obviously I shot in raw on the Sony, a7r 3, and I try to match the white balance to the one of the Google Pixel 3 to make it a fair comparison. So, let's start with the first shot under the tunnel like all the shots, are kind of boring, but because the exercise was really about focusing on the difference and if it looks good on it. So I want to zoom in a little here and just to show you on the left here guys I'm, going to break it to you on the left is the Sony a7r 3 on the right.

We have the Google Pixel 3 and the settings for the Google picks an of 3 where's F 1.8, one third of a second ISO 64 and form my shot. It was actually one second F 2.8 and ISO 100. It's not bad that low-light! Well, you need a super long exposure, but what is crazy already, let me know in the comments, if you see the difference first, you see that the whole pole are totally sharp on the phone picture and clearly the sharpness has been increased and all that, but because it's a fun because it's a tiny sensor, you get way more depth of field. So that's a way also to tell which camera shot. What to be honest, but look at that if you look at it, if you look at it like that, you could almost it's very difficult to tell which one comes from, which camera it's kind of impressive and the way they achieve taking this kind of photos is with a new technology.

It's something that astrophotographer I've been doing for. While you basically take several photos of the same thing over a short period of time, and you overlap the images now what the phone does is. It has a maximum meter inside, and it takes everything into account. It takes how fast you're moving like if you're shaking on that, and it adjusts the shutter speed, depending on that, once it takes a shutter speed, it takes about six shots so, for example, six shots of one third of a second, the sixth shot of one. Second, it depends on the situation if you're on a tripod, it's going to be longer, and it matches them.

It processes all the shots together straight into your phone and then boom. This is a result, so I'm going to show you why you can tell straight away that this is processed. Is simply when you look at shots with a first moving that shot on the pixel 3, even though you feel like it's a long exposure when you shot it, it's actually, almost as if it was for me to freeze the action you see, the biker is kind of moving its kind of weird, but if I look at the same shot to get the same kind of exposure without noise, unless you need a signal three, you can clearly see that the biker is like a ghost. It's a long exposure and the person is just flowing in the wind. I also took different kind of situations, so, for example, I went outside the bridge and I started, taking with the train passing by now, guys guess what this was shot with.

Maybe you can tell from the movement of the train. This was shot with a Google, pixel 3. It's kind of crazy, and I want to stop here and if you're thinking, oh he's just trying to tell us, the phones are going to replace cameras. No, no, no I'm, not trying to tell you that at all I'm trying to tell you that that technology that's getting built into your phones right now, is so freaking powerful that I think the day it comes in or big cameras, it might become absolutely mind-blowing. I wouldn't be surprised if, within three to five years, I'm able to take Castro photography without a tripod, just handheld, you might think it's crazy I think it might be very possible very soon, we'll see who is Right.

Who is wrong, but let me tell you I wouldn't be surprised, so this was with the Google picture of three, and this is with the Sony a7r three, so you can see. Obviously it's with a camera, so you have a long trail versus the other camera as it took several shots and slap them together. Are you have faked the train? Not take it's not fake, but you have like several movements of the train that they have tried to be put back together in terms of the lights here. I don't see, I mean there is a difference. There is a difference.

You clearly lose definition because obviously the or three has 42 megapixels, but also I, think you lose a little of details very fast on the highlights and as you can see, what the processing on the JPEG of that of the Google Pixel 3, we used also a lot the highlights, because if I were to do it right now, look if I take my am not 3, and I reduce the highlight it's actually making it look a little closer to the other shot, so I mean a bit far, but we're almost there. So next shot is actually with a car. So that's something you will never be able to achieve with This is, since you can't shoot that six f-16, oh, so you can't have that Sun stars, and also you don't have diaphragm inside so inside you land. So that's something you and your camera will always be able to achieve. No matter what you're doing, because you can't get that on the phone.

That's not possible, look same shot, yeah, it kind of looks bad. So that's good point for the camera wait and, as you can see the car again totally different, so just to give you an information. This was shot four seconds at 11:26, millimeter, ISO 100, and this one was 114 every second f1, eight slap together, ISO 57, so you can see a big difference, but look at that. The quality of the low-light is just mind-blowing. Let's say you do justice from me: yeah what you want to have fun or with your friend family at night.

This is this crazy good, in my opinion, now this is another example: that's shot with a pixel three. You might be able to tell now, because you'll never get that smooth long exposure field that you get on the other camera. Look at that you get the sky, that's moving slowly, because I showed that six seconds to the water is kind of. How do you call that, like super flat and nice, it's totally different, so you will always have a difference between those two, but I just want to highlight that, for example, that shot I mean versus that shot. It's not it's not such a big difference and having the ability to get that in your phone is just mind-blowing in my opinion and I just couldn't believe it at the beginning.

We talked about it with a few friends, and I was a man that is crazy, that new updated released. It's just yeah, it's just mind-blowing together, so guys. Let me know in the comments, if you shoot with your phone, if you have ever tried to do it at night, because I know long exposures on phones, I usually limit it to one. Second, if you've tried it, let me know what is your phone? Why kind of set up? Do you like for me? I just put that phone on a tripod or a handheld it a few times just to try and for my camera, well, I, just loved using the tripod at night or a mini tripod, and all that it's just fun to go urban, exploring in the city to shoot at night. It's super quiet and cool, so I hope this has inspired you to go and try a little of night photography.

You remember the cheat sheet is in the description below you can download it. It's going to be super helpful. Just if you don't know what kind of settings to use again, you can always go back to that and with that being said guys, thank you. So much for the support. I will see you and the next episode and a new adventure, because I'm leaving very soon on the scrip and it's going to be a challenge.

Lets fridge, / everything whew, it's going to be good. Super excited so guys get out there. Good should try something different. Try something new, and I will see you in the next episode. Oh god, I forgot.

If you knew here please hit the ice cube, is here B button ring dollar education bill to make a huge stone. It's gonna, be amazing, and I will see you in the next episode. Just like I said see you guys bye.
