The Super Google Pixel 2 Camera Upgrade!

2017-11-11
yo guys johnathan here just shop the video on some of the best iPhone 10 accessories and today got something for the pixel 2 and pixel 2 xle there's no secret that has probably the best smartphone camera in the game right now if you disagree let me know what your pick is with a comment down below but today if you're a pixel fan get excited because I got a couple of gadgets that should elevate things and take full advantage of the amazing camera inside the pixel 2 so this is a two piece case slash lens combo from moment and how it works do you pop on the case and that then adds a layer of modularity in the sense that you can swap out different lenses there's a wide angle a telephoto fisheye and even a macro for those super close tight shots so the first thing that immediately jumped out to me with these is build quality presentation are all extremely well done and they are built like a tank they are freaking heavy I'm let you own a little secret before every Austin Evans video he curls these eight hundred and fifty six times and that is a secret to those Ekans gains speaking a presentation anything that comes in a case or a bag always makes you feel just a little extra special inside here we have the wide-angle lens and I'll pop it out they also include a lens cover so you're not gonna scratch that glass which is really nice very well-thought-out here's the telephoto sixty millimeter lens and again same deal their lens cap it is just a really well thought out system now as far as installation goes we have a marker here on the case we have a marker here on the lens so they make it extremely simple to not screw this up pop it in slide we have the moment logo there you can clearly see once you take the lens cap off at the 18 millimeter sight in there and now it's time to test this guy out so to give you an example of how much this alters your field of view I'm gonna snap a photo here but I'm also gonna pop off the lens and show you how much that alters the image so we had that beautiful wide image now we are much more cropped in I'm gonna snap a photo and take a look back at these pictures the standard stock lens in the pixel 2 that's a great picture but as we swipe over to that wide-angle shot you can see so much more in there you see the sky we got that streak going across into the Sun peeking out of the corner it's doing a great job with the highlights you're not really losing any quality you're just getting an amazing looking white shot it's pretty incredible seeing that makes me want to pop this immediately back on because we got some beautiful Sun creeping through that tree I'm gonna see if I can catch that right now we got them palm trees and if I were to take this off there's no way we are getting that much yeah that's like crowding your image there's no way we are getting that much detail I would have to scoot way to hell back there man can I just give the pixel to some major credit right here the sky is completely visible but we are still getting that beautiful ray of sunshine blasting through those leaves beautiful now on top of photos these lenses will also work through video so what you're watching right now is me being shot through the pixel - with that wide-angle lens it's got to make this little bit of scenery look extra cinematic but if we were to take that lens off you guys can see how much of that wide-angle we are losing I have no idea what this looks like right now I'm sure it is nowhere near as cool as before well let me know with a comment down below of what you think of the quality with the lens and without lastly there is one shot I want to get part of me really wished as this light bulb was on because that would be a freakin cool shot but I'm still gonna try to get it anyway I don't think I would normally be able to get anything close like this without the wide-angle lens so if I could just get a little bit of exposure bring that down snap it and that is a really impressive image now if I were to swipe this off yeah that is cool but it's nowhere near that wide-angle shot just adds a whole layer to that photo now quick update additionally I wasn't the biggest fan of needing a case to use a lens but the more and more I use it the more I find myself liking it one it's not something you got to think about you just swap it on and you're good and two if you've ever used those lens attachments that don't require a case sometimes they don't always align properly but with this you get it perfect every time so we've seen what that wide-angle lens can do now it's time to check out that telephoto lens we're gonna add some length to this pixel to pop it on pop the lens cap off I think we're going to test it out with this nice little arrangement of flowers right here what I'm saying immediately right now is some really nice blur in the background it's got a super nice roll-off this is not in portrait mode I'm gonna snap a photo but you can see that is really nice for reference I'm going to pop this off and we should effectively lose all that right now so yeah you can see the image is nowhere near as compressed with this we still see a little bit of that in the background but comparing it to this shot with a telephoto lens on you can see we got that nice circular fall-off ball action bokeh bouquet whatever you want to call it it is pretty as hell now to kind of take that one step further what I'm going to do is pop the lens back on and also check out this whiff portrait mode enabled and see what that does so right off the bat that's going to crop us in just a little bit further we have some nice foreground going on we still have that ball in the background I'm gonna take the shots let it process and right there that is pretty impressive so we see a little bit more blur in that light in the background but either way with or without portrait mode having this telephoto lens is a really nice addition from there rich let's flex those breads we got rich and frame photo taken one without the lens just for safety now we see all your legs in that shot take it a look back so that is without the telephoto lens it's pretty nice yeah oh that's really nice look at that a little flare - yeah I love what it does with the background the blur the Sun it holds all those highlights this is pretty damn cool I thought I was gonna be able to move that I wanted to bring the flowers so I catch the Sun it's not gonna happen oh we got a train coming quick rich hit me with the stand hook me up this is also a really good test of how quickly you can get set up look man I'm like one of those uh Instagram kids this guy I'm following what's his name it's Steve Steve is moving it my way holy crap man using this telephoto lens on video right now like that is freakin crazy it's like portrait mode all the time but in video I'm not sure how that affects stabilization so let me know what you guys think but just what I'm seeing right here so the viewfinder is kind of crazy like the light behind it that is some insane footage so with this that is gonna add a complete different layer to your arsenal with a pixel - in terms of video now I'm not gonna lie initially when I saw these I was a little skeptical especially because of the price point they aren't the most insane things in the world but they're also not the cheapest I guess in the grand scheme of things when you compare it to other camera gear out there it kind of makes sense the build quality the fact that it's well presented you have a case you have a lens cap it all kind of makes up for that price more importantly the image quality that wide-angle lens was awesome but after seeing what this did especially for video it is definitely won me over with that said that has me super excited for these to come to the iPhone can I believe they are currently available for the eight and a plus right now but as we know I think the pixel 2 and the iPhone 10 are currently lead to best in the game aside from that thank you guys very much for watching - hopefully enjoyed the video if you did and you are feel like being awesome make sure go Rich's bread on that like button if you missed it we are currently giving away a brand new Xbox one X Scorpio edition you can check that out here or in the link below this is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later
