It’s fixed focus, and the Pixel 4’s selfie shooter is no longer dual-lens as it was in the Pixel 3, but the wide field of view ensures that you can still cram in a decent amount of backdrop or get a group selfie. The telephoto lens offers 2× optical zoom and can go up to 8× digitally with the help of Google’s Super Res Zoom feature.Īround front, there’s a single 8-megapixel lens with an f/2.0 aperture and a 90 degree field of view. There’s also support for phase detection auto focus and HDR. Both lenses have optical image stabilization (OIS). The main camera is a dual-lens affair that combines a 12.2-megapixel lens with an f/1.7 aperture capable of letting in plenty of light, and a 16-megapixel telephoto lens with an f/2.4 aperture. There’s no difference in the quality or the features, so whichever Pixel 4 you opt for, you’ll get the same awesome camera. Good stuff! Camera specsīefore we dig into the details, it’s worth noting that the main and front-facing cameras in the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are identical. There wer similar improvements to Autofocus as well. In March 2020, as part of the second “ Pixel feature drop,” Google announced two camera fixes, one preventing a crash when the Camera app switched to video, the other improving auto white balance in certain lighting scenarios. With the first update, from November of 2019, Google revealed “camera quality improvements” - though what exactly those were was unclear. Thanks to the power of software, Google is able to continually update its hardware, and the camera in the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL is no exception. Still, Google’s Pixel 4 camera is capable of capturing wonderful pictures, preserving your precious memories, and even shooting the stars in the night sky - and we’re about to explain exactly how to do all of those things. In the months since it was released, other phones have pushed phtoography further, of course: Triple-lens cameras are becoming common, such as those found on the LG V50 and new LG V60, and the hot new Huawei P40 Pro comes with a 5× optical zoom that leaves the Pixel 4’s telephoto in the dust. It compares very favorably with the top camera phones available when it was released in the Fall of 2019, with stellar images that left our photographers eager to plumb its depths and learn its ins and outs. The Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL boast the same amazing dual-lens camera, backed by Google’s image processing wizardry. Google sure knows how to make a great camera.
