There are several very cool camera features on the Google Pixel7 and Pixel7Pro that you must try out. Here's how to find them, and what they do.
If you’re opening the camera app on your Google Pixel 7 or Pixel 7 Pro and simply pressing the shutter button, then admiring the photo in the gallery app afterward, you may be missing out on a few very special features Google has hidden away. And they could really increase your enjoyment of this excellent camera phone.
These two features rely on Google’s AI to recognize objects and then add a creative blur to them or around them, in much the same way it does with Portrait mode when shooting photos of people. You’ll need the right situation to make the most of these two features, and you’ll need patience, as understanding what situation best suits which mode only comes with experimentation and time. They’re fun to try, but don’t expect amazing results every time.
The 2x zoom with macro enabled is the best option on the Pixel 7 Pro, as there is very little stabilization when you use the 5x zoom mode, and the image in the viewfinder moves around a great deal — making it hard to tell if you’re going to get a good shot. The 2x photos also have more detail and are less “digital” than the 5x photo, and you can see examples of both in the gallery above.
Camouflage This is a recent addition to the Magic Eraser toolkit. The idea behind Camouflage is to reduce the impact of objects that Magic Eraser may not be able to remove cleanly. For example, if there’s a brightly colored object in your scene, changing it to a different color may help it blend in more, and that’s the basis of this feature.
Luckily, you don’t have to work hard to use Unblur. Open Google Photos, find a blurry photo, tap Edit, and then if Unblur doesn’t show up as a Suggestion, the option can be found under the Tools menu. Remember you can tap and hold on the photo after Unblur has worked its magic to see the before-and-after effect.
Portrait Blur, Portrait Light, and Color Focus There are three tools that are designed to enhance your selfies or photos of other people. Have you got photos that weren’t taken with Portrait mode and find the background distracting? That’s what Portrait Blur is for, because it uses the same technology that blurs the background in your front camera selfies, then applies it to photos already in your gallery.
