Nice video on the Long Exposure setting. I bought the Pro due to it's long lens which the regular 8 lacks. If it wasn't for that feature, I'd have gotten the 8. Still learning about this camera as only had it a month. As a long time photo enthusiasts, it will be a while before my skill catches up to the cameras ability.

Hi @20111111jorg many thanks for your comments. Glad you liked the video about the long exposure. Wow, I am sure that you will have hours of fun with your Pixel 8 Pro. It is definitely a benefit having that optical zoom. Enjoy. Take care and be safe. Andy.

As for the "how" of the Pixel 8 long exposure it basically records a series of photos and does some computational photography behind scenes. On iphones you can do it by making a Live photo and then in the Photos app when you click on Live option you will have a Long exposure option in the menu, iphone will use the frames of the live photo to create the long xposure shot. Therefore on both devices you will see the same shutterspeed for both normal and long exposure photo.

Many thanks for your clear explanation of how the Pixel 8 creates its "Long Exposure" photos. That is what I assumed also as the shutter speed was the same for both photos but with a completely different look. I hope you found the video interesting. Take care and be safe.

Nice informative video. But I see excess un related information. It will be better if you can keep the video short. Better stick to the topic this way it will be short and accurate. But the video is great.

Many thanks for your comments and advice @BookofBatzee Glad you found the video informative.

How did you secure the ulanzi am18 buttonhole like that?! Did you put it on magnets? Please tell us what and how you did for this. and whether it can then be placed in the charging box. Thank you

Hi @IngVision Many thanks for your comment. I hope you liked the video. So I took a very small piece of that thick double-sided silicone tape which is so popular at the moment and stuck it to the back of the mic transmitter then I stuck a small round button-like powerful magnet to the silicon tape and put another of the magnets under my sweater. I picked up the magnets in a pack of 10 on AliExpress for less than 2 dollars. And in answer to your question, no it will not fit in the charging case with the magnet and tape connected but it is easy to remove the magnet and tape and put it on again for the next shoot. Keep watching. If I find a better solution I will let you know.

@@IngVision My pleasure. I found that the microphone stayed very secure like this and it did not create lines/wrinkles in my sweater.

@@IngVision I am very happy with the mics as wireless mics. I have not tried the internal storage yet but when I have fully used them I will probably make a video about them. What do you think of the audio in the video where I am using the Ulanzi mic? I made very small audio adjustments to reduce echo from my audio file. My small studio has a low ceiling which creates echo.
