Although\u00a0getting a next-generation Google Pixel\u00a0may probably seem like an excessive amount of money to you, it cannot be denied that the Californian brand\u00a0gives it a series of exclusive benefits\u00a0that the rest of the Android community would like to take advantage of.\u00a0One of them is its camera App, which has reached its\u00a0GCam 8.8 version.<\/p>\n

GCam 8.8 is the new update of the very popular version 8.7 that was released during 2022\u00a0with the premiere of the seventh generation of its Pixel phones.\u00a0Now, if you have a model that starts from Google Pixel 6 onwards, you can download this App and enjoy\u00a0new features focused on optimizing night captures\u00a0or with a lack of natural lighting.<\/p>\n

This is everything that comes with GCam 8.8<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

GCam 8.8 continues to improve results in night captures<\/p>\n

There is only one protagonist of this update and\u00a0it corresponds to the “Night Sight” mode\u00a0that already existed previously for actions related to taking photos at night.\u00a0Until now, its operation took up to 6 seconds to capture, at which time it asked you to maintain a stable position of the Pixel to avoid falling into motion blur problems.<\/p>\n

Now,\u00a0when you update to the new GCam 8.8 you will find yourself with the advantage of reducing this period of time\u00a0in half\u00a0without sacrificing the focus or lighting of the image obtained.\u00a0In combination with this, an update has been included in its\u00a0compatibility with dynamic range technology (HDR +) with higher quality in ISO settings\u00a0and new noise reduction techniques, and even an option to manually configure the exposure time within this mode. which varies between 2 and 6 seconds.<\/p>\n

How can you access GCam 8.8?\u00a0At the moment, the App is present only for\u00a0Google Pixel 7, 7 Pro\u00a0, Pixel 6 and Pro\u00a0phones\u00a0.\u00a0If you want to try it out on another Android phone, community-edited versions of the app that let you try out these night photography features are likely to appear on the web in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
