** TRANSCRIPT **
Pixel 7 Pro vs. $7,000 PRO Camera
Kevin Raposo here with speedyphotographer.com - and today, we’re going to be comparing the brand new Pixel 7 Pro to a $7,000 professional camera.
On to the comparison! Here’s how it’s going to work.
The Pixel 7 Pro includes three lenses: a 14mm ultra-wide lens, a 24mm standard lens, and a 120mm telephoto lens. All of the pictures and videos we take with the Canon R5 will closely match these focal lengths - which means that I’ll be using a couple of other lenses to support this comparison as well.
In total, we will be comparing eight pictures and two video clips. All photos will be shot in JPEG format, and the only editing will be slight adjustments to cropping and exposure to ensure the pictures match up. All videos will be completely unedited and shot in 4K at 60 frames per second.
What's the point of this comparison?
Obviously, these two devices are targeted at two very different types of consumers. No professional photographer is going to watch this comparison and decide to start using a phone instead of a dedicated camera.
But it does reveal exactly how far computational photography has come over the past decade.
For example: the telephoto images I took with the Pixel 7 Pro didn’t compare to the R5, but they were incredibly detailed for a phone. And that isn’t just because of the camera hardware- it’s because the phone is simultaneously processing information from all three lenses to produce the sharpest possible image.
And this type of computational photography isn’t possible in a traditional camera, which is why I was honestly blown away by the amount of detail that I was noticing in the Pixel 7 Pro. Portrait mode, night sight, and a number of other technologies have all been rolled into a single piece of hardware and incrementally improved over time. As long as you’re shooting under decent lighting conditions, you’re definitely going to be happy with what you’re getting straight out of your phone - but it still won’t replace a professional camera.

After a couple comparisons I began to notice a trend between the images, notably the “finished” look of the pixel pro, which I can see would be very appealing to the general point and shoot market that doesn’t use post pro tools. Obviously still can’t beat a dslr or full frame mirrorless for overall flexibility and image integrity, but it’s a much better option than carrying around an entry level or mid level camera along with your iphone 6. It’s mind blowing how far cell phone tech has come with their cameras. Great comparison, thanks for sharing!
correct, the images coming directly out of the Pixel 7 Pro were already heavily processed, whereas the R5 would need additional editing to produce the same look - but offered more flexibility. glad you enjoyed the comparison!
@@kevinraposo I wonder when camera manufacturers will start adding software to the cameras
@@bartmariner same here. It's a quite obvious area for improvement (things like HDR and live stacking would be quite interesting options)
And also the raw Pictures look much better in the Pixel, Sometimes the processing is really too much from google
The Pixel is one thing, but if you want to see a REALLY "finished" look, check out images shot by an iPhone, or god forbid, a Galaxy.
Keep your SD cards. I have no use for it. I just bought a Pixel 7 PRO.
And when you will fill space on this 7 pro then what
@@allstarbury move pictures and video to the Google cloud
@@AZRockRunner then you have 1 tb or more free cloud? Na nah thats why i prefer SD card

The artificial sharpening, and over compensation in HDR that led to more noise in shadows, are giveaways. The DSLR photos are smooth and natural in texture in most cases to my eyes. I kind of miss my ignorance... now I want a DSLR :(
This is exactly the kind of camera comparison video I enjoy. Directly to the point, highlighting key differences when appropriate, very sharply produced. Thank you for taking the time to make this video, subscribed!
appreciate it, glad you enjoyed it!
The video 3 vs 4 matchup was interesting as I preferred the look of the Pixel not because it's inherently better, but just because it was more finished right from the camera. So for casual users who just want to point and shoot, a fancy camera kit might actually be a downgrade unless they plan on getting into editing and grading. The Pixel makes a lot of assumptions that might annoy professional users, but will work very well for casual use.
agreed, more processing is required when it comes to anything shot with the R5. the Pixel 7 Pro is doing most of that work for you (targeting casual shooters)
Yes, I would agree with that. P7 looked better.
You can chose other, more punchy colour profiles in dedicated cameras that look more like what the Pixel produced, if you prefer.
I own both Pixel 7 Pro and a Sony A7 IV system with lenses covering distances from 16mm to 400mm. Having sad that I can say that I'm blown away by Pixel 7 Pro's performance. It's an incredible "camera system in a pocket" giving beginners the taste of "real photography" so in future they will have better understanding if they even need a dedicated camera at all or where to start with one.
fully agree!
Sadly those people never will buy a real camera because they are dead-set thinking that DSLR’s or mirrorless are obsolete.
@@ninerlives they probably don't need to buy a "real camera."
only people who make a living with photography do. of course serious hobbyist always will as well.
I got the Pixel 7 Pro a few days ago and I'm also thrilled with the detail of the pictures I've taken with it. There is just one big problem for me. It will never give me the same feeling of photography as a dedicated camera, so it remains just a nice to have for moments when I don't have the camera with me. Nice comparison, thanks for all the work u put in and greetings from germany
I appreciate the kind words, and glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Pretty amazing to see how far phone cameras have come!
Every shot I expected was taken with a professional camera was taken with pixel 7 pro.🤯
Such a great comparison! I feel like phones are the new point and shoots for the super casual photo-consumer who don’t regularly use a dedicated camera.
100% agree
Thank you for your videos and channel. I appreciate your clear and concise style and format. Waiting to see what manufacturer will begin to embrace smartphone functionality, such as security measures and sharing and uploading files, begin to be added to camera technology. Enjoying your channel and wish you all the best from Michigan.
I appreciate the very kind words, they mean a lot! Thank you
Great video! I'm tempted on picking the Pixel 7 pro, so the compressed video quality on that garden stroke me a clean punch. Do you have any feedback on portrait video (not referring to that feature that blurs the background, just general waist up video of people)?
Either way, thanks!
I just received my pixel 7 on Monday night. I'm in a downtown metro area and was shocked by the detail I could pick up from a long range shot in the evening. My daughter does professional photography and you're comparison was spot on, but I completely agree about the shocking advances in the technology.
yep, the telephoto in particular is mind-blowing to see!
congrats! Time for some urban nigh photography !
Great Video I love the comparisons as things are getting close in regards phones replicating the imagery of professional cameras but not quite there yet.
thanks for watching!
Great comparison, appreciate the effort man!
Pretty awesome how well the pixel keeps up, my travel gear is the pixel 6 pro and an old canon 70D... The pixel for things like Instagram stories and the 70D (with some light room tweaks) for the post after... They both suit these jobs perfectly and compliment each other well I find
agreed! the best camera is the one you have with you
Great comparison. Computational photography has definitely come a long way to the point that I rarely take the camera out when shooting vacation snaps.
agreed. it just isn't worth carrying around all the gear anymore
Thank you so much for this comparison. At the moment I'm traveling around eastern Germany and for the first time I'm not using my mirror reflex camera at all. The Pixel 7 Pro is just too handy and offers such amazing results for snapshots, macro or Telephotos that there is no need using my Nikon. Actually there are no words to describe this experience but I need to admit that this tiny mobile phone camera blew my mind.
it's pretty incredible! glad you enjoyed the comparison
This was really incredible to see! I have the Pixel 6 Pro, and have always been really impressed with Google Pixel's cameras. Very neat how close some of the images are to DSLR quality.
Important to remember these were straight out of camera images, you would get better results editing the RAW file from a camera. I do tend to agree if you are buying a camera and not using RAW you are missing out and should probably stick to a phone.
Great video. Been considering shooting a video project on the Pixel 7. This really helped.
glad it was helpful!
You just got me so excited to go out and take some pictures this Friday! I just ordered my Pixel 7 Pro and cant wait to do a comparison with my dslr as well, as a newbe I think I could learn a lot about the different features and terminology about photography. Thanks for the great video!
glad you enjoyed it!
Impressive how far computational photography has evolved! Great video!
glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Thanks for putting this video together Kevin. I use an APSC camera with mid-level lenses for professional work. I have the Pix 7 Pro on order and my wife owns the iPhone 14 Pro. For quick family photos, I don't even think about bringing out my camera anymore unless it is a dimly lit family event, such as a wedding or party. I used my wife's phone to shoot in RAW 48mp and the detail/grain is quite beautiful. It slows down the process too much for quick family photos, but for more professional work it absolutely has a proper place in a workflow.
completely agree, the best camera is the one you have with you - and lugging around a lot of camera gear isn't always an option.
What a detailed review, subscribed your channel man.
glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! Really well produced and excellent comparison. Instantly subscribed.
much appreciated
Interesting comparison. I currently have a Pixel 5, but plan to upgrade to 7. It would be interesting to see the comparison when shooting RAW photos. I just started shooting RAW on my Pixel, but have not yet compared the JPG to RAW.
I debated a RAW comparison, but unfortunately didn't have the time
I photograph as a hobby, I am far from being a professional photographer, and I could tell which pictures are photographed by the Canon every single time. But this does not take away the point how far phone cameras have gotten. The technology is truly outstanding and it is always with you, which is absolutely mind-boggling. The Nikon D850 I use, along with just 2 lenses, is easy 3 kgs (6.6 pounds) of weight you need to carry around, also it takes huge amount of space. Definitely not something one wants to carry around all the time. Given the fact you can just pull out your phone from your phone and get a very decent picture for digital presentation (e.g. to post on instagram) is marvelous.
agree, it's very impressive!
Another great video, so excited to start shooting on my 7 Pro!
Great video that was straight to the point. Appreciated the high content/minute.
really appreciate it, this is what I'm going for with all of the content I put together!
15 years ago, I had a dicussion with one of my students about taking photos with a DSLR vs. a phone. It was a lot easier to position the DSLR as the clear winner. With the tecnology in today's phones, it would be more difficult to pull consumers into the DSLR and mirrorless camp. Your comparison video has clearly made the case for the further dominance of phone photography and videography for the majority of consumers.
agreed and appreciate it!
Phenomenal performance by Pixel 7. It's easy to see how the latest smart phone camera systems have eliminated the P&S cameras from the market...and they're getting better by the day.
I love finding small channels that I'm sure are going to be big soon it's makes me feel special :)
I appreciate you saying that!
Thanks for the excellent and clear image quality test! May I suggest two more tests in the future: (1) image stablilizing test; (2) rolling shutter test. Thanks.
legitimate requests, if I had more time I would have done them. thanks for watching!
If there's anyone out there doing a better job with photography videos than you, Kevin, I haven't come across him/her. Your videos are concise, easy to follow, informative and, from what I can tell, accurate. Your presentation and production values are excellent. Most importantly, I never have to worry that I'm going to be wasting my time when I click on one. This one comparing the Pixel 7 Pro to a "professional" camera, is a great example of all those attributes. I also got a kick out of your reaction to how well the Pixel 7 Pro fared compared to the EOS R5. Keep up the great work!
I recieve a lot of nice comments from viewers, but this has to be one of the nicest of all. This is exactly what I strive for with all of my content. Really appreciate the kind words!
@@kevinraposo You're very welcome, Kevin. I meant every word. I'm a former newspaper and magazine editor and longtime freelance writer/reviewer with high standards for accuracy, succinctness, and credibility. You clearly have similar sensibilities.
Thanks for the comparison. Valuable to see where the R5 and great lenses shine.
glad you enjoyed it
"Valuable to see where the R5 and great lenses shine". Smh. Sorry, Robert but these camera companies have been robbing you all these years. You are taking heart that an Overpriced camera barely holds its own against an $800 cell phone with a tiny sensor.
@@errolsmith5634 Hi Errol, the advances of smartphone cameras IS stunning and in some situations indistinguishable from expensive DSLR or mirrorless cameras. For most people, their smartphone does just as good as the point-and-shoot they would have bought not too long ago. But, there are situations in which a smartphone camera is simply adequate. I can't use my smartphone to capture live sporting events at a distance. For example, a High School football game or an equestrian jumping event. It's not even a competition between my iPhone and my entry/mid-level mirrorless with a 70-200 lens. Now, I'm talking about today's results. Let's chat again in 5 years, and the smartphone will likely have closed the gap a lot (and maybe even completely.) That's the take of Qualcomm's CEO. Right now, in a LOT of situations, my iPhone is just as good, but in some situations, a camera with a specialized lens is required. Happy shooting!
Hi! Very interesting comparison and great explanation.
Thank you!
I appreciate the kind words, and glad you enjoyed the comparison!
I received my Pixel 7 Pro recently and am absolutely amazed at the versatility and quality of the photos it takes. Sunny day, portrait mode, good composition, crop it, dynamic, blur background and you have an incredible photo to email or text. WOW!
glad you're enjoying jt
Nice comparison! Phones are catching up and doing some awesome things, but for those of us who want that last 5-10% we'll stick with our dedicated cameras.
glad you enjoyed the comparison!
A very nice comparison. Changing the photos was a little fast. However - the style of the pixel 7 pro was quite obvious to spot as well as depth of field difference, Bokeh and edge sharpness.
Unfortunately I've to admit that the results of the Pixel looked quite appealing to me.
The niche for the dedicated cameras is diminishing with every new generation.
Would be interesting to see both results printed next to each other. On standard social media size they are pretty close.
glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Love the video. thanks for the info I was thinking which Pixel 7 shall I pick, Now I know.
glad it was helpful!
Amazing comparison, the amount of work put into creating this videos deserves at least 7000 likes ;). Its true computational photography has come a long way almost matching expensive camera photography! Everything just in your pocket
really appreciate the kind words!
I am currently using the Pixel 7 Pro, the camera was the sole reason for this phone, I ditched my up iPhone 12 because I was extremely unimpressed by photos taken on hikes.
I compared them with a friend who had a DSLR and we could not tell the difference easily other than those bright blue skies that seemed more realistic on the Pixel to what we were seeing.
Overall, I am extremely impressed, was even able to zoom into a building 1.7 miles away from my office and see someone standing on the balcony, was wild as hell.
interestingly, I actually did compare the iPhone 12 to a professional camera a couple of years back. the Pixel 7 Pro was an upgrade in my experience
A well-presented video that shows how far phone cameras have come. I won't be replacing my dedicated camera anytime soon, but it's good to know that what I (will eventually) have in my pocket will be suitable for a variety of situations without having to break out the professional gear. One thing I would have liked to have seen is more side-by-side comparisons, especially at 100% and a comparison of skin tones, gradients, and effects due to compression artifacts. This is where I find phone cameras really start to break down.
with more time, I would have liked to break down some of those things as well - but I just didn't have a chance, unfortunately. glad you enjoyed it nonetheless!
Great video! Thank you! Very impressed.
glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the video! Nice comparation.
thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
it's really sick to see how far computational photography has come
Too bad even gcam library such arcide or hitam could out beat pixel 7pro photo
Not gonna lie i bought the pixel day one! But I still love to listen and see all opinions of this amazing type of products like the Canon camera I could never have access to. I love photography and as a designer i wish I had a pro camera. But for what i do as a aficionado knowing a pro phone is gonna give me such a comparable skills is amazing. Great content thank you so much 💕🙌✨
glad you enjoyed it!
Appreciated the comparison, well done. Would like to see future version of this comparison to include other android OEM too.
glad you enjoyed it!
what a great comparison I never would have thought that it would be that close
glad you enjoyed it!
I got all answers right. Shows that though the photos are decent, it still can't beat actual large sensors unless Google allows the shooting in log mode and does something in their computation to add fake bokeh.
in fairness, the Pixel 7 Pro does shoot RAW - but for the sake of this comparison, I stuck with JPEG to see what I would get straight out of camera
I got less than half right, which is amazing and its own right. It's really tough to tell and some of those shots. I've been a canon shooter for 20 years, although I do not own any of their mirrorless cameras ( yet); several DSLRs. I just recently purchased the Pixel 7 pro and I am completely blown away by the quality of photos coming out of this smartphone. Amazing technology.
Too expensive for a phone.
As do most flagships nowadays
@@G-flo This is relevant today, why iPhones are expensive, not counting the enormous markup over parts costs.
They’re primarily competing against themselves.

Very Useful, thanks for that. You have helped me in my decision.
no problem, glad you enjoyed it!
Nice job of comparing pro and phone cameras. Thanks for adding details on the differences.
I appreciate it, glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Thank you! This was an awesome comparison 👏🏻
glad you enjoyed it!
Can we get a download link to the full size photo files of both the Pixel 7 and Canon?
It's hard to truly get a good look with TH-cam compression.
What happens when you look at them on a 4k high quality desktop OLED screen? Or a print? I have a Pixel 5, and when I look at the photos on my computer they appear grainy and you can see the missong details around people's eyes and everywhere.
Now im wondering if I should get a newer phone or a mirrorless camera.
Nicely put together. It's the clarity/hdr look that gives the phone away for me. Nice to have the option to control that rather than having it applied by default!
agreed!
Nice video! Thanks for making it!
glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the video!... Just one silly question though. Is the Pixel 7 Pro better than my Nikon D3000?
Hi I currently have a samsung S20, and I would like to take better photos. I am in doubt between the Pixel 7 pro, or buying a handheld like a Panasonic lumix dc-tz80, canon powershot g9 x mark ii or Sony RX100 for example (between 300-700 $). Would you recommend the Pixel 7 pro over a handheld camera below $700? Thanks!
Nice video and very helpful comparisons!
glad you enjoyed it!
lit, thanks for the info! Very helpful.
glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting comparison video, and really well presented too.
appreciate the kind words!
Hey man, how is the 7 pro compared to a similar priced DSLR camera / ~$1000 or that in the $600 price range?
What were the full frame focal lengths that are comparable to the 3 pixel lenses? I've seen some dubious mm equivs in reviews. Thanks!
I couldn't perfectly match the 14mm ultra-wide lens, but I used a 16-35mm f/4 at the widest possible focal length.
Standard and telephoto lenses (24 and 120mm) were perfectly matched by the lenses I used on the full frame camera.
@@kevinraposo Thanks! Other reviewers were saying the tele 5x was = 200mm, which looked very wrong to my eye (probably they were assuming 50mm = "normal"). 14mm is a pretty impressive ultra-wide though. Thanks for the excellent comparison!
Excellent video. I always enjoy your content! Insightful and well presented!
I appreciate the kind words!

Dude. I appreciate your time on this video. I've taken an amazing little mirrorless round with me for years. And the P7 Pro is the first thing that's made me even consider not putting real distance between my glass and sensor.
glad you enjoyed it!
This was very informative, and I thank you for that. That being said, I felt like I was at the eye Dr during this video.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for your knowledge Kevin! You are my new favorite TH-camr!
I appreciate it!
Nice comparison, thanks!
glad you enjoyed it!
Good video. I have been looking to upgrade my Samsung S20. I have never used a Pixel phone and am discovering it might be worth it to change brands.
Such a nice comparison .. Thanks for sharing
My pleasure 😊
nice comparison. Would also like to know if 2x or 5x works with portrait mode like the s21s22 s23 ultras
not sure
Great comparison Kevin, keep up the great work.
glad you enjoyed it!
This is the kind of camera comparison video's I enjoy, very good examples
glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the nice comparasion between R5 anhd Pixel 7 Pro. For me it is amazing how technology moves forward. I already own a Kingston 128GB SD card, using it in my Nikon Z7II. But I had some problems with writing on the card, I am not sure if it is the camera or the card. On a CFexpress type B I also had some trouble to write on.... is it moisture, but contact or what?
I am upgrading my Samsung 10e posibly with the Pixel 7Pro. LG Bernd
interesting, I have never experienced a similar issue with these cards. possibly a faulty one?
This was a cool comparison. I expected some of the differences to be a much wider spread. wow
glad you enjoyed it!
Great video! I've purchased the 7 Pro and now I'm wondering how it would compare to my dated Canon t2i with its 18Mpixel APS-C sensor.
sounds like you might need to put together a comparison video. lol
I have just ordered one and it'll be in my hands tomorrow I can't wait to try it out the comparisons were great fact I was pretty much right most of the picture pro to me looked as good if not better than the professional mechanism thanks
Nice video! I got most of the comparisons right, but there were a few surprises! I'm used to shooting my Xperia 5 II/IV in raw and post processing, so the aggressive HDR and saturation were dead giveaways for the Pixel images. If you weren't aware, you can shoot Pixel in JPEG and RAW (DNG) so you can totally post process Pixel images with your software of choice :)
glad you enjoyed the video!
I feel like listening to an eye exam but in a good way~ I quite like the content and how you present the photos. Your comments make a lot of sense~
I did feel like an optometrist reading out some of those picture numbers lol
Thanks for the comparison. I'll be picking up my 7 pro soon.
Kevin, thanks for sharing this !
glad you enjoyed it!
Super awesome and precise comparison
I appreciate the kind words!
wow, great comparison! Thanks for the giveaway!
thanks for watching!
Thanks for the no-nonsense eye-opening comparison. Would be great to see an in-depth comparison with mirrorless of similar cost (if there is such a camera?).
glad you enjoyed the comparison!
great detailed comparison!
glad you enjoyed it!
I generally love these types of comparison videos, it's fun to see how far the phone cameras have come with each succeeding generation.
One nitpick, though, is that I find the images go by too quickly to be able to glean anything from the first look (give me a chance to actually look at them before you ask me which is which), and spend just a little more time on each. Yes, I know I can pause them, and no, I don't want the hassle.
An idea for another video, compare the same model of phone over time as far as practical. Maybe see if you can get folks to send you pics taken in the past of some common areas so we can see how they change over time. I sometimes compare photos between my Samsung Galaxy S5, S8, and S20 Ultra, and I find that the S5 with its 16MP main camera does a surprisingly good job of rendering detail in good light. My S8 did very, very well as well, though with not quite as much detail as my S5. It still does better in low light. My S20 Ultra sometimes does an excellent job, but on the zoom camera, it usually leaves a lot to be desired. OTOH, it blows the other two away in lower light and with shadow rendition and white balance.
fair feedback, I have definitely heard your first point referenced by a number of viewers. thanks for watching
Thanks for the comparison!
glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Hey 👋 how is the front selfie cam from the pixel 7 pro?
Great comparison! Really amazing what a mobile phone can do nowadays...
Btw, I've heard that the 10 bits HDR video recording option of the Pixel 7 Pro results into a far better colored video than the regular recordings... Did you have the chance to try that?
yes, videos shot for this comparison were in 10-bit color
Ah, good to hear :) ... Too bad some noise is visible but hopefully that will be solved somewhat in the future updates...
Can you please tell me the average filesize of a 4k60 H.264 vs 4K60 H.265 (store videos efficiently option) videos? (For let's say, one minute of footage?
Btw, I thought that 10 bits colors wasn't possible when using 60fps. Is that true?
Such a great comparison. Love the attention to detail and professional presentation.
thanks, I appreciate the kind words!
I used to do amateur photography only with DSLR. But over time I started using more and more phone. HDR rendering, on device editing, size of device, and last week I ended selling my Nikon D5600 because I realised it’s been 6 months in drawer and all summer vacations photographies were done only with phone. Yes there are things like star photography where phone will never equal dslr but how often I do that ?
Love the comparison!
glad you enjoyed it!
I am looking to upgrade from my Pixel 5 to a Pixel 7 or 7 Pro. Originally, I was leaning towards the 7, since I have smaller hands, but these shots really make me want a 7 Pro. Any thoughts? Besides smaller hands, women's clothes also have smaller pockets, if any. But lugging a DSLR is another level of heavy. Would love any input if you have the time. TY!
Thanks good comparison. I would be interested in comparing the processed raw files from Pixel 7 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro cameras.
so would I. just need someone to get me the iPhone 14 Pro, haha
Great video! Sticking to traditional camera's :)
glad you enjoyed it!
Very informative!
glad you enjoyed it!
Great comparison and presentation, thank you. It turns out, that the twilight of many of our large cameras (and lenses) is not far away :)
glad you enjoyed the video!
Great videos brother. Keep up the good work. God bless. 🙏❤️
thanks man. glad you enjoyed the comparison!
Great review!
Glad you enjoyed it
