Snapper Rocks, Gold Coast with Google Pixel 3
Some
people don’t believe in magic. But that’s until they see their first
breathtaking sunrise light show. Photographers believe in magic and sunrise
landscape is a way to deliver it, to share it with others. Because when you
share something great, it multiplies.
Queensland beaches are pretty beautiful
and I had a spare day so I decided to trek to Snapper Rocks for sunrise. Arriving in time for the
spectacular sunrise, I spent a bit of time practicing capturing surfers and
people on the rocks.
The results were some Impressive images that made it worth
the trip down. It also proved to be a whole lot of fun. Snapper Rocks just
consistently is the most perfect warm water waves on the East Coast, smack in the
middle of Australia’s urbanized surf-center on the southern border of
Queensland.
Smartphone
camera capabilities are getting better and better. The Google Pixel 3 is a
clear sign of where the industry is going. Let me be clear, I love my camera.
The ergonomics of the Nikon D600 and four lens make me go weak at the knees
every time I use it. And the images, oh wow the images, well, I’m totally in
love with them. But there is a key reason I hate carrying Nikon D600 and four
lenses.
I wanted something smaller, something more compact and easy to travel
around with. You know what’s even smaller than the Nikon? The Google Pixel 3. The
Google Pixel 3 says hello, buy the way this phones camera captures scenes in
low light is truly impressive. Using technology they call Night Sight, they’ve
been able to make the camera produce really good quality low light images.
If
someone was to message me, as they often do, and say “I just want a camera that
I can take some quality snaps on when I’m out and about, what do you
recommend?”, I’d absolutely suggest the Pixel 3 or 4. For the hobbyist
photographer, what more could you actually want or need? However, if you’re
more serious about photography, the quality isn’t there just yet, but It can’t
compete with mid-range to premium DSLRs and mirrorless cameras.
