We Ask Google About the New PIXEL 8 PRO!

Thanks to OM SYSTEM for sponsoring this episode of the PetaPixel Podcast! Remember the photo industry buzz of November 2020? That’s when the highly anticipated M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25X IS PRO lens made its grand entrance. If you blinked, it was gone – sold out within just 24 hours. The aftermath? A three-year period on the backorder list. Navigating through intricate and precise assembly processes, order fulfillment at times extended beyond a year; The excitement is back, though: the M.Zuiko Digital ED 150-400mm f/4.5 TC1.25X IS PRO Lens is now available at explore.omsystem.com/petapixel or at your local authorized retailer for $7,499.99 without delay. Get yours today! -- This week, Chris, Jordan, and Jaron are joined by Isaac Reynolds, the subject matter expert on the Pixel cameras at Google. He’s worked at Google since 2014 and is responsible for managing the team overseeing camera design, research, and development. The three discuss the new innovations in the Pixel 8 Pro, the technology that makes it special, and Google's overall design philosophy when it comes to smartphones and cameras. We use Riverside to record The PetaPixel Podcast in our online recording studio. We hope you enjoy the podcast and we look forward to hearing what you think. If you like what you hear, please support us by subscribing, liking, commenting, and reviewing! Every week, the trio go over comments on YouTube and here on PetaPixel, but if you’d like to send a message for them to hear, you can do so through SpeakPipe. -- In This Episode:
