New Google Camera version will put Night Sight mode on the main screen

04 July 2019
Currently, you have to call it up from the More screen. This version of the Camera app was found in a leaked Android Q build.

      Note7 owner, 04 Jul 2019Google Night sight puts those big Rebel DSLR to shame. Sorry to burst your bubble but NO, Gcam's night sight feature doesn't even come close to what a Rebel DSLR can do, not even by the wildest stretch of the imagination. Unless of course if you just use the mediocre kit lens of the Rebel DSLR and only use it in full auto mode because you don't know anything about lenses and manual DSLR settings.

        Anonymous, 04 Jul 2019Terrible idea from Google to remove manual white balance. T... moreI agree. It's unfortunate Pixel owners get the dumb/crippled version of the Gcam with night sight with no option to change settings, while users of other Android phones with ported Gcam versions get to enjoy additional options and tweaks for the best night sight image quality. Google really thinks Pixel phone owners are too dumb and have zero photographic literacy that's why it has to remove even the very useful manual white balance setting that frankly, doesn't take a genius to figure out what it's for.

            About time... I hate how it is currently

              Night mode as Google Cam itself is a masterpiece of software develop. So happy to have in my S9+, the 6.2 version works amazing.

                Google Night sight puts those big Rebel DSLR to shame.

                  Terrible idea from Google to remove manual white balance. That's a step backwards. I use Google's white balance presets nearly all the time.

                    Makes sense. I use NightSight more than Panorama on my 3a so this is a nice change.

                      Good move. Hope they fix the bug that loses photos. My 2Xl did it recently, can't get them back.
