G-Cam enthusiasts rejoice! It’s barely been weeks since the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL were launched by Google, but Google Camera ports are already available online, bringing a plethora of cool photography features to unsupported devices. According to XDA, the Google Camera 7.2 mod comes with Super Res Zoom and the new Astrophotography mode – which allows users to capture the starry night skies in all its glory – to older Pixel smartphones.
- Enable Astro mode for Pixel 1 & 2
- Enable Focus options in Night Sight (along with “infinity” – may be same as far)
- Modded lib for Learned Depth in Portrait Mode (Pixel 2)
- Enable Super Res Zoom while zoomed or in Night Sight (no zoom required) – this is like Pixel 3 stock
- Enable auto timer (photobooth), it’s in the selfie camera in the Timer options
- Enable synthetic fill flash for Pixel 2 and enable SFF in Camera mode for 3a
XDA senior member, cstark27, who worked on the mod, said they will also bring other advanced features in the weeks ahead, although, there’s no definitive timeline for that as yet.
