I’ve got the first of many promised courses available for paid subscribers, with a deep dive about the camera and photo features of the under-rated Google Pixel phone.
The Google Pixel has many critics saying that it has the best camera of any smartphone, which may or may not be true.
But I can tell you this: Google has the lowest priced full-featured phone from a major competitor, at $499, several hundred dollars less than entry level phones from Apple and Samsung. And the Pixel has many cool features for photography that are different from the pack, yet, instructions for how to use them are scant.
Have an out of focus photo you’d like to fix? No problem. Let’s unblur it.
Arte there too many weird expressions and closed eyes in your group shots? Google has a fix for it.
Hate having to reach over and snap the shutter when posing for a selfie? The Pixel will take the photo automatically, setting the timer after just as long as you show your hand.
Love making videos, but don’t like how jerky your panning of the scene is? Good news–Google will make the shot smoother.
And on and on.
In this course, I’ll walk you through the maze of menus on the Pixel, showing you the best settings for photos and video, and tour the camera and video modes, so you’ll get a better idea about what you’ve got to work with.
Everything is broken up into short lessons, so watch at your own pace. There are no tests or quizzes, but if you have questions, you can always e-mail me: photowalkstv@gmail.com
Substack paid subscribers can also access the chat service and get right to me.
There will be more courses in the coming weeks about the camera features of the Samsung Galaxy and iPhone, so stay tuned. Also, I’d love to hear from you—are there other photography related courses you’d be interested in as part of your paid subscription?

🗞️ 💥 NEWS!
People ask me all the time about what apps I use to snap photos on the phone, and I usually disappoint them when I tell them it’s the native photo apps on iPhone, Galaxy and Pixel. But for video, it’s a different story. On Thursday’s Live Show at 5 p.m. PT on YouTube, I’ll be discussing how you can use third-party apps to get way better results for your videos. I have also some big NEWS to reveal on the show, so be sure to tune in and hear all about it.
See you there?
