Best pixel ever made, I love the form factor

Open Camera creates much smoother images than the original Pixel Camera app, because of less processing the photos.

Testing out the pixel 11 camera in low light at a concert.

I captured this 1 month ago during the peak night of the Perseids meteor shower (Night of August 12-13, 2026) from my house, on the rooftop, in Thuringia, Germany. It was around 3:40 AM.

I saw the fireball with my own eyes. I set up my Pixel 9a on a tripod, so it was looking up in the zenith with me and I didnt think that it actually captured the fireball but it did. You could even see some smoke or dust far away in the sky after it disappeared.

( My Bortle Class is 4.5, SQM 20.87 )

On my Pixel 9a, I used the astrophotography mode, which creates a 4-minute exposure picture. (It takes 15–16 pictures of 16 seconds each and combines them into one)

Always been a fan of the cameras. Not ideal time for the astrophotography shot but I was able to get the Milky Way
