Leaked Google video reveals Pixel 4 astrophotography mode

The Pixel 4 may allow photography enthusiasts to do something they’ve never been able to do before with a smartphone camera: astrophotography. A seemingly official marketing video uploaded by Pro Android shows Google’s newest smartphone will feature a dedicated mode for taking photos of the night sky. Unfortunately, the ad provides few details about how the new functionality will work other than to promise you’ll be able to capture “even the stars.” Based on the “hold still” prompt shown in the video, the one detail we can glean is that you won’t need a tripod to use to take advantage of the feature.
