Moto One 5G Camera Samples

Moto One 5G, ultrawide camera. The ultrawide lets me take in more of the Williamsburg bridge. Zoom in a little and you'll see a lot of grain.

Moto One 5G, ultrawide camera. This looks like an oil painting. The detail is so blotchy that you can't see any fine details, and the colors are muted.

Moto One 5G, Portrait mode. Crisp details and an accurate-looking blur effect make this a winning shot for me.

Moto One 5G, main camera. I'd like a little more contrast here, but this is a nice photo otherwise.

Photograph: Julian Chokkattu05Moto One 5G, Night mode. Compare this with the following photo. This image lacks depth. It's very flat and tries to expose everything well, but it looks too processed and is very grainy.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu06Google Pixel 4A, Night Sight. The nicer colors, contrast, and detail all make this the photo I'd share out of the two. You can even see individual leaves on the trees far clearer than on the Motorola phone.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu07Moto One 5G, main camera. There's something bizarre going on with the tree on the left, and I don't like it.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu08Moto One 5G, main camera. I like this photo mostly for the dog, but I'm thankful I was able to quickly snap it—there wasn't too much of a shutter delay, unlike on some other affordable phones. You can see the Moto struggling with the bright sky, though.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu09Moto One 5G, Night mode selfie. It's not amazing, but Night mode lets you take shareable selfies in low-light conditions.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu10Google Pixel 4A, Night Sight selfie. The Pixel is more aggressive with its color correction and it's a hair sharper, but not by much.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu11Moto One 5G, main camera. I like the natural bokeh here as the camera focuses on the food. It's a detailed, sharp photo, with nice colors too.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu12Moto One 5G, main camera. In any kind of contrasty scene like this, the Moto often cranks up the noise as you can see under the bridge. Colors in the surroundings aren't great here, looking a little washed out.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu13Moto One 5G, main camera. This is a solid photo overall, with decent detail and fairly natural colors.
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu14Moto One 5G, macro camera. My attempt at shooting a macro close-up at night. The ring light around the lens isn't too powerful, but the bigger issue is that the shutter isn't fast enough to give you good results in low light.
