Still, what is the magic behind the hardware and software synergy that allows Google to incorporate such level of optics in its latest flagship family? Let us find out. >According to Google, requiring a telephoto lens is not going to be necessary because combining the camera hardware and software magic, users are able to take ‘DSLR-level’ images by blurring the background and making the foreground appear more prominent. Normally, it would require you to accomplish this with two camera lenses, but Google states that it uses a new sensor that delivers better dynamic range.
