Front cameras:
Ok , here we go. I bought two front cameras with usb first was this model R0003 L2 ( search on ebay) which was made for external use. So when i put behind the glass the image was kind a blurry but when i remove it from the glass the image became more sharp. So my advice is buy this model of camera: ebay camera
I am using it for 3 days and i must say that for this money is much better then R0003 L2, camera has night vision and it can take videos up to 720p. And if anybody knows the name of this model tell me so i can remove link to ebay .
Rear camera:
I have mounted this camera:rear camera
And i must say that quality is good for that price, but i must say that its not waterproof so if u will buy , glue all holes/openings so the water couldnt enter. The camera has also night vision, which is pretty good help to rear light
You are welcome to join discuss and also post some reviews of other cameras (rear and front).

Found an old disposable camera at work today, and snaffled the lens from it - 10mm diameter, 20mm focal length. Armed with a bit of blu-tack, I now have a THD microscope
Autofocus doesn't figure (it focuses fine but the range is only a few mm) - nevertheless I'm kinda smug about the results from 5 mins work with bit of junk and a craft knife
Next time you find something in the trash that used to be a camera, grab it!
nice!
i don't want to be a partycrusher... but....
http://www.quickmark.cn/En/basic/hotnews.asp?#200909211
...not as cheap as yours...
Yeah, found that when I googled, but aside from only fitting iphones it's a bit.... orange...
I vaguely remember someone was doing a commercial clip-on lens for the HD, but can't track it down. There are some blogs where they suggest using the lens from a DVD player, but I don't fancy cutting up a gadget worth more than the phone! Tried the lens from a dead webcam but it's too short - exxxxxxtreme zoom but out of focus except in the center.
Great result.
you can get one of the jewler's magnifying glass and use that as a macro lens
im looking for a zoom lens solution
HI all
Im really disappointed with the camera result for dell venue.
Its just too blurry and colour combination also not so great.
I feel my older galaxy y with 2mp had better sharpness and sensors.
Night photos with led is useless.Cant even get proper faces in it.
Is this the problem with every1 here?Or its just that the handset i have has some problem with cam?Users sample images will make it clear.

Its very bad quality camera as u can see
Take a good look at the plastic built into the rear cover that covers the lens. Take a picture with the rear cover taken off, on mine the clear plastic piece that covers the lense was terrible and I had to clean it really well, and may still just remove it. Without the back cover, the pictures are actually fairly good.
Hey thanx...yes i think the backcover lense is the problem.
Removing backcover photo is slightly better!
Hi fellow p20 pro lovers,
Just like many, i bought the p20 pro for the awesome photo camera and i collected many different phone lenses over the years.
I use the lenses mostly for macro shots and some lenses has been a hit it miss due to sharpness and dark corners.
I own a couple cheap lenses and a few apexel kits with wide angle macro combo or the fish eyes star + star filter combo.
Now since 4 weeks i have this case:
http://www.kasecn.com/en/show.aspx?ID=1168
And i think its pretty good but not perfect.
The things i like is that the case feel very premium but its hard to get the phone out without using the provided tool.
Also the lens mount is 17mm so most my lenses bit while 2 didnt. I also bought a step adapter to go from 17mm to 37mm so that i can mount my bigger apexel macro+wide angle to my phone also.
What i like about the apexel macro is that the focus point is a bit further away so you dont have the be super close like my other 17mm macro lenses.
So now that i got my case and lens ready my next step is to try to use external light sources so that i can create beter focus in the photos and get better sharpness.
My lens case was 15 euros on aliexpress.
The 12 5x macro with wide angle was 10 euros and the 2 apexel macro lenses where 7 euro.
I also know that momentum makes nice lenses for some iphones and pixels but i dont think they will fit on this case.
Maybe some other users can recommend nice lenses?

Here are some photo's of my lenses and other gear.
Hi, can we have some examples of the photos you get with those lenses ?
I'm actually looking for some !
That camera case looks brilliant, should be more of them.
Any links for it to buy.
What sizes does it support?

you can find them on ebay and aliexpress but prices differ here and there and i got mine from ali for 15 euro. The case it self takes 17mm lenses, which is what most sold lenses are but i also got a step up ring that does 17mm to 37mm so that i can take the bigger lenses also without any problem. Check the first post with updated pics of the gear i got.

Hi Ritchie, I have just bought the Kase phone cover from AliExpress which arrived today. I too have a good 37mm macro lens but I can't find a step up ring from 17mm to 37mm. Can you tell me where you bought this please. Also, do you know if most of the Apexel lens sets are 17mm? It doesn't say online. Thanks.

Hi RiTCHiE007
I'm interested in finding a good quality but fair price camera lens kit for my huawei p20 pro, that DOESN'T require a specific case for the phone. Im quite pleased with my current case, and won't be taking a lot of photographs so that shouldn't be the main function for the case. The lens set you review here, is that usable without the case? or can you recommend a lens set that doesn't require a case?
Best regards
Andreas
Hello there, this is dedicated to all my photographers and videographers of LG G8x.
First things first, no matter what how many times you complaint them the problem is not fixable through software updates because front camera have fixed focus.
So i think there is no other option than this.
Case 1: (Professional phone photographers)
Guys if you are carrying a 35mm or 50mm then mount it to the front camera and zooming 1.5x is the solution for shooting 4:3 aspect ratios and only 1.2x zoom for 9:16 or higher aspect ratios.
+ Get lot of blur or shallow depth of field.
+ Can use Canon or Nikon lenses to achieve high end quality. Plus features if your lens have OIS, UV protection etc.
- Weight is a problem.
- Zooming 1.5x makes photo to loose its quality a little bit (especially in nights).
Case 2: (Cheap solution)
This is an inexpensive solution, get yourself a wide angle lens for under 200 rupees for indians and under 2 US dollars.
Buy that 3 in one lens and use the wide angle and zoom 1.2x for 4:3 aspect ratio and 1.1x for 9:16 or higher aspect ratios.
+ Very Cheap
+ Light Weight
+ Less zoom means lesser quality reduction
- No quality lenses are used, little bit lesser color reproduction.
Buy anywhere online by typing 3 in 1 lenses for phone.
Hope this would help you out, if helps don't say thanks but help me find a solution to record 1080p 240 fps video with zooming (stock camera doesn't allow zooming in that setting)
Filmic pro is not working for slow motion .
Moment pro camera doesn't work for slow motion.
Google Camera doesn't record slow motion.
Suggest me a way to do this.
Thank you for all the patience.

Why you need to zoom ? Just take video at 240fps then crop, you will archive same quality because there is no optical zoom in our device, it only uses digital zoom even in photo mode (i gave you solution) ,give a thumb up
Did you like the video quality ?? Do u think our phone beat the midrange smartphones??
Thank you for the suggestion but while cropping as you told, the cornors of the video will have too much distortion which can be resolved by digital zooming a little bit.
And the answer to your question is, This LG G8x beats all the midrange smartphones and i have seen results better than iphone 11 (believe me).
It also beats Oneplus´s all flagships with its Camera capabilities.
Its DXOmark Score is 99, the highest score for a smartphone is 130.

did you posted 2 time about the fix on xda i thought, replay didnt saved and replayed again in your another xda thread:laugh:
can it beat oneplus 7 pro in tearms of camer perfomance ?
Easily beats Oneplus 7 pro in both photo and video modes.
Comparatively Oneplus always makes it pictures over saturated which is ugly i feel. But LG G8x prefers natural tone for skin, good HDR and coming to indoor photography G8x is a killer. Very least noise with the 12Mp sensor and never use that Ultra Wide angle 13Mp in low light or indoor (Too much Noise)

why you actualy need to zoom ,just crope the video after recording done ,using a video editor.
our device didn't have an optical zoom even in photo mode if we zoom 8x it just uses its digital zoom.
you just click a pic at 8x and same pic at 1x then you crop the 1x pic to 8x then compare 8x pic vs croped pic. result will be same:fingers-crossed:
give me a like, i gave you a solution with best explanation
I appreciate your idea but actually thing is when you film it with no zoom and crop it later, same results i agree. But you won't get the flexibility of knowing what exactly you ate shooting, you can't see the full sized video as a reference while shooting.
1) You barely see the depth.
2) Hard to manage White balance and Exposure.
I do need some other working apps that would support this phone zooming while filming at 1080p 240fps.
Tried many of the popular apps
Google Camera, Filmic Pro, Moment pro camera, Proshot, Hedge camera 2, (MiUi 11 Camera, Oneplus Camera- Stock).
