camera macro wont work after update - LG G5 Questions & Answers

I have a sprint lg g5, and after the update the macro from the 16 mpx camera stopped working, also the autofocus since they are the same function. Does anyone has the same problem? My opinion is that it has a faulty camera, but i would like your opinion. Thanks.

Camera Focus issue

Anyone facing camera focus issue on G5? I am using F700S on Noughat.
And no matter how hard i try, I fail to focus using rear camera. Front cam works fine.
please help.
Same issue here. Seemed to occur after the initial nougat update. Sprint variant. Nothing I do seems to fix it. Read elsewhere, that it is highly probable this could be a mass hardware defect. No confirmation OR denial from LG though.
But which one? The main or the wide-angle one?
The main. Wide angle still works flawlessly - as does the front.
Well, I have Nougat and my main camera is working fine, so as the wide angle. Did you tried resetting your phone?

Also by the way, when you get in manual mode, switch to wide angle, can you do manual focus? I can't and I dont know, if it's normal or not...

LG G5 wide angle lens focus?

Hi guys, I tried looking everywhere but I haven't been able to find any info about whether or not the wide angle lens has any focus (autofocus) or even touch focus? Or is it fixed at infinity only, with no focus? Or maybe my camera is broken? For example if I put the main camera close to my leg and focus I can clearly see the hairs, but if I do that with the wide angle it is blurry (however things,far away seem clear). If I touch the screen while in wide angle mode the green focus square briefly appears, such as with the main camera, but it does not focus neither does it make the focusing sound.
Also the front camera has no touch focus or autofocus, right? This is driving me crazy, and would appreciate anu feedback so that I know if I should send my phone back for repairs or not. I heard that some G5 phones are suffering from hardware failures regarding the main camera focus, but I want to know if the wide angle supports focusing in the first place. Thanks guys, I really appreciate it!

LG V30 i need some info..

Hi to all,
This phone look so good. I have OP5 and i want better phone with better camera. I have some questions:
1. Slow motion - is the same 120fps at 720p or it is 240fps at 1080p?
2. Time Lapse​ - can it record at 4K? At which​ speed? ( x6, x10, x36 etc...)
3. Is there a portrait mode?
4. Point zoom - can it be use in time laps?
I see many videos but i really cant find slow motion and time laps.
And if you can chose between wide angle and telephoto x2 what will you chose?
P. S. Did you think the LG V30 have good zoom that doesn't lost so much details when you zoom x2 or x8?
It's 720p @120fps
Time lapse won't be at 4k for any Android
No portrait mode as no telephoto lense.
I will go with wide angle any day as I am into taking pics that can gather larger data ( field of view) and not much into taking pics of people ( telephoto is basically and better used for this)
Thx a lot for answer. Too bad that V30 (multimedia phone) didn't have 240fps.
I have a new question, did V30 have same hardware front face camera like LG G6? Because G6 have very bad front face camera.

Hi I don't have the phone but trying to get as much information about it as possible, as far as I understand the front camera is exactly the same module as the G6, it's basic, and selfie lovers as well as bloggers are supposed to be using the rear camera instead. For front camera performance the HTC U11 as well as the Nokia 8 phones are recommended.

I don't know if it is the "exact" same camera, but every review I've seen says it inferior to most if not all the other flagship phones (S8, note 8, U11, iPhone and so on).
It a bit of a let down, but I don't really use the front camera, so not a big deal to me.

Pixel apk Port on Oreo

Ever since I upgraded my note 8 to Oreo I have not been able to get a working Pixel camera port apk. When I was on Nougat I never had any problems, now I get focusing problems for front camera, blurry portraits for front camera, the camera will crash at times, and even rear shots dont look as good. Anyone out there know of a camera port that works good ?

Wide camera and selfie camera has fixed focus

I got my G8X yesterday. Overall it is a great phone. One thing I noted was only standard camera can do autofocus, while wide and selfie camera doesn't. For example, using selfie camera, if I put the phone at the distance I would normally use, I got a blurry image because it does not focus. You can tap the screen, all you get is adjusting exposure. You dont get focus sound. This is not a deal breaker for me. But just would like to mention to you guys.
