Hello everyone, I have an LG G5 running Android N. before when ever I try to shoot in lowlight it usually brighter and you can see the picture. But now it's very dark and you can't make use of it. I try manual mode and try to focus and it show me that ISO 400. I borrow my friend G5 and try to shoot in low light and it's brighter with iso 1600+. My question is that is my g5 got camera problem or camera app problem?? Anyone got the same problem on Android N? My friend phone is still running M.

Hi there.
I have had this phone for a few days now. I must admit, the camera is very very good indeed. I have no complains what so ever with the still images that the camera records... its just the vids...they are way way dark.
I compared the video recording with samsung wave, S 3, note 2... and lg optimus 3d... in all the comparisons, the video turns out to be darker than any one of the ones i tested.
Is there something wrong with my unit??? I tried the few settings video recording option is loaded with, but that's that.
Can someone plz tell me what's wrong here?
because WP never had night mode, simply to nerv users
If you are shooting outdoors I have noticed if you slightly tilt you phone towards the ground it will expose a bit better compared to if you shoot it up facing the sky.
just put your phone on video and move it from facing the sky to the ground and you will see the exposure change.
First of all, sorry for my english, its not my strong but ill do my best. There's no good forums in spanish who can help me.
Question is simple, should i use 23 mpx or 8 mpx for better quality?
I read before that 8 mpx auto is better for low light, but in good lights, or indoor, or rest of situations?
I'll be so grateful for the help or some tips. Thank you so much. :victory:
P/d: im using Camera stock, because i don't know how is the best way to root and i can't prove Cyberian or XZ Camera.
The 8MP will do some post-processing to you like denosie and sharpen. If you only run stock Z5 cam, low light is better to use 8MP and outdoor 23MP.
The reason is Sony didn't real finish the full resolution 20/23MP mode in the old days, so pretty much all guys suggested to use 8MP for indoor/low light. However, up to XP/XZ/XC the 23MP mode is very mature finally and no need to use 8MP again even in low light, in my opinions, but you will need root to replace the stock Z5 cam.

Thank you for answer, i would like to be root but there's so much ways and i dont know what is the best way with the minor risk, can you guide me with links or steps to have the XP/XZ/XC camera?. Anyways, again, thanks for answer :fingers-crossed: .
Hi guys. I am not going to make new post I rather use this one Because my question is camera related.
I used to use LGG4 for a while used to love camera and Manual mode. Now I own Z5C and looks like manual mode is very limited. Is there anyway to adjust shutter speed? Or other settings. I haven't try other camera apps but so far guys I really don't like Z5C camera once you try LG G4 camera with laser focus f1.8... Maybe i need more time to play with it
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!

Hi,
I can see you have already created a thread on this here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/help/wide-angle-camera-focus-t3590660
so I'm going to close this one up

I've seen recently released phones which have a similar setup like the G5 with one normal and another wide angle sensor on the back, such as the Xiaomi A1. And they have the ability to combine the inputs of both sensors to post-process the blurry 'bokeh" portrait mode effect.
Which makes me wonder why this can't be done on the G5/G6? How much modification of the A1 camera app would it take for this to work? I'm pointing out A1 specifically because the camera app has already been ported to other Xiaomi phones.
These other phones don't have a wide angle lens. They use a telephoto one instead which helps create the effect
You probably would not be able to just port over that app. But it might be possible to create the same effect by cropping the wide angle lens back to the same or slightly more than the standard camera. But that probably won't work too well, since you already have half the resolution on the wide angle lens, and you need to cut it down even more to even get close to the other lens' angle
The A1 uses a wide angle as the secondary camera with the primary being a telephoto. But I've seen the wide angle shots and they don't look like they have much of a fisheye effect that the LG G5 has. But I do think with a bit of lens correction this may be doable.
But I don't have the skills for this.
Sorry to diggout this old subject
But I bought a LG G5 recently for 150$, I'm very happy with (apart from ghosting screen effect) and I'm really interested in portrait mode
I'm a java developer (and recently Android), if anyone still interested, I can spend time on it, it would be possible I think
Portrait mode for lg g5 request
Please please develope portrait mode for LG g5 ... And thanks in advance ...
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.
