In the process of prepping up our full review for the LG G3, its time to make a pitstop in the optics department. When we reviewed their flagship from last year, we praised the G2 as having the best all-around camera for Android. This year they retained the megapixel size w/ a f/2.4 13MP but made sure to beef it up in other areas. You now have laser-assisted autofocus along w/ optical image stabilization+, and 4K video as well. Time to see how well the G3’s camera performs in real-world conditions. Let’s go!
The G3 uses infrared lasers to measure how far or close the subject is in your photos. It does all of this in 276 milliseconds.While the laser-guided auto-focus sounds great on paper or from a scientific perspective, but its just as fast the AF on the M8. Not to say its bad or anything. Its just nothing vastly special. It works great though.
The overall performance of the G3’s 13MP shooter is as quite superb. In regards to image quality, it performs just as well as Galaxy S5 and can handle low-light a bit than the ISOCELL lens on the S5 as well. Bright + great accuracy of colors, ideal sharpness, and so forth. This is easily the best Android camera on the market right now – in regards to pure performance. Better than than the M8 and the S5 in my opinion. LG is making all of the right moves coming from the G2 and now to thew G3. So consider this the start of our G3 coverage.
