camera - AT&T LG G3

I have read a lot of reviews online and magazines and is very interested in getting this phone for my wife. She only care for the phone with the best camera. She recently got a S5 but I was thinking getting the G3 for her. Can anyone tell me how much better the camera on this phone compare to the S5 or others. Greatly appreciated.

Can't speak for the S5 but the G3 cam poops all over the M7/M8 cameras.

the s5 is going to have the better camera, but the g3's camera is no slouch, it takes wonderful photos

S5 is the better camera in daylight, indoors and night i'd side with the g3. Main thing I like about the s5 camera is the sensor shoots 16x9 photos at full resolution, while the g3 is 4x3 in 13mp

I have the S5 Active and the LG G3. I think the S5 takes better photos overall. More colors pop out in the Samsung rather than the G3. If she is looking for the best phone with a camera then take a look at either the Samsung Galaxy ZOOM or a Nokia 1020 or 1520.

It's the best camera for daytime photos without a doubt. Night and indoor is another story.

I had the S5 for 3 months and bc i got drunk and went into the ocean to take a piss with my S5 in my pocket, it died of water damage.
i got the G3 and as an avid photographer, i can tell you the S5 not only takes better pictures indoor/outdoor daylight, but also has manual adjustments that very disappointingly, the G3 did not have.
G3 does not have:
- ISO adjustment
- Light balance adjustment
- no shutter sound mute
Others mentioned the overly simplified camera was done on purpose to give all owners an easier camera shooting experience. With that said, with all the options basically being on Auto, it still takes great pictures. I just prefer the S5's more.
P.S. there are camera apps out there in the play store (i.e. A Better Camera)

I just wanted to mention the shutter mute is illegal in some places which is why it's not an option, although there are plenty of mods out there to disable it. and yeah you get more control over the camera if you use an app other than the stock one

It shouldn't be forced enabled just because of some places require the sound to be legal. especially where AT&T reside, i'm sure it's legal everywhere AT&T's network can be found.
imagine a show, concert, funeral, it's nice to have the option you know what i mean?

I completely agree with out, no doubt, however there are places, even stateside, where turning off a shutter sound is illegal, the context is usually stalking, the idea is so you can't conceal the fact you're taking a picture of someone, perhaps in a manner you shouldn't be

you mean like perverts? like upskirts and peeping tom's?

After owning a G2, yes it shoots very well and I was a bit surprised that the G3 did not either match the S5 on mp count or kept OIS.
The biggest difference with the G3 so far comparatively, has been speed and some depth. The speed of the G3 focus is insane and rapid fire picture taking is crazy good.

The screen on the g2 just looks a bit more on the solid and deep color look as compared to the g3. I prefer the screen on the g2 to be honest. Running CloudPro 2 and the camera is just that much better. Battery life kills what i had on the g3 by 2X the life span. G2 owner and happy. Had the s5 and just feel "nasty" when i hold a s5 due to just what they did or didnt pack into the device. The s5 had a great screen but thick bezels and that horrible TW! Camera was great but just cant stand SAMSUNG anymore. G2 has a few advantages over some of the high end phones and thats all I need to hear.

Camera quality

I really like this phone. I'm trying not to compare it to my HTC rezound. I feel like maybe I'm doing something wrong. The camera and picture quality is not as good as the HTC. Maybe in am missing the settings or something. Could someone help me out?

The camera quality has been great for me and i'm using the AOSP camera. If your on touchwiz you can try HDR mode, but i always found the regular picture snapping to be pretty great as well.
I always have poor picture detail on any photo I zoom on. I'm not much of a camera expert though, so there may just be other settings I need to adjust in order to get a better picture for zoomed photos.

I very rarely zoom in, unless i'm using macro mode but in that case i'm practically touching whatever i'm taking a picture of.

I've had my S3 for about 4 months.
I had the SE4GT with Sprint prior.
When I first started using the S3 camera, I noticed the following differences in the pictures taken with the S3 compared to the Samsung Epic 4G Touch (S2) :
- in low light, the pictures were grainy with the S3
- zooming in on a picture already taken with the S3 is less sharp.
- the flash has an over saturating effect on the final image in certain instances. (maybe this can be resolved with a change in setting)
When I first purchased the S3, the above differences were very noticeable. 4 months later, I'm just used to them.
I've read that the 2 cameras are the same.
Maybe the quality issues have to do with Super Amoled vs. Super Amoled Plus on the S2. I'm unsure.
With the above being said, the S3 takes great pictures in the Sunlight. The color and sharpness are really nice.
I use camera zoom fx plus it has neat options here's a sample.
Oh that's my little one in her Halloween costume.

camera quality compared to S2 i9100....

want to buy wife One S, she had S2 i9100 that went swimming, if any of you have used i9100 how is it compared to One S.
gsmarena is no help as its picture comparison tool showed one S and even One X pictures way bad than S2 that im finding hard to digest.:laugh:

May I possibly ask why?
The One S is a far superior phone, in every way imaginable, camera being one of them. The GS2 camera doesn't have burst mode, or videopic or any of those features. Not only on the software side, but the low light performance is also much better than the GS2.
S2 makes a bit sharper photos in daylight, everything else on one s's side S2 is great phone, one s is superior just in speed over S2.
The one S is better in pretty much every single area by a good amount (including day light/bright conditions), with the sense V4+ update, camera quality improved even further too, colours are more natural and photos look even clearer now. The GS 2 1080P video is better for smoothness and light metering though.
Also the camera UI and the way the one S/sense camera works is far better, got a ton of cool features too i.e. slow motion recording.
Okay. Let's get this right: your wife's phone went swimming. So do you REALLY want to buy the same "ancient" phone for her or a nice new one. That is the question
Given the nature of women, she will hump your brains out for getting something new and nice .
Oh and Btw, sense rocks compared to whatever s2 has

In my opinion, the One S is definitely better for all aspects of the camera. My light metering also works as advertised and my video recording is very smooth, even in low-light conditions.
As I said, my friend had a GS2, my camera shots were much better in all aspects. GS2 is a much older phone anyway
i have no idea
Though this is an old thread but I wanted to add that One S/X/XL is using the same CMOS with S2/Note2, yes the exactly same cmos from Samsung. Actually, their colour reproduction and details level is almost same.
However, One S added 28mm, f/2.0 aperture and imagechip which transform the camera superior over S2/Note2(f/2.6) and even beat Galaxy S3 out easily. You got much faster focus speed, wide lens and much better quality at low light.
Outdoor photo is pretty much identical to S2 i9100, it only because gsmarena used old ver of OS/camera(ICS 4.0.3) in review and the quality was really really bad at that time I can recall my memory.

Idea for Higher Resolution Pictures

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.nsystem.resize
I don't know how well this works but I like it. What the app does is basically upscale your photographs up to 12megapixels. I have compared the same picture on my macbook, one with the enhancement and the other without and can notice more detail when zooming in. There's a lot of options and I am not a big techie but it seems that bicubic interpolation is what to use. Photoshop has the effect and it works the same way. Maybe someone, if possible, could find a way to incorporate this into ROMs so that our camera could be better since that is my only complaint about this phone.
The image can only produce what the sensor/lens allows. Software cannot up a MP, that's a hardware thing. Don't fall for the "omg 4 MP camera" saying, the camera on the M8 is no slouch. Megapixels only come into play when your either zooming in or trying to print out a large picture.
If there were pictures from various 8+ MP cameras mixed with the M8, you and anyone else would never know.
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using xda app-developers app
The m8 does take great pictures.... Sometimes in just the right lighting but like richii said, the megapixels are not to blame. The lens and software are what hold this thing back.

I realize that each person is different, but I use my phone to take spontaneous photos and videos of my friends, family and life. If I want a good picture, I'm not taking them with ANY phone (Nokia, HTC, Samsung, etc.) I would use my wife's Nikon D3000 (or to be honest, let her take them, lol).
If the HTC One (M7 & M8) have to the lower MP to take the excellent low-light photos that they do, IMHO it's a fair trade-off. My M7 and now M8 blow away my wife's photos she takes with her S4.
Side note: I think I've used the flash 2 times since I purchased the M7 back in August of 2013. My wife almost always has to use hers.
Wow. My m8 must have faulty camera. My s4 blows my gf m7 and my m8 out of the water in every scenario including low light
I knew this going into this phone though. I bought it for everything but the camera.

I failed to say that my M7/M8 blows away my wife's S4 in regards to low-light photos, and probably color accuracy as well.
You must have a bad one... every "expert" comparison of photos between the two phones that I've seen, the color and clarity of detail (with little light in the shot) on the M8 is distinctly better. If you're viewing the photos on a 50" TV, perhaps that's why, but 99% of my photos are viewed on my phone or by my Facebook friends, which are downsized anyway.
The day I see a professional photographer whip out and use an iPhone or Galaxy S5 to take my family portrait is the day that a Smartphone's camera really matters. Until that day, there is no substitute for a standalone camera when it comes to photo quality.

[Q] Coming from the htc m7

I currently have a m7 and I'm looking for my next new phone. I want to know anyone's cons against the s6 that they're using now. Especially anyone who came from m7/m8 etc. I want to know about camera, battery, performance, any lag with touchwiz, etc. I'm finding it a hard decision between nexus 6, S6, (and i would say m9...but the camera looks pretty awful). I need as much feedback as possible. I just want to know any cons before buying this phone that a rep (Verizon) isn't going to tell me.
I came from a launch day m7 myself, and I've had the s6 for about 2 weeks now. I think it was a solid upgrade, and I have no regrets. My only problems with it are the little annoyances, like the volume warning, and the things that I used to use xposed for, since there's no exposed for the s6 yet (and probably won't be for a while, if at all).
But the screen and camera are amazing. The battery and memory issues haven't bothered me because I haven't noticed them - all I know is that they're better than the m7.
One thing though - for the first time ever I'm using a third party launcher (Nova Prime). I don't really have any issues with touchwiz, and I've actually grown to like it a lot once I threw the flat candy theme on top of it, but the touchwiz launcher is a mess.

This will probably never ever happen... but a sense 7 port, maybe just launcher.... well that would be pretty sweet.
Do you use any 3rd party camera apps such as camera fv-5 ? or do you really like stock app?

Actually, check out this thread and do a search for s6 - I think people have gotten it to work. I haven't tested it - I've been pretty happy with touchwiz (surprisingly).
Same with the camera - haven't found any reason to try another, stock works great and the photos are awesome.

So I played with this phone yesterday at Verizon.... I'm sold. What is battery life compared to m7? I know the battery is slightly larger, but this is samsung and it also has QHD display and super amoled vs m7's htc and lcd 1080p display.
The battery life is my main gripe about the S6.. I bought and returned my LG G4 for the S6 and the Samsung is built much better yet the G4 got full day battery life. I charge my S6 about twice a day.
Also, the camera is definitely subpar on the S6 in comparison to the LG G4, especially in low lighting. The iPhone performs much better in low light compared to the S6 also. Day time pics are better than iPhone but nowhere near the G4 quality.
Once someone releases a higher capacity battery for the S6, I'd gladly tear mine apart to replace it.
Keep in mind I work for AT&T and I use my phone a LOT throughout the day.. Roughly 20gb /month data usage on my line alone and I don't tether.

Off the charger at 7am and I get the battery 15% warning around noon. Quick charge to 45% during lunch then get the warning again around 5pm.

I own a GS6 after returning my G4. My iPhone 6 is my secondary device and its sitting next to me. I'm giving a legitimate comparison with no bias. You saying the GS6 is better than iPhone in "every way" is ignorance at its best. I'm not a fan boy of either. There are strengths and weaknesses to both. The GS6 camera doesn't come anywhere near the quality of the G4 photos when you put them side by side and view them on the same calibrated monitor. The GS6 struggles with iso levels in low light. The iPhone is better at iso adjustment in low light. That is absolute in my real world usage.
Day light photos on the GS6 are leaps and bounds over the iPhone, however.

Buy a G4 and compare them in real world photos yourself and you'll see what I'm talking about. Photo clarity and color accuracy is noticeably better with the G4.

My (not best) comparison between Note 4, S6 Edge+, LG V10 and S7 Edge camera

I know my photos are not the best to check the quality. I hope they can help you to decide!
If I had time, this night (Spain time) I would like a new low light comparison between V10 and S7 Edge.
IMO, I like the details of V10, but at low light I like S7 Edge.
What's your opinion?

Show more V10 vs S7 in low light/night.
Edit : V10 looks better in low light, no yellow tint and more sharp. But S7e has punchy color, but LG has spectrum color to be more realistic.

Good enough for me. I had my doubts about s7e camera quality but it looks great. Can't wait to get mine. Thanks for sharing
You sure it was always in automatic mode with the V10 ? here it takes darker pics than the S6E+ whereas usually the LG always take brighter pics than the S6E+ in low light.

I know my photos are not the best to check the quality. I hope they can help you to decide!
If I had time, this night (Spain time) I would like a new low light comparison between V10 and S7 Edge.
IMO, I like the details of V10, but at low light I like S7 Edge.
What's your opinion?

No it's not bad. It's just worse that having a sony sensor. You should probably check the threads about isocell vs sony imx in galaxy s6 and note 5 forums. There's a clear difference and let's just say isocell is not the winner... washed out collors, worse clarity, worse low light with puprle fringe on videos and photos at the corners of the frame. I should know, i have an s6e with isocell.

Cool....I'm thinking about going to grab this phone from TMOUS on Friday. Hopefully I get the Sony sensor.
Either way, I'll be happy to be back on Android. I switched to a 6+ and then a 6S+ last summer/fall and I am finally missing Android. Yes there are some things better about IOS but I just feel so limited. Apple not opening it the API really hurts 3rd party app function. The Alarm clock apps along with 3rd party keyboards are horrendous on IOS.

Well when you get it welcome back! I haven't owned an iPhone since the 4 and I see no reason to look back. I enjoy the freedom to brick my phone and do whatever I want for fun. I flashed Android N to my 6P earlier today, and I've been tinkering with my S7E lately. It takes time to get things how you like them plus the journey to perfection is fun.

Exactly.......and I miss that part so much. My wife is sticking with the iPhone because when we switched from the 6 to the 6S, she said she loved how everything on her phone went back to exactly the way she had it. I hated that part. I love starting fresh with a new phone and setting it up all over again.
Plus I have the Jump On Demand and I feel like it's going to waste if I only upgrade once a year to the new iPhone. I'm getting my 3 upgrades a year dammit.

Same here, luckily my wife loves her Nexus 6P and wouldn't give it up for anything but another Nexus

TBH the daylight photos of S7e satisfied me, and it amazed me in no-light condition (the beach photos). Still visible in no-light is mind-blowing.
It's also very very clear that the HDR mode eliminates oil-painting effect and cures the relatively low dynamic range too. All HDR photos I have seen so far are very good, always better than the normal one (feel real, not fake like other HDR photos).
The only thing I care now is the low-light mode. Com'on SS, the low-light mode on S3 and Note 2 was increadible, and you have it on A5 and A7 2016 too, so please give it back to S series.

LOL.....don't get me wrong, my wife still likes Android, she just doesn't care that much. She actually missed her Android when we first switched but I think facetiming with her family made her want to stick with the iPhone.
I will say this though. We have a couple Android tablets along with a couple iPads and I do believe iOS has Android beat when it comes to the tablet interface. Either way, I'm not really a tablet guy anyway. I'd much prefer to be sitting on the couch with my XPS 13 or gaming on my MSI GT72.
