Top LG G5 Camera Features
1. Dual Lens, Dual Camera
Perhaps the dual main camera setup on the back is the biggest feature of the phone. The setup is composed of a standard angle and an ultra wide. We found the latter very useful in landscape photography and group shots while the main 16MP is top notch in many areas.
2. Manual controls and modes
The flexibility of providing manual controls on the LG G5 compares to no other phones available on the market aside from the V10. We find joy in being able to command white balance, shutter speed, and other preset modes.
3. Real Selfie “expert”
If there are a few brands that have mastered selfie in mobile phones, LG is surely one of them. Taking selfie photos is snappy and well complimented by extra gesture or voice controls and hardware shortcuts.
4. Camera grip and modules
The semi-modular design of the LG G5 means you can remove the battery or replace the chin with a dedicated camera grip or Cam Plus model. Not only that, the CamPlus module adds extra controls and better grip on top of an already great setup.
5. Speed and Power
LG is one of the brands that tops the chart in terms of quality and accuracy in mobile camera phones. Its 16MP main camera paired ultra wide-angle angle 8MP cam, powerful processor, and improved camera technologies make the LG G5 a reliable and one of the fastest shooters.
The G5 is more than just a camera phone, it’s also a compelling high-end Android device that does everything you need on a smartphone. These top 5 features are just some of the reasons why the LG G5 is a phone worth checking out.
