LG G3 Hands-On and First Look: Camera and Video

A special mention has to be made about the G3's 13MP OIS+ laser camera. While the device's resolution and sensor size remian the same as that on the G2, LG claims that this time around the new handset has been fitted with improved light sensitivity features.

But heading deeper into the laser assisted camera of the G3, the laser-assisted focus enables the G3 to take pictures much faster than other phones in the same range. You will notice how the camera app opens faster than expected (faster than the Samsung Galaxy S5, at least).

And while you might think that this is possible due to the RAM inside the device, let us tell you that the actual work here is done by cone-shaped laser thats emitted to allow the G3's autofocus to quickly establish and deduce distances between itself and the frame.

We are looking to find more on the camera of the device, although it has to be mentioned that there is also the option of 3840x2160 UHD video capture. It also has the ability to produce slow-motion video which can also be a treat.
