Gorgeous Hawkeberry. Really good. These give me hope. Is that wide angle with manual settings?

Excellent, MD308, thanks. I did take off HDR last night and got a nice photo in near blackness that revealed more than my eye could see. Also did dl that Google camera will check it soon. Thanks.

Thanks a lot mate. No just wide angle in auto mode. HDR was on. The camera is incredible when there is enough light. My previous phone (S7) had faster focus, a very reliable way to open the camera by double pressing the home button and was excellent in low light. V30 makes up with its wide angle camera. I expected it to be much worse considering the tiny sensor pixel size

Hey V30 owners. Anyone mess around with Graphy mode? I think some of you guys on here should be contributing to it if you can. I'd like to know how you like it.

Hey RaRa, thanks for the reminder. I played around with it when I first got my V30, then kind of forgot about that feature.

Honestly, unless I need wide angle, I'm almost always in the Google camera app for my pics so it never comes to mind.

Oh ok cool. Those shots came out great for auto though.

A little late but I also took this shot but with my V20. I'm looking to upgrade, mainly for the camera.

Beautiful sunny day in Boston. Very different color temps on either side of the castle because of the angle of the sun.

At the fair today...

did you mean for them to blur like that. It is kinda neat. If so how did you do it? Or was it a happy accident? srry I'm not a photographer.

I noticed that too. I mean no offense. Lovely pictures. But if you zoom in on anything it is blurred immediately.

Im having the same result.

Given the success is both pictures, I am going with "on purpose".

How to:
Pick a slow shutter speed relative to the motion of the subjects. In this case, maybe 1/20?
Track the subjects with the phone/camera so that the faces are always in the same spot on the screen.
Tap the screen on the face so that the camera knows where it is supposed to be focusing.
Keep panning with the face always in the same spot on the screen before, during, and after taking the photo.
Because the face is always in the same spot on the screen it will be clear while everything else that is moving around on the screen is blurry.

Panning is best done with your elbows pressed into your body and swivel at your hips not your shoulders.

Panning shots are hard to accomplish and you really nailed it man. I've only managed to capture one that was really luck on my V20.

Wow! This is amazing!

Wow! This is amazing!

Thanks. I was really surprised when I went back to look at the photo. I want to do some more panning shots.

Parts of south Boston have a nice contrast between industrial ruggedness and nature/beauty. Here's some walking trails by the water right next to a power station.

Love the wide angle lens!

Very cool update - the Google camera port with it's hdr+ now supports our wide angle lens!!

https://www.xda-developers.com/google-camera-hdr-lg-v30-wide-angle-lens/amp/

As you guys probably know, I'm a huge fan of the Google port. Our lens is awesome but Google produces better photos than LG using what our lens captures. The drawback was always the lack of support for wide angle. Now that's fixed.

FYI
