LG G8s ThinkQ — In-Depth Analysis
The LG G8s ThinkQ packs a 2-lens rear camera system headlined by a 12 primary sensor — the Sony IMX363, which is a well-regarded Sony sensor known for excellent dynamic range and low-light performance. The CMOS sensor size allows for adequate light capture for most shooting conditions.
Beyond the main sensor, the ultrawide (13MP, FOV: 107°) and telephoto (12MP, 2x optical zoom) lenses give you genuine optical versatility. The telephoto lens is particularly valuable for portraits, where optical zoom creates natural background separation without the artifacts of digital crop. The ultrawide lens captures approximately 120° field of view, making it ideal for landscapes, architecture, and group photos in tight spaces.
Video recording supports 4K at 60fps, the sweet spot for high-quality content creation. Optical image stabilization keeps handheld footage smooth, reducing the need for a gimbal in casual shooting scenarios. Stabilization modes include OIS + EIS, and slow-motion capture at 960fps enables creative time-warped content.
Computational photography plays a significant role in the LG G8s ThinkQ's imaging pipeline. Night mode uses Yes to brighten low-light scenes while controlling noise.
