[Q] Does the G4 shoot 1080p at 60 fps? - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having a very difficult time trying to find out if the rear camera on the G4 can indeed shoot 1080p video at 60 fps? Some reviews on YouTube say that it can, while some others say that it can't. I'm wondering if maybe the preview units LG sent out to testers can't do it and maybe the actual retail units can? Could anyone with a retail unit and not one of the preview units please see if the G4 can actually shoot 1080p videos at 60 fps?

No at this moment

Most of the specs I read say [email protected] and [email protected] Hope that's not a typo because is was hoping for 60fps

In this article http://www.tmonews.com/2015/05/lg-g4-review/ it says:
"For this who like to shoot video, the G4 can shoot in resolutions up to 4k (at 30fps). If you want a higher frame rate for a smoother video, you can drop it down to Full HD 1080p and shoot at 60fps. It also has optical stabilization to minimize any camera movements."
Can't guarantee it's accurate but hope so.

Most of the specs say 1080p at 60 fps, but so far no videos actually show it. I have seen 1 video (and only 1 video) claim to be @ 60fps but there is no proof at all it was even shot with a G4. I played with a demo unit at a store yesterday and the unit I used definitely didn't shoot at 60 fps.

I played with the AT&T version at the store and it had 1080p/60fps as an option.

Hmm interesting. I wonder if it's only an option on certain carriers right now? Do you remember what exactly what the menu options were? Was it just UHD, FHD, HD, and Slow-Mo or was there another option?

The LG G2 and G3 both have [email protected] so we can assume the G4 does as well. It needs a lot of light to shoot at 60fps otherwise the LG automatically lowers the frame rate. Not sure of the technical reasons but with my G2 I need to be outdoors on a sunny day to get 60fps. I tried last night inside in a dim room and it only recorded at 15fps even though I was on the 60fps setting. Still awaiting my g4 but it's the first thing I'm going to try.

I was finally able to find a video claiming 60fps!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6POQK_3nzw
That's a good start, although I still find it odd that this is the only LG G4 1080 60 fps video that I've seen (aside from 1 other random video that had no info at all). Especially considering how many of these they sent to youtubers to review. I'd still really like to see a screen shot of the menu actually showing the option.

I just took a short test video on my G4 and used MediaInfo software to analyse the file. it was only 30fps. I tried at both 4K and 1080p. There's no option anywhere in the camera app to choose framerate.

I can confirm that both UHD and FHD produce 30fps videos. Or that is what vlc shows when playing them back on PC.

I can confirm that the G4 can't record in 60 fps.
I annilayzed with mediainfo.

Yea, their specs are wrong. Not for the first time.

G3 can record at 60fps via XCAM, future updates might bring 60fps but if not then probably i hope XCAM will come to G4, that would unlock all hidden potential

Just like the g3 not it can't

CM9 - changing the bitrate of the video camera

I believe this is set in Media_profiles.XML
Is it safe to change the 1080p bitrate? How do you do so properly?

The default for h264 1080p is 12000000 (12Mbps). From a quick search it looks like the bitrate for the iPhone is 25Mbps.
Two values need to be changed:
Bitrate for 1080p in camera 0 section and the max bitrate of the h264 codec lower down in the file.
Setting it to 25 crashes the camera. 20 works and is confirmed to be working when checking video properties in Windows.
The quality improvement is questionable. Still looks like **** compared to iPhone 1080p samples I saw on YouTube.
The 1080p videos on the Nitro almost look like they're interlaced! Anyone else notice this?
More importantly we need to fix the spastic focus asap!

i render my work related video to h264 weekly. a 25mbs bitrate isn't noticeable on streaming video and is overkill. the 1080p vid samples that came preinstalled on my nitro were mind-blowing quality. i've also streamed youtube hd on mine and it looked stellar. i've also streamed youtube hd and it looked like hammered ****.

I've never attempted to take a video before on my phone. Right now my camera app won't even open, haha. I'll let you know when I can manage to make it work...

I just noticed that when selecting 1080p, it creates videos with the wrong resolution - 1920x1088 (instead of 1920x1080). Perhaps there is some wonky scaling going on in the vertical resolution which is what is causing that banding effect.
And yes, I am also seeing the same "interlacing" effect in videos I take with my phone. The effect does not appear at 720p or 480p.
The framerate is so abysmal at 1080p, I don't know why I'd ever use it anyway. 720p seems pretty good though.

I've seen the 1088 vertical resolution on other phones, doubt that's the problem. Maybe someone who knows a lot more what's going on can chime in.
Shouldn't both 720p and 1080p be 30fps when it comes to framerate?

Should be, yes, but I was only getting under 10fps in my test videos. I dunno if I'm doing something wrong.
Yes that's definitely not normal. Check that you're actually set to video and not "time lapse" which is an option on the camcorder.

Video quality

Your friends are never going to believe what you did. The only way to prove it to them is with that video you took. Rate this thread to express how videos shot on the OnePlus 3 come out. A higher rating indicates that videos are smooth (and not choppy) and that auto-focus works very well, and that the camera adjusts quickly to different lighting conditions while recording.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Video quality is okay, nothing great. The stabilization could be better. I also don't like that there is no 1080p/60 option.

You got any sample? And i think none of the latest flagships support 1080p60fps, dont know why
Techradar said you can record 1080p 60fps with other camera app, like open camera.
Anyone can test it?
Thanks

I gave open camera a shot and set it to 60fps, it doesn't actually do it, sadly enough. I've tried it both at the default bitrate (~20) and forced it to 5 mbit, both on the old api and the new camera2 api, nothing.
I'm not entirely certain what OP's reasoning behind no 60fps recording is anyway, I hope they'll add it in an update since AFAIK there's no hardware limitations which wouldn't allow it.

Htc 10, lg g5, htc 10, nexus 6p, xiaomi mi 5, none of these offer 60fps. Actually i think of all recent flagships only s7 is capable, i dont know reasons behind this decision of oems
I have an old hardware Zuk Z1 (snapdragon 801, same hardware as oneplus one) and it CAN record great quality 1080p 60fps.
With my Zuk I have low cost phone with great battery, very good responsive, customizable software, and a video resolution I CAN'T GET WITH NEW 2016 FLAGSHIPS.
incomprehensible.
Specially because that is the only reason I don't renew my phone.
But I would be happy to buy oneplus 3 of they add full HD 60fps non slowmotion video recording.
Hope they add it.

Yeah the software needs improvement and the noise cancellation is way too aggressive, I was only able to bump up the audio for the background noise and not disable the noise cancelation. Of course I did that after taking the video

There is temp fix for that issue
what iv understood that someone said, that these mobile phone processors cant go constant 60fps video like gopro can. I had it on oneplus1 with Sultan-ROM and fps seemed to fluctuate somehwere between 59fps and 60fps (bsplayer with the i in the upper right corner, it had FPS counter) and i think i saw some small stuttering sometimes.. it looked almost like it were running too fast, hard to compare(and i dont have gopro) but it would be really cool to have it do like gopro but its probably gonna need own chip to make video.. (im not an expert on this matter, just what iv noticed) in the end i just recorded 4k so my daughter can enjoy 4k videos when he's all grown up. 4k downscaled into 1080p is _REALLY_ sharp compared to normal 1080p mode where native 1080p almost looked like youtube quality at 1080p and 4k downscaled to 1080p looked like ripped BR-movie with 11Gb/2hrs .. really crisp.

After 3.2.2?
Is the video recording quality/audio when recording fixed after the 3.2.2 update? Planning on buying this phone over the upcoming note7/s7 edge. I like the touchwiz interface but not the Samsung bloatware apps like their keyboard/gear manager etc..
I shoot alot of 1080p video I don't think I will ever shoot videos at 4K
For 1080p is the OP3 video quality good enough?

Pixel XL Video Recording

So with the announcement out of the way, a DXO Mark assessment complete and all the specs published I'm left wondering about video recording. The 6P recorded in 4K at 30FPS, 1080P at 30FPS and Slow Motion at 120FPS and 240FPS and without OIS it was shaky as hell. Both GSM Arena and the DXO Mark list 1080p 30/60/120FPS for the Pixels which piqued my interest.
Will we be getting 60FPS 1080p?
The image stabilisation on at the demo looked very impressive too and I believe that was at 4K but we'll have to wait and see if it's actually that good...

At long last, if this is available and the stabilisation is as good as they demo'd it'll be a great camcorder.
DXO said there was still Jello effect associated with EIS with videos. I guess we'll have to wait and see what it's truly like.

The only thing why I didn't buy the 6P, because it was pretty stupid they didn't add this when even mid-range phone have them. On the other hand, I would love to see manual controls on the camera, because every flagship should have them and people who likes photography greatly appreciate this.

" I will say the Image stabilization needs some work"
Looks good indeed, because stabilization usually doesn't work on 4K, but still we can't guarantee that the video was edited or manipulated in any way; we should wait for real reviews and camera tests, because I think is the only good thing this phone has.

The only thing why I didn't buy the 6P, because it was pretty stupid they didn't add this when even mid-range phone have them. On the other hand, I would love to see manual controls on the camera, because every flagship should have them and people who likes photography greatly appreciate this.

Phone Arena seem to think that it's one of the first with EIS at 4K, I hope so!

960 fps and 4k 60 fps?

Just saw a video posted by "pocketnow" on LG G7 camera review. At 4:57 mark, he said there were new addition(960 fps slow mo, 4k 60fps) from OTA updates since his original phone review 2 months ago. Is it true cuz i cant find it on web.
Video link- Hmm, seems i need 10 posts. Better PM me if u cant find on YT, or just search on YT and you'll have it.
Saw the video and yeah I can confirm that the phone can shoot 4k at 60 fps with the new OTA update but I just tried recording a slow motion video and it's just at 240 fps and I can't seem to find the 960 fps option.
You mean the video of Jaime Rivera? He doesn't know what he is talking about, the g7 doesn't have 960fps at 720p, just tested and it's 240fps.
I don't even have the 4k 60fps option.

That's because your phone is not on the last Ota update
The reason that the phone can't shoot in 960fps is because there's no dedicated chip for it. For example Samsung uses dedicated fast storage chip to store the footage of the video and then transfer it to the main storage. LG doesn't have that chip plus the sensor only officially supports 240fps 720p but I noticed that it also supports 1080p 240fps .
Why we don't have that option is a mystery.

Damn, so not even a software update can turn it on? That's sad.
Anyone else think that [email protected] is disappointing.. Lots of jello and inaccurate focusing. [email protected] send a more consistent option, tried to upload to you tube with 60 and it looked awful!

Personally I prefer 4k 60fps. From what I recorded it seems stable and I have no problems with it.
Edit: here's a link of what the camera module is capable of: https://www.google.bg/url?sa=t&sour...FjAAegQIAxAB&usg=AOvVaw3vRFp9OMzb9J76fPbULXws

Galaxy A50 has flagship imx 576 sensor

Great to see that Samsung is using High end sensors even in their budget devices.

》Samsung's own Iso cell sensor is used for front camera in Galaxy A50.
Checked using various Information apps like AIDA64, etc. on my Galaxy A50.

Yea this is nothing new really i just wish they would allow us to record 4k videos in the stock camera app.

Sensor, cpu, and storage are all 4k ready. Maybe in a future update

Yea thats what iam saying, its capable of 4k but they limited it.

Honestly, I'd rather have 1080p 60fps then 4k - too huge videos wasting space.

Agree, 60fps is more useful for me than 4K. If the camera had 60fps capability, the slow motion video will be more smooth

No one seemed to post this info about its sensor & I'm the first one to do so, hence the post.
I doubt that they'll enable 4k, though exynos 9610 is capable of doing 4k @120fps.

Iam guessing they wont enable it because a50 is already a good deal and if it gets 4k recording at 60fps or 120fps people will probably not care about the other devices in the A series.

Use OpenCamera and you can use 4K but I think they limited it to have a reason to sell A70

Slow Motion are 120fps
I have a question, why there is no hdr on 25mp? Shooting 25mp on a good lighting condition really gives a sharper and more detailed shot compared to the default 12mp but the only downside is there is no hdr that results in an uglier shot.

Use open camera to shoot 25mp hdr photos

Hey bud, you can use hdr mode @25mp using "Open Camera".
I suggest using default non-hdr mode @25 Mp only in daylight/good light.
12 Mp hdr shots would give better images in lowlight due to pixel binning resulting in higher micron size.
Cheers !
