I have searched and cant find this previously mentioned.
When recording video every minute or so the camera is re-focusing which looks really crap when watching it back as its constantly going blurry then coming back into focus. (very visible on a large TV)- is there a way to stop it doing this? e.g. turn auto focus off? If not i will send it back and use my old N8 till something better comes along.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

Is there any known way to disable autofocus in 'camcorder' mode & force it to focus to 'infinity' instead?
I was chasing a funnel cloud that was developing into a real tornado on Friday evening, but the moment I got off the freeway & was in traffic, the autofocus went berserk due to brake lights, and the best part of the video ended up being almost unwatchable because the autofocus kept screwing it up.
Also, are all the video modes 30fps, or is there any way to force 720p60, 540p60, or 480p60? I'm 99% sure the hardware is physically *capable* of it, even if the stupid camera app itself was dumbed down.
Finally, is there any camcorder app that can keep running in the background, so I can pull up a radar app like PYKL3 without terminating the video recording?

good question. i am actually looking for a solution to my problem. i can't manually focus the camera. it seems like the autofocus is stuck and wouldn't want to focus on close up objects. i'm running this rom by the way
Anyone have problems in low light/not out outdoors with camera on note 2? If i go all the way back to stock 4.1.1 rom with that camera it is much brighter. Once I upgrade or flash any other rom the camera becomes unrealistically dark. Anyone experience this or have a fix for it? I have tried several cameras they are all the same. Full wipes. It seems to be some kind of software issue or something but I can't seem to figure out a fix. I can brighten things up with a low light setting...but that is also taken out in the newer cameras. It is especially bad in videos. Any insight would be great.
Hi Guys,
I am getting poor auto focus when using stock camera on v20e in 1080P 60 FPS mode when zooming anything above 1X, When i switch back to 30 FPS auto focus working well.
Anybody else facing this issue and is there any solution.
I got a warranty replacement and I'm finding the camera cannot focus at distance. Up to 1 foot it focuses great, but anything farther is a mess. Even with manual focus at infinity it doesn't work.
Sad quality control?
What about with video ?
Give the lens a clean. Take a good look at it and see whether some dust got trapped on the inside. Give it a tap and see if it moves.
With the camera app closed and not in memory try clearing the camera app cache and restarting. If that does nothing try clearing the camera data too.

Same thing with video. I had read about clearing cache/data, so I tried that as well. Even tried factory reset. It seems this camera just cannot set focus at infinity. Used several other camera apps with the same result.
Same here .. Got a warranty replacement for my bricked G4 (boot loop failure) and the new phone has serious camera focus issues. Will not focus on infinity and even at short distances has grainy unfocused pics intermittently. My old G4 camera was amazing even at infinity on max 4.0 zoom super clear pics. This one not even close. Video is the same. Very disappointed. Maybe I need a new Camera module? Any advice would be helpful.
I feel like I need to see what sprint ir LG can find out but sure they will say it works fine but I know better. Arrg!
Hi there,
Did you get a solution for this problem? I have noticed the same situation, focus for close objects, macro, works amazing, but for far objects it's out of focus, I notices for stock and 3rd party apps. I've tried Google camera, Stock camera, LG G5 camera, LG V10 camera, Pro Shot, Camera FV-5, Open camera, this issue also happens for video. I start to suspect that issue it's hardware.
Any suggestions?
