How did I live without this app? Seriously, it turns my sluggish-but-nice 1088p Spectrum video camera into a snazzy, nearly instant autofocus machine of win. WIN.
Basically, the stock app SUCKS times infinity when you want to change focus within one video; it generally likes to find it's "sweet spot" somewhere totally not where you'd like and doesn't really want to relocate autofocus, especially going far-to-near. Actually, the stock camcorder app won't focus on anything remotely considered macro (lettering on the laptop a good 15 inches away, for example).
LGCamera Pro completely destroys, destroys, the stock app. It makes the stock app look like a Ford Pinto in the middle of a monster truck rally. I can now focus almost instantaneously at whatever I like within the same video recording. I can even focus on things easily as near at 2 inches from my phone. It's GOOD.
If anyone is interested, I can post video comparisons, but seriously, trust me. If A+ autofocusing alone doesn't lure you in, the copious amount of camcorder settings will.
*Please note, LGCamera will make your videos look like SHITTTTTTTT if you do not have the correct settings setup; you're going to need to change most of the video defaults; If anyone wants to know the settings to use, just ask me.
