PERSONAL NOTES

The LG-P500h has poor image quality, and is very limited. When there is a lot of light, the images are so-so, and indoors or at night, forget it. Also when shooting a very contrasted subject, the sensor lacks latitude, so you often have either underexposed of overexposed portions in the images. The lens also suffers from many optical problems

Still, having this smartphone is way better than having no camera at all. For what I do, and the image quality I need, this phone is no good at all, but it's always in my pocket... So it'is perfect for scouting, taking notes, store hours, taking behind the scenes photos, and so on...

10 years ago, we used point and shoot cameras, now smartphones are comparable.

CONCLUSION

If you are serious about photography, you know that you need more than one camera. A smarphone is a very good way of always having a camera on you, which is the first tip from the Time Life encyclopedia :-) These cameraphones are perfect for scouting your next shoot.
