Exploring an American Ghost Town

I received a preview unit of the new LG G4 smartphone last week, just in time for a workshop I was leading last Wednesday in Bodie. The first photo is an unedited HDR mode photo, the rest went through my usual workflow of making a few minor adjustments in Adobe Lightroom.

These were some of my first photos taken on the phone, so I mainly used Auto and HDR modes. The HDR mode was critical to eliminating blown out skies and evening out the uneven lighting indoors.

Over the following days I started exploring the option to shoot close-ups, work with RAW file output. The RAW output offers increases quality when you have time to post-process it, and a matching JPG for when you don't: http://www.jeffsullivanphotography.com/blog/2015/05/18/new-lg-g4-smartphone-review-raw-file-output/

I have 34 samples in my LG G4 album so far, mostly from the afternoon walking around Bodie: https://plus.google.com/photos/+JeffreySullivan/albums/6150346956545894305

I'll be back out over the next few days, so it'll be fun to see how the camera performs under a variety of conditions.
