LG G5 for vlogging first impressions and video tests

LG G5 impresses with an ultra-wide rear camera, strong stabilization, removable battery, microSD support, speed, and video-pause functionality. Compared with Samsung S6, rear video quality is similar; LG microphone sounds better, but Wi-Fi interference causes crackling. Front camera lacks stabilization and close focusing; framing, color, and bottom placement disappoint, while wide-angle footage lacks background blur.

Convenience and wide-angle capability outweigh mirrorless-camera quality, prompting consideration of returning the Sony.
