Why you can trust TechRadar
Much like the device's stills camera, the handset's inbuilt video recording functionality is someway off setting the world alight, with a fixed focus lens meaning more detailed or distant aspects of video content can go by unnoticed or simply inaccessible.
With poor colour management and a hearty amount of motion blur, video captured with the LG Optimus L3 is uninspiring and appears dated. Far from encouraging you to create your own content, the VGA 640 x 480p video recording capabilities at 24 frames-per-second produces footage that fails to excite and prompt further use.
With the lack of an inbuilt flash once again limiting the camera's use as a functional video recorder, settings options offered to you are a minimalist affair, with reducing the image quality and turning the microphone off the only viable options.
