This is a good example of HDR In action. The mode has made a good job of it, with a natural look, but the flats and Big Ben could have been brought out more Click here for the full res image

Here I'm really pushing the Moto G's HDR to the limits. Contrast has taken a hit, but crucially we're still left with a clear, reasonably natural-looking image Click here for the full res image
The f/2.0 lens is capable of some minor shallow depth of field effects. Nothing applause-worthy, but great for a low-end phone Click here for the full res image
The impressive thing here is not the detail captured, which isn't that amazing, but the rather lovely colour reproduction, including in the shadow areas Click here for the full res image
This shot is a good test of contrast and colour reproduction, and the Moto G does pretty well. Nice vivid reds, plenty of contrast Click here for the full res image

The Moto G's focusing and metering system means it's easy to make photos with overexposed areas, like the building to the right Click here for the full res image
Here the exposure is a bit off, making the right hand-side of the image quite washed-out Click here for the full res image
At pixel level there's a fair bit of noise, but it's otherwise a nice, sharp shot Click here for the full res image
With HDR applied this scene looks great, demonstrating what the mode is for Click here for the full res image
Without HDR applied, we see how the metering style of the Moto G means you really need to know what you're doing. The sky is massively overexposed Click here for the full res image
HDR once again proving its worth. Don't zoom in too much and you could believe this was taken with a 'proper' camera Click here for the full res image
At night the Moto G holds onto its colours pretty well Click here for the full res image
In very low light conditions, the Moto G still maintains nice colours. But it doesn't have super low light sensitivity to make your shots clear Click here for the full res image

A lack of burst mode meant I missed the pigeon as it flew off. But the Moto G is still offers respectable speed Click here for the full res image
With super-fine high contrast photos you see some purple chroma noise, but detail is much better than in the old model Click here for the full res image
The Moto G HDR modes seems to apply some anti-ghosting processing. This is an HDR shot, but there's no dual exposure of the pigeon in flight Click here for the full res image
It's no wonder there's an 'auto HDR' mode in the Moto G. Here by focusing on the foreground, the sky is massively overexposed. We'd really like to see the phone offer separate focus and exposure points Click here for the full res image
