Because the Optimus 3D uses its two 5MP cameras to form a stereoscopic image, it’s quite interesting to see how much better LG made the photo- and video-taking experience. According to the changelog, HD 3D video is now recorded at 12Mbps, up from around 8Mpbs, and video stabilization has been implemented in both 2D and 3D mode. As well, 3D depth has been increased.

Whereas before if I took a photo of a nearby object it was difficult, in 3D mode, to differentiate it from its background, this is now clearly distinguishable in the new update.
