LG Ally Camera

Ok, so today we’ll take a look at another camera, this one is on the Verizon Wireless LG Ally. it’s an Android 2.1 phone with a 3.2MP camera with autofocus and flash. The LG Ally features a nice 3.2” touch screen and a slide-out full QWERTY keyboard with number line to make typing that much easier. It’s not  a bad phone overall, I gave it a 9 out of 10 total score.

Anyway we’re here to take a brief look at the camera itself so let’s just jump into it..
