3) 16 MP imaging powerhouse
The Galaxy S5 has a 16MP camera that comes with an LED flash, and Samsung boasts that it has the fastest autofocus around - up to 0.3 seconds. It results in extremely quick focusing with shots seemingly being captured the instant you press the shutter button.
Like the LG G Pro 2, the Galaxy S5 also has post-shot focusing, which Samsung calls Selective Focus. Once you get the hang of it, it works well. Once you focus on a nearby object, the S5 takes two photos - one with the foreground in focus, and the other focused on the background. Press edit, and you're then presented with three options - blur background, make sharper and pan focus - which let you focus on the subject, the background or both at the same time, after you've taken the shot.
The S5 comes with a live HDR mode for both stills and videos, which lets you see what shots and movies look like with HDR on, in real time.
The Galaxy S5 can record slow-motion video at 120fps, in addition to 4K UHD recording.
