BlackBerry Passport Review: Camera

 

BlackBerry has fitted the Passport with a 13MP rear-facing camera with an LED flash, alongside a few extra features like panorama, burst mode and time shift. The LED flash is there to take images at 16:9, 4.3 and the Passport's own 1:1 aspect ratio.

Apart from that, the handset also supports full HD 1080p video. Users will also get 720p video calling from the Passport's 2MP front-facing camera. The phone's touchscreen should help you interact with the camera.

On the business side of things, while the camera isn't as half bad as most think it mght be, it may still not be that big a challenge to other more established names in the market.

For example, users will get a certain kind of intelligent help from the handset as it will notify you on the conditions you're in. Moreover, there's also the HDR mode that will allow you to capture light well in more darker situations.

The phone also offers optical image stabilisation (OIS). And although that's one of those traits you find in almost all the smartphones these days, it does indeed help you get a better image clarity while capturing light to the fullest.

There's also a Story Mode that looks to stick together your pictures and videos for a quick slideshow set to music. But we were blown away by the fact that you can use either the volume keys on the right hand side of the device, or the space bar on the keyboard, to take a picture.
