Nokia Lumia 830: Camera and Video

Let's not forget that the Lumia 830 is still by large a camera smartphone. It has a 10-megapixel resolution, an f/2.2 aperture lens, 1/3.4-inch image sensor and a single LED flash, with PureView branding and built-in Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) feature.

The device has right camera software that actually helps you to take best possible shots. Like the Samsung Galaxy S5 Zoom, there's also OIS feature to reduce blur.

There's an HDR mode as well, which makes images really fantastic. The phone's camera performed really well and delivered some best possible shots. The front-facing camera, though, isn't that brilliant.

The phone's rear-facing camera is capable enough to record 1080p videos without any issues.
