Nokia Lumia 630 Dual: Camera and Video

To be perfectly honest, we haven't been expecting anything big from the Lumia 630's camera. But it needs to be said that whatever has been offered with the device in the imaging department, is more than what you can bargain for.

The Lumia 630's camera performance is broad daylight can be tagged quite good. The camera offers good enough sharpness and clarity to the subject, and more so that it needs to be mentioned to that it has been snapped via the device and not anything else that's costs even more. Such is the quality of the camera.

Talking about nighttime and indoor photography, the details in this respect may not seem that big a deal, mainly due to the lack of a flash, but it's still enough to get the job done.

You will notice that the sound increases drastically once you bring the photography indoors. And it's probably for the best if we don't talk about the images that were clicked at night. Even the video quality of the device is not something to be proud about.

However, as always, this new Lumia device has arrived with a host of dedicated camera apps. The app included in the Lumia 630 include Cinemagraph, Creative Studio, and Glam Me -- all meant to add that extra zing to the image that you are currently ready to push out to your Facebook page.

Other camera options include shutter speed and manual focus, apart from quick access to ISO and white balance settings. And as we mentioned before, the missing front camera may be a bad news for many, but most will not even miss it.
