BlackBerry 9630 (Tour) sample video

The BlackBerry 9630 (Tour) camera is identical to the BlackBerry 9530 (Storm) camera if youve read my review of the Storm camera, youve read my review of the Tour camera :)

The Tour takes pretty awesome pictures for a business phone. It lacks the accelerometer present in the Storm, so there is no auto-rotation, but it features a dedicated two-stage camera button, which is missing on most other devices with a similar form factor, like the Nokia E71.

I recently snapped matching shots with the Tour and the excellent Nokia N900. Although the N900 camera wins overall, the Tour camera holds its own judge for yourself.

Video recording with the Tour is nothing to write home about, with a resolution of 480×352 pixel, and a frame rate of about 20 fps. Here is a sample video.
