BlackBerry OS 4.5 Screenshots – Part VIII – Camera

I know I already covered the media player and video recorder but I completely forgot about the camera. My bad. The truth is that other than one great new feature most of the changes to the camera are cosmetic. Read below to see what that great new feature is

You now have 1–5x digital zoom. I don’t know if this was in OS 4.3 but you can scroll up and down with the trackball to zoom in and out.

Once you take the picture the screens have changed a little but you more or less have the same options.

There is a nice menu option to switch back and forth between the video camera and the camera. You hit the options to get to the new option. Do you see it?

Yes you saw it correctly. The new OS natively supports GeoTagging with your GPS enabled BlackBerry or Bluetooth puck. I have tried it a few times and it works like a charm with the EXIF data.

I also noticed some color effects and white balance modes I had not seen before. Could be they were there before.

Don’t worry we will continue to cover the rest of OS 4.5
