well that's the reason i ditched my panasonic gf2 and opted to use camera phone instead where i will bring wherever i go and can snap anytime i want.

whenever i buy big camera(m43 and DSLR), it's ended up in my drawer after awhile because it's too big and heavy to carry around.

to be honest, what sold me the most about the phone is sound quality during video recording. it is way better than most m43 and dslr.

i used to own sony nex , the sound quality is very bad, distorted whenever there's bassy sound.

panasonic gf2 is much better than sony nex, can change mic levels etc and no distortion but the sound quality still cannot match the one in pureview.

it is possible to select focus mode in creative mode but i have no idea how to activate it, sometimes there's pop up to select when i accidentally touching something or when i practice to do zoom gesture.

i haven't read the manual so i cannot help on how to activate the pop up

to demonstrate 100% crop.

100% crop




if you're plan to zoom a subject i think the best practice is take the photo in full resolution and crop the subject later on. i've tried to zoom in pureview mode but it's not as sharp as cropped subject above. or maybe my hand is not steady enough.

there are at least 4 focus modes to choose from. i never use n8, so i don't know.

Yes, if camera is main priority then it's worth it.

call nokia store first and if available ask them to reserve for you because for the first batch the stock is very limited.

i use sport scene mode and just click on the camera button so it takes continuous shots. great idea to cancel camera budget because i did the same thing, sold my panasonic gf2 for this camera cum phone. at least i can bring this camera everywhere i go unlike gf2 where i keep it in my drawer most of the time

the speed is not great, not sure exactly how many frames per second.

yes up to 1600

i just select scene sport mode and click away/

Congrats, you missed music and light festival to test the camera though. Is there any accessories for pureview yet in nokia store?

if OS is your main concern then better don't buy it.
to be honest if i don't own another proper OS phone (at least for me), galaxy nexus, i won't buy this phone.

i bought this phone as substitute to my camera and also as a second phone.
