Later you shoot "trans"

Time to get one yourself liao; time to retire the N8


Both offers FIXED focus, means you can take photo immediately without autofocus.

Infinity basically means settings the lens to focus at infinity (distant subject).
Hyperfocal is to focus at hyperfocal distance (based on the lens focal range and aperture, then focus at the hyperfocal distance where most will be in focus).

Not very good at explaining this. For DSLR, for infinity focus, usually you can focus at the most distance subject (or infinity) or if the lens have the infinity.
For hyperfocal, it's not that easy as it involves some calculation based on lens focal range and aperture mainly.

Not very good with technical explanation, best if you google it, they have examples and pictures for more clear understanding.
In short, Hyperfocal gives the greatest DOF (with acceptable sharpness), from a certain distant until infinity.
Use infinity when you want max possible sharpness at infinity (usually distant subject and you don't bother about those not far away).

n8 zoom sucks one. i mean indoor.

i know that, just forget

Video recording using PV808

more trans for you

got 3 nice ah moi photo on the hotel lobby board there...others looks like aunty or maybe chimpanzee.

808 i maybe duwan buy first
wait for window 8 phone or iphone 5 release seethe damn nokia drop their price or not.

meanwhile i think i better saving up for nikon first. upgrade my body is better than phone... feel my n8 so pityful just use for 1.8 years then kena sell off.

ok my first "proper" photo spam.

noob editing, adjust a bit of exposure/saturation, and lots of sharpen to bring out the details (not sure if it look natural).


Tian hou gong by Little Ice LYN, on Flickr

Flickr itself will also apply some sharpening to the photos uploaded.

i was impressed that under overcast weather with some sunlight it can capture what's under the shade, can even see the buddhist statue inside the much dimmer lighting hall.


lol yikes sharpen galore...

bigger sensor, more dynamic range

guys, I get creaking sound when recording videos each time I want to focus. Does this normal?? At first macam tak kisah sangat but once you record too much videos, it tends to annoy me

if you watch the video posted by Kimura above you don't hear any creaking sound at all, maybe your unit somehow did not enable the noise cancelation? not that we can manually enable it, maybe software problem...

i briefly tried mine when I got it and didn't hear any creaking noise, gotta try it later.

Added on July 30, 2012, 8:42 pmulwan, tried mine, spammed auto focus be it auto or by touching the area on screen, no audible creaking sound even cranking the volume to max.

well, it seems that mine is faulty but I bet NCC Malaysia got no replacement, right?

i would try reinstalling firmware first. and sadly, yes, it seems that our NCC offer no replacement. chat with them using their online chat, they emphasized that they don't have replacement service, but will repair the faulty phone under warranty.

if you check out nokia discussion forum, there's one malaysian guy with purple tint issue on the display spent a month and issue haven't solve...it'll be a simple solution if Nokia actually just open a new unit and give it to the guy. he did mentioned it was 1U NCC that's giving problem, maybe you want to avoid that branch...

haha thks 4 the notification...gonna avoid NCC 1U after this

ok i read again the thread, the guy did not specifically state that he sent his unit to 1U, but he did went to 1U for some service but it wasn't a good experience either, read more here:

speaking the truth,its very very troublesome for capture a decent low light,close up photo compare to 1x or s3.even after my hard effort(maybe im too noob),it still couldnt match s3 result which is full auto mode.s3 far better in the sharpness n clarity for low light,close up.other than close up,pureview is the best in camera phone,1000 times better than competitors.

While I do agree S3 shoot a nice macro picture (you can get real close without zooming), the details aren't as nice as 808. I have S3 for about a week when buying for my friends, so I've tested it's camera extensively. Initially when reading about best shot etc I am intrigue for S3 but the tests left much to be desired. Its good, until I tested 808.

808 on the other hand gets great details, with nicer background blur. You just need to zoom a little bit.
