bro, based on my experience with N8 about 1 year and half is that N8 is very easy to use. You have like what, ISO / EV / WB / Contrast just like that and you are ready to shoot with any angles that you wanted. It will produce one of the most finest quality comparing to any camera phone (except 808) without a problem, inshaAllah! smile.gif

but with 808 PV, it is a bit pain on the ass to snap out pix with it plus the annoying ISO, banding issue that was unfixed until now. with 808 PV, you cannot pull out angle much, it will produce weird kind of picture (due to its 26mm wide angle which I think was too wide, should have stayed with 28mm instead). but if someone was keen with photography, I think they would truly love how 808 PV works with just the correct settings.

It is hardware. not that I am against wider angle but at least they could have tweak it to make it a little bit more natural pictures rather than producing a balloon/oval/stretched pictures shakehead.gif shakehead.gif shakehead.gif

No mang. Like i said, i have both phones. There is nothing where the N8 beats the 808.

Night time the lumia 920 should win though

True but I still love the shutter speed/ISO setting and angle that N8 produced, 808 just sometimes not that pleasing in low light handling (no, not about the quality, how the phone handles the low light)

banding issues and ISO is my biggest problem here, anything else 808 is just superb but like I said, anyone can use N8 but not anyone can use 808.. None of my friends can't handle 808 very well even I CAN'T HANDLE IT tongue.gif tongue.gif

close up. Since i own both close up are more challenging on 808 pureview

When snapping pictures with weird angle (or killer angle, at least I named it that way)
N8 clearly wins because of its 28mm, even Galaxy S II can't do a killer angle like N8 could do!

yep, close-up also but I like how the 808 control mechanism over macro shots,
just touch and focus, but don't take at any weird angle, if you still wanted that then zoom a bit so the picture that you want to snap doesn't look so stretchy to the edge (26mm to wide and fish-eyed)

The benefit n8 over 808 is because I can control how the phone focus thats how I take amazing shots on 808 u cant it keep auto focus.  Dont believe me try take a dragonfly like my pic with your 808 and u will understand

sifu, you snap on super-macro object no wonder lah very2 hard haha sweat.gif

808 pureview win in more detail, but nokia camera got 1 1 weakness, when light explore level in room very bad, blur!

snapping in a room is a no go for nokia.. somehow i like Iphone white balance more (snapping in room level of course) but I do recall some of nokia phones snap well in those conditions also and produced less flare..

I think it was N82 thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif

they fixed that issue on the Nokia Lumia 920. Try it to shock your life. ISO 100 in low light look like day

Guys still can get Nokia preview 808? Worth it ka?

L1020 lot worth, more flexible control almost could shoot at any lighting conditions. But if we were talking about the price, I'd say buying 808PV would never be a regret icon_rolleyes.gif
