Nokia will provide Smart Lens (which allows us to play manual settings) for Windows Phone

btw, I was about thinking to get this beast again but I do realized that until now Nokia didn't bother to fix the high ISO/banding issue as I wanted since I bought this phone.. its high ISO is highly unusable during the night and I don't like it!!

808 PureView or Phase 1 has dedicated imaging processor, for this Windows Phone might not be able to support it yet during Lumia 920, besides Windows Phone still has no support for higher end processor, there's quite a lot of limitation of Windows Phone which they're slowly improving now. Moreover, I think it doesn't support the high megapixel of 808 PureView and other features that are available on the 808 PureView or Symbian OS itself. Due to the OS belongs to MS, Nokia can't make any modifications, so they have to rely on MS and it's up to MS whether they want to incorporate it into their OS and if they do, most likely it will not be specially for Nokia, which means others can have this features as well.

For camera phone with shutter speed control, I'm not sure about those "stock" camera software, but for 3rd party, yes. One of is the Nokia N900 with FCam mod. We can control the shutter speed and set to 1 second to play with slow shutter effects, we can even force the ISO to 6400.

808 PureView tends to use slower shutter speed so the result is usually blur due to shake or movement. Depends on what you shoot often, for me, I prefer to get the shot than get many blurry images. It makes the camera much more usable for most people, most of the time, we take the camera phone out we wanna take the shot immediately/quickly to capture the moment, not spending time to mess with the settings.
A good example would be my S3 vs 808, it's easier to take photo with the S3 even with no dedicated shutter button and taking the photo with one hand in lowlight, it gives higher hit rate with less blurred photo without messing with the settings at all. This is also why iPhone camera is preferred by many.
Lumia 920 have optical stabilizer, but the auto mode seems to favor slower shutter speed because it have this optical stabilizer, so... taking moving subjects is a no-no, e.g. taking your kids. Just look at test results or comparison reviews of L920 compared with competition, when it comes to moving subject, it fails terribly, but for those who loves to capture foods, toys, will love it.
Nokia needs to realize that it's more important to capture the moment than keep getting fail images; when taking foods, toys, usually these are not "action" moments, means the user can take their time to adjust the settings before shoot, or change the mode to "Food" (or some creative mode which utilizes the slow shutter speed, e.g. Night Mode in common camera modes). For "action" moments, usually you want to quickly capture the moment, you take the camera out and you want to capture immediately. (e.g. your kids doing something cute, your pet doing something cute, etc).

This oso 1 of the factor that limits the proper PV to be ported to WP. Well said But what to do, they signed up with MS... fated d..

I see, at least now im certain that we dont get this priority setting with stock camera software most often. 2.7 sec is stil alot to play for those who knows about photography But i do understand the flexibility of adjusting the shutter speed directly, rather than getting approx figures by relying on ISO. Such a pity, but like Guru Damain has mentioned b4 on this topic... u cant pleased everyone and limitations are there.

Loud and clear bro! Indeed this will ruin the photos in most of the fast moving & low light scene (That is why, myself 99% use pureview, 1% auto for others use my phone to taking shots for me ). and the success rate for 808 is low (for single shot pass). 808 nid patience and time in order to get the best image out of the it. To overcome slow shutter, Im now learning to get steady on 1/30, sometimes in 1/8-10 on food shots, stil some slight blur, but at least better now. Practice practice

Side note: Im actually quite OK with some low light shots up to ISO 800 sometimes, if for facebook, printouts, but DEFINITELY not for ZOOMING (ala attention to detail purposes )

For ISO and Noise; depends on each user, those that capture human moving subject or moments, it's more important to capture the moment than blur shot. Beside, when resize to smaller resolution, it will not be so bad, usually people post to Facebook under mobile uploads, it's already resize to small resolution, moreover most people view it in their phones, it will usually look OK or good, not to mention photos do look better on those modern phone display... and viewing in small size/screen.

Anyway, 808 PureView is in a totally different league, if one appreciate it's 38MP it offers, and the PureView mode which offers true lossess zoom which gives equally good feature like an optical zoom with constant aperture. When I use 3MP PureView Mode and zoom to the fullest, it can maintain somewhat similar shutter speed, and with true lossess zoom, you get great amazing details even zoom to the fullest. On other phone cameras, you will see BIG difference when compared....

Below is a simple comparison I done previously, just look at how great is 808PV even when using it's MAXIMUM 3MP PureView Mode zoom and somemore at 100% CROP.... with S3, it looks like poor CCTV footage screen capture.

That is the true intention on the Pureview tech. Easy sharing great photos with compact file size! We leave 38Mp to the professional to deal with . haha

I still remember this original post from you... totally no comparison bro! the lossless zoom already take a huge lead on detail, not yet compare pureview pixel sampling tech yet.

Nowadays less seeing you post pic! Hope to see some soon

My pics mostly private family/kids photo ma, hehe

Previously was testing or trying out the 38MP and PureView Lossless Zoom, so got take more. There's always shifu aspire with all his amazing photos~

Ic ic . but stil hopefully can have more 808 users to join sharing ma~some ordinary stuff or food (got member complain on food pics coz got puasa...betahan d temptations...lolz) Sifu aspire 38mp gallery will crash browser...haha

At least glad to know u trigger happy with 808

The quality of the photos are so good!! my dad gonna love this.

How is the PV808 holding up as everyday smartphone? Like browsing or wechat, whatsapp those.

What is the price of AP set now? o.O

Pics I took recently using 808PV hehe:






All uploaded directly to Flickr without any editing. BTW, I noticed it's not easy to focus on small stuff without zooming. That flower pic, I had to zoomed a bit....so it's not using the full sensor size.

Camera is the best to date, but it is not easy to use compared to compact P & S, and also refer my earlier discussion with andy214, by default 808 is on lower side on shutter speed, meaning shaky & blury shots is going to happen, that you might nid some skill to overcome at first...

Minus some random crash, hang, 2days not a problem. But still depends on individual usage.

Browsing not reli that recommended, nid to do alot of scrolling and zooming due to low res screen. Recommend Opera mobile for better browsing experience.

Wechat 4.2.0. is usable, but not that great, especially on typing, it will revert to fp1 keyboard...also for Chinese user, u have to set your keyboard to chinese input before starting Wechat, or else it will crash when you start to type.

Whatsapp no frills though

Erm.. i duno about the pricing though, mayb u can look into garage sales~

Dont worry, it is normal, because the default distance is 15cm compared to 10cm on N8, dont be afriad to use the lossless zoom when you nid to do serious macro shots!

Keep up!

Sounds nice! My dad isn't much of a texter but he is a camera fanatic lol. So I think I should ask him to look into this phone.

Thanks for the info.

DO not have to get AP set. I got mine for RM1040 Just ard 1 month ago.
Becazo once offered RM999, but with postage, it will be around RM1020++.

Seller from lelong.
Opps. I free promote his shop here. Got commision? haha . jkg.

So far I very satisfy.Never has auto restart.

I use it for whatsapp. we chat, sms, call, WAZE (Very nice. I tot it will be buggy and LAGGY at first, but it is ok for me, just that it doesn't has the EPIC graphic as you can find in abv avg android and apple), and of course photography.

Note that symbian gaming experience is kinda .... Incomparable with android and apple ya.

Once i got it, i upgraded to belle sp2 i guess. The latest punya. Till now i am satisfactory customer.

Go for ori set...i bought mine at shah alam rm1100..at garage sale go find seller name aaronac.he sell 999 avaxx set...im not promote him but he sell cheapest pv808 as far as i know..this phone hard to find..

Make it short its the best is the camera, clearblack display and fm transmitter. The rest is average.

and their designs are smart too! Nokia never disappoints me in terms of design (but my friends hated it, owh well )

and I prefer to hold this phone than my L920, its pretty bold and sturdy, classy finishing by them Finnish!

Seems like a solid device to use. Will look into it in my nearest phone stores. Thanks for info. And the price is cheap too! I'm expecting something like RM1700-1800. lol
