NOKIA Revealed Whoppin 41 MP Camera Phone

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

LOL! On first look i thought i had misread it as 4.1

Nokia has simply tackled the issue of not being able to fit a zoom lens on a handheld by increasing pixel count.
So even a zoomed section of a 41MP photo has the resolution of a 5m camera..
smart.. but not ingenious.

Nokia is a dead smart phone, until they do something with their cheap OS.

Nokia is a dead smart phone, until they do something with their cheap OS.

They should go in the line of htc and samsung start making android cells thats the only way they can get out windows and android are the only multi user os rest they cant even touch ios or blackbery os

 

[Safriz]

the camera from this phone will be useful for a spy drone

This is the real Nokia.

These things whatever they are:

Can hardly even be classified as Phones these days. If I want a Phone I would buy one of the ones of the above. If I wanted a Smart Phone it is either Sony or iPhone for me.

I am using N8 and iphone 4s and i have to say that 4s is nowhere near N8's resolution. But, to be honest i am a Sony fan and can't wait to get my hands on Sony's first Xperia S with a 12 megapixel cam and the highest pixel density screen. You can say that Retina Display by Apple got owned. Nokia on the other hand is doing well with it's Windows venture, don't understand why they are still sticking to Symbian

What about the lens? 41 MP is indeed impressive.

Also check those tags by Sony that is simply amazing concept. All you have to do is touch your cell to these tags and your cell's profile will be changed. Soon others will start copying too, But Sony will remain the pioneer.

If you think that's great, then you have to try PSP Vita

OK, plz give me an advice, at the beginning of March, i am going to buy a new Mobile..either Iphone 4(S maybe) or Samsung Galaxy SII.. can't decide.. somebody says go for samsung, while other's wants me to et Apple... sugguestions here will be appreciated as well.

Depends on what your priorities are, like for me, a decent camera, rich bass sound & high resolution games are the must have features. So if you want any of these features, then go with Sony Xperia S, your second option should be Iphone 4s as the dual core processors in this device are extremely powerful and gaming on 4s is way better than on Samsung, not to mention Iphone 4s has the best 8 MP camera in it's league. When you have to buy a phone then check their specs, but take it from my personal experience, Samsung's specs look good on paper only.

BBC asks: Do camera phones need 41mp? To shoot photos as good as the Nokia 808, YES, YES, YES! (#rant)

The tech newbie knows not what mega pixels are

The slightly aware thinks more megapixels the better

The more tech familiar might be aware that more MP doesn’t mean better pictures. It’s a common comment of the self proclaimed photography enthusiast – the MP myth. They might even suggest it might be bad.

Those who assume more MP might not mean anything in the 808, surely don’t understand PureView.

Damian Dinning and Nokia know that more MP does not mean better pictures, but knew that to get the best picture quality and camera versatility, there are various solutions to which one required 41mp. Just like with the N8 or the N86, Nokia only ever stepped up the pixels when they knew they could do it damn well properly. Proof? The best camera phone until PureView was the N8. There are no ifs, or buts. The N8 ruled the camera phone segment longer than any other and 808 and PureViews are only set to extend Nokia’s imaging reign for a long time to come.

Certain iSites are trying to detract away from the Nokia 808 because of what they understand of the megapixel myth. They simply don’t get it. It’s not about 41mp at all. It’s not about taking 38mp photos at all. It’s certainly the first interesting talking point but there is so much more; the 41mp is just the tip of the iceberg. This glittery gold is merely a case for the diamond inside.

It is most funny that whilst they try and accuse Nokia of not getting it, it’s they that fail to understand what Nokia is attempting with the imagery in PureView, debuted on the 808.

The BBC wrote yet another article on Nokia’s 41mp camera, provocatively titled, “Does a cameraphone really need 41 megapixels?”

PureView allows lossless zooming without mechanical jutting zooms. Demolder dares to mention that camera phone sensors are tiny. Nokia in 2010 already destroyed all camera phone sensors and even those in compacts. Yesterday their sensor ate the N8′s and all those point and shoots. 3X as much as point and shoots or 5x as much as camera phones.

So:
41mp sensor? “Ooh more MP is not good. Actually it’s bad.”
It’s not about the mp – tick
It’s about having better pixels – tick
It’s about having better sensors – tick
It’s about having better processing – tick
It’s about being more versatile with lossless, silent zoom – tick
It’s about having better low light performance – tick

Downer of the party, Demolder says the 808′s unique selling point will not be in proportion to the technological leap or cost. He comes out with this pile of tosh,

“”Most people would find the zoom useful, though few will know they have it, fewer will discover how to work it and fewer again will remember to use it.”"

How much of an idiot do you have to be not to know your camera has zoom? Well perhaps Nokia can train them with better ads. Ones that show slide zoom. Dammit Nokia, do the zoom in and enhance joke. Zoom once, zoom in again, and again. Folks with point and shoots know zoom. This shouldn’t be that much more difficult. My non techy friends always try to use zoom on my DSLR when using prime lenses. They sort of expect zoom. Deliver the knowledge that you are the one to do zoom the best and right on a phone.

As for ‘need’ – that question can always be answered – what is need? As long as the camera is there, it’s a camera phone. But what differentiates Nokians is that they’re looking for perfection in imaging. If you want high quality photos with versatility in zoom, then of course you need Nokia’s PureView tech. If you want to take photos like the 808 can, then yes.
