Yesterday, Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia made official a new Windows Phone 8 device, the first in the Lumia series to pack a 41-megapixel photo snapper, namely the Lumia 1020, which will arrive on shelves later this month with a brand new camera application, called Nokia Pro Camera.
The app was designed to deliver a brand new, innovative photography experience to all users, while also capable of unlocking the full imaging potential of the Nokia Lumia 1020, the handset vendor claims.
Nokia Pro Camera will be set as default on the Nokia Lumia 1020, offering full control over the camera settings, while bringing professional photography features to everyone, a recent post on Nokia Conversations explains.
“I believe that it is the start of a revolution in creative photography for mobile,” says Marcus Olsson, the lead program manager for Nokia Pro Camera.
“We’re giving photography experts and enthusiasts the tools to create amazing photos previously unseen in smartphones.”
The application was designed to enable users to easily access the features and capabilities of Lumia 1020’s 41-megapixel camera, and removes the wide array of settings, wheels, and buttons that professional cameras pack at the moment.
Through this app, settings such as shutter speed (1/16000 to 4 seconds), EV value, ISO (100 to 4,000), White balance, and Manual focus are at the user’s fingertips.
In addition to these features, the Nokia Lumia 1020 is also capable of capturing a huge amount of detail, so that users could do more with the photos they have taken.
“The Lumia 1020 captures such great amounts of detail that you can shoot without having to think about framing the shot, and then edit the picture afterwards to make it perfect,” Marcus Olsson explains.
“Thanks to this unique feature called dual capture, you get an easy to share 5-megapixel photo, but it also saves a full resolution image in the background so you can go back to that shot for endless reframing opportunities.”
The smartphone can shoot great photos at night, courtesy of the four-second exposure time option, while also providing users with a slide zoom feature that should make it much easier to zoom in even with one hand.
