How long is MS going to make us wait for Lumia Camera?

[Mr Lebowski]

I would download Lumia Camera Classic even though it was Nokia Camera Beta the new Classic is only available with certain 8 and 8.1 phones and reading the intro it specifically refers to Denim. I would bet that this is where it will be updated with the features listed above. Lumia Camera is available to all 8 and 8.1 phones and says nothing about Denim.
See which one or yourself is more likely to be updated to the New Lumia Camera.

Lumia Camera Classic: Lumia Camera Classic | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

Lumia Camera: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/lumia-camera/bfd2d954-12da-415c-ad99-69a20f101e04

I'm considering dumping vzw and downgrading to the 830, but not without the new camera.

WP 8.1 is available for all the models that you mentioned! The newest models are the most likely to get the update first, just like with the previous updates.

You should know that 8/730 are already shipped with denim!!

I was with Verizon for 12 years. I loved their service, but the reality is they're no where close to AT&T when it comes to WP support. I changed to get the 920 and have never looked back. I know that with the 1520 I have now, I'll get the latest updates (Denim, Windows 10) relatively fast with AT&T.

Anyone know if "Hey Cortana" was shipped with the 830/730 as part of the Denim update?

Hey Cortana will only be available on the Icon, 930 and 1520. The other's processors won't be capable.

Here I described why this can't happen:

Lumia camera update

 

[oryan_dunn]

Dude, I have a Lumia 830 WITH DENIM. Lumia Camera IS NOT THERE.

Exactly! That's the whole point. The official Denim page implies that it is part of Denim, and hence why everyone who reads that assumes it comes with Denim, and why everyone is pissed when they get a phone with Denim and the Lumia Camera features aren't there.

 

[Chris_Germany]

It doesn't matter if its in denim, relied on denim, or whatever toy name it.
It should have been released but it isn't.
I repeat myself: Even the head of Nokia imaging was surprised it isn't preinstalled on the 830!

 

[runamuck83]

Yea, they gotta just release the damn thing soon

 

[runamuck83]

*sing along* "And we keep waaaitting... (waaaitting)... waiting for Lumia Cameraaaa"

 

[Chris_Germany]

If denim takes till begin 2015 (there was a rumour), you can sing till Christmas at least.

If there is ONE SINGLE BUG in the new app, I will freak out! They had enough time....

This was my beef. I understand the distinction of part of Denim vs relies on Denim but the PR made it sound like it would be released with Denim. I fully expected the features to be on my shiny new 830 that came with Denim and it caused me quite a bit of confusion that they're not there. I'm new to the WP universe, though, so maybe I'm naive about how MS does things.

Nokia Camera (along with new features, not just the name) should be available with Denim. No excuses.
This is false advertising and deceptive marketing, and it will result in lawsuit. Comments that we just need to wait for the feature that actually sold us the device are pathetic, you need to get in touch with your solicitor and get it straight.

 

[several potatos]

What damages do you have that will give you grounds for a lawsuit, stupid?
