I have a Nokia Lumia 1020 AMA

808 had a 1/1.2" sensor versus the 1020's 1/1.5" sensor and Nokia laid off the noise reduction for a more accurate picture. Graininess is unavoidable with such a powerful sensor in a small package. Adjusting settings such as ISO and post-shot software help with the graininess.

I'm very impressed with how the 1020 helps with adjusting settings and the tutorial in Nokia Pro Camera. I don't know **** about photography but am taking some amazing shots.
 
How quick is the shutter release (the amount of time from the time you press the camera button to the time the camera actually takes the picture) on the 1020? Is it faster than the 920?

Thanks.
 
NDA is lifted on 1020 but they don't want us sharing pictures.

Could you please ellaborate a bit on that?
I find it strange that Nokia doen't want journalists/users to show the capabilities of the 1020's camera, make it sound like it's not as good as advertised.
 
How is the front facing camera compared to the 920? Can we see sample pics from that? And also, I like the 1020 pics more, but the Amber update may really may make my 920 as good as the 1020 so I'll wait, at least for the update and a price drop. Maybe a Snapdragon 800 processor version later this year?
 
Looks like there is no variable aperture nor ND filter in this generation

Most images are taken at F2.2 - with shutter going as faster as 1/2500 to compensate for the brightness.

Curious how it would cope.

I was told by Nokia not to share pictures taken with the phone until it's launched. That's all I can really share, sorry.
 
The 1020 appears to be really impressive with it's camera, How is performance on the OS?
 
I believe 808 has fixed aperture also at 2.4, N86 however has variable. ND filter is not present in 1020 as confirmed by Pureview engrs. One of the advantage of 808, aside from the much larger sensor, is having iso 50 which is better in bright outdoor shots for lesser noise.
 
I just noticed my white balance was set to sunny changing it to another setting removes the orange tinge. Major I will send you new pics

Does this mean all the pictures taken with the 1020 and posted here had the white balance set to "sunny"?
 
Yes, just like the 925.

thanks, the flickering issue is so much annoying on my 925, the text blur and images shadow trail is bad also but i can live with it.. Sad to hear that these issues also available in the 1020... Just wondering if this can be reduced with software update.. Amoled is not that much bad thats why im thinking of a software improvement...
 
Those uncompressed, full resolution photos are absolutely outstanding. Look at one of the ones where the guy is setting up the microphone and zoom in. Look at all the city details down below.
