Nokia EOS Phone

[Phal]

The name might be a bit confusing with all the Canon EOS stuff but has anyone else been keeping an eye out for this phone?

When I picked the Nokia 920 as my last phone it was largely because I like Windows Mobile and this phone was supposed to have the best camera around. I wasn't disappointed but it wasn't quite the same as their 41MP Pureview 808 camera they had released before.

The Nokia EOS phone is going to be the first Windows Mobile handset to include the 41MP sensor (or more likely a variant of it) and in the last few days it seems some more news of it has leaked.

So far I've seen that it will have optical stabilisation again like the 920 and 925 handsets but it will also have optical focus and a mechanical shutter.

I'll certainly be interested to see what the results are

Well the name Eos is from Greek mythology so I guess it must be hard to prevent other people using it.

The 920 and soon to be 925/928 sensors are more focused on low light performance so the sensor isn't the same as the original Pureview 808. This new Eos sensor is supposed to be more like their 808 Pureview camera. A 41MP sensor with optical zoom and stabilised optics sounds interesting.

On a side note, some pics of the Samsung S4 zoom just got leaked and look rather bulky lol
