- Advanced photography modes
- Video stabilisation
Cons:
- Noisy in inadequate lighting
- No burst mode
- Lacks panorama mode
- Macro mode requires minimum distance of 15 cm
- Focussing issues in low-light conditions

Nokia 808 PureView review
Happy with your phone's 8MP camera? Surely 41 of them would be preferable? Nokia thinks so, and is trying to prove the point with the 808 Pureview.

The Nokia 808 PureView exists because smartphones have made compact cameras all but obsolete. A 41Mp camera strapped to a dated Symbian smartphone , the Nokia 808 PureView is a strange mix of awesome and awful, probably best viewed as a compact camera with low-end smartphone functions attached.
