well in terms of apps there's over 100k apps in the Nokia store and all the major apps are cross platform anyhow
as for the OS you should give the new Belle update a look my N8 is like a completely new phone so even what criticisms there were of Symbian^3 are gone (people still have the N97 in their minds when they think Nokia but thats so not true)
as for an Android version the new Satio camera is getting nods at being just as good/better than the N8 (ive only seen one comparison review though and the Satio looks too overexposed imo)
edit: there's a rumor that the sensor in the N8 successor will be 1" like the Nikon 1 camera... hopefully it ends up being larger than that but thats still astounding if it is
Do you guys think its mandatory to have filters on your lenses? For example a UV filter for everyday shoots to protect the lens or polarized filters to create some cool effects?
UV filters are mostly used to protect the Front Element of your Lens which is always good but won't make your pics any nicer. Polerizers are really usuful if your shooting in the sun with Blue Skies or Shinny water. Posted via RS Mobile
I'd be careful with cheap filters though. Filters with bad quality (or non-existant) anti-reflective coatings will cause bad reflections/glare on your pictures.
I've also borrowed a cheapo polarizer for Formula D last year - it turned out it was screwing with my focus and made all my shots out of focus. It scared me for the longest time because I thought my lens was broken - then it turned out it was just the filter. But it also meant most of the shots I took that day was blurry

i'm reading that a clear filter, instead of UV one, is a better choice for protection if needed. seems to be debated quite often. Why do these companies still continue to manufacture and advertise the UV ones?
i bought a standard 2" Surefoot Body Plate by Jobu for my Wimberley Wh-200 vII. fits no problem!
it'll stay on my camera body so i can mount my camera on my gimbal head. i originally bought a long plate for my telephoto lens, but it stays on the lens. now i can use any short lens on the Wimberley!

So I was talking about Nokia Pureview recently and the rumor of how nokia is going to shove a 40ish Mpx camera into their next phone to use as a zoom function
well Nokia today released a teaser video for Pure View; the video is in 1080p and is assumed to be photos/videos taken from said phone and that the close-up stills shown at the beginning are drawn from the last image shown in the video
you guys might be interested in this link http://europe.nokia.com/PRODUCT_META...Whitepaper.pdf << it gets a bit technical on the details so you camera guys would get it talks about Nyqvist theorem and Bayer pattern, Pixel Photons etc oh and Bokeh? is possible/available/doable? with this phone
I know we have a couple pro photographers on here and I was just wondering what kinds of prices to expect for a short grad kinda photoshoot for 1 person.
Thanks for the responses on filters. I just got a Polarizer filter for mid day shots.
Where can you get some decent price ND graduated filters locally? I know they can be pricey but I'm just looking at options, since I love taking landscape shots. Thanks
