If it is priced around 30,000 INR, Nokia will have a lot of potential buyers in Indian Market. On a side note, see the following video. It has all of the images taken with Nokia 808 PureView. It also has a time-lapse sequence shot in South Africa with inbuilt sequence shooting feature. Settings used: Creative mode / Interval / 30s & 5s
I seriously doubt whether these phones will ever replace DSLRs. I specifically mentioned the 'entry level DSLRs' in my earlier post. The real power of DSLRs is in producing RAW images with a dedicated sensor; I think mobiles may take some time to catch up with them on that front. Simply having more Mega Pixels isn't the way to compete with DSLRs. Also, a lot of people thing that the more Mega Pixels their camera has, the better is the photo quality. That's totally wrong. Mega Pixels only ensure how much can you enlarge any photograph; which we seldom do.
Well it not going to replace any dslr or even a very good Point & shoot as cameras have lots of control to shoot.But definetly it has large sensor and could be liked by the people don't really don't want to mug arround the camera setting. Definetly it could produce best image than any phone. In photography its a saying that best camera is that which is with you right now and a mobile phone a thing which is always with you so why not a phone with best camera.
Cameras can be never replaced by any Cellphone regardless of the megapixel comparison. This model may rejuvenate Nokia's Market in India that is a separate issue. I understand that good MP camera is one of the features of a phone and I am never going to purchase any phone for single good reason. Sounds good as a status symbol.
