The biggest feature on the Nokia N8 is its 12-megapixel (4000x3000 pixels) camera with Carl Zeiss optics and Xenon flash & autofocus. It features a substantially larger sensor than any ever used in any other Nokia device – even bigger than many found in dedicated cameras. Recently, we caught up with Nokia’s resident camera guru, Damian Dinning, to get the full lowdown on what went into fine-tuning the N8’s camera and video capture skills. It also provides 1/1.83'' sensor size, ND filter, geo-tagging, face and smile detection. It’s not just its 12-megapixel camera and HD video skills with HDMI support that set the Nokia N8 apart from the crowd.

A further menu contains your other apps, but we imagine most people will install their most used utilities things like Facebook, the media player, email and the like on the home screens and avoid entering the menus for the most part. The Nokia N8 brings also compatibility with popular Internet video formats and desktop Flash. With optimized video streaming and playback support, Nokia N8 provides a fantastic platform for bringing your favorite TV and other video services to a mobile computer.
