Well it depends on how the original sensor quality is @ 41mp. A small sensor with so much cramming of MPs would definitely not be of a very high visual quality. The reason why a 8MP dlsr quality is way better than a 14MP point&shoot. Well will have to wait for some real pics taken by the camera .... i mean phone. :D

its a phone not a dlsr, dont mix things up

read the white paper & you will understand what they are doing
 
^ I am not mixing nor am I comparing things. I was just thinking about the sensor's apparent quality to jot down visual clear images. Thats all :)Eitherways it should be better than the present gen phones/cams. They should use the tech in compact point and shoots. Will make a huge difference to images...
 
well. if Nokia was serious about this tech, they would have loaded it on a windows phone model.

i guess nokia would load this up on windows phone Apollo devices later this year.
 
yeah they said it will be available for other OS as well. i guess they are waiting for apollo. its sure going to shake up everything with tht badass camera + seamless integration with win 8.
 
i think the camera itself is just around 7-8 megapixels. rest is done using a software. this is just PR billshitgiri.

You really thought that even after official announcement of phone? You can atleast google around before passing something like this, too much premature for admin of forum as big as this. Just my opinion. I mean the technology is evolving so amazingly and brilliant tech used in this phone is big step forward for phones with powerful snappers. Not that its a innovation as a whole, it certainly is for a mobile phone.
 
when i posted the comment, Nokia had not revealed much about it. i had just read about the engadget piece. and i tend to be speculative when i am not sure about something. that is why it starts with I THINK.

and 41 megapixels means these image sizes...



And this is from Nokia:
 
dpreview has a detailed piece on this phone's camera. one of the best online resources for photography.

41MP Nokia 808 smartphone hints at pixel-binning future for small sensor cameras: Digital Photography Review

This pixel-binning means that noise (which occurs randomly), it averaged-out across up to 8 pixels. The high native pixel count also means that you can effectively 'zoom' by cropping into the center of the image and reducing the number of pixels you average together. Consequently you can offer a around 2.8x zoom, while maintaining 5MP output, despite having a fixed lens. The image quality will drop (since you're no-longer averaging the noise out), but it does mean you can offer a 28-84mm equivalent zoom, without the need to have moving lens elements, making the process fast and silent. And, even at full magnification, your 5MP should still be of the same pixel-level quality as contemporary 8MP phones.
