Nokia PureView
Nokia PureView is the branding of a combination of technologies used in cameras of Nokia-branded smartphones, and previously, in phones by Microsoft Mobile. PureView was first introduced with Nokia 808 PureView. Hardware PureView cameras have on-chip image processors performing image scaling with oversampling, giving improved digital zoom and reduced noise compared to a typical smartphone camera. Both are combined with xenon flash, a 1080p HD video camera, and high resolution Zeiss all- aspherical 1-group lenses. Unlike the Nokia 808, the Nokia Lumia 1020 — along with other Lumia PureView smartphone cameras — possess optical image stabilization, which became standard in Lumia PureView bundling. The Nokia 808 does, however, compensate with its own exclusive camera-complementing media features, such as Micro HDMI TV-out, and built-in video editing. History Following the acquisition of the Nokia Devices & Services division by Microsoft, the U.S. software company acquired the P ...
