TAMPERE, Finland – For this exclusive behind-the-scenes documentary, our team travelled to Finland to meet with the inventors of the Nokia 808 PureView, Eero Salmelin and Juha Alakarhu. We also talk to some of the collaborators in video, audio, algorithm and interface design it took to turn an amazing idea sketched on a napkin into a fully-fledged product.

The whole film was shot using the phone, so if you want to see exactly what it’s capable of, settle back and enjoy the show. Let us know what you think in the comments.
