Over the last couple of weeks we’ve been reaching out to people and asking them to experience the camera on the Nokia Lumia 920. Here we will showcase some of the images taken, along with thoughts from the photographers themselves.
Here are a couple of shots taken by Jason Friend (www.jasonfriend.co.uk), an award winning landscape and travel photographer based in the UK. The one above is the very first he took and below is a ‘nice and vibrant’ effort in low light.
So far Jason admits he loves the true 16:9 sensor on the Lumia 920. He’s also noticed something that is missing… #2instawithlove. After catching up with him he had this to add:
“It is great to be able to control the settings of the camera especially iso and Ev (exposure). The lens is also nice and sharp… And after all the lens is really one of the most important aspects of any camera.”
Next up we look at the vivid photography of Peter Goodbody (www.p3dro.co.uk).
Just by looking at his set of images you can see that they are truly stunning. The above graffiti and this stair case at the Odeon in Liverpool are particularly striking to me. It’s worth noting that Peter edits every photo he takes in Lightroom, even those from the Lumia 920.
Peter’s review is rather practical and based on whether the phone could produce images he’s happy with, while also fitting into his workflow. There are lots of positives including slow shutter speeds that help to capture sharp images thanks to OIS. He also reckons images ‘are sharp and impressively free of noise, even at high ISO’.
Take a look at the full review for the whole picture, if you’ll excuse the pun.
The cute doggie above belongs to Michael Palmer (www.michaelpalmer.com), as does the image. Unfortunately his testing turned out to be a disaster due to a fault with the unit. However, he did manage to produce one of his favourite pictures of the cute doggie above (Skip), and some great shots around London to boot.
Another Lumia 920 will be in Michael’s hands soon enough, so we’ll hopefully hear a happier tale next time… and see some more photos of Skip! In the meantime enjoy this video Michael shot with the Lumia 920 on a Photowalk in London.
Finally we have a camera review from Bouvanrooij (www.thegadgetbook.com). Overall he found the camera on the Lumia 920 to be ‘outstanding’. He’s been using it for one week and is positively ‘loving it’. Below you’ll find his video review or you can jump through to the written review on thegadgetbook.
If you like the images you’ve seen here or want to know more about the photographers behind them I urge you to check out more of their work. If you have your own Nokia photography that you would like showcased please send it in, or tweet us @Nokia_Connects!
