From a professional photographer..

Max, its true... I wish there were more apps. But as a pro-photographer, I haven't seen a camera phone like this. Its the main reason I got this phone. And no, nobody is paying me any money for this. I wanted to share this because it is really cool that I can make my camera do this. I have a feeling you can not get this with a Sony android phone no matter how many good apps you try and use. And anyway if you read the album description above, I do post production on computer, just like with my 5 D Mark II.

I think a lot of that is light and processing, but I am sure you get much better than average pictures from a zeiss f2.0 lens vs a regular camera.

The realy amazing one is the Nokia 808 Purview. It has a bigger sensor than the G12/G15!

I recently bought the Nokia L920, because of the camera and the ability to take low light photos, and love the wide angle as well. Can't wait to take this little baby for a spin. I also read that the viddeos quality are outstanding.

The phone can shoot RAW?

I dont see a setting on it for shooting raw vs jpeg. It does have a setting for iso (up to iso 800 on my 920) , which surprised me after reading the raw question and go looking to see if it does.

Wow! At first I thought these were from his DSLR camera, but they are from his Nokia L920.
I don't think an average person could take these kind of pictures, but knowing Nokia L920 could actually be a back up digital camera for a pro.

Kinda cool but no phone camera is worth switching entire ecosystems, IMHO. Not if you actually buy apps anyway...

I agree with this. I switched from the iPhone/iOS ecosystem because I realized I don't use apps. The basic functionality of Windows 8.. I prefer it so much more over iOS and the 920 is such a good device. Love mine.
