Nokia's 41MP pureview - anyone?

[dreed]

If there was an announcement of this phone from Nokia prior to today's mention on dpreview.

What I find interesting is this statement on Nokia's website:

"It’s time to think differently about photography. Nokia PureView imaging technology turns the world of photography upside down. It takes every bit of image goodness captured by a 41MP sensor and Carl Zeiss lens and turns it into beautifully detailed 5MP images and Full HD videos. Be ready to shoot and share with friends in an instant – all from a rather clever smartphone."

Finally!  A small imaging device, ideal for shooting sleeping bats.

Oh yes! All the pro photographers, from studios to stadiums, are selling their DSLR / MFDB cameras and buying Nokia phones now...

So as it seems Nokia is better in making cameras than phones

Funny, four of us were talking about Nokia's slip from supremacy at dinner tonight - perhaps this will revive them - or not.
