Nokia shows off Lumia 920 at NYC event, 9/5/2012.
One thing is very clear when it comes to Nokia's mobile devices: Cameras are extremely important.
Kicking off today's press conference for its Microsoft Windows Phone 8 devices, Jo Harlow, executive vice president of Nokia, started by talking about the Lumia 920 and its PureView camera.
However, for the Lumia 920, there was no mention of megapixels or oversampling or lossless zoom, making it clear this is not the same 41-megapixel PureView camera module in the Nokia 808 PureView. PureView is now and, according to Nokia imaging head Damian Dinning's tweets, has always been about branding for Nokia's cameras on the whole -- not a specific spec or technology.
Basically this is no different than Sony naming its cameras Cyber-shots or Canon calling its compacts PowerShots. Likewise point-and-shoots from camera manufacturers have always had different feature sets. That's really all that's happening here with Nokia.
