Capture Your Life in More Detail With the Nokia N86 8MP
BARCELONA, Spain, February 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- When Nokia
(NYSE: NOK) set out to make the best mobile imaging device, it combined
wide-angle Carl Zeiss optics and an 8 megapixel sensor, resulting in
performance comparable to a stand alone digital camera. The Nokia N86 8MP is
designed to excel in both bright and low light conditions and it's optimized
for both video and still imaging. Its high-speed connectivity ensures easy
and convenient sharing. The Nokia N86 8MP is expected to begin shipping in
the second quarter of 2009 with an estimated retail price of EUR 375, before
taxes and subsidies.
"People demand mobile cameras that take excellent pictures in all light
conditions," says Juha-Pekka Sipponen, Director, Nokia Nseries. "That's why
the aperture of the Nokia N86 8MP is comparable to that of a high-quality,
stand-alone digital camera. Whether it's running with the bulls in Pamplona
or capturing the panoramic beauty of a sunrise over Sydney, the Nokia N86 8MP
will take brilliantly clear, wide-angle images that are instantly geotagged
to be uploaded onto sites like Ovi Share or Flickr."
Easy enough for a novice to use, the Nokia N86 8MP packs enough punch to
impress an experienced photographer. This includes a wide-angle Carl Zeiss
Tessar lens for panoramic pictures, shorter latencies and variable aperture
for super sharp photos in challenging bright and low light conditions. The
fast mechanical shutter ensures pictures with less motion blur while the dual
LED camera flash is powerful enough for excellent photography and video
capture.
"When it comes to taking the best digital photos, it's the quality of the
lens and the sensor that count, not just the quantity of pixels. The Nokia
N86 8MP is the first mobile device with variable aperture, adding to the Carl
Zeiss Tessar lens for excellent results. It has never been easier to capture
special moments in such a great quality," says Helmut Heier of Carl Zeiss.
Every detail of the metal-framed Nokia N86 8MP is thoughtfully designed
with photography in mind, including 8 GB of internal memory for up to 4,000
images. Like any high-end digital camera, the memory can be increased with an
exchangeable 16 GB microSD card. The device also offers a bright OLED screen
with scratch resistant hardened glass, easy photo management, full sync
capability with a PC and TV-out support for slide shows.
Shipping with the latest version of Nokia Maps and full Ovi integration,
the Nokia N86 8MP gives a personal dimension to photos and videos. People can
share their location with personal content like geotagged photos. The Nokia
N86 8MP comes with a built-in compass, along with an integrated 3-months
license for full voice and pedestrian navigation so that happy snappers don't
lose their way when capturing life through the camera lens.
Multimedia features - music, games, video
The Nokia N86 8MP, with its integrated kick stand, is ideal for watching
videos and playing games. Each Nokia N86 8MP can play up to 25 hours of music
on one charge which can be enjoyed with the Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset
BH-214 also announced today. People can build a personal music collection
from the millions of tracks and playlists available from the Nokia Music
Store, where available.
