Nokia 808 PureView

Nokia 808 PureView
I have been using the Nokia 808 PureView and its amazing camera (41MP sensor, Full HD video) to capture photos & record making of videos from shoots during summer.

Filming with 808
I don't have the official stand adapter yet (very useful for videos & time lapses). Manfrotto superclamp & gorillapod worked as backup plan.

For flash users interesting thing to know is that you can optically sync flashes with 808 PureView's built in xenon flash. Creative minded people can find some interesting combinations possible with that. Turning the red eye reduction helps with timing when syncing studio flashes but flash power should be set to minimum to make sure it can recycle quickly after the pre-flash.

Quick samples. First image: syncing Pro-7B at studio. Second & last image: syncing Nikon SB-80DX.
