Nokia N82 wins TIPA "Best Mobile Imaging Device in Europe" Award 2008
25 April 2008 by Olav Hellesø-Knutsen Largest European photo and imaging press association awards Nokia N82 Nseries handset for camera capabilities. The N82 by Nokia is a compact multimedia computer that integrates phone, GPS, web, video and music functions around a 5 megapixel camera with a high-speed, f/2.8 autofocus lens. This Carl Zeiss Tessar focuses from 10cm to infinity and produces sharp prints up to and beyond A4 size. A 20X digital zoom is available to help users get closer to the subject, and though the exposure is automatic, it can be adjusted with exposure compensation of +/- 2EV. As in a traditional camera, the user can select different white balance settings to shoot accurate colours, even in fluorescent or tungsten lighting. Several scene modes are also available to optimize the N82 for great images, whether shooting portraits or night shots. This 112g mobile device adopts a Xenon flash and comes with a 100MB of internal memory, but this can be expanded to 8GB with a microSD card.
"We are very excited to hear that the Nokia N82 has been recognized for its excellent imaging features," says Juha Kokkonen, Director for Nokia Nseries devices. "The Nokia N82 is an excellent example of how converged devices entirely change the way people contribute to and share on the internet by combining strong camera capabilities with built-in A-GPS and an array of connectivity features."
The Nokia N82 supports microSD memory cards of up to 8GB which allow the device to hold up to 3600 high-resolution pictures, 5 hours of high quality video capture, up to 6000 songs or all of the available regions for the Nokia Maps application.
TIPA was founded in 1991 as an independent, non-profit association of European photo and imaging magazines. With 31 member magazines from twelve countries, it is currently the largest photo and imaging press association in Europe. Once a year, editors from the TIPA member magazines meet to vote for the Best Photo and Imaging Products in Europe.

On 8 May 07:45 chbutcher wrote if you combine the n82 with the samsung g800 or g810, the picture quality is the same. But the Samsung has 3x optical zoom. Therefor I think the samsung is better. it gives you so much mor if you have more tele and wideangle. The SE cams are not that good at the moment. I hope they make some progress, that would be good for competition. The phones are great, but the cam... On 3 May 15:14 vey wrote No Wonder.... cause N82 very easy to Kick K850 Cybershot, K850 still weaks in RGB take a red object and you got pink :( On 3 May 13:12 AV wrote RIP SE you guys make me laugh....

I don't think we needed your input to know its pretty decent. The article confirms it! On 26 Apr 20:32 FoneJunkie wrote Yo yo yo, listen up Foolios. Dis fone is teh awesomest thing ever in da world. It iz da baddest shit yo. Peace. On 26 Apr 17:57 mode wrote No, it doesn't look like an entry level device, though it does look somewhat similar to SE design. Nevertheless, a worthy winner. Cybershot is now officially a marketing gimmick, shameful indeed On 26 Apr 02:34 silentwhistler wrote another achievement for nokia! congrats...and to SE, better luck next time. On 25 Apr 18:33 Stalix wrote Yeah I just bought one of these to replace my k800i On 25 Apr 16:30 planetX wrote hahaha u guys are tech slave of it!!! i rather use my ericsson R180 peace...... On 25 Apr 13:49 Vlad wrote actually the design is a traditional candy bar, looks fine plus the keys are functional, you dont hit things accidently like the k850 or k800, if you dont own the phone you wont know :) plus its not all just about pictures either the n82 kicks k850s but left and right, in every category :) so rightfully said RIP SE On 25 Apr 06:13 rip wrote N82's design sucks, it looks like an entry level phone On 25 Apr 05:25 korbindallis wrote @TM aggred with TM all SE needs to do is focus on the next cyber shot and make it better then N82 in all areas and just make it look good, the N82 is a good phone but in the looks department its dog ugly and i think Nokia rushed the design they just wanted to take sales from K850 On 25 Apr 04:58 TM wrote Hopefully rather than "SE...RIP," it'll give SE more motivation to release something better and more powerful than the N82....especially imaging-wise. On 25 Apr 03:25 DT wrote K850 ... RIP! SE ... RIP! |
This is not the first time Nokia win this prestigious award. Nokia N95 won last year. In 2006, the Nokia N80 was given the award and back in 2005 Sony Ericsson K750 was ranked highest.
