peevee1: "To put these differences into perspective, before the release of the iPhone 5, we asked 50 non-photographers to compare 15" prints of a similar image from each of these cameras, to work out which were the cheap ones and which the expensive ones and which was the iPhone 4s. 15" prints aren't a stringent photographic test, but they're bigger than most iPhone photos will ever be printed. Over half of people placed the iPhone 4s above the Nikon D3. The picture quality from the iPhones is 'good enough' for most people."
This is the important finding. When light is good and your subject is not moving fast, don't fool yourself that you need an expensive equipment.
iPhone IS an expensive equipment

Petrogel: Unfortunately iPhone's, Samsung's S III or Nokia's PureView image quality CAN NOT justify the HIGH PRICES these products are sold, of course a photo is up to the photographers perspective, but i would agree with madeinlisboa these are toys, expensive toys for what they offer !!!!
And as "The Jacal" 2 days ago said

VLampa: Some of the privacy concerns here are based on the assumption that the camera automatically uploads everything it takes on the internet. It doesn't. The onus is still on the user to select which photos to upload and bear responsibility for whatever privacy issues it begets.
Also, no one's forced to buy this. :D
Might be the only way to sell (by force ) !!!

Petrogel: An expensive camera phone with no reason of existence, Too expensive for a camera, too incapable for a phone !!!!!
@ Vestmelter "....... the phone is remarkably unimpressive because it is based on Nokia’s ancient Symbian operating system. That means web-browsing that’s so slow you might as well not bother even comparing it to Apple or Android. And it means an interface that is in places as clunky in its design as the bulbous Pureview" doe newspapers http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/nokia/9378495/Nokia-Pureview-808-review.html For me the incapability goes to the O.S in relation with the price of the phone

Photos can not tell the truth, photos are the two dimension display of a multi-dimensional real world, BUT they can give a guided perspective, some times true, some times false . The movie was Very inspiring, an excellent work

Petrogel: What happened with the comparison with the real DSLR's , Pentax 451 or EOS 5D or Nikon D 800, that some of the funny commentators were claiming Nokia's superiority, Come on dear Dpreview post a review (we all need to laugh a little). Oh i forgot Nokia has a lot of "useless" megapixels to be compared with a real photo cameras.
if you see no differences compared to your "lowly" d700 go visit an ophthalmologist before it'll get worst !!!!
