Nokia Lumia 1020 taken to a football game, tells an epic story in pictures

The Nokia Lumia 1020 with its impressive 41-megapixel camera is in a league of its own when it comes to mobile photography, and to illustrate that, a photojournalist took the phone to document a real NFL game of the Seattle Seahawks.

The end result is the gallery of images that you can check out right below, and it’s a testament to how much mobile phone cameras have grown. The Lumia 1020 is, of course, a prime example, and its brilliant camera application with easy manual dials for shutter speed, ISO and white balance is part of making these images possible. To help achieve steadier shots and have the phone last through the whole game, a Nokia camera grip also came in handy. All in all, it’s the focus on making a great smartphone camera that enables such impressive images.

Some, however, may still object, saying that smartphones do not have the lenses to make for a true camera replacement (and this would certainly be true), but the perspective these photographs give is somewhat different. “Photography is about telling a story and people can do it with their camera phones as well as their big cameras” - this is the one big idea that the photojournalist that took these pictures wants to leave with this photo set. And it’s worth meditating upon, don’t you think?
