The Nokia 808 PureView is on its way to revolutionize smartphone photography with its huge camera sensor housing 41 millions pixels, but nothing speaks better about the camera as the photographs themselves. And this newest set of 808 PureView camera samples does exactly that - the quality is simply jaw-dropping.

The focus on most photographs is the smooth flow of water, the motion blur achieved with the manual integrated neutral density (ND) filter. The Nokia N8 can already brag with having an ND filter, but on the 808 PureView you can manually turn it on or off, and add long exposure times to blur something moving like water. This will also help a great deal with night photos.

The longer exposure times work great with water as you can see for yourself in the pictures below. All of the gorgeous images were taken on Greece’s most populous island Crete, pretty, aren’t they?
