Nokia N82 is Europe's best camera phone

"The Nokia N82 is a compact multimedia computer that integrates GPS, web, video and music functions around a 5 Megapixel camera with a high-speed, f/2.8 autofocus lens," the TIPA jurors said. "This Carl Zeiss Tessar focuses from 10cm to infinity and produces sharp prints up to and beyond A4 size. Several scene modes are also available to optimize the Nokia N82 for great images, whether shooting portraits or night shots," TIPA continued. Other Nokia N82 features highlighted by the jurors are the Xenon flash and 20X digital zoom. Although there are devices marketed with optical zoom, but those have serious problems with picture quality.

Of course Nokia N82's features are not limited to the camera. The Symbian Series 60-based phone supports 3.6 megabit HSDPA transfer and its built-in GPS receiver cannot be used only for voice navigqation, but we can attach geo tags to photos, thus marking the place where they were shot, this being a help in sorting them. DVD-quality videos recorded by the phone can be stored on a microSD card up to 8 GB large. Nokia N82's price tag is slightly above 315 EUR.
