Nokia 808 PureView Seagulls!
We’re highlighting some Seagulls taken by the Nokia 808 PureView after a heads up from Janne. These first few shots you might have seen a while back when Richard Dorman/Sheridan01 snapped them. Full gallery on flickr.

Janne shared a photo that was accidentally taken click of the water that also captured some Seagulls.
Just a couple of 100% crops from a single full resolution Nokia 808 PureView picture taken at the Helsinki harbor. The crops are not great in themselves, and the whole picture just a random click at water, but just show the unexpected detail you can make with this much resolution available after the fact. The original is attached to show that I wasn’t really photographing the birds at all. The crops are at 1:1 pixel resolution, no scaling and no PureView effect, with slight Photoshop adjustments in the crops (I originally prepared the crops to be used elsewhere). The original is not touched in any way.
The original of the above photo can be seen here.

Some crops
With PureView you can really find pictures in pictures. Here’s our own 808 Gallery from a couple of months back.
I think this might be a Seagull

Cheers Janne for the tip!

wooow,.awesome.,
those are from months ago!
are you enjoying the Olympics at all Jay? getting any snaps? would like to see those instead
My crops from the Helsinki harbor, the in the middle of the story, are definitely *not* months old since I took the pic a week or so ago.
I just thought the other seagull gallery would go well with my own crops.
Yeah, PureView is quite awesome in so many ways. The first seagull pics show what the quality can do, my crops show what even accidental high-res shooting and then cropping can achieve.
Marvellous machine, the 808.
yes thats very true i recall snapping a few pics of a light beacon and didnt realize until looking at the images later that there was a seagull sitting on top of it looking at me lol it was pretty neat
Has Jay got 808?
No. I had a dream last night I did. And one with interchangeable lenses. I even planned on taking photos with it today. Woke up without 808 :/
Hahah, is that Nokia World? So many pictures of Nokia users.
