New imaging experiences for Nokia Lumia

Camera Extras adds a host of new features to help you get great photos in all sorts of conditions, whether you’re photographing groups of friends, fast moving action, panoramas, or even yourself.

Smart Group Shot Smart Group Shot makes it easy to capture great group shots with just one attempt. Five images are captured in quick succession with a single press of the camera button. Advanced algorithms then detect the faces, and the ‘best’ face for each person is automatically selected and the images combined into a single ‘best’ shot. You can select an alternative face for each detected face, which is useful if, for example, you’d like to have everyone looking at each other.		Action Shot Action Shot allows you to capture action and movement shots with significantly improved shooting speed or as a burst of shots. But it’s when you review burst images that the fun really starts: a new control mechanism makes it easy to find the images you’re looking for. As you slide your finger back and forth, the images are displayed one on top of one another as if you were controlling the action, so you can try out sequences and play them back.
Self-timer Get yourself into the picture with Self-timer. Prop up your Nokia Lumia for photos you want to be in too, then simply press the button and then wait for the countdown to end.		Panorama Capture beautiful wide landscapes more easily. The new UI guides you as you move your phone, helping you to capture beautiful panoramas with precise alignment. The finished panoramas can be so smooth that you’ll wonder where the joins are.

Compatibility: Available for the Nokia Lumia 900, 800, 710, and 610* during June and July 2012.

*To optimise performance of the Camera Extras application with the Nokia Lumia 610 certain features may be limited.
