Nokia’s trophy cabinet is bulging at the seams thanks to its pioneering Nseries ‘multimedia computers’ and it may have to think about popping down to Ikea to get another one, after the N82 swiped another top prize.
The five-megapixel N82 was voted the ‘Best Mobile Imaging Device in Europe 2008’ by TIPA. The sceptics among you should know it’s not just any tin pot gong because it’s voted by bunch of dudes who know their photographic onions. TIPA, otherwise known as the Technical Image Press Association, were bowled over by the N82’s photographic brilliance.
The TIPA jurors were just loving the N82, gushing:
“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. 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.”
The judges also dug the N82’s Xenon flash and 20x digital zoom and who can blame them. Let’s hope Nokia didn’t deliver a Gwyneth Paltrow style blub-fest speech when it accepted the award.
