[TheLinuxBust]

Näyttää ihan hiton hyvältä!

[powervr250]

Damn this is some seriously sick shit!, this makes the i phone 4 look like a washed up turd on a foggy morning! Thumbs up if you wanna use this for a porno!

[PLimaFerro]

Amazing quality video. I've just got an N8 but haven't tried video yet.

[doshuevosconajo]

amazing quality for a phone, how much better can it get ?. Thanks for posting

[majestixblue]

very nice result!

[topolino70]

@ernis110 At that time when I shot this video I had Velbon CX-440 tripod. That was ok for steady shots but I would not recommend it to video use since it does not have fluid video head.

Now I have Velbon c-600 tripod and I am quite satisfied to it. It has fluid video head and with it the panning and tilting goes smooth.

[ernis1100]

Can you please tell me what tripod you used, I would like to buy one. Thanks

[Helslinky]

Is the depth-of-field you see in many of these shots automatic or do you have to potch with settings ? ? ? ? :)

[topolino70]

@Helslinky The DOF - effect and close focus is done by attaching a magnifying lens in front of the N8. It cannot be done by fiddling with the settings - to my knowledge.

[chordslanka]

is this recorded video laggy or is it youtube?

[topolino70]

@chordslanka I have not checked the original, but at least it seems that if I watch this video from Youtube @360p there is no lag and @720p there seem to be a little lag. So at least in my case the problem seems to be with the computer or with the NW connection.

[tseluykot]

very nice..but i would like to see also zoom!

[topolino70]

@tseluykot Thanks. If you mean zooming in and out while recording then I must say that you have to search that among other N8 users. I don't like to zoom in or out while recording and especially I hate zoom "pumping". But if you meant zooming generally, there are at least three scenes where I have used zoom: the close up of the bottom of the bridge, the floating water and the close up of a bolt.

N8 is COOL !!!

[bharath144]

Nokia #ftw. Amazing piece of hardware and software. And kudos on such a great capture. I have to try the magnifying lens idea out.

[topolino70]

@bharath144 Yes, N8 is very good with shooting photos and videos. And thanks for the compliments. 

[blu3sh4dow4u]

WTF??? i...but....what is this? :)) i want to give a bier to nokia's N8 camera developer.

[kilzone17]

fantastic

[1b1enjamin]

do you use a stativ ??????

[topolino70]

@1b1enjamin I guess you mean tripod by stativ? Yes, I fixed N8 to a tripod.

[Ksentaron777]

@topolino70 nokia n8 have avtofocus? or you use some focus?

[rikz87]

@Ksentaron777 Sory to interupt..but, I have nokia n8..nokia n8 have autofocus with video stabilizer..

[vipulxwv]

is this video really from Nokia N8?? well i dont think so because quality is toooo good.... how did u get this quality?? did u enhanced colors by software?? or any thing else?? please tell...

[topolino70]

@vipulxwv Yes, this video is really shot with Nokia N8. I did not use any extra software to enhance the video but I used only video at vivid color mode. Also all editing is done using phones own editing application. Naturally I used magnifying lens in front of camera in the scenes where you see close focus.

[Tahsin4rockU]

how do u focused ur object?? please tell me..

[topolino70]

@Tahsin4rockU Hi. You mean to ask how I focused near objects? I did it by attaching the magnifying lens to the front of N8. Please check my video "A way to attach Nokia N8 to tripod and lenses to N8" for details.

great video

[zilzila007]

beautiful!!

[RichardCamellion]

Beautiful! You could make a nature documentary with N8. The quality is just amazing.

[raphie07]

Beautiful video! I'd like to ask you just 2 questions. How did you "glue" your magnifying glass onto your N8? And which tripod did you use? Thank you very much!

[topolino70]

@raphie07 & @ Syed254. Thanks! I simply used rubber bands around N8 and magnifying glass to hold them together.

[topolino70]

@raphie07 & @ Syed254. Thanks! I simply used rubber bands around N8 and magnifying glass to hold them together. I don't remeber now the name of my tripod, but the mechanism is standard. Nothing fancy about tripod itself.

[aliabdulla3]
