The Lumia 920’s PureView Camera Passes The Russian RC Car Test


When it comes to phone cameras, the Lumia 920’s PureView is proving to be pretty awesome at low-light shots, but how good is that Optical Image Stabilization? A couple of Russians with a 920, a Galaxy S III, and an RC car ran a little experiment to find out. Turns out it’s nothing to sneeze at.

While the S III’s footage turned out uncomfortably jittery, the 920’s fares much better, despite still having a bit of jank. And that’s just on top of an RC car with pretty rapid, violently jerky movements; in most real-life situations, you’d have to image the camera wouldn’t be vibrating quite that wildly. It just goes to show that, aside from previous fakery, the 920’s camera is definitely a force to be reckoned with. [Neowin via The Verge]
