Cons:

*Pretty heavy for its size at 158 grams. (add that bulge 'coz of the optics)
*Battery is just 2000mAh ( 13 hours battery life claimed :rolleyes:)
*Processor is not futureproof (no word on GPU)
*Will be priced above 40k for sure
*Could end up as just a photography enthusiast phone

The Needle demonstration just BLOWN my mind totally..!!!

Which one?

There were rumours that the camera can capture in RAW format. Not sure..

Direct hit at their competiters:

Last year Nokia released the 808, a Symbian phone that also sported a 41-megapixel sensor. How is the Lumia 1020 different?

Kevin: To answer that, I need to step back for a second. When we shipped the Lumia 920, it was the first time anybody put optical image stabilization [OIS] technology in a broadly-available smartphone. We really broke down a barrier when we did that. The low-light performance of the Lumia 920 is incredible because OIS holds the sensor still and keeps the shutter open longer so you can capture more light. The 808, meanwhile, was trailblazing because it was the first phone to deliver such an insanely large image sensor. The notion of putting a sensor that big inside a phone—much less a camera—is a little bit crazy. But the sharpness that it delivered was spectacular.

What you see in the Lumia 1020 is the combination of those two things, and a whole lot more: It has all the benefits of a huge sensor combined with the incredible sharpness of next generation optical image stabilization technology that we spearheaded in the Lumia 920. So the 1020 is bringing together a number of powerful technologies that haven’t been delivered together before. Another key point is that while some DSLRs have sensor technology that’s competitive with what’s in the Nokia Lumia 1020, a DSLR doesn’t have the processing power a Windows Phone has.

Read in some comments that Images produced are not snappier, it has a lot of noise compared to Pureview 808. OS to blame

It has Snapdragon S4 Krait Dual core 1.5 ghz with Adreno 225. Basically the exact same chip as in Lumia 920

And sure it's the king of "smartphone" cameras, only for 2 months :p

i have tremendous respect for nokia, but this is what i consider as pure stupidity. why even start to compare a camera phone with a dedicated camera?? and people who shoot with dSLRs barely give a sh!t to processing powers inside the cam[RAW image ftw! ]. im pretty sure the mobile will launch with a price tag >40K, and at that price range there are damn good SLRs which will chew out the 1020 in image quality.

exactly :D

what a joke....processing power of dslr is just too much for a mobile to handle ... even my basic dslr can handle 12 raw images of 20MB per file continously (240MB) and save it in 1-2 minutes...
just for info D800 with 36megapixel can handle RAW file of size 80MB continously till 20 shots and save them togather in around 2-3 minutes = 1600 MB

its sheer stupidity to even compare a phone cam with dslr...max phone cam can be compared it is to a canon s100 or nikon P7100 etc

Well, these phones are very good alternative if you need high quality occasional images without carrying any camera with you. They can't replace your DSLR but yes, can replace point to shoot one.
