The highlight of the device is the PureView 41-megapixel sensor which offers Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), backside-illuminated image sensor, 6 lens optics accompanied by a Xenon Flash. Nokia has also complemented the camera with its software like Nokia Pro Camera and Smart Camera Mode, while there is a 1.2-megapixel front camera as well.
