The Nokia Lumia 920 offers a rather restricted array of camera options by modern standards, but it is a responsive device with a well-implemented touch-screen interface. You can browse through your photos by flicking them from side-to-side, view them as thumbnails in the Camera Roll, by date or in albums, share, delete and favourite images, and rotate, crop and optimise each image. The small arrow icon in the top-left corner is for playing back your images. Note that you can't take a still image during video recording.

The Nokia Lumia 920 can shoot High Definition video clips at full 1080p or 720p HD with stereo sound with the ability to change the white balance and Continuous Focus mode in the MP4 format at 30fps. Note that you can't take a burst of images on the Lumia 920, just a single-shot. The 8.7 megapixel JPEG images are quickly committed to memory in a single second, the screen momentarily blanking out and then displaying the captured image before the user can go on to take a second shot. You can take a photo on the Nokia Lumia 920 either by half-pressing the conventional shutter button to focus then full-pressing it to fire the shutter, or by simply tapping on the LCD screen, which quickly focuses and takes the photo with a single tap. Compared to a conventional compact camera, the Lumia 920 is rather bereft of options. All of the modes provide the full range of camera options, allowing you to change settings which include the ISP speed (Auto, 100-800), Exposure Value (+2EV to -2EV), White Balance (Auto, Cloudy, Daylight, Flourescent, Incandescent), Aspect Ratio (16:9, 4:3), and the Focus Assist Light (On, Off). The other available modes are Close-up, Night, Night Portrait, Sports and Backlight. We'd describe the general performance of the Nokia Lumia 920 as snappy, with little waiting around for the camera to take a picture - its certainly just as responsive as the majority of compacts that we've reviewed.īy default the Nokia Lumia 920 uses the Auto shooting mode. You then have to press the shutter button to access the Nokia Lumia 920's camera app, which takes another second or so. Press the small On/Off button on the side and the Nokia Lumia 920 quickly readies itself for action in around a second. The lens isn't that close to the edge of the body, so you don't have to be too careful not to let your left forefinger stray into the frame. There's no means of gripping the Nokia Lumia 920 the front or rear, making it a little difficult to get to grips with, especially since its unibody design is very smooth. In practice we could hand-hold the Lumia 920 in fairly dark conditions and still get sharp results for both stills and video without resorting to using the rather ineffective built-in flash. The Lumia 920 offers a built-in, lens-based image stabilisation system that Nokia claims offers a 3-stop advantage compared to smartphones with no anti-shake.

The combination of the wide-angle lens, f/2 aperture, very effective built-in image stabilizer and maximum ISO speed of 800 makes this smartphone better suited to hand-held low-light photography than most other comparable devices. There's a small physical shutter release button on the side, which can be used to jump straight into the Lumia 920's camera mode by holding it down for a couple of seconds, speeding up the picture-taking process.

The lens is a 26mm equivalent optic with a fast maximum aperture of f/2, alongside which is a small built-in flash that's not particularly powerful. It has a solidly built unibody design that feels like it should withstand the odd knock or two.
