Your link goes to the m.youtube-site, was this intentionally? Either way, my computer says "Filetype and address not recognized".

Yes but is very hard chois. Pixon12 have crisper sharp images and excellent optics. N8 have natural color reproduction , big 1/1.83" sensor, soft detail. OK, let's blind test - don't look in EXIF who picture is better?

I still stand for last year comment Pixon12 had over-contrast color even it look nicer than competitors also look bit unnatural one but detail in picture it have to praise as well!

Left picture was shot by SATIO 12 mp
Right picture was shot by N8 9 mp I guess

@Etaab
Good video and really impressive digital video zoom, I would love to see some video at night shot

Like i said i have no doubts that the N8 will have far better quality than any other 12mp cameraphone, it'll take time for me especially to get the right settings for each scene. Remember, those pictures were my first attempt.

The video is especially shakey, but thats not the camera, i was stood on a metal bridge over the river and as people walked across behind me the whole bridge vibrated and made the videos appear to be rather shakey !

Anyway, heres the full N8 images with some extras thrown in, again i must stress how raw they are, complete auto settings with little experience of the camera, rushed shots:

Agreed! I saw lot comment about new-owner of N8 after shot performance quite not satisfied as they expectation, I it remind me when I got mine satio very very first month. It would take sometime to get used to new device

Keep sharing etaab I love to see how good of N8 perform days after days!

Heh, well i got my Satio when it was released in October last year, i only started to be happy with the pictures it took from about March this year onwards. Prior to that, i just couldnt get a good picture. I thought every picture was blurred, bad contrast etc.

Since then ive been using the white balance, EV and scenes more effectively. I'll have to take some similar shots with the N8 when i get a chance.

Satio has not much to tune though unlike Pixon12 and Nokia N8 basically I preferred auto scene with auto focus and image stabilizer always turned off.
Red eyes flash is about close range less than meter to keep it work properly and eyes are must keep open when flash fired that make some dizzy though.
EV changes is about ISO controller for Satio, usually adjust to minus -0.5 to -1.0 depend on light source it really help.
Face and smile detection quite gimmick not common use in moderately shot.
Macro is fairly well performance.
