OK, so 1020 is out.

I'm sure Nokia engineers are already working on the next project, so what would you want the next Nokia camera flagship to have?

Here's my list:

HARDWARE

1" sensor - Give it a big sensor, I don't care about the thickness, 14-15mm is fine by me as long as it has a big sensor and shoots phenomenal images. Especially low light images.

ND filtre - Bring it back.

41MP(or more) oversampling.

OIS like 1020, even more improved.

Xenon+LED, mechanical shutter, etc... all the positives 808 and 1020 have.

Lumia 800 size and design, I'd personally prefer a smaller screen but thicker phone. Maybe a bigger screen but super thin bezels.

Obviously the newest hardware, Snapdragon 800, Adreno 330, 2GB RAM, etc...

SOFTWARE

Symbian algorithms like Nokia 808, so 5/8MP results are super smooth and detailed. Get rid of the WP8 algorithms they have now, they look terrible! They favour yellow colour in images, oversaturate too much(fantasy land colours), have grain, noise and images look like they have been painted not photographed.

As little noise and grain as possible, ISO 50, which 1020 cannot do.

Improved low light, more realistic, Lumia's night colours look unreal and artificially brightened up. 808 beats Lumias in low light, looks more realistic.

Colours - Give it more colour pop and light than 808, but nothing as crazy or yellow as 1020. I like Galaxy S4Z's colours personally.

Windows Phone or Android.

More Nokia Pro Camera options and customizations. Timer, Time/Date/Location imprinting, stabilization shot, 720p @ 60FPS recording option.


Basically, I want them to take Sony RX100M2 in their target and try to beat it in all areas and all conditions.

Samsung Galaxy Zoom is also close to be a real camera.

Yes, but I don't like that, I want it to be a cameraphone and look like a phone, not camera with Android.

Personally I don't like the S4 Zoom.
Anyone can slap a compact camera's sensor and lens on a phone!

We need new sensor tech.. the current stuff is almost maxed out and improvements will be incremental at best.

I can't remember where I have seen it but there was a phone that had 6 or 9 small lenses.
I liked the idea, imagine what 4 lenses would do now. You have 4 times the amount of light coming in. Without having to create extra depth in the module. Software won't have any trouble to stitch it all together.

-I would still like to see Lytro tech added to a symbian device
-I would like to have a phone with a magnesium-alloy body and removable battery (3000mAh)
-It would be cool if you had disc's (like what the back of the 1020 looks like) which were interchangeable lenses of varying focal lengths and apertures
-I would like to see pocketwizard, SU-4 or CLS support built in with manual flash control.
-Give me a built in polarizer - ditch the ND b.s. (or at least make it useful 2-8 stops variable)
-More powerful editing capability... ie- horizon adjustment, detail/shadow adjustment, noise removal & unsharp mask would be nice.

I don't know... just a few WANTS
