As we all know the latest Symbian Belle update did a lot to update the camera software, which was great, however Nokia are about to go one step further with yet another update aimed at improving several different parts of the camera’s software. The update can be accessed through Beta Labs at the moment and this was done because Nokia didn’t want us, the owners, to wait until Symbian Belle to be able to experience the new changes that are brought to the camera – which is fair enough and quite the right thing to do.
The application software will still be in its familiar style but with added enhancements to make it faster to use and more intuitive. When you move the video/stills mode switch at the top left you will see an extra slot on the right which has been used to provide direct access to the scene modes – when in video mode the exposure compensation will be in place of the flash control so accessibility is much more direct.
Much smoother video
We’ve been waiting for this one for a while, the ability to shoot video at a frame rate of 30fps to give stability we’ve all been crying out for quite some time. The code has been changed and optimised to allow this, the older code offered much less stable frame rates as you can imagine. When using the Beta Labs app, you will be able to shoot in 30fps in auto mode which provides much smoother videos – this is especially apparent when panning your view.

Note: Update is only available for users who have Symbian Anna installed.

In the USA we can’t even get anna and belle is out!!???!!!!! Boy do I feel discriminated and deprive of what I should rightfully enjoy!!! after spending almost $600!!!!! I guesse that after all I did made the wrong choice by going with nokia!!!!! $200 with an amazing up to date mobile with a 2 year contract its cheaper and better in the USA!!! in october it will be a year with my n8 wich I hate because the software is out there but can’t get it with my high dollar UNLOCK mobile!!! To bad!!! it is a great phone and belle an anna could bring it back and prove to the american market that is a good investment because it is continually upgraded!! well at least some countries have those benefits!!! NOT Loyal customers in america!!!
Yono it is not out yet for anyone. Only anna has been released and belle wudb be released simultaneously for all i thinlk. But leaked version of belle is available. Inthink thst was beta, it works fine is very pretty but while rebooting screen can mess up requiring rebooting again. Very slick even for beta. They habe done a good job afyer a long time this time. Lets give them some credit and encoursgement
^not used to n8portrait mode yet. Hope they launch swype for it
i believe that belle is quite good and i have defiantly noticed the camera change before i looked into this i wouldn’t of updated it but due to my touch screen deciding not to work i had it sent for repair and to my surprise i had belle on it i thought that it is 100% better than the iPhone distribution due to the Nokia has better camera and better hardware and the n8 actually works properly my argument is you can purchase a Nokia n8 for an approximation of £500 or an iPhone for the same price why would people be that stupid and buy the phone with the cheap low spec hardware, crap operating system (made by apple) when you can buy a Nokia n8 for the same price. i would of personally gone for android but i believe that belle has changed me.
p.s i have attached my music website URL if you could please leave me feedback on the site it would be much appreciated i have chosen a free web hosting service which involves java but will be making a new website using html code if this one takes of there will be an option in the new website to download the tracks you want (this is a tempory website) thank you
