Nokia expands apology for misleading Lumia 920 video, photos

Dunya News

Nokia expanded its apology over faked video and photos used to publicise its newest flagship phone.

Unveiled on Wednesday, the Lumia 920 features the PureView camera, which has a floating lens optical image stabilization (OIS) technology that Nokia claims lets users take sharp photos and video.Earlier this week, Nokia admitted a video that purportedly demonstrates the benefits of the 920s OIS capabilities was a simulation and not shot using its PureView camera. It later revealed on Saturday that promotional photos were also faked.The video was produced while the Nokia Lumia 920 was in early prototype and still not ready to show the full benefits of the amazing innovation it contains, spokesman Brett Young told Mashable in an emailed statement. While there was no intention to mislead, the failure to add a disclaimer to the video was obviously a mistake.
