"Screen image is simulated."
"Product enlarged to show detail."
etc. etc.
Yes, yes, we like "truth" and all. Especially when they're selling a camera after all, but getting a great cameraphone image and getting an image that will work on tv are two different things. No real surprise. Maybe disappointment, but no suprise.
Why so much hate on Nokia?
I can say precisely which lens was used to make that photo: Canon EF 17-40 L USM on a DSLR. Or some other very, very similar lens. No photographer can mistake this for anything. Like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/meonoctis/5661946485/in/set-721...
There is definitely something up. The Register got their hands on one but the minders managed to stop them sending the photo externally: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/09/05/handson_nokia_lumia_... "Alas, the Minders leapt into Red Alert mode to prevent me transmitting the results, you'll have to take my word for it."
They are as noted prototype devices – with no announced release date – so it's completely in the realm of possibility that the camera simply isn't ready yet. Of course that doesn't excuse the misleading video and pictures Nokia used to advertise it.
