The best camera is often the one that you’ve got on you. And in their latest marketing video, Nokia is also trying to prove that. Apple has declared the iPhone to be the world’s most popular camera, and Flickr’s statistics still prove that to be true. But Nokia is fighting back really hard. After making waves with the camera in their 808 phone, they’re showing that the camera in their new 928 Pureview phone is better than both the iPhone’s and the Galaxy S3’s.

Upon looking at the footage in the video below, it actually seems to be quite true. The sensor may be better and the company touts the Carl Zeiss optics as well. After looking at lots and lots of iPhone footage, it actually seems like the video may not be hiding much in terms of legitimacy. But take a look for yourself after the jump.
