Nokia Camera returns to the store, rebranded as Lumia Camera

Microsoft recently removed the Nokia Camera from the store. Now, sporting new names, both Lumia Camera and Lumia Camera Classic are available for download, but unfortunately there aren't any new features in the latest releases.

It was only a matter of time before Microsoft released an update for Nokia Camera to remove the branding prefix and release the app as Lumia Camera, just like all the other Nokia Windows Phone apps now under Microsoft's control.

Lumia Camera replaces Nokia Camera, while the Classic version is actually the Nokia Camera Beta. An odd way of doing things, but Classic is targeted for hardware without the Denim firmware update. Both apps are currently sat on version 4.9.1.2 and as touched on above, there aren't any noticeable changes in the two new updates.
