Nokia Camera now available, combines Pro Cam and Smart Cam into one photo app

Well the rumors of Nokia combining its Pro Cam and Smart Cam photography apps into one package have proven to be true. Just a little while ago Nokia released its Nokia Camera App for Lumia Windows Phones.

You get the camera controls and zoom later features that Pro Cam offers along with the smart mode we've grown fond of that Smart Cam offers.

For those not familiar with smart mode, it shoots a sequence of photographs that can be combined in different ways such as finding the best shot of the group, removing unwanted objects, and changing faces in group shots to make sure everyone is looking at the camera.

If you are already running Nokia's Pro Cam, the changes come in the form of an update (version 4.2.2.8) which will switch everything over to Nokia Camera. The new photography app is available for Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 8 devices and works with limited functionality on phones without the Lumia Amber update.

Nokia Camera is a free app that you can find here in the Nokia Collection of the Windows Phone Store.

*Only available for Lumia 92x devices or higher! Will be coming to all Lumias with 'Black' update

Thanks, everyone, for the tips!
