Nokia is preparing to release a new firmware update for its camera-flagship N86 8MP. According to AllAboutSymbian, with the new software installed, N86 8MP device owners will have the “Face Detection” option, a completely new feature for Nokia camera-phones.
You know how it works, right? If this option is turned “on,” the camera application will search for faces in the viewfinder and automatically focus on any that it finds.
In addition, we’re hearing the overall photo quality will be improved after the update — meaning better colors and less artifacts.
What we don’t know, however, is the exact release date, but judging by the fact that the first information has been leaked, I’m sure we’ll have more details in a week or so. Stay tuned…
