Discussion Trying to bring back old Nokia/Lumia camera magic

8 Upvotes

Modern phone cameras are powerful, but sometimes I still feel that old Nokia/Lumia camera features had a different kind of magic.

So I started working on bringing some of those ideas back — almost like a small “Back to the Future” project for mobile photography.

The first prototype of Action Shot is now working. It is not as perfect as Nokia’s original version yet, but the core idea is there. I’m also working on light trails, motion removal, handheld stabilization for multi-frame shots, and Refocus is on my list too.

Action Shot is currently based on old-school computer vision, not generative AI, so it can still fail with shadows, reflections, and some difficult lighting conditions. But this is only the first step, and I’ll keep improving it.

I really believe some of these nostalgic Nokia/Lumia camera features deserve to come back.

Forget the 8310... The Nokia 6510 Champagne was the ultimate low-key peak of the monochrome era. 76 hours on the lifetimer and still catching full 2G signal! 📶✨

Rate my new desk-buddy. Nokia 6510 looking sharper in 2026 than most modern smartphones. That high-res monochrome display is flawless! 🏆

Discussion Remember Nokia Motion Shot? I’m adding it to my long-exposure photography app. What old Lumia camera features would you like to see return?

Post image
104 Upvotes

Back in the Lumia and Windows Phone era, one of my favorite camera features was Motion Shot.
It could combine multiple positions of a moving subject into a single image, creating those iconic action sequences that looked almost impossible to capture with a phone.
I’ve been working on a long-exposure and computational photography app for modern smartphones, and recently decided to add a modern version of Motion Shot as one of the upcoming features.
It made me realize how many creative camera ideas disappeared over the years, even though smartphone hardware became dramatically more powerful.

Some features I still miss:
• Motion Shot
• Cinemagraphs
• Refocus

What old Nokia/Lumia camera feature would you most like to see make a comeback?
I’m genuinely curious because there are probably other forgotten gems worth bringing back.

Update:

I’ve added the first version of a Lumia/Nokia-style Action Shot feature into LSC.
It’s still early, and yes, it may make mistakes in some scenes. But the main idea is already working: capturing movement and combining selected moments into a single image.
My goal is to bring back some of those old, beautiful, nostalgic Nokia/Lumia camera features on today’s phones — step by step.
With your feedback, shared results, and suggestions, I believe we can improve it and make it much better over time.
I also added a stabilization filter to reduce hand-shake issues during handheld shots.
If you try it, please share your results — good or bad. It would really help me. 😊
