Nokia Wows Mobile World Congress With a 41-Megapixel Phone Camera

Looking to go where no Android or iPhone has gone before, Nokia has unveiled two new mobile phones that it hopes will revive its fortunes at the start of the world's largest mobile phone trade show on Monday, including one with an amazing 41-megapixel camera.

Nokia Chief executive Stephen Elop told reporters at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona that the new phones -- a low-price $250 smartphone that runs the Windows Phone operating system and the PureView 808 which sports the staggeringly high-resolution 41-megapixel camera -- demonstrates "the actions necessary to improve the fortunes of Nokia."

The Finnish company is attempting a comeback of sorts with smartphones using Microsoft's Windows software.

And 41-megapixel phones.  Now if I could just get my smartphone camera to focus properly.

What a fantastic event. Wish I lived nearby. I've had the joy of hosting a few events in my sewing space where we make pillowcase dresses for girls in Nairobi. I hope your event is a big success! Best wishes.
