Nokia’s Refocus camera app is now available to all Lumia owners on WP8
You’d be forgiven for thinking that Nokia’s “shoot now, focus later” photography app, Refocus, required a PureView hardware to run, because until now it’s only been available on PureView-branded phones. As it turns out though, the app has just been made compatible with all Lumia phones running Windows Phone 8, including ones with down-to-earth camera modules. It works by means of a “focus sweep” — you hold your phone steady for a couple of seconds while the camera scans the scene ahead at a range of different focal lengths and then combines these into a single dynamic image that lets you adjust the focus and background/foreground blur later. If you’re reading this on a Lumia, the source link below should take you where you need to go.
