There is a minor furore brewing with accusations that Nokia faked their “girl on a bike” video to make their Optical Image Stabilization video look more impressive.

In response Nokia has apologized for not making it clear the video was simulated to show the effects of image stabilization, and have provided this video above, shown during the keynote, of some-one walking with a Nokia Lumia 920 prototype and another smartphone without OIS.

Have a look at the video and decide which is the Nokia Lumia 920.  Answer after the break.

The video on the right is the Nokia Lumia 920 and the one on the left is the other smartphone.

Do our readers think Nokia was being dishonest regarding the capability of their camera? Let us know below.
