With its extra large screen, the Lumia 1520 will come with some new photography apps standard. Nokia Camera is a combination of Nokia's manual photography app Pro Camera and its feature-packed Smart Camera app. Nokia Storyteller is a new photo management tool on the Lumia 1520 that sorts and presents photos either by time captured or location.

Another new tool on the Lumia 1520 is Refocus. This lens mimics the effect of a light field camera in that it allows the user to choose a focal point post-capture. Not to be confused with the old app of the same name and function, Nokia's Refocus Lens is accessible in the native camera app and lets user pick new focal points after the photo is taken or set everything in focus. Refocus is more like like iOS's Focus Twist than a Lytro camera in that it uses software instead of hardware to achieve post-capture focusing. Check out some examples of Refocus here.

If Nokia's Pro Camera release is any indication, we should be seeing Nokia Camera, Nokia Storyteller and Refocus released to non-Lumia 1520 devices shortly after the new phablet's launch.
