Lumia 1020 on AT&T image leak reveals Nokia Pro Cam app

The Lumia 1020 which is AKA as the Nokia EOS is the expected  smartphone with a 41 Megapixel senor that's being launched next week in New York City.  While earlier press invitations and blog posts from Nokia have alluded to a revolutionary smartphone camera an actual image from Twitter's favourite smartphone tipster @Evleaks shows what seems to be the AT&T version of the Nokia EOS complete with a new Nokia Pro Cam Live Tile. Nothing has been confirmed but as far as we know, this could be very probable. As for Canadians, Rogers is Nokia's preferred partner for high-end Lumias, at least that was how it has been with the Lumia 820 and Lumia 920, so if this impressive smartphone does come to Canada, we expect it to be under the banner of the big red machine.

Will this be the ultimate smartphone camera? Can this possibly disrupt both smartphones as well as digital cameras in general? All will be revelaed on July 11th!
