Instagram will be coming to Windows Phone aboard the Nokia Lumia 1020.
However, the full Instagram app won't be available – it'll be an exclusive Hipstamatic application.
Hipstamatic Oggl Pro adds a number of new settings to the Lumia 1020 including setting manual exposure, reframing shots, auto-leveling and dual capture. The app will launch with a 30-day free trial of all lenses if you sign up by August 9. After that, you'll have to pay to use different lenses, although it's not yet clear how much the in-app purchase will cost.
When you've captured your shot, you can upload them to most social networks, including Instagram.
Lucas Buick, CEO of Hipstamatic said, 'The Nokia Lumia 1020 is the first time a hardware manufacturer has built a smartphone to be camera-first, and having the opportunity to build our software alongside this talented hardware team is exciting.
'We’re eager to continue building amazing camera products for the mobile community, and to further inspire creativity in people by making it easy to capture and share life’s best moments through photography. Hipstamatic Oggl Pro on Nokia Lumia 1020 reflects our vision, gives even more control to photographers, and produces stunning results.'
The app takes advantage of Nokia's camera API, allowing developers to integrate many of the flagship device's features and settings into their apps.
The Nokia Lumia 1020 is the latest Nokia Lumia Windows Phone device and the 41-megapixel camera really is the star of the show.
The Hipstamatic Oggl Pro app will be rolled out onto other Windows Phone 8 devices with at least 1GB RAM soon.
