The advertisement features the two-stage shutter key, built-in battery, and ergonomic design of the camera grip.

The video also notes that the camera grips are able to connect to tripods.

Nokia offers the camera grip for $59 with free shipping.

AT&T, however, only offers the black and white camera grips. The white camera grip is sold out through AT&T.

As Latinos Post noted, although the Lumia 1020 is touted to have a 41-megapixel camera, the number isn't 100 percent accurate. The Lumia 1020 can take 34-megapixel images under 16:9 aspect ratio and 38 megapixels in 4:3 aspect ratio. The device can also capture 5-megapixel (5MP) images.

According to Nokia, "5MP is the sweet spot for image quality that is easy to share and printable up to A3 size. And because our 5MP images condense the information from the 41MP sensor, they have amazingly high image quality."

The Lumia 1020's features include a 4.5-inch screen with 1,280x768 pixels covered in Corning Gorilla Glass 3. The new Windows Phone 8 device has 32GB of internal storage for 2GB of RAM. The device includes a front-facing camera with 1.2 megapixels, and also packs a 2,000mAh battery.

The new Windows Phone 8 smartphone, exclusive for AT&T, has a starting price of $299.99 when signing a two-year contract with the carrier. Amazon.com does offer the Lumia 1020 for $249.99.
