I was in London the weekend to see Kylie at the O2 Arena, and of course I took along an Nseries handset to capture some footage of the concert.
As you can see from the video below, the quality recorded by the Nokia N82, both video and audio, is pretty outstanding. Please bear in mind that the YouTube video is somewhat compressed.. [I've updated the YouTube video to show the high quality version]

I was near the front of the second block from the stage, so had quite a good spot, unfortunately unlike the N93/i the N82 does not have an optical zoom which makes close-ups a bit of a no-go.
There were plenty of people there recording the event on their mobiles, and as you may have spotted in the video, a guy a couple of rows in front of me often had his N95 8GB out to capture the moment.
Although concerts seem to be a bit more leaniant these days about recording of events, I did notice that security did stop a few times and look at me recording, I think it was probably due to the fact that the N82 omits a bright red light when recording, like traditional camcorders do. I think they were just checking that I didnt have one of those.
It just goes to show what a great handset the N82 is for capturing those moments.
