Iphone has THE most utterly atrocious camera fitted to any "premium" phone since the K750i was introduced, four years ago, the iphone does have some amazing attributes, but let's not entertain any delirious fantasies about it's picture taking abilities please!!
Oh, and i HAVE owned one, along with every other 5 and 8mp camphone from which to base a reasoned comparison.



Yes but I think your confusing apples with grapes here. I don't think anyone for a minute (yes even Apple) tried to market iphone as an image-centric device.

If I remember right the K750 WAS marketed as an imaging phone (and to some extent the w800 as well although due to the walkman branding it was more focused on music). And im sure likewise any phone with a 5mp or even 8mp camera module goes well those manufacturers are not going to put camera modules of those capabilities on and not market them as imaging devices are they?

Apples and grapes.

It's adequate for the purposes of taking snaps with your phone, and nobody's "delirious fantasy" is suggesting anything more than that. I don't think anyone would pretend that the iPhone's "premium" status has ever had anything to do with its camera.

If there's a fantasy being played out here, it's this idea that other "8mp" camphones are worthy photographic tools in comparison.

Couldn't resist jumping in , just so people have a clear idea of what the new generation 8 megapix cell phones are capable of - here's a Samsung i8510 INNOV8 photo from this article (reduced to 800x600 for simplicity).

I abandon the idea of getting an iphone but I will get surelly an Ipod Touch just for gaming,apps and the wow effects on girls
The 5800 is better now with the new FW but I still miss...the good SE cameras and easy themes editing! You will say that I am crazy but I am seduced now by the C905 and specially if the new FW will give it better specs! I had a meeting yesterday with a bank manager,it was at 11am when I was walking toward the meeting in the street,it was sunny,I received a SMS and...it was very hard to read it because the screen was nearly white because of sunlights!!!!!
The C905 are exellent under direct sunlight...

Battery is better,Speed is improved of about 20%,touch sensitivity too!
An english dictionary has been added
Camera still su*ks big time
The screen is better than omnia because of higher resolution and it handles better in sunlight(but not enough)
Voila! so if you need a descent camera and bright screen don't take the 5800...nor the omnia,take a C905

And here's a really telling quote from that article -

Samsung i8510 INNOV8 exhibits the best, most mature, image processing. Its results can easily pass for a low end point'n'shoot digicam.


Woowee! A low end point'n'shoot digicam! I gots to get me one of them!

lol .....ok i am not quite sure what this proves, is this grainy picture meant to prove that an 8MP cameraphone is an acceptable replacement for a standard digicam?

You should get an iphone. Even if you donŽt use the full internet (which is a BIG down) uŽll still have access to the app store and cydia with all their cool and very advanced mobile apps. The apps on the store are the coolest iŽve seen on a phone and cydia can help you get what the store should have or fill a few of the iphoneŽs gaps (video camera, richer sms and phone apps, background tasks, desktop themes, system customisation and shorcuts and on and on and on). The developing community around the iphone (official or not) is what makes the device so wonderful. I highly recommend the iphone.
