| 1169723 | 2011-01-15 18:42:00 | The camera in my Sony Ericsson k800i has 3 Mp and it takes very good photos, so good that I seldom bother to take my digcam. I have had 5x7 and 8x10 photos printed with good results. Sure, there is no optical zoom, low light levels show noise, and there is a delay between pressing the shutter and the pic being snapped. It all comes down to this: What will the pics be used for? For my purpose - and I think most people - it will be to email or post photos online, or to show on the pc, or once in awhile to make a standard size print. A good quality 3 Mp camera phone will be just fine for these purposes. If you want razor sharp photos that can be shown on a big screen tv, for professional looking enlargements shot under a wide range of light conditions, then a digital camera should be used. There are sites that compare the photo quality of mobile phone cameras, such as: reviews.cnet.com and http://www.gsmarena.com |

I have a camera that has both digital and optical zoom and the digital zoom is useless. The quality could never approach optical. All is does is magnify the pixels which distort the picture. Never use it. |
