Cellphone Cameras Finally Rivaling Standalone Camera Quality

Sony Ericsson C905

For as long as cellphones have had cameras, they’ve been seen as the underachiever of the camera world. It’s always just been accepted as truth that you’ll never take a decent picture with a cellphone camera; serious photography is best left to standalone cameras.

Well, that’s not going to be the case much longer, as big strides in cameraphone technology are delivering quality cameras inside regular old cellphones. Sony Ericsson, for example, just unveiled the first cellphone available worldwide with a whopping 8 megapixel camera inside. That’s probably a larger sensor than is available in your point and shoot, isn’t it? And that’s just the beginning. With lens technology improving by the day, within the next year we should be seeing most cellphones loaded with cameras that rival most of the point and shoot cameras currently available. And no, cameraphones will never rival the image quality of a full DSLR camera, the era of carrying a separate cellphone and digital point and shoot camera around with you is coming to an end.
