Camera Phones invade Digital Cameras?

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

A Camera phones only started a few years ago and took off like rockets. The evolution has caused some industry observers to speculate that it may only be a matter of time before camera phones start eating into the market for digital still cameras and perhaps eventually devouring most of it. Digicam is a camera that takes video or still photographs, or both, digitally by recording images via an electronic image sensor. A camera phone is a mobile phone which is able to capture either still photographs or motion video but because you carry your mobile phone with you everywhere, having a built-in camera will allow you to capture both the planned and unplanned events taking place around you. A big advantage camera phones have over digital cameras is that you can instantly e-mail photos to anyone no matter where you are. Everyone seems to agree that camera phones will never take over the high end of the stand-alone digital camera market. Quality cameras are too big to fit onto a phone. If you have a bigger lens, that’s automatically going to make the thing huge. Camera phones versus digital still cameras two entirely different markets, and it’s not alone in that assessment. “There are things about a stand alone camera that cannot be duplicated at the camera form factor, such as powerful flashes, big lenses, auto focus. These things you cannot put into a phone and still call it a phone.”

    It’s large enough to watch a music video, or movie and actually see the expressions on people’s faces. The pixel density is about double that of modern laptops…

  3. Archos 605 WiFi (30 GB) Digital Media Player

    There’s no doubt this is a very fine portable media player, built to a high standard. From its high-quality LCD display to its easy-to use interface and even the little kick-back stand which hinges from its back so you can rest the player for easy viewing.

  4. iPod Nano 8GB (3G) – Blue MP3 Player

    Video quality, ease of use of the software and the online podcasts many of them free make this a great buy. I use it for study and workouts

  6. Sleek and stylish, the iRiver Clix offers a unique, intuitive interface and comes with extras such as an FM radio; a voice recorder; an alarm clock; support for OGG files and subscription content; and photo, video, and text viewing.
