Sony Ericsson launches mammoth 8 megapixel Cyber-shot phone
5 megapixel may have been the specs to look for over the Christmas period, but if you’re in the market for a new phone today, Sony Ericsson has just raised the bar. Their latest Cyber-shot, the C905, packs in 8 megapixels. Overkill? Perhaps.
Of the 5 megapixel camera phones we’ve seen so far, none have truly made the digital camera obsolete, mainly due to the zooming functionality, shutter lag and overall usability. However, Sony Ericsson is packing in a Xenon flash, face detection, image stabiliser and a 16x digital zoom. There’s also geo-tagging of your photos and easy picture blogging.
