Digital Camera Vs. Camera Phone

An anonymous reader writes "CNet.co.uk has done some simple head-to-head testing of camera phones alongside digital cameras to see which device takes the best quality pictures. The results are surprising, with Nokia's latest handset, featuring a built-in 5-megapixel camera, taking more vibrant pictures in medium light conditions than a 10-megapixel dSLR. Of course, the pictures aren't fully representative of how the images would look at full size; but given that most people resize images to put on Flickr, we could start to see a decline in dedicated digital cameras sales and an increase in camera phone sales."

  1. Editorializing by jaymzter · · Score: 1, Troll

    By now I'm sure this is redundant, but can we just cut back the editorializing a bit? "Most" people aren't putting their photos on Flickr. The /. editors seem to be simply trolling their readership at this point.
