Samsung announces 5MP camera phone
Wednesday, 20 October 2004 11:05 GMT < Prev Next >


Samsung has today unveiled the world's first 5MP camera phone with a CCD, the SCH-S250. A spokesman for the company said 'the picture quality is good enough to compare with five megapixel digital cameras', but we'll reserve judgement on that one. It has a 92MB internal memory as well as an MP3 player. Samsung, the world's third largest handset maker, said the camera module was jointly developed with Japanese company Asahi Pentax


A true digital convergence product that combines a gamut of innovative technologies including a “true color� LCD (16 million colors), Text-To-Speech conversion capability, as well as, a 5-megapixel CCD camera.

The “stretch� design protects the lens and LCD while providing a digital camera feel

''Independence is for the very few; it is a privilege of the strong. And whoever attempts it even with the best right but without inner constraint proves that he is probably not only strong, but also daring to the point of recklessness. He enters into a labyrinth, he multiplies a thousandfold the dangers which life brings with it in any case, not the least of which is that no one can see how and where he loses his way, becomes lonely, and is torn piecemeal by some minotaur of conscience. Supposing one like that comes to grief, this happens so far from the comprehension of men that they neither feel it nor sympathize. And he cannot go back any longer. Nor can he go back to the pity of men.'' -my buddy, Fred

Yeah, but megapixels have very little to do with picture quality, its really just a figure used as another selling point. I'd be willing to bet that though that phone takes very large pictures, they are not very high quality at all, and it would be a better investment to buy a good cell phone and a good point-and-shoot digital camera for the same price.

Cruz is 100% right. Many of the shots you see on the cover of Sports Illustrated were taken with 3 and 4 megapixel cameras (Nikon D1H and Canon 1D).


Megapixels are really just a marketing gimmick, some 5mp and 6mp cameras may actually have great quality, but most just suck.

see the problem with cell phone/cameras is that there are no removable memory cars or usb ability. they just sell the cams and make you pay to get the pictures

i would love to have a cameraphone just for snapshooting..... i've got my digital rebel for real photography, but for just simple stuff, i'd rather not lug the rebel + case around.

If they're making it jointly with pentax, it's not going to be all that bad. They're a pretty respectable company in my opinion.
