Camera Phones Plaza

Sony Ericsson released this phone a few months ago, billing it as the phone to take advantage of the 'capture and share' mentality we apparently now all have towards our photography. TechDigest reviewed the Sony Ericsson K510i and here are some of their conclusions:

"It's a lightweight phone weighing only 80 grammes, and although it's a candybar shape it has a slightly parallelogram knock to it, which makes it a little different. The back is a soft touch material (similar to the Motorola PEBL) and the whole thing is available either in black or purple.

Anyone who has had a Sony Ericsson before will be familiar with the interface, which is navigated by the mini joystick under the screen.

Connectivity options are good, with infrared, Bluetooth and a bundled USB cable for transferring files. It's also got Push email, although I'm not sure that the people that own this phone would necessarily need it.

The camera comes with a lot of gimmicky features, like the ability to add clip art and a frame to the pictures. There's also the choice of shoot modes. Panaromic takes three photos, providing you with a strip of the previous photo to the side so you can match up shot at each picture. There is also the 'burst' option, which takes a series of four photos in quick succession so you can pick the best."
