Handphone Nokia

Hp Nokia - When choosing a device to capture images with there are three distinct categories: use the camera on your phone, buy a cheap point-and-shoot camera, or spend a little (or a lot) more and get a professional grade camera.

Although they might be the choices at the moment, Nokia’s sales chief says it won’t be that way for much longer. Working for a mobile phone company you would expect some bias, but Anssi Vanjoki, executive vice president of Markets at Nokia, firmly believes that soon the camera phone will make heavy, professional digital cameras obsolete.

He reasons that eventually the phone in your camera will be capable of capturing images on a par with such expensive hardware. In fact, within 12 months we can all expect to be taking HD-quality images on new smartphones:

It will not take long, less than a year, when phones can record HD quality video and you can transfer it directly to your HD television set. They will in the very near future revolutionise the market for system cameras.

Although HD cameras may be commonplace next year, we wonder how long it will take for a Nokia smartphone to produce the same quality as a top-of-the-line digital SLR camera?

Matthew’s Opinion

I can certainly see smartphone cameras improving to the point where many consumers don’t consider buying a separate camera anymore. In fact, I think that’s already starting to happen now we are seeing 5 and 8 megapixel cameras becoming the norm.

Digital camera technology is going to continue to advance though, and will remain a few steps ahead of what you find in a phone. Companies such as Nikon and Canon need to stay ahead in order to keep selling high-end cameras.

The gap between high-end camera and smartphone camera will certainly narrow. Eventually we will get to a point where the image quality and video capture is so good you can’t really improve upon it anymore and still expect the human eye to notice the difference. How far away that is from happening I don’t know.

You also have to consider new technology coming into play such as the recent interest in 3D video. Such features will surely hit high-end cameras first making smartphones play catch-up when the technology becomes more affordable.
