Well done to those who actually bothered to read to the bottom of my comment before jumping in. As I said, the cameras as fitted to the W800 and other S-E phones of that era were actually good enough as a "proper" camera for day to day use, which is indeed unusual for a phone, so I understand the prejudice even if it's unfounded. If I know I'm going to be taking photos, I'll take the Canon, but just because I don't, doesn't mean I want to compromise too much if the need unexpectedly arises, and the W800 does surprisingly well under the circumstances - apart from the lack of a real flash, but I'm talking landscapes etc not pubs. Furthermore, those who have read my other techno-fascist comments on matters photographic, will know that the rise in megapixels to 3.2 with this one is not necessarily the good news suggested by some above.
