Does your cell phone have a camera??How frequently do you use it?

I have a HTC Touch & Nokia Xpressmusic phones. Both of them have good quality cameras.But i rarely use them. The last time when i used the camera on my phone was for birthday party of my office colleague, where nobody was carrying a digital camera.
Do you really think its an essential part of the cellphone??

my iphone have camera. i use it just rarely too. maybe sometimes they are essential and sometimes help like that day on your office colleague.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Mauleonjuan,
Even i have had similar thoughts.
The camera on the phone helps and comes in handy only in a rare scenarios, so thats really not worth the cost.....What are your thoughts?
Which cellphone do you have and what are the camera specs on your phone??

Hey Royal,
Thats a nice resolution to have and i am sure, its more than enough for a cell phone i suppose. Also the ZOOM specs are good. Its nice to have these camera specs for a cell phone.

I use it all the time! I found it very handy when I am out shopping and I see something interesting but do not necessarily want to buy it now. So I will snap a picture of it.

I also went to this really quirky, funky store when I was out of town. They had the most unsual things in there. I was not allowed to take pictures with my camera. But I did get my cell out (trying to make it look like I was just reading a text message) and snapped some pictures of some interesting things I saw. I found out how to turn off the sound when the picture is being taken so no one could hear it.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Lulu,
I absolutely agree with you.
Its a fact that you never know what you come across that you can actually take a picture of...and you can take a pic instantaneously.....thats where the cell phone camera can come in real handy....
But i must say that i havent experienced any such moments and probably thats the reason why i feel thats the cellphone camera is not really worth the cost....
So which cell phone do you use for taking pics and what are the camera specs on that cell phone??

Vaibhav

when i had a cell phone, i used to use my camera a lot just because i am the type that sees things differently and creatively and will take pictures of just about anything. however, the only issue i had was that i couldnt load my pictures onto my computer, but i did use it a lot.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hi Cher,
Its nice to know that you used ur cellphone camera a lot.
Though i havent heard of a cellphone from which you cannont transfer images to the PC...Which cellphone do you use....

5. myLot reputation of 98/100. wrangel15 (838)   5 months ago

Guess what I only have one camera and it is the phone on my phone. I enjoy taking pictures and I almost take pictures everyday. I would take pictures in my neighborhood, office, while riding a bus, while walking as I go home. I have my phone with me all the time & I really take pictures a lot.

For me the camera in my phone is now important. I never knew I am into photography until I got my own phone with a camera.

I cannot wait to have my first SLR camera...


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Wrangel,
Its so nice to know that you started from a cellphone camera and now graduating to the SLR. Its seems you have a massice craze for photography and you have clicked lot of images.
Which cellphone do you use....??
and which SLR are you planning to buy??

Regards,
Vaibhav


myLot reputation of 98/100. wrangel15 (838)  5 months ago

Actually I am only using Nokia 3110c. But I am quite satisfied on the camera's capabilities for now. It can save pictures larger than my laptop's screen.

As of now, I don't have any idea what SLR to buy. Maybe I will read things online about it especially the the basics of photography while waiting for the right time to buy.

You may want to visit some sites with pictures I really like:

Hey Wrangel,
I had a look at the sites mentioned by you and the images are really very nice.
Thanks for sharing...

hi, my cellphone also has a camera but I have only used it four or five times so far. I am no big fan of photography anyways and just tried it out to make sure it really works.
I didnt buy that particular cellphone cause it had a camera but cause I liked the "screen" as its a bit bigger than most and had a bargain price.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Book,
Its nice to hear that there is atleast someone hear who has thoughts & experiences similar to mine. Even i am not a big photography fan. There are times when i feel that i should learn the intricasies of photography. But when i tried going thru some material online i thought of it like rocket science .....so i just let it go....
So which phone do you have..??

Vaibhav

Hi I got a BenQ-Siemens phone and its really a great cellphone. Wouldnt trade it even for a Blackberry or similar expensive one.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hi Book,
It seems you love your phone very much and are completely satisfied with the features it provides you.
Whats the exact phone model you are using and how much did you buy it for??

Regards,
vaibhav.


myLot reputation of 96/100. book1962 (14301)   ranked 1,703 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

hi its a Siemens CXT 65 and I paid less than 50 Euros three years ago.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Book,
Thats pretty inexpensive i must say....

Yes, I do have a camera on my cellphone. I seldom use it because I prefer using a real camera. Mine doesn't have a good resolution. I used it when I am being requested by my 5-year-old niece to take pictures of her and I do not have my camera with me.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Jules,
Completely agree with you.
I have 2 phones and the quality of pics is quite good, but even then i prefer using my digital camera.
I use the cellphone camera only & only when i am left with no other options.
So which cellphone do you have??

vaibhav

I was actually surprised. I was happy when I got a cell phone with a camera, but I actually haven't used it very much. The quality on it is horrid while it's convenient there isn't as often of a use for it as I would have thought. It really just isn't that practical for me.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

It seems even you have had experiences similar to me.

The cell phone I last had did have a camera, and I used it often. The pictures were high quality and good for sending others or posting online. I got a new boost phone yesterday, very basic, to save on monthly expenses, so no camera.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Peacefulwmn,
Nice to know that you used your cellphone camera quite a lot.
Which cell did you have and what were the camera specs??

You have mentioned that you got a "BOOST" phone...what does "BOOST" mean...is it a company name?? I havent heard it before...so just curious...


Regards,
Vaibhav


myLot reputation of 99/100. PeacefulWmn9 (2300)   ranked 366 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

The camera phone was a Nextel i280, Motorala phone. The Boost phone/plan is also through Nextel, but no contract required, yayyyy!! For a flat 50.00 a month, you get unlimited use of all the features. You "re-boost" by purchasing a phone card of varying amounts each month. That way, you can control exactly what you spend, and again, I am so glad to out from under the contract. Every single time I want to upgrade or downgrade my plan, I had to begin the entire 2-yrs. from scratch, and I hated that!


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey,
I think what "boost" means is basically "pre-paid".....
Here you pay only for what you use and not for unwanted features....

Nice to know about that....i was not sure thats what it is called in the US...Here in India we basically call it "pre-paid"...

Correct me if i am wrong.

Regards,
Vaibhav


myLot reputation of 99/100. PeacefulWmn9 (2300)   ranked 366 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

No, you are right...it is pay before use.

When I first got it I was taking photos all over the place - swans, tulips, scenes out of the office window, my wife (many times). In the last few months I have almost forgotten that I still have it, maybe the novelty wore off, and anyway we have a newish digital camera.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Astonysh,
Thats excatly the same case with me as well.
The first time when i got a camera phone i was so happy that i clicked pics of almost everything....and more importantly the quality of the pics was horrible as compared to the current cameras....
But now when i have phones with better picture quality & clarity, i dont tend to use them at all...
So which camera phone do you have??

Regards,
Vaibhav


myLot reputation of 98/100. astonysh (1735)   ranked 702 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

It's a Samsung - I do not have the model number to hand. Pretty reasonable mid-range model.


vaibhavratnaparkhi (68)   ranked 36 out of 1,740 in cellular phones  5 months ago

Hey Astonysh,

Nice to know about those details.

Keep mylotting!!
