Samsung 7-megapixel SCH-V770 phone


Samsung is once again leaving its rivals eating dust as the Korean chaebol took the lid off its 7-megapixel camera-phone at CeBIT, Hannover. The SCH-V770 is more prosumer cam than phone, with a 3x optical lens, 5x digital zoom, autofocus, advanced flash, shutter speed controller and auto exposure lock. There's even an option to add on a wide-angle or telephoto lens (hopefully with optical stabilizer), as well as view images or video on your telly. No word on what the expansion options are, though we know there's 32MB of memory onboard. To keep up with all that fire power, there's a 16 million color QVGA TFD-LCD display and just about every kind of frills you probably won't use. We reckon this is going to be hell on battery life, not to mention that this is probably one heavyweight monster. And we don't mean features. (image courtesy of Samsung)
