Why pay for a separate camera that locks up your pictures on a memory card when you could just share them to Facebook at the touch of a button? Because it's the right tool for the job, that's why. Smart phone cameras may be getting better. But their biggest strength is their convenience, with image quality a distant second. I'm no camera snob: a compact camera that produces decent results is every bit as exciting to me as the most powerful dSLR, if not more so -- after all, a compact camera has less to work with.

By the same token, if a camera phone produced pictures comparable to a compact camera I would sing its praises from the rooftops, But it's unlikely, if not impossible, her and her iphone case It's just a question of size, A phone simply isn't big enough for a sensor or lens that can cope with tricky lighting conditions and produce decent results, There are, of course, some excellent cameras in phones, The Samsung Galaxy S2 has a decent camera, while the HTC Evo 3D snaps in three fancy dimensions, The iPhone's clever dynamic range features and wealth of camera apps have seen it become the most popular camera on Flickr..

Possibly the best camera in a phone we've seen is the Nokia N8, a 12-megapixel behemoth with xenon flash that's capable of capturing glorious aerial photos. Sadly, the N8 was a rubbish phone. No wonder sales of point-and-shoots dropped by 20 per cent across the industry last year, with entry-level cameras suffering hardest. The problem is the gap between what makes a good mobile phone and what makes a good camera. Mobile phones are getting slimmer, to the point that the Samsung Galaxy S3 is rumoured to measure just 7mm thick. Samsung is reported to have managed that by making the circuit boards inside the phone thinner than ever. That's great for a phone, as slim means portable.

Packed with apps and combining phone, camera, music player, TV and web browser, the smart phone is a very clever bit of kit indeed, We wouldn't be without one, We wouldn't her and her iphone case even start banging on about jacks of all trades mastering none, because smart phones have come pretty close to mastering the Internet, video, games, maps, social networking, and generally organising our lives, Crucially though, the smart phone does these things well for a portable device -- it's a compromise, While iPhone games are great, the iPhone is no replacement for a games console, While watching videos on your phone is a great time-filler, it's no replacement for a full-sized high-definition TV, Just because you can now watch a video or play a game when you're jammed onto a bus, you're still going to choose to watch a movie on your big-screen HDTV with ear-melting sound once you get home..

So when you have the choice between a camera and a phone, why would you choose a phone? Because it can upload to Facebook? Make cameras 3G -- problem solved. The difference between a televison and a camera, or between a games console and a camera, is that the TV and the console don't look anything like a phone. But a camera does look like a phone, so when the phone does what a camera does, we start to wonder if the camera is superfluous. Cameras should be more like phones. Touchscreens came of age the moment the iPhone came along, with its elegantly slippery scrolling and intuitive gestures. Touchscreens on cameras are becoming more prevalent, but unlike their smart phone counterparts, camera touchscreens aren't as refined and elegant.
