In the dedicated camera space we’re starting to see a logical and needed pull back from cramming more megapixels on a sensor which actually led to a decline in image quality in models without the specs to handle it.

Looking forward to learning more about the product but a camera phone will never replace my DSLR (despite what Techcrunch says). My first digital camera was two megapixels and the biggest flaw it had was being a battery hog. The image quality was surprisingly good (in good light) and quite suitable for anything not needing to be enlarged for framing.
