camera phone

Advice on new phone please , rarely use my pay as you go phone but get a few texts.Rather than a phone which takes photos I think I need a camera that can be used as phone.I do long distance walks so need phone to keep in touch by text with home and to take photos views ,wildlife Don't want a contract phone.

    You can use a special Memory Card that will allow any standard camera (that takes SD) to use WiFi to sned taken pictures to a server. No need for a 'phne'. But if you do want SMS, then you;ll need a phone-based camera, and there are plenty to choose from on PAYG - just check out the capture resolution - the more it provides, the more you pay for it!
  • Re camera phone ,a Sony W715 has been suggested any comments would be welcome.
  • The W... range of Sony Ericsson phones are the walkman ones, mainly about music, whereas the C.... range are the Cybershot ones, which are supposed to be more photo oriented.

    The C905 is 8mp and has auto-focus, image stabilisation and a xenon flash.
    Why pay more than you have to?
