Identity Crisis --- Camera OR Phone

Sony Ericsson announced several new mobile phones and accessories where the C905 was the device that caught the most attention. No wonder why. It has a 8.1 megapixel camera with auto-focus, face detection, smart contrast and image stabilizer.

C905 seems a little large, especially the depth. Dimensions are (height, width, depth) 104 x 49 x 18 mm which are actually a little smaller than the comparable Nokia N95. The navigation menu is familiar for many as it is the same found in earlier Sony Ericsson phones.

C905 camera highlights

• 8.1 megapixel camera
• Autofocus
• Image stabilizer
• Assisted GPS for geo-tagging of photos
• Xenon flash
• Face detection. Auto focus on faces in frame
• Smart contrast for more correct exposure
