They will have plenty of support well beyond my 2-year contract (actually, my phone rep let me go without a contract :).

I chose the Q10 over the competition due to good phone call quality,...

I am using an app on my BBQ10 called 360 Panorama. It takes a little practice, but does a decent job of shooting quick panos. The cool thing is that when I open the panorama in an app called...

In the meantime, I will keep doing my annual 360-degree landscape photopoints with twelve snapshots taken from a tripod and stitched with Image Composite Editor. It is currently the only way to...

Awesome concept! Improve the image quality / resolution significantly (collaborate with MS/Nokia's 41mp sensors?), make it communicate with more than just iOS, and I'd be interested in buying one...

The "red" lake is probably just an algae bloom that was shot with infrared (where anything green shows up as red).

Most satellites shoot infrared as well as natural color. The infrared is sharper...

I find many comments helpful, with useful links, etc.

I also think that a 'comments' section allows knowledgeable readers to add their two cents in where, in many cases, the original author may...

As I've mentioned before, I'd like to see a lot more bridge-style cameras, or MILCs (EVILs), or even DSLR cameras, with onboard Android OS. Think of the huge amount of increased control and...

K.o.k.o,
I guess you missed my point. Perhaps since I mentioned Android, you thought I was talking about phone cameras?

This has nothing to do with phone cameras.

I am talking about melding two...

Hmmm, 5-axis stabilization...

B-b-b-b-b-b-but......, image blur hides the noise! :)

Lotsa nice features/tricks in this camera, but nothing that couldn't be done by Android apps. Still waiting...

I have two photo apps in my BB Q10. One is called 360 Panorama - it lets you take 360-degree panos and geotags them with the built-in GPS/compass. The other app is TurnMe Panorama - it lets me...

Check out the little silver car pulling out of the parking lot behind the Prince Hotel. It has EXTREMELY small rear doors! ;)

But mfrs have spent the last decade brainwashing consumers that megapixel ratings were the be-all, end-all. Now they have to un-brainwash people to let them know that sensor size is really where...

So......

When will we see a camera with a built-in phone (not counting Skype-type stuff)?

They talk about it in the third paragraph. It is not a Leica lens, but made by a factory in Japan that cut its teeth on building lenses for CD/DVD players.

I have an old FZ20 with the Leica lens....

Yes, I am behind on my video specs, but 17Mbps is still the blu-ray standard, AFAIK, even if they are mostly exceeding that nowadays.

Only problem with GH3 is limited zoom during recording.

If...

Speaking of the video, the 17Mbps listed is the standard for Blu-ray quality, although it is below Panny's 27Mbps+ of their video cameras from a couple years ago. Photo cameras still have a ways...

I would like one of these superzooms with android jelly bean, please! Then we could have all kinds of useful apps (like intervalometer) to make these cameras much more useful!

Also, how much...
