Most Cellular Phones come with a camera today..

So, let's see what you can do with yours !

If you can, include the following info

**What kind of phone

How many MP the camera is

Where you took the shot

What (if any) post work you did.**

I'll start..

It's an LG phone..nothing fancy

pretty sure it's a 1.3 MP camera

Took the shot on some back roads coming home from work.

made small bumps in contrast in saturation, a little noise reduction and sharpening

**BlackBerry Bold 2MP In the kitchen 'studio setup'

No postwork, the phone triggered its own flash, no additional light been used except a glass door from the left about 2mtrs away.(did not bother to draw a curtains together)

I find it soft and too much noise. I guess I got use to the Canon quality.

Great tread, hope others will share their cellphoto(s) too.

Thanks Bruce. Makes me wonder thou, why your 1.3 looks sharper and more saturated then my 2 MP?  I did a same picture with my Iphone  2MP, same softness but a bit more warmer tones and the IP did not used a flash.

Where is everybody, they all lost their cellphone...lol? I realy wanna to see some more.

Yes...... it's sad but true..... some of us are still living in the dark ages!!!
Living in a remote rural area, we have very limited service, so we just got our first cell phone this year, but it is barebones until they get the digital tower up ( which was suppose to be in by Oct 1st! And if you talk to any of their tech support.... they will tell you "there are no analog towers, they are ALL digital! Yeah, right, what planet is that guy living on! LOL :P)
So no camera phone at this time, but we do have the one model that picks up both analog and digital signal!!! (Of course don't tell the tech support guy, cuz he will only tell you that "there is no such thing")!!! LOL :P

No harm done, just feeling frustrated and left out of the loop sometimes, but I have the life I love living out in the boonies! I grew up in a suburb of Los Angeles and don't care much for big cities any more. So we all make our sacrafices! LOL  :)

Great mini-challenge and cool entries so far. Alas, my phone has no camera. Think it is an early 2000s model, hahah. Check out the link. This photograph travelled across America with nothing but a camera phone and got some amazing photographs. Go to Special Projects: Image America.

Got a phone...no camera.  My phone is off 99% of the time. I use a land line mostly and turn on the cell to make a call once in a while then turn it off.

I did participate in the "disposable camera" thread a good while back..so that counts for something!  : ) 

This is interesting stuff so far. Thanks to those uploading pics.

Took this shot at a local bar with my LG DARE which has a 3.2 megapixel camera.  Sometimes carrying my DSLR in a small place like this can be cumbersome to say the least.   The Dare lets me capture spur of the moment and candid shots like this. It also has burst mode, LED flash and can go up to 400 ISO.

I have a cell phone with camera but I don't know how to get the pictures out of  the phone. I can see the file is only 7k so it is probably not worth anyway

Kind regards
