LOL... for what it's worth, it fits in your pocket, if you can't be bothered carrying 8-10kg gear around ;)

Mt Spokane Photography:
They will be good enough for many non photographers who want a snapshot.  How do they do with shallow depth of field, or low light?

I've nothing against them, they have their place.

If you want to see real world camera phone photos, check out Craigslist.  Blurry, usually too dark, in a word, awful.  Those are the photos that most camera phone users get.

Given the right lighting, and a distant subject where everything is in focus, they can take good looking images.

i think once you know how to use them and where the strengths and weaknesses are they perform well and will certainly in the near future be the death of the compact point and shoot
it is extremely easy to take blurry photos with a camera phone i found a free little timer app for the iphone which i find helps alot to take clear shots just need to find something to prop balance it on as a makeshift tripod
once they get on top of the shocking ISO from camera phones they will improve alot

It's just funny to watch people try to take ridiculous pictures with smartphones.  Yes, casual pictures they do fine.  But surfers 100 yards away with stop action?  What do they expect to get?  I guess at best you can get a landscape with a tiny surfer in it... I think 99% of people who don't have SLRs have no idea what they're missing out on.

The 1080p video comparison between iPhone4S vs 5DmkII is slightly more reasonable, even though the 5DmkII is still far superior thanks to lens selection and much better iso range (to say the least).  But as action photography goes, smartphones are a joke.
