6 MPixel cell phone ( who needs a DSLR ? )

Hi!
MPixels isn't everything. Sometimes it's size that matters ;-)
* Imagine the noise of a 7mm wide 6 MP chip!
* Do a decent Over/Under with a 15mm dome port ;-)
I had a quick look at the 8MP Sony. You can see the noise already on the display. It's far worse than my "old" Olympus E-20. The E-20 has at least twice the chip size but only 5 MP (and still too much noise compared to an APS size chip)!

Ike. What's the ship date for the Nokia housing?
-
Herb, I don't think Ikelite has sorted out the Nokia TTL system yet. Keep that in mind when choosing your housing.

Ike, will you be able to make the phone operable to say 60'? :wink:
