Amazing Technological Advancement in Smartphone Camera

It has been predicted for a few years already, and now it is really taking its course with accelerating pace of technological advancement in tiny cameras used in smartphones.  Looking at the image output samples and 1080p video samples, there is not incentive or benefit of carrying around entry to mid level compact cameras any longer.

Samsung Galaxy S5 is just around the corner, promising outstanding camera performance over the competitors.

Apple has long been known with spectacular photo images captured with its iPhone series, but the marketplace seems to be be going through a giant shake-up this year.  Besides Samsung, Nokia, Sony, LG, Motorola and HTC all have their own version of exceptional quality cameras installed in their flagship model phones.

Being the biggest electronics giant in the world, Samsung has been putting out a dizzying array of new products.

Take a look at the upcoming camera-focused Samsung Galaxy S5 Zoom.  It's a hybrid of S5 and a solid mid-range camera built into one unit with a size not much larger than a typical large screen smartphone in the current market.

This latest Android gadget phone boasts a 20-megapixel rear shooter with a 2-megapixel front-facing lens.
