One of the leading retailers of cell phones and accessories in UK, Phones4U, has revealed that the Sony Ericsson C905 is all set to invade the United Kingdom this October. That means customers looking forward to its new 8-megapixel lens and a host of other photog-friendly features, not to mention the GPS with geotagging, will have a short wait until as early as October 10, to get their hands on this Cybershot handset. Apart from its much-talked about lens, the Cybershot C905 also has WiFi, Bluetooth, HSDPA support, GPS, and TV-out functions. Details about pricing are not known yet.

Sony Ericsson is working on a new Cybershot camera phone. The handset, codenamed Kate, is said to be similar to the C902 Cybershot and it will be coming out sometime in October for 300 Euro or $450.

Here’s what you can expect from it this mid-range phone:

• 5 megapixel Camera with Xenon Flash, Auto Focus, and Smile Shutter
• No front camera for video calling
• Switch button between Still & Video as well as a button to access gallery of images you just taken
• No GPS
• EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA
• Sony Ericsson’s Java Platform 8.4

We’re just have to wait and see where it’s going to hit first!

Sony has another Cybershot for us, the DSC-T500. This is a 10 megapixel digital camera which also knows how to record 720p videos at 30 frames per second in the MPEG4 H.264 codec. (more…)

Sony’s new Cybershot model, the T77 is going to be launched sometime next month. It’s not the professional camera you are looking for, but it’s the perfect tool to keep around you. The T77 is said to have a 10 megapixel resolution, 4x optical zoom and a large touchscreen display on the back. The camera will be priced at 249.99GBP or roughly $500, depending where you’re going to get it.

Check out the video above. Ready to get rid of your old model to get your hands on the newest Cybershot?

Sony Ericsson C905 is one of the latest phones released by Sony and I must say I have been particularly waiting for this one. It’s the amazing camera that attracts me. I have always said that if you want pictures you should get a camera and use the phone specifically for what it was initially designed for. What was I thinking. Why not have a camera too? Especially such a good one. While Motorola still has to work on their Kodak 5 megapixels camera, Sony has done their job quite good on Sony Ericsson camera phones.

Sony Ericsson has finally made it official! The 8.1-megapixel shooter in the CyberShot lineup will see a release somewhere in the fourth quarter of this year as will the S302 in the Snapshot series, who decided to go public with the C905. Unlike the C905, the S302 will feature only a 2-megapixel camera, more suitable for the casual photographer than a pro. The little one will also have Bluetooth, USB support, 20MB of internal memory with Memory Stick Micro expansion. While the S302 decides to stick to just Crystal Blue and Thunder Gray, the C905 will come in colors of Night Black, Ice Silver, and Copper Gold.

There are no details on the pricing yet, but at the rate at which the C905 turned from a rumor to reality, I don’t think we’ll have to wait too long.

Remember that leaked cell phone from Sony Ericsson called the “Shiho” we brought you a few days ago? Well, if you still have doubts about it being real, these pictures from ePrice, a Taiwanese website will surely convince you. As you can see from the picture, the Cybershot C905 is a tad bit bigger than a Moto RAZR in its folded form, although I don’t know why they chose that cell phone to compare with. Not bad in size for something housing an eight-friggin-point-one-megapixel camera, GPS, and WiFi among other goodies, right? We’ll just have to tough it out until the fourth quarter of 2008 to see this baby out on the street.

Some great news for photo enthusiasts at last! Sony Ericsson now looks to one-up all those measly 5-megapixel cam phones out there with the new Cybershot C905, previously known by the codename Shiho, which rocks an 8.1 megapixel camera with all the usual photogoodies like autofocus, face recognition, image stabilization, red-eye reduction, Smart Contrast, and Xenon flash as well as photoflash to boot. Now that means some really awesome pictures in A3 sizes and videos in VGA quality. Time to ditch your digital camera I guess.

Sony Ericsson’s new phone, the C902, has made an appearance at the good ol’ FCC. The device is now approved, and should hit the world markets soon. The C902 is another phone in the Cybershot series and compatible with UMTS/HSDPA 2100 and tri-band GSM networks. The camera on this baby is pretty sophisticated, including autofocus, flash, face detection and video capabilities.

Transfering photos onto a PC is easy: you can do it over Bluetooth or USB. You can also print pictures by connecting the camera to a compatible printer. Other usual niceties include PhotoDJ and VideoDJ to manage/edit your photos and video clips. The C902 supports Memory Stick Micro (M2) memory card.

No word on the pricing, but the Sony Ericsson C902 Cybershot phone will be available — check back with us later.
