The most important cell phone makers out there have already announced 12-megapixel camera phones or are on the verge of doing so. We already know that Samsung, LG or Sony Ericsson will offer their customers a 12-megapixel shooter and Nokia will not want to miss any of that action.
The Finnish company will launch a 12-megapixel camera phone by the end of the year. There’s no official news from Nokia about the new phone but the rumors say it will feature a Carl Zeiss lens capable of optical zoom. That optical zoom will definitely convince some people to pick this 12-megapixel camera phone over that the competition has to offer.

Alltell and LG are proud to announce the LG iX840 Tritan, a handset that might actually garner some interest in the not-so-popular carrier.
As you can see above, the LG Tritan features a sleep design along with a sliding QWERTY keyboard. Couple this with the phone’s 3″ touch-screen, full internet browser and 3G connectivity, a 3MP camera with auto-focus and optical zoom and you have yourself a very very nice device.
Alltel says that they will offer the Tritan for $99.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate. Any takers?

Canon unleashed two new models in its amateur-to-hobby-photographer PowerShot “A” series of digital cameras. The PowerShot A720 IS is an 8 megapixel digital camera while the PowerShot A650 IS offers a whopping 12.1 megapixel resolution, the highest yet in the A series. Having used the PowerShot A75 extensively, I am quite fond of these cameras. Easy to use, and great quality imaging are trademarks. Featuring the new DIGIC III image processor, both cameras offer faster start-up, faster autofocus and quicker shutter response times. Image quality is improved, while power consumption has been reduced - allowing the camera to extend battery life.
PowerShot A720 IS
The PowerShot A720 IS features Canon’s OIS - Optical Image Stabilization - technology for sharp and clear images and avoids blurring due to camera shake. The A720 can also capture VGA-resolution movies. With several scene modes and the usual simple control layout.
PowerShot A650 IS
The A650 IS offers 12.1 megapixel resolution and 6x optical zoom - taking it to the next level for hobby photographers. With 21 shooting modes and a 2.5″ preview LCD, the A650 offers an ergonomic grip. Put it in Canon’s WP-DC18 waterproof case and you can shoot images at depths up to 130 feet. Great for your next trip to the Ras Mohamed National Park.
Both cameras support SD-HC (high capacity SD) memory cards as well as MMC. With the new Genuine Face Detection technology, the camera can detect up to nine forward-looking human faces in a screen.
The PowerShot A720 IS carries a price tag of US $249.99, while the PowerShot A650 IS is priced at US $399.99. Both run on two AA batteries.
