Instead of expensive mobile phone.

Panasonic DMC-XS 1 EC-K (16.6 megapixels, 5-x opt. Zoom (2.7 inch display)) (Camera)

Customer Review

After my 5 year old cell phone no longer wanted I had really decided me in this Gelegheit now but a good phone with corresponding Photo ability to buy.

Only, even the really expensive cell phones have only a tiny lens and only fixed focal length.
After some back and forth, I then decided an inexpensive and rather small cell phone (Samsung Galaxy Young 2) and the smallest possible camera for (almost) everywhere mithinnehmen to buy the Panasonic XS1.
One must of such a small device do not expect miracles, but it has an equivalent focal length of 24-120 mm and the intensity begins on the wide-angle side with 2.8. This can not phone.
Of course you can not compare it to a larger and more compact fähigern this little device (slightly thicker than the Samsung mobile phone but smaller in length and width) but it is in my opinion much better than any cell phone.

The 16 megapixels are unnecessary, which I converted to 10 megapixels. Nor is it easy to keep quiet the little camera in low light and slow shutter speeds. This, however, applies to all small compact and also on mobile phones.
(Wonder why ohnhin Camera manufacturer is not a short time delay of say 0,1 - 0,2 sec offer)

But as I said for me is an affordable mobile phone (the other properties of the phones I do not need anyway) and the small XS1 the most suitable compromise. Both together, incidentally, cost less than 200 euros. Then there are indeed two appliances to take home but the XS1 is after all a very small but really a camera.
