We put some of the features of Sony Ericsson’s latest camera phone through their paces in a series of photographic tasks on technology
expert David Phelan’s walk
to work along the South Bank
Our technology expert, David Phelan, strolls to work along London’s South Bank, taking in some of the capital’s most iconic attractions along the way, including the Houses of Parliament, County Hall – and its Star Wars exhibition – and the London Eye. The phone used to capture his journey, the new Sony Ericsson K850i, has a 5-megapixel camera and lots of clever photographic functions, such as red-eye reduction, video and image stabiliser, to avoid blurriness caused by slight hand movements, and BestPic, which takes nine pictures a second so you can choose the best one.
