Camera/phone ?

[jackarmy]

Ok, been mulling around the pros and cons of both.
I want a decent camera, nothing special, just good enough to post and print photos but i also need /want a decent mobile .

so, can anyone reccomend a phone that does the job, dont want to spend a fortune here, £100 tops, just want to phone and take pics, it doesnt have to do my washing, cook me food, do the dishes and give me a massage , well maybe the latter , so basically the cheaper the better, camera more important.

So, reccomendations please and thanks in a advance.

We have a mobile with big buttons that talks to you when you press a number and does all texts in capitals, takes no photo's and won't become a MP3 player anythime soon. Our camera in the lap top held at precarious angles with the hope of getting the image you want.

I suppose this don't help much does it?

Not really but its an answer so thank you Lumpy

Not good asking me, jack. Everyone here knows I can't use a mobile phone - let alone a camera on a phone

Well, I can't recommend a specific phone but my simple smartphone does everything you want so I'm guessing any reasonable one will do the job. What I have is an android, I use Dropbox. I take a pic on the phone, and it's automatically uploaded so I have it on the phone, tablet and laptop and it's saved on the cloud so I can access it from anywhere. Way to go.

I use iPhone and iPad and the photos are good and all I need because i always carry my phone with and take a photo when I want. I don't carry a camera all the time therefore would miss something. Have a look at Martin Lewis moneysavingexpect.com he has tips about cheap phone and contracts.

Windows phones have a really good camera, and they can auto-upload pictures to your cloud profile (via One-Drive).

I have a Nokia lumia 820 which serves me pretty well

Thanks for the replies all and i know exactly what you mean VC but i really want a camera so i thought why not a combo although itll probably take me forever to learn how to use it .

What is it that you're after if it isn't a smartphone? I'm confused

You can get some bargain second hand phones on Gumtree that where I got my iPhone from.

My sister wanted a phone/camera set up for her holidays. So she went to her phone shop and asked them about the cameras and they actually got several out for her to try.
My OH says look for one with mega pixels don't get a cheapo one with VGA as these are the old style cameras and the pics wont look very clear.
