More threats to the wedding photographer...

..apparently soon cell phones will be competing

I'm not worried.

I can already takes pics of a wedding with my cell phone.

Now, if they are any good, that's a different story.

be interesting to see if this technology will actually improve the sensors performance. If it is as big of an increase as they say then it is only a matter of time before it finds its way into dSLR cameras.

Sweet. Super high-quality sensor looking through a crappy, plastic, scratched up lens.

FAIL.

I believe that would be an EPIC FAIL....

It was difficult to find but my cell phone doesn't have a camera! As a phone it works well. Try buying one.

Isn't the resolution of a lens inversely proportional to the aperture? So even if they put a decent lens in a cell phone, the image quality would still be, shall we say, enlargement-challenged?

A droplet bead of water may be a better lens than those on cell phones.
I wonder how one can achieve wedding bokeh on a scratched plastic cell phone lens...
The higher the sensitivity and resolution of a sensor, the more unforgiving will it be on the optical glass.

On a side note...
I went to a U2 concert a while ago. Before the band came in, the speakers boomed: "Please turn off all cell phones. Absolutely no photography allowed on this concert. Thank you."
As soon as the lights dimmed and the band made an entry, the whole dark jampacked stadium burst with flashes more intense than a 4th of July sparkler...
Cell phones FTW!
