LG and Schneider-Kreuznach for better cameraphones

by Omar McFarlane, posted Nov 9th 2006 at 7:48AM

Angelina's got Brad, Nokia's N90 has Carl Zeiss, and now LG has Schneider-Kreuznach. After working together on the Shine, LG has decidedly joined forces with the German lens manufacturer to provide better optics for their cellphones. Their previous collaboration resulted in a very lustworthy and capable cameraphone, so we're hoping it only gets better from here. With the hopefully better image quality in the cards from yet another high profile manufacturer, perhaps we're another step closer to starting to leave those full-size cameras at home.

Now if only someone would get the Shine and bring it to the US, preferably Helio or Sprint. Better yet, make a GSM version.
