A Nokia N90 Camera Phone With Respectable Optics
“The Nokia N90 is a two-megapixel camera phone with a twist. The latest in Nokia’s N-series of multimedia phones, the N90 has camera optics that put a standard point-and-shoot to shame, and it packs a panoply of features into an oddly shaped package.
The N90’s camera, which uses Carl Zeiss optics, is hidden in a lump that protrudes from the back of the open phone. The camera module is hinged, allowing its 2.1-inch color screen to be used as viewfinder for videos and still photos. The camera can even flip around for easy self-portraits or, more ambitiously, video-chat conferences. The phone has a slot for MMC flash memory to store more snaps, along with a 1.5-inch external color screen and support for Bluetooth wireless networking.”
