    but...
    most people won't need the performance of a DSLR. hell, most people don't need the performance of your average starter DSLR today.
    Sure most people don't need DSLR performance. But for those of us that want/need the performance of a particular lens, it's going to be DSLR for the foreseeable future.

    I predict that with Mirrorless camera technology improving very soon you will have a phone that has a connector ring and you can just attach a lense and have a full on DSLR quality camera to rival the high end cameras today.

    The only problem with that is you'll have to carry around a lens for it to work.

    I would love to bring my DSLR with me everywhere but it's a pain and I'd have to mind it and worry about it, so it's a hassle. It would be just as bad having to bring a lens around with me, meaning I'd just leave it at home and use the phone as a standard point and shot.

    If you're going to be attaching lenses to your camera phone it offers up no advantage over a DSLR.

    erm it is a phone.

    I see what you mean Paulie. The preview photo looks splendiferous, but when it's blown up to full size on a large monitor the differences are there for all to see.
