the benefits of a mobile phone with camera?

[Pauline]

I've used it for such things as:

Images of shelf edge tickets when shopping to price compare

Snapshot of a letterhead showing an address.

Snapshot of a appliance (cooker) serial number hat I couldn't otherwise read.

Snapshot of an item that I'm trying to find a duplicate of (picture worth 1000 words)...

Other scenarios:
Taking photos after a vehicle accident


It's not so much that you have a camera; it's that it's always with you and (most) of the time it's fully charged and ready to use. The local "Brown Owl" used her phone whenever she had forgotten to bring her camera when the Guides went out/did stuff at meetings. It's not a replacement, but it's a good substitute at a pinch.
