Camera phones are quickly taking over the world, and users are in need of a guide that shows them not only how to take great pictures but how to share them in different ways.

This book shows how camera phones are a breed apart from digital or film cameras. The book discusses the dos and donÕts of camera phone etiquette and privacy and legal concerns for camera phone users. The author expertly guides readers through the basics of camera phone photography to you take the sharpest pictures, navigate through the technology maze of sending and storing photos, and save money and time with this emerging technology. The book features numerous hands-on projects and tips and techniques to create art and have lots of fun with camera phones.
Peter G. Aitken says:
"This book is the result of my exploration of the camera phone phenomenon. You'll find a wide variety of material here, from the technical to the speculative. Most interesting in my opinion is the perception of a developing camera phone culture--a fundamental change in the way society does and thinks about certain things. The combination of having a camera that you carry with you everywhere, along with the ability to quickly send photos and text via a wireless network at any time
