Then your use of the term "archaic" is not correct, as it is intended (when used correctly) to be a synonym to "antiquated", which, since shutters are currently constructed and commonly used, is not accurate. No big deal. I'll focus on the camera from now on (if you'll pardon the pun ).

I have a very good understanding of how these devices work, as I can see you do as well. I have already discussed (and you have reposted) how shutter speed relates to fps and how it affects the images. The point I was making is that 20 fps is not fast enough to hand-stabilize an image. You need more lke 30-60 fps for this to work, and without the camera taking mostly black images, I simply don't think th CCD used is sensitive enough for this. It's very common with these tiny CCDs used in camera phones.

As for me, I can take very adequate pictures in most circumstances with this phone already (considering its quality), just so long as I pay attention to the lighting conditions of my subject. Bright light = Good. Low light = bad. Use the flash and go close, even though it will tend to wash the colors out, it's better than a blurry picture.
