Sony Ericsson today announces a new addition to its award winning mobile imaging portfolio with the K300 camera phone. Using a mobile phone to shoot and share pictures and video will now become available to many more people as this entry level camera phone provides mobile video and picture messaging and is extremely easy to use, so even users new to the idea can share images with their friends and family in just a few clicks. Such affordable simplicity, together with dual front design, classic Sony Ericsson styling and a choice of colours make the K300 the ideal first step imaging phone.
"Now everyone can enjoy picture and video messaging with a phone that is very simple to use," says Jan Wäreby, Corporate Executive, Vice President and Head of Sales and Marketing of Sony Ericsson. “The K300 has many functions previously only seen in higher end phones so it's perfect for capturing and sharing special moments, delivers fast and smooth entertainment applications and is also a highly useful work tool."
The camera is used horizontally, allowing shots to be stable and well framed, and 4x digital zoom gives great results at a distance. Thanks to QuickShare™ it is possible to send video, picture and text messages in just a few clicks. The K300 doubles up as a video and photo album as its 12MB on-board memory will store a sizeable collection of 120 10-second video clips or 500 VGA images. The 65K colour screen makes for good quality viewing of stills and footage.
Enterprises looking for a phone for their employees will find the K300 appealing as its business applications such as built-in speaker phone, PC synchronisation and personal information management make it the ideal affordable, robust work tool. Very useful accessories include Car Hands Free or, for the first time at this price level the QuickInstall Car Kit.

The Sony Ericsson K750, announced today, is a 2 Megapixel imaging phone that captures the sharpest, clearest pictures with superb colour reproduction for printing, sharing and viewing. This phone also delivers fast, open connectivity and contains a generous memory to make it simple for users to store and share their favourite images. Such imaging excellence combined with a rich suite of business, entertainment and communication features, makes the K750 the ideal companion for a busy working and social life.
"Nowadays 65% of Sony Ericsson's consumers are choosing phones with cameras in them, which shows that there is significant demand for phones to be used as imaging tools," says Jan Wäreby, Corporate Executive, Vice President and Head of Sales and Marketing of Sony Ericsson. "What's more we are successfully applying Sony's imaging expertise to the development of camera phones, a key example of this being the S700, which is receiving awards for its imaging capabilities time after time. The K750 builds on this, and given the enthusiastic response to our imaging products we have already received from the market, we fully expect it to be an outright winner."
Following on from the success of last year's S700, Sony Ericsson has once again built upon the colossal imaging know-how of its parent company Sony Corporation. The K750 is rich with features that are now common in stand alone digital cameras but new to mobile phones, such as Autofocus, 4x digital zoom, red eye reduction and an intuitive user interface. The camera operates horizontally for stable, well framed shots. If used with the Sony Ericsson PhoneFlash MXE-60 it is possible to take pictures in the dark from several meters away and it also helps reduc...
