Camera Phones Photography

There is the occasional anecdote of camera phones linked to industrial espionage and the activities of paparazzi, as well as some hacking into wireless operators' network.
Camera phones have also been used to discreetly take photographs in museums, performance halls, and other places where photography is prohibited. However, as sharing can be instantaneous, even if the action is discovered, it is too late, as the image is already out of reach, unlike a photo taken by a digital camera that only stores images locally for later transfer.
In Ireland the annual "RTE 60 second short award" was won by 15 year old Laura Gaynor who made her winning cartoon,"Piece of Cake" on her Sony Ericsson C510 camera phone.
