I don't think so.
I believe that W910 is able to record only in 15fps.
My advice is to get the K850. I mean, W910 has nothing more than your standard 2MP W580 sensor, without AF or flash.

its such a hard decision,
its the looks really that is putting me off the k850i, it just looks cheap and nasty compared to the w910i. It really shows finger prints up bad and the fact that i am reading alot of stuff on here at the moment about bugs/firmware issues etc on the phone is a worry
on the other hand i have an ipod touch so do i really need a walkman phone.

i just dont think the finish of the phone is in the same league as the w910i, theres too much of the black glossy surface. They should have gone more with the black rubberised stuff like on the k810i, it gives the handset a totaly different feel and look.
just my opinion

TBH , ive holded the keypad of K850 and it feels a little too cheap IMO ...
The build quality , looks , and style , of the W910 is better , No Doubt !

In the past, the 'K' phones have done everything that the 'W' phones have, except that the W phones have often been more expensive due to their Walkman branding.
When I had my K750i I didn't like the media player because it sucked at organising songs, which is a real pain if you have a few hundred on a large memory card. I tried out the W800, which of course, was exactly the same as the K750 except for the media player software and casing.
But, now the K series phones have got pretty much the same media player software as the W series, and they are also still very similar, only difference is the walkman branding.
I'd say go for the K850i, because it has the best camera and also you can use the media player in the exact same way as W series phones. W series I feel is just for people to boast that they have a walkman cellphone
But, I've fooled quite a few people with my new K800i, sporting a Walkman theme
I tell them it's a Sony, they like it, then I say it's a cybershot 3.2MP, they like it even more, and then I say it's also a Walkman MP3 player with 4GB of space and show them the theme and UI. They like it so much they practically want to have sex with my phone
So, overall, go for the K850i as it is the most superior and you get pretty much everything from the W series except official walkman branding.

the more and more i think about this i really dont think the camera alone is going to be reason enough for me to choose the k850i over the w910i
my thoughts so far are w910i has better design, better build quality
k850i has better camera. it seems to have several software/firmware issues (as talked alot about on here)
of course when i have both handsets in my hands tomorrow my opinions could completly change.
I could then be in the position (if i rule out the k850i) of choosing between w910i and nokia 6500 slide.
If i am honest, of all the phones, style wise and build wise i would go with the 6500. This could be the compramise between them all. Great build, feels good in the hand, 3.2mp auto-focus camera, not sure what the media player is like though, but then its symbian which means there are always loads of third party apps that you can add but that also means it can be a little slow in its opperation.
wish i could have the 6500 with me tomorrow also to play with for a day or so and then i could be sure about my choice between the 3 of them.
