for W810 (and maybe W800) there was no revision in cam module (no matter of CID version). unlucky was K750 because various revisions killed initial high quality. first series of K750 with CID49 have old (HQ) cam module
Anybody else remember the original press release by SonyEricsson promising that a revision of the K750i would ship with an CCD sensor?!! Just because ppl that enjoyed the S700i so much complained that the K750i wouldn't have it ... boy where they wrong that the K750i would under perform.

true! Of course imagine the K750 2MP, AF combined with S700 grain free CCD! Now that would have been a killer combo
But still overall I'd rather a K750 over S700

^^ If SE had revised K750 sensor to CCD probably today we have no poor K850 camera quality. as SE won't have the guts to incorporate a weaker CMOS sensor on their successors since people will be so used to it's digicam quality. imagine what will be N95/N82/G800/G810/Viewty's stand when this revision happened long long ago

yes, what a missed opportunity!
but I guess we woulda paid more for CCD. Remember S700 was like $1000 compared to the $800 of the K700

^^ Yes max but that was what SE fans are longing since S700.although today i wouldn't think a single CCD raises price so much. given also the fact that there are already quite many phones that utilizes CCD and with Sony's development/integration of 12megapixel CCD in their cybershot digicams it will surely lower the cost for integrating 5/6megapixel sensors to phone.

I tend to agree, though other factors such as more battery consumption, larger size etc also contribute to cost and impracticality.
Still, it would be nice. CCD still has less noise problems than CMOS, though the gap is getting narrower.

Not likely back then! CCD modules where VERY VERY expensive, and very few manufacturers could make them for use on cellphones. This wasn't 2006 ... it was 2003/2! Hardly ANY cam phones existed EVEN in Japan. Only they did have CCD but remember the weight and SIZE of the S700!? Yeah I didn't want that in my K750i. That battery was also HUGE in the S700 because of power consumption. The S710i was much more frugal but still not pleasant for 1/2 wk usuage. I'm glad no CCD. CMOS is much cheaper and just about equal now.
Many of you don't realize that even SONY uses CMOS in HD 1080p HDD Camcorders! And Digital Cameras as well. So CMOS is top quality. But without Glass/Quartz lenses, its not enough. Now with VarioPtics liquid lense technology and Seiko's manufacturing at mass speeds, maybe we'll see these in SE's future phones by next year??

Why didn't anybody mention D750, T-mo version of K750??
