A flash uses a very high voltage to cause a short 'flash' of intense light. The Way of getting this high volatage from a weak battery is to use a transformer. These tend to be big but are shrinking. Compare the chargers of your newer phone to the old ones. So i suppose they cant really shrink it enough to fit it in the phone body itself. There'd also have to be a pretty large capacitor too. Hence look at the size of the flash unit. Its not as simple as changing the LED's for a flash bulb as some people seem to think.....

We'll have to wait a while for these basic components to shrink.

Don't give me that Crap man, it was a fair point. Don't tell me a flash takes up too much power when you could turn it off. And don't tell me its too big when the flash accessory is so friggin small that could easily be incorporated.

@ BOOYAR
Use your brains, if they could've by now they would have done! Do you think everything in the flash accessory could fit into the space of the LED's?

Also i'm sick of people saying you can't slag phone cameras off and should just buy a digital camera if you want good pics. Camera phones stored being just gimmicks when they started putting million pixel lenses in. The only purpose of a million pixels is to take pictures off the phone and perhaps print. Therefor a flash is a must in my opinion or theres no point

I am using my brain. What i'm saying is look at the volume of the flash and the volume of the phone. Then imagine them added together. Of course the phone would be bigger but only slightly and seen as i would class it as small already it wouldn't matter. The power thing wouldn't be an issue cos it obviously can function using the phones battery as an attachment. That would mean a slightly bigger phone that functions better as its suppose to (i.e. Imaging) and no need for addons.

Do you have any idea of how a transformer works? Theres a vital size adn design it has to be to allow it to 'transform' the voltage. The size of prob means it wont have a space inside the phone without disrupting the entire design of the inside of the phone. A total rearangement. and the capacitor needed would have to be big. A series of smaller ones jsut wont give the 'power surge' needed for the flash.

@lpt100
exactly, thanks mate!
BOOYAR, or whatever, please, be considerate and understand the concept of flashes before you go around saying : put them in, without understanding how they work and why sony ericsson hasnt put them in!

Ok ok i'm sorry. I admit i don't now about flashes and just thought why have an add on why not just add it on. I'm not cussing s,e for not putting one in. I was actually asking why they wouldn't and couldn't understand why it would need so much power and space when the flash accessory is so small. Also why should i go and research on transformers before posting when several people have asked questions which have already been covered in this thread without been slagged off. Anyway forget it. Sorry again
