Remember Frances? That Cyber-shot with a 5MP camera and a slider form factor? Well, according to SEMC blog, it’s going to be announced at MWC (as is the C901 …and some other phones). So, the C903 is basically a 5MP version of the C905 sans Wi-Fi and with a rather intriguing new desgn. All of the cyber-shot goodies are there, including Smile Shutter, BestPic, Face Detection, an active lens cover and aGPS for geotagging. Did I mention the 2.4″ screen?
15th February’s the day. :)

UPDATE: A picture of the rumoured backside can be found after the break.

Sony Ericsson’s upcoming Cyber-shot line to sport Smile Shutter

Friday, December 12th, 2008

It’s been rumoured for a while that Sony’s ‘Smile Shutter’ technology will be implemented in Sony Ericsson’s future line of European Cyber-shot phones. Among these are three phones, codenamed Filippa, Frances and Kate.

Now, SEMC Blog has a bit of an update on the technology as well as a logo of it. As most of you had already guessed by now, Smile Shutter will automatically take a picture of people in focus when they smile. You can override the Smile Shutter function by pressing the shutter key a second time, if that’s what you want.

Contrary to what SEMC Blog states, Smile Shutter is not a new feature to Cyber-shot devices though, as the Japanese 5.11-megapixel W61S has had this feature since its announcement almost a year ago. The aforementioned phones will however be the first Cyber-shot branded handsets to feature it in Europe.
