I read and re-read The Hobbit and the lord of the Rings trilogy as a teenager and fell in love with Aragorn. There were no pictures so my mind was free to create the man of my dreams, an Aragorn for whom I am still searching. I...

shelagh77 I can understand that the Trilogy takes a lot of time to read, there is just so much going on in the books, so much description. Yes,The Hobbit is much easier and almost a little self contained fairy tale. It was the first Tolkien book I read, and I was...

I have just been responding to a discussion regarding cameras since I am looking to buy a new one, and my friend has just chirruped up that I would do better to upgrade my mobile phone to one which takes photos, since these are...

shelagh77 That does seem to be the majority verdict on this one, I have to admit. I do wonder thought whether in the future the phone will reach a stage of excellence whereby the convenience of having just one device ie the phone, as opposed to camera and phone, to keep...

shelagh77 Yup, I was strapped for cash lol. I had a proper camera and it got trashed and I needed to get pics onto a web site very quickly so I bought a second hand phone and judging by the replies here I have been terrifically lucky in that the phone was very cheap but...

shelagh77 Well I don't know about mobile phones but I do have to be a Jill of all trades in that I have no idea whatsoever about photography and also have an eye defect, but I find that the people for whom I design web sites are, shall we say, a little slow in providing...

shelagh77 I don't understand the technology of photos, I just swear until I get the right effect on a photo I need for a web site :-) Most people in this discussion agree that the phone will never take over from the camera. You were very lucky with your phone! I paid...

shelagh77 Although this is the prevalent opinion I do think that one day the phone and camera option will be the only one, if only because humans mislay objects and most people will opt to have one item rather than multiple ones. I think the quality of the cell photos...

shelagh77 Wow! I am so lucky. I do not pay any fees for downloading, which is very lucky since I run a web site for someone else and all the photos to go onto the site are for them and not myself! I also managed to get some photographs taken of myself, and I have not...

shelagh77 You have lost me on the technology lol. I think I have been really, really lucky in the second hand, cheap phone I managed to buy because all the answers say the phone is not very good and so far it has done all I want it to do. Maybe I have a phone which...

shelagh77 They may not compare at the moment but the technology is improving every day and I think maybe some day soon the phone will have all the qualities required and will have the advantage that only one device is required, not two. Do you see that day coming?

shelagh77 I have been really lucky then since there is no charge regarding my photos whatsoever. I pay for about 300 texts/ minutes a month, which I rarely use since most of my communication is on line and nothing to do with my mobile phone supplier, and the photos come...

shelagh77 lol you are a member of the digital camera fan club then. I did not have any choice since my own camera, which I never even had the opportunity to try, was trashed by a pair of kittens! I did not have the funds for a new camera so I had to settle for a...

shelagh77 I have to admit to having no knowledge of cameras whatsoever. I was driven to get the mobile phone camera because I desperately needed to get some photos onto a web site and I had no funds for a camera. I would like to know more, but probably could not...

shelagh77 Surprise! I actually got into Mylot after all this time! I think I would like to have both but as you know my finances won't stretch to it. As a frequent visitor to my site you also see the photos I do manage to get onto that site. They are OK but not...

shelagh77 In the advent of the new apple phone do you still feel that a phone will never approach the finesse of a camera? I can't afford one of those phones either, but they do seem rather good.

shelagh77 Yup that was why I was driven to get the phone. I think I would like to try a camera if I ever got the funds but I have been lucky in that so far the cell has not let me down.
