LG-KC780 Slim 8 Megapixel Portrait Phone launched

LG-KC780 Slim 8 Megapixel Portrait Phone launched. As a follow-up to the last post LG KC780 8 MP Cameraphone confirmed, LG finally announced the launch of its LG-KC780, a slim 8 megapixel camera phone with special features that make it ideal for shooting portraits. LG-KC780 is a slim slider phone at just 13.9 mm thick, but manages to include a large 2.4-inch widescreen LCD.

Several of the LG-KC780’s smart technologies focus around the most expressive part of a person, the face. Face Detection automatically finds and focuses on people’s faces to allow photographers to take clearer pictures. Part of this feature relies on LG’s Smile Detection technology, which can recognize the angle of people’s mouths and adjust focus for faces.

LG-KC780 will go on sale in November 2008, in Europe, later expanding to CIS and Asia, including India, Thailand, Hong Kong and China. LG expects that the LG-KC780 will build on the leadership the company established with its multimillion selling Viewty and enhance its lineup of 8 megapixel camera phones, along with the recently released an 8 megapixel touch screen multimedia phone, LG Renoir (LG-KC910).
