Even the cheapest PAYG blower comes with a camera these days. But LG’s latest offering to combine snapping prowess with cellular skills is more a of a phone-camera than a camera-phone.

The L-03C, which has just been unveiled over in Japan, rocks traditional point and shoot looks, with a phone sitting round the back where you’d normally find a viewfinder.

It rocks some half-decent specs too, with a 3x optical zoom (no naff digital effort here), a 12 megapixel sensor and Pentax 1:3.6-5.5 lens too. Phone wise, you’re looking at Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G.

Chuck in HD video and this is definitely one to get off kilter gadget fans going. Sadly though, the L-03C is only up for grabs on Japan’s DoCoMo network, so there’s no chance us British gadget fanatics will get to play nice without heading East.
