Nokia 5700 Xpress Music
AllAboutSymbian reviews the Nokia 5700 XpressMusic and writes, "The 5700 has a 2 megapixel camera which can be activated by twisting the keypad so the camera faces away or towards you. The screen automatically goes into horizontal mode, and pictures are taken by pressing the white Camera/Play button in the centre of the playback controls. The Forward and Back controls zoom in and out using the digital zoom facility. The camera includes a flash. I found using the playback controls useful, partly because the large Camera/Play button was easy to activate, but mainly because in twisted mode it was easier to hold the phone steady with two hands. Alternatively, if you prefer taking pictures with one hand, the 5700's main body is light enough (and the keypad joint is sturdy enough) to let you hold the phone by the keypad alone."
