Huh, learned something today!
As to the terrible amount of time it takes to pull a phone or camera out and take a picture, well, I could send you all the pictures off my wife's phone. I'm really grateful for cell phone cameras; without them, I'd be broke between film and processing, and we still wouldn't have any pictures to look at. It takes a certain amount of attention and skill to take a picture that's worth looking at, IME.
