NTT DoCoMo today announced the release of the mova P505iS handset, which according to an investigation by Panasonic, the manufacturer of the handset, is the world's first camera phone equipped with auto focus. The P505iS is the second handset model released in the new 505iS series, a series of five PDC (2G) i-mode-capable mobile phones featuring mega-pixel cameras. The model's 1.28 mega-pixel CCD camera is equipped with auto-focus to improve the sharpness and clarity of photos.

The new handset is also equipped with a 65,536-color TFT main LCD that doubles as a viewfinder. The display-half of the body slides open (parallel to the lower body, similar to a jackknife), due to the display being located on the outside of the body. When open, the display can also be rotated 180 degrees to face the same direction as the camera.">
