1080p Camera Sensor To Be Featured In The Next iPhone?

Engadget reports that OmniVision Technologies, Apple’s current supplier of CMOS (camera) sensors for iOS devices, has announced a 5-megapixel camera sensor that is able to record 1080p video.

For the iPhone, this new camera sensor would deliver video capabilities to 1080p from the current 720p. However, this is contrary to recent rumors/expectations which report the next iPhone as featuring an 8-megapixel camera.

If the next iPhone ends up not featuring an 8-megapixel camera and instead stays with 5-megapixels, but features 1080p video, is that a worthy upgrade for you?
