I am convinced there would be a decent market for a dumb phone with an iPhone quality camera, and the only 'smart' functionality it should have is getting pictures off the camera easily. I know several families who have transitioned to all dumbphones, and the only thing they report missing after a while is a having a decent camera on hand.

Another alternative is a camera with some sort of networking / offloading capability. In the pre-smartphone era I picked up a pocketable digital camera, and it remains the device on which I've shot my best images. Having a camera with you, and a small tripod (I've several that fit into a jacket pocket or bag) makes for excellent results. Losing the distractions of the phone is a plus.
