Sony is giving one more reason for photographers to take their smartphones seriously when it comes to taking pictures.
The Japanese electronics giant is launching two “lens-cameras” that have built-in sensors and Bionz processors, as well as Wifi and NFC, and an SD card slot.
“For the first time you can shoot top quality images with your smartphone. Forget these iPhone or Android lens kits!” said SonyAlphaRumors.com, which posted images of the new devices.
But the lenses won’t have screens or camera controls, and can be attached magnetically to the smartphone, from which they can be controlled, it added.
The two lenses, DSC-QX10 and DSC-QX100, can be controlled via a smartphone or tablet via WiFi or NFC. Initially, they work on iOS and Android.
“This is the first step in a completely new way of doing photography! If that concept will be successful is hard to say now. But chapeau Sony for trying to do something completely new!” the site said. — VC, GMA News
