Attachable Lens-Style Cameras

Ohh snap, Sony just announced a snazzy pair of smart lens-style cameras & I’m totally sporting some techy-wood. They’re essentially cameras without bodies, which can then be attached to your smart phone. So, it doesn’t enhance your phone’s camera, it pretty much replaces it.

“With a distinct lens-style shape, the new cameras utilize the latest version of Sony’s PlayMemories Mobile™ application (available for iOS™ and Android™ devices, version 3.1 or higher required) to connect wirelessly to a smartphone, converting the bright, large LCD screen of the phone into a real-time viewfinder with the ability to release the shutter, start/stop movie recordings, and adjust common photographic settings like shooting mode, zoom, Auto Focus area and more.” – Sony Press Release

Being the complete & total consumer whore that I am… I totally want one. I already have a compact point & shoot, but like most cheap cams – the lens & the pics they produce are uninspiring. I’ll try to swing by the Sony Store at the Forum Shops at some point in time and check it them out for myself.

 

Just look at how much fun this extremely chummy hipster-looking dude is having with his. Who wouldn’t want to have that much fun, good thing Sony created them lens-style cameras.
