Hybrid Camera-Smartphones

The Sony QX10 and QX100 Takes High-Quality Photos and Shares Instantly

— September 6, 2013 — Tech
Thanks to Sony, your smartphone can now take the clearest, highest-quality images! With the Sony QX10 and QX100 lenses that clip onto your smartphone, you can take HD selfies and foodie pics. It doesn’t matter what phone you have either—iPhone or Android, this device is made to work with all smartphones.

Phones like the Samsung Galaxy S4 claim to have the best quality pixels, but they still can’t touch a Nikon or Canon lens; however, the great thing about smartphones is their ability to load images to your social network right away. That’s why this device is so great. The lenses connect to your phone through WiFi or NFC, so you can capture all those fun nights at the cottage or your restaurant food in the city and share them in seconds.
Trend Themes
1. Hybrid Camera-smartphone Technology - Technology companies can develop more hybrid camera-smartphones solutions that combine high-quality image-taking prowess with the instant sharing ability of smartphones.
2. Improvement of Lens Adaptors - Camera lens makers can focus their resources on producing more lens adapters that can fit onto various smartphones, making it easier for users to interchange.
3. Collaborations with Camera Lens Firms - Smartphone manufacturers can collaborate with camera lens companies to design lenses that are specially designed to fit on particular smartphones, thus enhancing their image-taking capabilities.
Industry Implications
1. Technology - Technology companies can work on integrating more powerful camera capabilities into smartphones, and also use sensors to improve image quality.
2. Photography Equipment Manufacture - Lens makers can design more lenses specifically to meet the demands of hybrid camera-smartphone technology.
3. Mobile Phone Production - Mobile phone manufactures can invest in research to improve high-resolution image quality in smartphones while also making them sleek and user friendly.
