Sony's QX1 lens style camera adds interchangeable lenses to your smartphone
At last year's IFA event, Sony introduced the QX10 and QX100 lens style cameras, that attach to a smartphone. This gives your handset the ability to take top-notch pictures. At this year's IFA show, Sony is expected to introduce the next generation QX lens style camera, called the ILCE-QX1 E-mount camera, or QX1 for short.
While last year's models carried a fixed lens, this year's QX1 has a big change. It will accept any of Sony's E-mount lenses that are used on the manufacturer's Alpha series of mirrorless cameras. That means that you can strap the QX1 to your smartphone, and change lenses as you see fit. The QX1 also appears to come with a pop-up flash. What will they think of next?
Speaking of 'next', a couple of the press photos of the QX1 show the camera strapped to the Sony Xperia Z3. Sony is expected to unwrap both on September 4 along with a plethora of other devices. Keep your eyes right here!
