It looks like Sony started something with its QX-series lens cameras. Olympus, with some help from MIT, is jumping on the bandwagon at Photokina where they've debuted a Micro Four Thirds interchangeable lens module that is meant to connect up with your smartphone and tablet and be used much the same way the QX cameras are.
It's no secret that Sony will soon be announcing its new QX10 and QX100 lens cameras, which can be paired with Sony smartphones to form a serious -- and seriously flexible -- compact camera. A large set of product photos leaked yesterday, and now a promotion video of the lens cameras has leaked as well.
The video above is a short 1:39 ad that offers a peek at how the novel lenses will work and what features they'll pack.
Less than 24 hours before we're supposed to officially hear from Sony about the company's upcoming SmartShot lens cameras, a whole set of press images showing both models from every angle have leaked online.
Earlier this week, we got a close look at how Sony's upcoming "lens cameras" will look, thanks to a set of leaked press photos, and now we have a better idea of how they'll work, thanks to some leaked owner's manual pages.
