From the leaks we’ve seen so far there is a very strong possibility that Sony will be launching new ‘lens-camera’ attachments designed to be used with smartphones. We’ve already seen what appear to look like official press images of the lenses and now SonyAlphaRumors has leaked some snippets from the manuals of each lens.
There are two lenses, the Sony DSC-QX10 and Sony DSC-QX100. The QX10 is likely to be the cheaper lens with 1/2.3-inch 18MP camera sensor and f/3.3-5.9 lens. The more expensive QX100 has the same sensor and Zeiss lens as the RX100MII and features manual ring control. Click through for a schematic of both lenses.
