While the Sony Smart Shot or Interchangeable Wireless Lens cameras for smartphones have yet to be officially named or announced, a leaked press release has confirmed many of the features and tech specs rumoured for the two available models. So far, these models remain the Sony QX100 and QX10 and according to the press release will be announced on 4 September at 4pm in London. Tech specs and features are mostly confirmed as the higher-end QX100 will get a 20.1MP Exmor R CMOS sensor but adds a wide aperture ZEISS Vario-Sonnar T lens with 3.6x optical zoom and Bionz image processor. The QX10 on the other hand will get an 18.2MP Exmore R sensor with 10x optical zoom Sony G lens with a weight of just 113g. The QX100 will be priced at $500 (RM1651) while the QX10 will be priced at $250 (RM826). The video certainly looks official and seems to indicate that the mounting system will be built-in while the wireless lens itself will connect via the Sony PlayMemories app (which is available for both iOS and Android). No news on release dates in Malaysia but we'll probably get that information by tomorrow.
