News & Reviews:   Sony QX1

The Sony QX10 and QX100 wireless lens cameras recently offered the ability to upgrade your smartphone's camera without having to replace your smartphone. This year, Sony may introduce the QX1 which offers smartphone and tablet users to use interchangeable Sony E-mount lenses. The QX1 appears to be a base that looks much like the Sony QX10 but instead of it's own zoom lens, offers up an e-mount. The QX1 will then act as the wireless transmitter, camera sensor and storage. Hopefully, Sony have ironed out the performance kinks and issues found in the earlier Sony QX10 and QX100 lens cameras this time around as Sony have also seen fit to include a pop-up flash for the Sony QX1. As usual, take this rumour with a pinch of salt, but the source was earlier correct about the Sony QX10 and QX100 so it should be quite an accurate rumour. No Malaysia release dates or pricing but it should be due for a reveal on 4 September 2014.
