しかしスマホとセットで使わざるを得ないカメラ。
指摘のように面白いけど、本当にこのカメラというかレンズカメラを持ち歩くか？
これは結構疑問があるところだろう。
スマホとの一体化といかに薄くできるか、が今後のポイントではないか。
蛇腹のように折り畳み式にできれば、持ち歩きもつけっぱなしにできる。

Sony has confirmed plans to sell two stand-alone lenses that connect to smartphones by wi-fi, allowing them to take higher-quality photos.
The devices are compatible with Android and iOS handsets and mark the creation of a new product category.
The Japanese company announced the products alongside a new smartphone which features a 20.7 megapixel camera and a larger-than-normal image sensor.
The launches should help the firm challenge Nokia's top-end handset.
The Finnish company - which is in the process of being taken over by Microsoft - unveiled the Lumia 1020 in July. Reviews have suggested that it has the best smartphone camera on the market, but were critical of its price,
Sony told the BBC it would target its Z1 handset at a wider audience than what it called the Lumia 1020's "super-premium category".
It confirmed details of the devices at the Ifa consumer tech show in Berlin - much of the information had already leaked via tech news sites.
One analyst suggested the lenses in particular would struggle to find buyers.
"The concept is interesting, but when you think about using it, will users want to carry them around?" asked Francisco Jeronimo, mobile devices research manager at tech consultancy IDC.
"The problem is that for those wanting top-quality photographs, the experience of having a DSLR [digital single lens reflex] offers a better experience than a phone with an add-on camera.
"Meanwhile having the lens attached to a phone makes it feel quite bulky compared to a compact camera or stand-alone handset.
"If the lenses were priced under £100, then I could see photography geeks buying it, or operators bundling it with the phone, but these lenses will be quite expensive."
Sony itself acknowledged that it did not know how strong demand would be.
"Always we're discussing: 'How many pieces should we prepare,'" Yosuke Aoki, a digital imaging spokesman for the firm, told the BBC.
"We're waiting for after the Ifa announcement to see what the feedback will be to the models."
