Bluetooth-enabled digital camera
1st April 2003 by Simon
I’m been looking for a Bluetooth-enabled digital camera for a while now. Mobile phone-mounted cameras always seem like a big compromise, which is natural as they’re designed to be as compact as possible to fit into pockets and therefore lens quality is compromised.
Never slow to innovate, Sony announced one in September last year and it’s now available to buy, making it the first I think. The Cybershot DSC-FX77 has a healthy set of features including a Carl Zeiss lens, 4Mpx resolution and a one second power-up time.
The Bluetooth support is Basic Imaging Profile (BIP) [spec PDF] but I’m not clear if you can take a 4Mpx photo and the directly sent it from the camera, via your mobile to some online storage without the image resolution being reduced. I’d love to know.
Watch out, there’s a version without the X in the model number that doesn’t have the Bluetooth.
