The latest version of the PlayMemories Mobile - a free app for Android smartphones Sony and iOS (version 5.0) - greatly facilitates control of the cameras lenses. New user interface simplifies the process of recording, especially when controlling the camera with one hand. The process of framing the photos on the smartphone screen is more intuitive thanks to the grid lines, available in the latest version of the application. Right while shooting photos, transmitted to a smartphone, adds information about the place where they were made.

Sony ILCE-QX1

The camera is equipped with a matrix-type Exmor CMOS APS-C with a resolution of 20.1 megapixels, capable of capturing the smallest details, so the quality of the final images are not inferior to photographs taken on a much larger camera. Matrix combined with advanced Sony BIONZ X processor with enhanced noise reduction function in certain areas. Large matrix camera ILCE-QX1 also allows the user to create a professional effect on photos a soft, background blur ("bokeh").

Sony DSC-QX30

Smartphone owners know how difficult it is to take pictures with a large zoom - image often turns grainy and prevents camera shake to make a good shot close-up. Thanks to the lens with a 30x optical zoom and image stabilization technology, which effectively reduces blur, camera DSC-QX30 creates bright and clear pictures.

During shooting, users can use a smooth zoom in the range of focal lengths from 24 mm (wide angle) to 720 mm (telephoto); thus, the photographer is able to make a large full-length portrait, even if the person is 40 meters away. And if that seems not, use the digital zoom Clear Image Zoom, which magnifies the image 60 times, leaving the same number of pixels.

Yet some features are the AF tracking and burst mode at speeds up to 10 frames per second, allowing swift action to break into a series of clear shots. In addition, the touch of a button, you can record video in Full HD at 60 frames per second.

Both new camera lenses are compatible with the wearable remote controls Sony RM-LVR1 and RM-LVR2V Live View. They are worn on the wrist bracelets that allow you to view and select the images obtained with five cameras simultaneously.
