Forums > Back > yongnuo launching a mirrorless camera
#1
yongnuo is joining the club, in what seems like an android mobile with a lens mount.
the idea seems awesome.
but it's a yongnuo so expect a poor MFT sensor with poor autofocus nevertheless the concept is great

Samsung tried that idea back in the days. Didn't work out.

It's not about a camera running on android but a true fully functional pocketable mobile phone that can take when needed SLR lenses

That makes no sense. "a pocketable mobile phone" with a lens mounted on it? Why? It does not make it pocketable, and if the phone is pocketable it will have a tiny sensor, and then different lenses make no sense. Just give it a folded(angle) zoom lens and be done with it.
But no, toni. It looks like a camera, with android running on it. Not like a mobile phone.

It almost looks as if they are using an EF mount.

Anyway, this will be doomed. Even if this is a real thing, it'll fail. You just can't create a camera with a tiny team.
The software obstacles would just kill them

If they set their targets correctly and don't act in an arrogant manner they can succeed, playing the low cost card, and not aiming to compete at least for the time being against the big players, but keeping for them a small niche, for software they can use already established platforms with partnerships rather than doing their own, DXO and their camera come to mind, they can "recycle" old technology, buying a four year old sensor isn't that expensive...
