The Apple iCam is
a concept camera by Italian designer Antonio
DeRosa that imagines a future where
cameras are modular and powered by smartphones. Smartphones have already
invaded the compact camera market in recent years, but their small lenses and
sensors keep them from being seen as suitable alternatives to more advanced
cameras. The iCam camera changes that by adding a large sensor and
interchangeable lens system to the mix. Simply attach your iPhone 5 to the case
and you’ll have yourself a mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with a huge
LCD screen, fast processor, internet connectivity, and countless photo apps!
A
creation of ADR Studio, this device was shown to us by Antonio de Rosa, creator
of many interesting Apple concepts. The iCam comes with an unibody aluminum
design, interchangeable Apple lenses, an iMount mounting system and a front
touchscreen for self portraits. There’s also an LED flash on board, a front
pico projector and a SD UHS-i slot. Siri compatibility is also here, as well as
a motion sensor and ISO range from 100 to 3200, extendable to 6400.
The Apple
camera concept is capable of full HD 60 fps capture, using a 10.1 megapixel
sensor and its specs most likely include Bluetooth and WiFi as well. I suppose
that the time between shots is almost non-existent, since even the iPhone 4S
beat records and delivered an incredibly fast photo shooting experience. Would
you buy this camera? What price range it would fit?
