Sony DSC-QX10 10X Smart phone camera

Anyone try one of these out?  So, I'm wondering how does this do from a convenience of carrying around?  When not in use, do you just have this stuffed away in one of your pockets?


I have one of those olloclips which is a fun little lens system.  This Sony seems to raise the bar a bit.   www.precision-camera.com/sony-dsc-qx10-1...tphone-camera-black/

Seems much bulkier than I would want to carry around in my pocket.  Plus you are still working with a sensor that is in your phone or does this thing have it's own?

I know someone with one of these.  Surprisingly it does take decent photos.  I've held it, it's not bad.  I don't know if I would go running out to buy.  For me, it seems just a little too novelty for my taste.

I'm going to be at camera store this weekend, I'll see if they will let me try it out.  Seems like this would come in handy, I guess we'll see.

Does this print larger than your phone would normally do on its own?

I doubt it, it's still using the phones processor
