After cameraphones…

… this. According to PetaPixel the spec is: it runs Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, a 16 megapixel 1/2.3″ BSI CMOS sensor, a 21x f/2.8-5.9 23-480mm (35mm equiv.) lens, a 4.8-inch HD LCD screen, a minimal smartphone-esque design, a 1.4Ghz quad core processor, 8GB of internet storage, ISO of up to 3200, and 3G/Wi-Fi or 4G/Wi-Fi.

Doesn’t make calls but, hey, who uses a smartphone for voice anyway?

Dusk in Burgundy



Dusk in Burgundy, originally uploaded by jjn1.

Driving through Burgundy, we stopped for supper in a small village cafe and then sat talking, which meant that we set off later than planned for our hotel in Ancy-le-Franc. We went there using only deserted back roads, and suddenly came on this magical avenue as dusk was falling.

As usual, larger size better. It’s a good illustration of the light-gathering capabilities of the M9 sensor.
