NOMOBILE.RU at MWC-2010. Third day

On the third day, the exhibition slowly began to fade. Many journalists collected equipment and flew home - to disassemble tons of accumulated material. After yesterday's climax - the MWC-2010 Awards, which ended in an enchanting tusa with the performance of the group Duran Duran - not everyone was able to wake up with a fresh head in the morning. But Nikolay Turubar did it, and he devoted the third day to measured walks around Congress.

New 1/4 "CMOS-matrix from OmniVision - OV5647 were found. Mass production will begin in the summer. According to manufacturers, the main advantage of the sensor is that it will allow you to take photos in RAW format. favorite daughter, and then processing it in Photoshop ... this format is more likely for those who are more or less pumped in the photo theme and does not shoot on a mobile phone. But, nevertheless, a pleasant fact. In addition, the sensors support video shooting in FullHD (30 frames / s) and in normal HD (60 frames / c). Further, apparently, only 3D.



Then there was an interview with the CEO of Jabra - Viggo Olsen. We talked about the accessories market and the changes that occurred on it.
