Nikon Introduces Projector Camera
Nikon, known for its skills as a camera maker, is now in the pocket projector business. That seems to be the news coming from the introduction of the Nikon s100pj, a 12.1-megapixel digital camera that also includes a VGA projector.
Maybe the most surprising component in this gadget is neither the camera fans nor projector are slighted. Wired describes the camera as a “solid picture-taker” with a 2.7-inch screen, 5x zoom with optical and digital image stabilization. The projector can throw up a 40-inch image at up to 2 meters. A remote and stand are also provided when you want to show the neighborhood some family snaps.
The 5.5-ounce camera/projector is $429.95.
