However, do not underestimate the size because it can take a picture of 2 megapixels and can record video. Namely the manufacturer Hammacher Schlemmer set price for mini gadget at U.S. $ 99.95.
Fred Berns, general manager of the factory, based in New York, said, "This is an exceptional device and we expect him to be popular on the market." The resulting image from the camera shots are JPEG format with a resolution of 1600 x 1200.

It's even equipped with autofocus. Just as the cameras 'normal', he can be connected to a computer via a USB cable.
It's a real camera though. It takes 1,600x1,200 JPEG stills and 640x480 30-frames-per-second AVI video, which it stores on a microSD card. It comes with a 2GB card. It also includes a USB cable so you can view images and video on a Windows computer. The camera's battery lasts 30 minutes and charges in an hour via the USB cable.
Any claim to have the world's smallest anything should be taken with a large grain of salt. This claim is close, though. The Chobi Mini Digital Camera can also make a convincing case for the smallest camera. Measuring 1.7 inches by 1.1 inches by less than half an inch, the Chobi Mini is smaller by volume than the Hammacher Schlemmer camera. But the Hammacher Schlemmer camera's nearly cubic shape gives it a psychological advantage. It just seems smaller.

| The Chobi Mini Digital Camera, small screen less One Records on your microSD card with up to 32GB, 2-megapixel resolution, or 30 fps non-HD video capture. But this is really unusual (but funny) DSLR-style camera. Is already available in Japan for ¥ 9,800 (Picture from: http://gadgetmug.com/) |
In practical terms, if I were to spring for one of these Lilliputian cameras I would lean toward the Chobi Mini. The rectangular shape makes it easier to hold, and the Chobi Mini takes higher-resolution stills and video.
