  • General
    • Product Name: DSC-QX10 18.2-Megapixel Attachable Lens-Style Camera for Most iOS and Android Mobile Phones
    • Brand: Sony
    • Model Number: DSCQX10/W
    • Color: White
    • Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
  • Imaging
    • Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
    • Image Resolution (Display): 4896 x 3672 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
    • Digital Zoom: None (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
    • Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
    • Image File Format(s): JPEG, Other (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
  • Focus
    • Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
  • Exposure Control
    • Shutter Speeds: iAuto: 4 - 1/600 sec.; Program Auto: 1 - 1/1600 sec. (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
    • Minimum Aperture: 3.3 f/ (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
    • Maximum Aperture: 5.9 f/ (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
    • Burst Mode: false (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
    • Self Timer: true
    • Shooting Modes: None (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
    • Panorama Mode: false
    • White Balance Modes: Auto, daylight, shade, cloudy, fluorescent 0, 1 and 2, incandescent (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
  • Flash
    • Integrated Flash: false
  • Display
    • Display Type: Other
    • Touch Screen: false (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
  • Compatibility
    • Tripod/Monopod Mountable: Yes (A support function that allows the device to be mounted to monopods and tripods for leveling and stability.)
    • Memory Card Compatibility: microSDXC, Memory Stick Micro, microSD, microSDHC (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
  • Features
    • Face Detection: true (A function that automatically detects human faces and then sets focus and appropriate exposure to capture them.)
    • Integrated GPS: No
    • Records Audio: true
  • Connectivity
    • PictBridge Enabled: false (PictBridge allows digital cameras, camcorders and other image capture devices to connect and print directly to photo printers and other output devices without using a computer.)
  • Included
    • Batteries Included: true (Indicates whether the product comes with the required batteries for its operation.)
    • Memory Card Included: false (Indicates whether a memory card is included.)
  • Dimensions
    • Product Height: 2.5 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 2.5 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)

Q: Using with iPhone 5c. When held horizontally, cannot get full screen image. Any way to deal with this?

A: Hi Puzzled, If I've understood you correctly, you can change the aspect ratio of the camera when shooting a still image. If you need further technical assistance, please contact us at [email protected] with your product information and some screenshots of the issue so we can better assist you. Regards, Dave

Q: Hi, if my Camara is not working, would this work?

A: Yes, this would work as it uses a separate sensor and can put the image to the standard library. This camera "connects" via wireless, so you would have to have a working wifi in order to pair the lens to the device.

Q: Is it compatible with iPhone 5s?

A: Hi Shutterbug, the DSCQX10 is compatible with iPhone 5S. Best regards, Zander

Q: Will this work w/iPhone 6 S plus?

A: It works great on the iPhone 6S. IPhone 6S plus should not have any problems.

Q: Is this compatible with the Samsung HTC phone?

A: No working experience with that combination. Early reviews on youtube indicate long shutter lag and dropped connections from phone. I didn't experience either. I think those problems have been resolved. Works great with my iPhone like my NEX 6. Best Buy has a great and easy return policy I have found.

Q: Does this camera work on Android Smartphone

A: I have used it on my LG G4 and there were some delay in taking pictures. Not as smoothly as used on iPhone 6S. It could be too many apps running on the background of my LG G4.

Q: Is this camera compatible with the iPhone 6?

A: yes it is compatible with the new iphone but it is slow in tracking son may not be the best for action shots
