At this year’s PMA a new breed of cameras were introduced. The micro four-thirds standard or hybrid camera, is the catch phrase being thrown around, to describe a camera which has an interchangeable lens supporting point-and-shoot cameras. It lacks a mirror box, which defines an SLR. So it directly images on the sensor. What remains a mystery, would be if these new, but odd technical showpieces will find a market. Panasonic, Olympus and Samsung have all decided to throw their hats into uncharted waters.
