Sony has announced the development of a "coin-sized" high definition camera module.

Designed for use in security and industry, the 8.3-megapixel effort is smaller than a £1coin measuring in at 9.5 x 7.1mm.

The "MCB1172" from Sony Europe's Image Sensing Solutions Division is capable of delivering 720p, 30fps video and includes movie stabilisation, face detection, autofocus and motion autofocus.

There's also a high sensitivity mode and a slow-mo function, delivering 120fps as well as the option of 16x zoom.

Now available for mass production, products with the module in will likely hit the business markets later this year.

This module sound as good as the one in Omnia HD and maybe even better... I wish to see this thing or something similar in atleast 1 of the 3 high-end's (as per rumors... one being the IDOU) SE is to release in the next 12 months...

Finger crossed...

Remember the good old days of the K750/W800/W900? How the competition were struggling to catch up with ? Today is struggling to catch up with the competition! While they have been neglecting video recording on their camphones other makers have come out with HD recording. Only now seems to be realising that consumers want their camphones also to shoot good videos - not only for MMS, which their current technology is only good for, but also for shooting the same kind of videos which you would use a camcorder for.

Wow!
I hope SE will make a slim candybar cyber-shot phone with this module.
Slim, candybar, with better built quality, metal casing like C902.
And please don't downgrade the spec of video recording.
