Oppo has been long rumored to release a smart lens for smartphones very much like what Sony did with their QX10 and QX100 attachable lenses. Only rumors have been floating around till now, but today an image showing off the device has been leaked online.
The device has an Oppo branding on it, but that definitely wouldn’t be restricting usage to Oppo smartphones alone as we saw with the cross compatibility of the Sony lenses. The lens comes with a dedicated power button on it and it will also have its own set of options.
You will be able to transfer photos to your device through WiFi or NFC. Seeing the large number of user configurable options, this Smart Lens will be more of a standalone camera lens than as a companion shooter attaching itself to the back of a smartphone. Oppo is yet to announce the device and with no rumored flagships in the work, they could announce the Smart Lens without much fanfare.
