現在的低價相機，要怎麼賣才有生路？顯然 Avatar Digital Binocular Sport 相機給了一個示範。會不會成功，個人不知道。但一台有著2.5吋的兩百萬像素相機，要價 $128 美元，約港幣 $1,000 元，直觀來說，是很難賣得出去的。

不過，在這種相機上面裝個大砲，可能又不一樣了，這款具備了 21 倍光學變焦以及 40 倍數位變焦能力。影像品質會糟到什麼程度，個人是不敢想像。不過就趣味的角度而言，倒是滿不錯的。用來偷拍 ... 可能也是一種用途吧。比較令人意外的是，還內建 1GB，如果純就拍照用途來說的話，1GB 相當夠用了。

嗯，還可以看聽音樂、看電子書啥的，真是太厲害了 ~ 原來是多媒體相機呀!
