Experience photography for the smartphone age. With a simple connection, a wireless, smart lens gives your phone a powerful 10x optical zoom and smooth image stabilisation. It takes photos you never thought possible with your phone.

Get connected with any smartphone
Transform any smartphone into a high-performance camera. Simply mount a smart lens to a phone and start shooting. Your smartphone becomes the camera body. Use the touchscreen to shoot and retouch images. Upload photos and HD videos on Facebook® or store them online.

Never be separated by distance
Have some fun with a smart lens. Make a connection – touch the lens against an NFC smartphone for the wireless freedom to shoot angles you couldn’t before. Haven’t got an NFC phone? Connect via Wi-Fi. Be in a group shot: put the lens down and take the photo from your phone.

Closer than ever before
Some scenes are too far away for a smartphone to capture. From a towering cityscape to a stretching sandy beach, pull them closer with G Lens technology and 10x optical zoom. And when you’re filming, Optical SteadyShot Active mode cuts the effect of shaky hands for crisp, blur-free movies.

Shoot fast, shoot clear
Festivals, road trips or barbecues – don’t let a once-in-a-lifetime shot pass you by. The smart lens has a BIONZ image processor for clear photos and HD movies – even when the action’s fast. The moment might last a second, but you get smooth results that last a lifetime.

Capture the light
Low light? That’s no problem with an 18MP Exmor R™ CMOS sensor. Back-illumination technology lets more light inside the camera – no wires block the path – for brighter results. Everything stays sharp: Intelligent Auto Mode detects scenery and adjusts the settings for you.
