Exemode SQ28 Keychain Digital Camera Breaks Cover

Tweet

Given their ultra portable,”pocket-sized” design, small digital cameras have flooded the market, as of late. And although Flip Video — one of the few companies to charm you, me and video bloggers out there writing about their daily doings, have done great so far (with their video camera offering more than “decent” video quality), the folks from Exemode have turned into a powerful competitor, as the company have announced that their SQ28 camera is now official.

Up until now Exemode have rolled out other products, too, but none proved to be a true seller. However, this time around, their SQ28 Pocket Digital Camera supposedly has what it takes to get to your heart. Although small enough to fit on a keychain, the SQ28 can still record video. but the big drawback is that it records video at low resolution.

Just to make things clear, the new Exemode SQ28m is a 21g digital camera that only measures  53 x 23 x 19 mm. The camera can capture stills at 1280 x 1200 pixels and record video at 320 x 240 resolution at 8fps (really low) without audio in either Motion JPEG or AVI format. The culprit? A 1.95 megapixel camera sensor.

On top of that there are also a number of color filters that can make the result look like those taken on a retro 8mm, and has a 64GB of built-in storage space and a microSD to expand that up to 2GB of storage.

It may not record HD video like Flip Video, but it beats it hands down when it comes to charm. The SQ28m will go on sale in Japan tomorrow priced at ¥5,985 ( ~ $65)
