Olympus has released its ‘Air A01’ add-on camera for smartphones, which helps in delivering mirrorless camera image quality to pictures taken from smartphones. The Air A01 is a Micro Four Thirds lens mount with a 16 megapixel sensor. This sensor is the one that has been used in cameras like OM-D EM-5 II. The Air A01 further provides a burst speed shooting at 10 frames per second, an ISO range up to 12,800, Full HD 1080p video recording at 30 frames per second and a silent electronic shutter with a 1/16,000-second maximum shutter speed. It can also shoot RAW. The Air A01 has been priced at US$300, which includes only the body. When paired with a 14-42mm EZ lens, the camera will be priced at $500.
