Fujifilm exhibits “Lensless Camera” prototype at Industrial Romanticism exhibition


Fujifilm exhibited a “Lensless Camera” prototype designed by Taki Yoshimura at the Industrial Romanticism exhibition in Japan:

The “lensless camera” exhibited by Fujifilm is a tool for reexamining photos taken with a smartphone. By selecting a subject category such as a person’s face or a car, related photos are extracted.

Taki Yoshimura of the company said, “I feel a sense of romance in things that have abandoned the way things were and created new value,” such as Cup Noodles, a ramen dish that does away with the bowl, and the “Fujifilm QuickSnap,” which combines film and a camera. (Nikkei)

Deals of the day: renewed Fujifilm GFX 50S for $2,684, used Fujifilm GFX 100 for $3,237
