"Sony today introduced the Party-shot

 

I can see the soccer moms now with these.

One question, when will it grow legs and a robotic voice to interact with the subjects its photographing. when it does re-post under the same title till then its just another novelty.

That reminds me of sony's newest slogan

Sony we only sell baloney.

But seriously there is enough competition in the photography world now, where pros dont need to have to compete with AI also.

 

Personally I think it could be a decent tool for photographers. Imagine setting up some of these at a wedding reception, with a decent MP sensor you can crop creatively enough to get some decent small prints of moments you'd otherwise miss.
