Both Samsung and Panasonic giving hints that upcoming compacts may have Android as the operating system,
According to Engdaget, Samsung is looking for a “open” camera operating system. Samsung R&D team has been researching on how to bring Android to its digital cameras.
In an recent interview to techradar, Barney Sykes (spokesperson for Panasonic UK) has said
“It’s one option for the future, but we have to be mindful of the consumer and the warranty that we offer. If we open up the platform to third parties, then we lose control of the warranty that we could offer the customer, because you never know what you’re downloading”
Sykes continued, “But it is very interesting, in particular when you look at some of the apps you can download, the filters, the effects you can make, it’s an interesting step. It’s always good to see innovation”
But its really very interesting to see what exactly would an OS like Android mean for digital camera users, over 400,000 photography apps available on the android marketplace, the upcoming compacts may allow you to make a phone call, share your album and updates on facebook, twitter and google+.
