The 'EXTU' Camera is Useful in Virtually Any Setting

— April 17, 2012 — Tech
The 'EXTU' camera is every filmmaker's dream device. It is built for extreme utility, hence the EXTU name. Its diversification in abilities allows it to seamlessly act at the user's will. Mathias Mayrhofer, the design of this camera, had created the concept to delve deep into the needs of filmmakers -- just making a camera that can work underwater won't cut it in today's movie world.

This camera is built with an interchangeable lens port, external battery packs, a two-way flippable touch screen, ergonomic handling and controls and of course, it's waterproof. It's got shock-absorbing capabilities if it needs to be (or is accidentally) dropped and the lenses can also be mounted on the battery for wireless filming. This camera makes shooting extremely flexible, so directors need not fret about paying for extra equipment.
Trend Themes
1. Extreme Utility Cameras - The trend of designing cameras for extreme utility will require the creation of more cameras with diversified abilities.
2. Interchangeable Lens Port Cameras - The trend towards interchangeable lens ports on cameras will create demand for more versatile camera equipment.
3. Wireless Filming Cameras - The trend towards wireless filming will increase demand for cameras with mountable batteries.
Industry Implications

2. Camera Manufacturing Industry - The camera manufacturing industry will benefit from the demand for more versatile and diversified cameras with features such as interchangeable lens ports and wireless filming capabilities.
3. Technology Industry - The technology industry will benefit from advancements in camera design and equipment, such as the creation of shock-absorbing and waterproof cameras like the EXTU.
