I’ve always liked Minox cameras. They make those “spy” cameras you see all the time in movies. The only trouble is that they use film, and dealing with specialty film is not something I’m interested in.

Well, rumor has it that they will be releasing their first digital spy cam. Now I know that there are already (cheaper) ones out there, but they aren’t, well, a Minox. Take a look:

If those photos are accurate, it breaks into two pieces. The one of the left is the bare-bones portion, with just the camera and no flash. Add on the other part and it appears that you get a display and flash. I’m guessing that part is bigger to handle the batteries for the flash.

Pretty slick looking. The official announcement will be next Tuesday. Hopefully it’s as cool as it looks and (somewhat) affordable. (I know it will be pricy, I hope not too pricy.) I guess I really like this camera because of the size. Something tiny that you can always carry, yet not a piece of junk.
