I always wanted a camera with a smartphone-like interface to capture photos. It seems now I have one to try. Yongnuo YN450 is the full-fledged mirrorless camera running on Android 7.1 Nougat. It has a 5-inch 1080p touch display and supports Canon’s EF line of lenses.
It really looks like the hybrid of camera and Android phone. The camera comes with 16-megapixel Four Thirds sensor. It can shoot in RAW and can record 4K video at 30 fps.

It packs eight-core Qualcomm processor, 3 GB RAM, 32 GB of storage with an option to expand storage up to 64GB and 4000 mAh battery. There is also an.8 megapixels front camera for selfies. It also features a headphone jack. It also has dual LED flash, dual MIC system, and GPS. Specs are similar to smartphones, but it supports DSLR lenses. So, the phone can now also shoot camera like images.
The android-powered camera will have several advantages as it can automatically upload photos to could services and makes it easy to share on social media. We do not know if there will be the Play store access to install more apps.
We still do not know the pricing details or availability details.
So, this is actually a smartphone with the advanced rear camera supporting big lenses for better photography.
