Sony Unveils New Camera Kit to Help the Visually Impaired 

Sony Electronics has partnered with QD Laser on a new camera kit that will help people with visual impairments. The kit includes Sony’s DSC-HX99 compact camera and QD Laser’s Retissa Neoviewer viewfinder. The viewfinder uses laser retinal technology to project a digital image from the camera directly to the retina. Combined with Sony’s compact camera, the kit gives photographers a better view of landscapes, faces and signs. It also can take RAW format videos and allows for high-speed AF shooting.
