Revision history [back]

Ahoy sailors,

it came to my mind if it is possible to take a common DSLR(or Bridge?) camera, remove the viewfinder and the monitor and use the jolla instead as controller for the camera.

The Pros:

-you get a (relative) compact (semi-)professional camera with good optics and a large chips (8+ Magapixels)

-you use the the display of the jolla as viewfinder and a native application to control the camera (updates/features for the future)

-images a saved to the jolla/sdcard

So would this be possible with the I2C interface to control the chips on the "DSLR" module by the jolla?
