New patented lens made of liquid paves way for slimmer digital
cameras
Named Fluidlens, this lens is made of liquid and is
no bigger than a contact lens, but can achieve an optical zoom of up to 10
times, matching the zoom capabilities of lenses found on mid-range and high-end
digital cameras and superior than most cellphone cameras which use digital zoom
that relies on software rather than the lens to zoom in on an
object.
