Wonderful wine in the Chianti region… not so much for the DSL, hence the email footer…
I finished a conference call and turned to a string of luminous pearls encircling the hilltop villa…
I am surprised by some of the images from the cell phone camera, which lacks any moving parts.
Later this year, MEMS technology (tiny silicon actuators and components made with a semi fab) will bring optical focus, shutter and then optical zoom to these pencil-eraser-sized cameras…
Sometimes smaller is better, as the MEMS autofocus can be as fast as the human eye, allowing for instaneous and continuous spot focusing. It’s quite a sight when you pan the camera from foreground to background elements and the focus snaps into place instantly, just like our natural visual perception…
Oops, a geek digression from the beauty of the moment…
