How thin will cameras get?

Edvarcl Heng | Oct 26, 2007

Maybe as much as its LCD. While the world has been fixated on the LCD panel size race, Sharp reversed its direction with a 0.68mm-thin LCD. It's almost certainly the world's smallest and will probably play a part in redefining the size of future portable gadgetry.

But despite its size, this LCD is not skinny on the specs. Flip it face up and it's a 2.2-inch LCD with a contrast ratio of 2,000:1 and a decent viewing angle of 176 degrees (comparable to typical LCD monitors). And besides cameras, MP3 players and mobile phones would undoubtedly benefit from it as well.
