Digital Imaging Systems has recently announced it will soon begin shipping its new, 9-mega pixel camera module to interested handset manufacturers. Called the DIS6931, the module is created with mobile devices in mind, and will be able to capture images at 3488x2616 resolution. Other specs that allow users to capture high-res images include a fast, under 300ms auto focus and less than 200ms of delay between when the shutter button is pressed to when the image is captured. The high-quality lens and mechanical shutter, as well as an integrated neutral density filter, all contribute to relatively high-quality output. The specs also let the module capture video at 720p resolution at up to 30fps. The DIS6931 further adds a macro mode for capturing images of small objects or precise details close to the lens.
The camera module will be on display at Digital Imaging Systems’ booth at the Photokina show, which kicks off on Tuesday. DIS promises to ship the module to handset manufacturers by the end of 2008, which could mean cellphones with 9MP cameras could be on the market early on in 2009.
