See the storage specifications, screen ratios, and the price of 199 yuan for the new transparent Godox C100 camera with USB OTG support.

A new transparent camera with flexible storage in up to four image ratios (16:9, 4:3, 3:2, and 1:1) was launched by the manufacturer Godox at the starting price of 199 yuan (approximately R$ 152.18 in direct conversion). Named C100, the compact camera debuted in the Chinese market equipped with a microSD card slot up to 128 GB and support for data transfer via USB OTG.

The device was designed in a minimalist way with only 65 grams to function as a daily use accessory, solving the quick transfer of photos and videos to cell phones or computers via USB-C cable. Featuring a viewfinder that displays guides over the real environment and an automatic system that balances shutter speed and aperture through center-weighted metering, the model combines technology and retro style.

The versatility at the moment of clicks and recordings is one of the great highlights of the project structured by the manufacturer.

Users find in the device the freedom to capture scenes by switching between four different screen ratios: the square format of 1:1, the traditional options of 3:2 and 4:3, and the panoramic format in 16:9.

On the other hand, to support the volume of files generated in various resolutions, the electronic device does not rely on fixed internal memory. The camera uses a dedicated slot for inserting a removable microSD card, offering compatibility and support for storage capacities up to 128 GB.

Fast connectivity and market availability

The hardware architecture was designed to bring the moment of photographic capture closer to the instant of digital sharing. Thanks to support for data transfer via USB OTG, the flow of heavy media occurs without any complications.

Therefore, a simple cable connected to the USB-C output is enough to empty the memory card. However, the model was initially made available only in the Chinese market for 199 yuan (about R$ 152.18). Thus, those residing in other regions will need to wait, as there is no official information yet about the launch of the transparent camera in other countries.

The operation of the innovative translucent display

The main technological attraction in the body of the device is its distinctive screen, which has a light transmission level of over 50%. This innovative display projects system information directly over the view of the real environment in front of the photographer.

Thus, without losing sight of the scene, the operator of the equipment can check the remaining battery charge level and follow the guide lines for perfect framing.

Meanwhile, the internal system works in a coordinated manner to ensure correct captures: the metering mechanism evaluates the light contained in the central region and commands the simultaneous adjustments of the shutter speed and aperture to maintain balanced exposure.

Dimensions and minimalist design of the transparent camera

The physical shape of the electronic device was meticulously reduced to ensure total portability and allow it to change function, also acting as a retro aesthetic fashion accessory in daily life.

Technical specifications of size and weight:

  • Chassis width: Exactly 10.4 centimeters.
  • Body height: Vertical measurement of 7.17 centimeters.
  • Lateral thickness: Thin structure with 1.91 centimeters.
  • Total mass: Lightweight device weighing about 65 grams.
