Liquid Image's Ego Mini action camera cuts the size and the battery, but not the price
Liquid Image is following up on last year's Ego camera with the Ego Mini. It's the same basic concept: a tiny 1080p camera for shooting extreme sports that uses Wi-Fi to communicate in realtime with an iPhone, iPad, or Android device. When you turn on Wi-Fi on the mini, you connect to it with your phone and it you can directly view images and video, control the camera, and even see a live view of what it's seeing. The camera can support up to a 32GB microsSD card for storage, shoot 12-megapixel stills, or get up to 60fps if you're willing to drop down to 720p video.
The Ego Mini is indeed quite small, measuring 1.6-inches x 0.85-inches x 2.0-inches, but that size comes with more than one price. The first is that it doesn't have an on-camera LCD display or even a battery inside it — you power the camera by running a cord to an external battery. The second is price, a surprisingly high $199.99 for what's essentially a miniaturized version the $149.99 Ego. Still, if you're the kind of person who absolutely needs an action camera that can be mounted inside your motorcycle helmet, perhaps price is no object.
