Not too long after the cute Digital Harinezumi was causing lots of drooling within the low-fi/toy camera community … out comes some rumours about a new version of it. Those guys from Four Corners Dark has just released official details about this new Digital Harinezumi 2. It now features sound recording capability as well as a new 3mp sensor. Other details about it are …

I went ‘phew~’ when I saw the new Olympus E-P2 because there wasn’t any need for me to upgrade since I ain’t like using the EVF and it doesn’t come in white. But … I am very worried now. The specs of the Harinezumi 2 does sound really tempting but I’ve yet to put my Digital Harinezumi to full use. I’m broke. I need to rob a bank. Anyone wanna join me? 😀
