Originally posted by Mistral75 @JPT, could you please be kind enough as to explain what 「デジタル工事写真の高度化に関する協議会」が提唱する小黒板情報連携機能・信憑性確認に準拠 means? I can understand the words but not the concept behins them. I thank you in advance.
I think this means that it is designed to comply with a certification standard for digital imaging to document building standards. For example, if you get a contractor to do 10-year maintenance on your apartment building (the normal practice in Japan), they would photograph everything as evidence that what they did was necessary. My understanding is the Gx00 series records on "Write Once, Read Many" SD cards, so that the images can't be tampered with. It may have more security functions I'm not familiar with.
It's a niche for sure, but the construction industry in Japan is colossal, so they must need to buy these constantly.
These cameras have always been 1/2.3 senosors, so I'd assume this will too.
