Minox mints mini 24K gold-plated camera (Albuquerque Journal)
Rumor has it that secret agents get this camera as a retirement gift.

Collectors of exotic gadgets might want to take a peep at the Minox miniature
digital camera, freshly available in a swank 24K gold-plated tone.
The tiny camera literally fits in the palm of your hand with dimensions of 2.9
inches by 1.8 inches by 1.7 inches and a paltry weight of 4 ounces. While the
German manufacturer calls it a "thoroughly modern digital camera," however,
the specs reek of yesteryear.
This small shooter packs a 5.1-megapixel CMOS sensor with a 2-inch color LCD.
It comes with a detachable optical viewfinder, and there's an option out there
for a wide-angle lens. Speaking of optics, the lens is a 9.0mm (42mm in 35mm
format), and the hardware offers a 4x digital zoom.
Video capture is weak, as there's only a sole option of capturing 320x240 AVI
clips (up to 60 seconds). Thankfully, the mini-shooter has a generic mini-USB
port and a replaceable lithium ion battery.
Though I initially found the product through Japanese site Camera Watch, the
Minox 24K gold-plated special-edition DCC 5.1 digital camera is available
through Adorama for $299.
