Introducing the Yongnuo YN433 USB Camera

There is just one tiny Micro Four Thirds camera.

Yongnuo, a company that produces mirrorless cameras, lights, flashes, and lenses, has unveiled the YN433 USB camera, which supports autofocus and has a Micro Four Thirds lens mount.

The Yongnuo YN433 is a multipurpose USB streaming camera that can capture 4K video at up to 24 frames per second. It can be used for webcam or live streaming. Since the camera lacks an internal screen, you may wish to attach it to an external camera screen.

You may also use OBS on a PC or other apps that enable UVC streaming to operate the camera over a smartphone connection. The camera runs Android and can output 1080p video over HDMI in addition to supporting time-lapse photography. It may be powered by USB (PD/QC2.0) or LP-E6 batteries.

As far as cameras go, it's not the smallest Micro Four Thirds camera; other tiny mirrorless cameras are the incredibly small Panasonic Lumix GM1 (98.5×54.9×30.4mm, 204g including battery and memory); other tiny Micro Four Thirds cameras are the Z CAM E1 cinema camera (75.2×56.1×50.25mm, 216.6g including battery); however, like the GM1, this camera is no longer on sale. The Yongnuo YN433 is part of the Micro Four Thirds system and can be used with any Micro Four Thirds lens and Yongnuo's lenses, like the Yongnuo 12-35mm F/2.8-4 lens displayed here.
