Canon has a new mini projector that doesn’t require a PC on the way. While it doesn’t look like it’ll have a lot of applications for the photographer, it looks to be a neat little gadget for a niche market.</p>
<p><strong>From Nikkei Technology:</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>Canon Marketing Japan Inc will release the “Mini Projector M-i1,” which can project video without using a personal computer, Sept 7, 2017.</p>
<p>The company expects that the projector will be used for making a presentation outside, having a conference in open space, projecting images at a construction site, etc.</p>
<p>The projector can project video by reading out data stored in the embedded memory or a USB memory stick by operating the touch pad. With a built-in battery, it can be used for up to two hours, and it can be used as a mobile battery for charging a smartphone, etc. <a href="http://techon.nikkeibp.co.jp/atclen/news_en/15mk/091201579/">Read the full article</a></p>

... With a built-in battery, ... it can be used as a mobile battery for charging a smartphone, etc...

.. There is no manufacturer's suggested retail price, but it will be sold at ¥29,800 (approx US$273, excluding tax) at Canon Online Shop...

That's ok then, not too expensive for a "Canon made" battery charger!, Much better than $45 for the Canon Protecting cloth wrap PC-E1:

Now they seem to start competing with LG in the mini and micro projectors world :)
