Details of Sony A700 dSLR camera

Sony may today unintentionally provided the majority of details about a new high-end model in its Alpha digital SLR series.
The A700 would produce 12.24-megapixel shots aided by normal ISO sensitivity up to 3200, with boost up to 6400 . LCD are also better than most any camera in the class with a 3-inch, 921,000-pixel display that gets closer to the actual image, Sony says. Both CompactFlash and Memory Stick slots, allowing users to either use the industry standard or Sony's own format without blocking either slot, 11-point autofocus system, optical image stabilization, a sensor dust removal system, and HDMI output in the vein of the company's recent Cyber-shot home cameras.
The leak appears to be unintentional and so comes without a price or a release date, though the A700 is widely expected to launch worldwide within the next few weeks and ship soon after.

"Inside sources - mainly people who have been invited to press launch events - confirm that Sony is to show its new Advanced Amateur camera, thought to be called the Alpha 300, on Thursday September 6th. A press conference is being held in Italy on the 5th/6th, and journalists from European mainland countries have been invited to attend. Nigel Atherton, editor of What Digital Camera magazine, wrote on the Amateur Photographer public website forums that the product/s would be unveiled on the 5th. (I have now seen a programme for the event, and the main launch conference is on the 6th)..."

What will Sony upgrade from the predecessor Alpha A100 ... They should improve vertical grip, improved af, improved iso, screen visible in sunlight, weather proof body...

Pentax K1D ?

There were romuours that Pentax is ready to lunch his new K1D or however they will name it. But Pentax has already abandoned the MZ line. So if if K1D does exist and I think so... it would be something similar to K10D or the "ist" style or MZ-D



I suppose that it wil be a full frame sensor, min 12-16mp resolution, min 6fps etc.

Pentax flash with a guide number 54

German press release repository PresseBox has a press release issued by Pentax Europe GmbH (but not activated yet) about “powerful flashgun with a guide number 54 for Pentax DSLR cameras“. Perhaps this is the new flash that Pentax will roll out on August 31st - September 5th at the IFA Consumer Trade Show in Berlin.
