MP Wars - No. Not Politics.

10.3 Megapixel.

Okay. Relax.. Breathe..
Don't Gasp for Oxygen, yet.

$1,000. :)





Sony's new CyberShot R1. This Digital Camera of the Next-gen has a unique LCD that is foldable/ rotatable. That allows you to take pictures in angles you have not imagined. Its got 10.3 Effective megapixel, that could easily count the Hairs on my moush very easily.

Its got all the features of other Cybershots, except for the Electronic Viewfinder, and the state-of-the-art LCD. Take a look at this and this, so that you will get a real idea of what is so good about the LCD.

Rea a review of this camera, here, just-in-case you are inclined to buy this 10.3 MP. Just let me know, if you are buying one. I'd like a life size picture of mine taken.. huh !!

Wonder where this megapixel war is going to end. There is already a Leaf, manufacturing 22 Megapixel cameras. This would produce images that could be blown up to a size of a football field (says Gizmodo). Mamamiya !!

I know, people are not that interested in having an increased MP camera.. but then, the depth and colors (Sony Cybershot R1 has a unique color enhancer too) they produce makes me wait for a Digi Cam with a very high resolution capability. Of course, Iam waiting for the money too :)

Hey Keerthi..

This looks ok, I was never an ardent fan of SONY cameras. I am not going to say anything about this till I actually see this.

But one thing, this price range is very normal for these specs. To put it right, Sony gives the cheapest cameras among equal spec competitions. So dont gasp at the price yet. Save some breath till you visit the Nikon Site.

I read the announcement in some websites ( www.dcresource.com is from San Francisco). Might be a hit...! But people prefer to change lenses..and be more versatile...! With this camera that can't be done.!

KRTY said...

venkittu sir, you are right. My uncle had the smae comment, when i told him about this.. but then.. ennamo theriyala !! nalla irukku !!

changing lenses funda laam pannanumna SLR venum..

Nikon's backward compatibility is legendary

The Nikon F mount was first seen in 1959 was still relevant till the mid 90s.

its not just a camera, its investing in a system.
