Sony will announce two advanced compacts (DSC-HX9V and DSC-HX100V)

In December we told you that Sony would release the new DSC-HX9V and DSC-HX100V cameras. But we didn’t know that Sony would announce that on february 2nd and not at the CES event! Finally we got some new info from trusted sources:

The HX9v features at 16 Megapixel Exmor R sensor, a 16x wide zoom that starts at 24mm. It records 1080p60 at 28Mbit/s, it has a very fast autofocus (0.1sec.) and 10fps.
The HX100v has the same features but a wider zoom range (30x that starts with 27mm).

The HX9v costs $350 and the Hx100 $450.

P.S: We will post new A77 and NEX rumors as soon as possible!
