(SR3) Popular Photography Hint at A700 Replacement
In the new edition of Popular Photography, they say a new replacement is coming out soon:
“…(the A700) may be an oldie, but it’s still a goodie for its rugged build, fine imaging, and thoughtful design. We strongly suspect Sony will bring out a replacement soon.”

The alphamountadministrators explains very well why this is more than a simple rumor:”For Popular Photography to make such a strong suggestion tells me quite a bit. It’s highly doubtful they would make such a strong statement such as that without some sort of inside knowledge, of which they could not of course confirm nor deny.”
So finally the Sony Alpha 730 is coming soon?
(SR4) Sony major announcement to new product line will be made in 3 months.
Just received this:
“I was just at the Henry’s photographic show in Toronto today. I also spoke with someone at the Sony booth and they said that a major announcement to the product line will be made in 3 months. They would not confirm or deny if it would be a mirrorless, interchangable lens camera.”
I bet Sony will soon announce their new APS-C mirrorless compact camera system!

Is Sony working on a 3D still camera?
SonyAlphaRumors found a new Sony patent (September 24, 2009 patent NR. 20090237493) which shows a digital 3D camera. The text clearly says that such tecnology will be used in video and still cameras (and use CCD sensors)
