Just for fun: Sony 2010 roadmap! (Remember it is almost certainly a FAKE and purely invented roadmap). But we are a rumor site and we like to dream a little bit ;)

An interesting article appeared in the forum Dyxum.
The last line of this article reads: “Just do not ask me how I found it …”
True or not – time will tell.
So …

CES, Las Vegas, 7-10 January 2010:
Sony will present a new camera A950. Based on the A900, but with 32 new megapixel sensor. No video.
Thus, relatively inexpensive 2 Sony full frame DSLR: A900 price of $ 1500 (recommended 1999 $) and A950

Between 2010 and CES-NAB-2010 will be announced a new 600mm telephoto lens.

NAB, Las Vegas, 10-15 April 2010:
Sony will present A1000. It will be a revolutionary hybrid SLR and vmdeokamery. Ie like RED system is roughly the same in appearance and price. 32 megapixels and HD video.
It is expected the new lens 28-300mm SSM, “shtatnik ideal for cameras and a new hybrid.
Will show the new camera lines A2xx and A3xx (smaller and cheaper ongoing) and new superbyudzhetnaya A150 camera without a system avtofukusirovki (this is something new).

Fotokina, Köln, 8-10 September 2010:
The new camera line A5xx.
A820 – the new budget full frame SLRs. 32 megapixels, plastic carcass, videos, built-in flash. The recommended price of $ 1500.

CES 2011:
Replacing the A950.

Interesting note.
Too beautiful, something to be true. Especially troubling time with accurate prices. And this in an unpredictable crisis:).
And PMA 2010 is missing.
