Sony today announced their first DSLR offering and an impressive suite of lenses and accessories.  This camera features the Minolta lens mount and uses a 10 megapixel 1.5x cropped sensor, similar, but probably not identical to what is used in the Nikon D200.  Along with the camera, Sony announced a number of impressive lenses - of special interest for underwater shooters are: 100mm f2.8 macro, 11-18mm wide zoom, 16mm fisheye, and an 18-70mm standard zoom.

  1. And how long before housings and ports will be available - that of course will not be compatible with any other brands or models. Ah - I love the camera industry.
