Interesting that in the point and shoot area the megapixel wars seem to be slowing down with some new cameras going for 10 megapixels and less noise while still others are heading for 14 megapixels. Since a lot of picture noise tends to be random, Sony is into blending shots taken at high speed called twilight mode to considerably reduce noise.
Rather surprising is the leak that the next Sony A950 and Sony A840 will be fullframe 32 megapixels, and yet still be in the same price range as the current A850 and A900.
Interesting too that HDR and multishot panoramas and stitching have become in camera features for Sony and 15 frames per second has become the speed to beat by the other two, now that Sony seems to have a faster processor.
It seems that they are planning to invade the digital medium format area as well with the Sony 1000 to compete with Red One.
Sony is certainly trying to appeal to every market as well as proving that they have the necessary money behind them to do so. It will be interesting to see what direction Canon and Nikon take in the competition for market share. The competition seems to bode well for photographers benefitting from better prices and more features.
