HIttade lite lösa rykten om Sonys eventuella planer.
Skall nog tas med en nypa salt (stor sådan) men det är ju kul att något över huvudtaget cirkulerar runt........just nu känns det lite si och så med om man skall stanna kvar på skeppet......Pentax K10 ser ju rätt trevlig ut ha ha.
Nåja....här är vad som står, och jag tar bara dom intresantaste inlägn.

This is not to start a rumor mill or stir a controversy, so please take this post with a grain of salt that it might be purely just a speculation. But, I ran across a couple of posts on Korean DSLR community forums (SonyDSLR.com; SLRClub.com) from some members (more than one) regarding the upcoming Sony DSLRs. They were from the current A100 owners who attended the A100 Seminar and the following social event, hosted by Sony Korea.
Below is the translation of the post:
I was fortunate enough to attend the social (drinking) event following the A100 Seminar, and heard some startling news regarding new dslrs from Sony – I sensed that they (Sony Korea reps) were wanting me to spread this news (call it a speculation). According to the Sony Korea representatives present at the social event, there will be two new dslrs, a successor to 7D and a successor to A100, in the imminent future – to use a direct quote from the post, “Sony has two new dslrs to be unveiled in near future, and Minolta engineers are working feverishly to fine-tune the cameras. One will be a successor to 7D, which was developed while benchmarking the Canon 5D, but it will be priced less and will surpass the image quality of 5D (suggesting that it will be a full-framed camera, but they never confirmed that it is), and Minolta engineers swear by it. The other will be a successor to the A100, and it will have very attractive looks, more in line with Sony styling, enough to lure many female users into the dslr arena. It’s only a matter of when to release these dslrs.”
Now, if Sony release a full framed dslr in near future, I am staying with Sony for good -- I was on the verge of jumping to the Pentax K10D.

I heard the same stateside today from a shop in Northern Minnesota. I was suprized I hadn't heard anything here first.
The shop owner said Sony had told him it would be very shortly after photokina and be about 14 megapixels.
Being my second body had to be returned, I think I will wait to get the 7D replacement instead of another 7D. Of course that WAS the plan since day one, but this whole Sony thing threw a wrench in it for me. I am tired and nervous from waiting!

lol,… no, I am not KMSEA -- unlike KMSEA, I never claimed to be involved with Sony/KM. But, seriously…., in all fairness to KMSEA, it is also plausible that there might have been a 7D successor, which never had a chance to be unveiled.
An excerpt from the article by Herbert Keppler reads, “....when in Japan last December, I inquired of KM’s president about the sensational new KM DSLR being developed at KM’s Sakai Technical Center. He smiled and said, “If you can be back at Sakai next May we might be able to show it to you.” With KM relinquishing its DSLR photo business, the visit was not to happen, but I fully believe that the camera exists and with proper Sony additions should find its way to Photokina.”
In any event, we will see whether Sony has anything hidden under its sleeves soon….
Ja det blev lite text ha ha......och det skall väl tas lätt som sagt.
Men det kanske är värt att vänta ett tag till då, hoppas bara efterträdaren till 7D är vädertätat, annars tappar dom nog en hel del till bla pentax.
Mvh.
