Sony Announced Hybrid Digital Camera

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the put-everything-good-in-a-bag-and-shake-it dept.

Anna Merikin writes to tell us that Sony has begun shipping a new digital camera, the R1. With the R1 Sony has married the big digital SLRs' sensor with the live preview display of the compact cams. But to do so, it is not an SLR although it is about the same size as one. The new architecture also allows wider-angle optics to be used, but it does not have interchangeable lenses.
