Sony α900 – a 24.6 megapixel digital SLR
Whopping would be an understatement. Sony have just announced the α900 – a DSLR with more megapixels than the legs on three spiders. It’s also, according to the font of knowledge that is Yahoo! answers, approximately twice the resolution of a 35mm photo. To process images that big quickly enough, it’s got dual “BIONZ” processors onboard.

The late bank holiday has done Canon some good, for it’s now officially released details of the new EOS 50D, following last week’s faux pas.
So, to business. The 50D features a newly-designed CMOS sensor delivering a beefy 15.1 megapixels, and promising crisp, ultra-detailed, low-noise images as a result.

Shiny Preview: Nikon P6000 – the daddy of the compact world
You may have had a look at the Nikon P6000 in amongst all the other Coolpix releases this morning. You can’t have missed it, it stands out like a sore thumb, largely because it looks more like an SLR than a standard digi and it costs about the same at a whopping but worth it £429. Now available in 3D – well, through your 2D screen.

Leaf AFi 10 digital camera offers 56 megapixels and sensor rotation technology
I know it’s not all about the megapixels, blah blah, but when a 56 megapixel monster like the Leaf AFi 10 comes along — and particularly as it also sports best-of-class Schneider lenses — I can’t help but be impressed.

Flee digital camera: Take shots on the fly
The sheer brilliance of this concept design by Turkish designer Hagan Bogazpinar left me speechless. Flee is a bluetooth enabled digital camera that you can toss in the air. While airborne it will take shots at a cutomized time interval and send them back to your mobile phone via bluetooth. Just imagine the shots you’d get if you played catch with this!
