Why sony why??????

Sep 10, 2008

Well I hate to say I told you so,but for those who were following some of my high MP concerns about the 900, the verdict is in. The 900 is a dismal performer when it comes to noise.Apparently even at low ISO settings an unacceptable amount of noise is present. This camera had so much promise. If only sony hadn't tried to overextend its sensor and stick with 16MP we might have had a stellar camera. But for 3G this is unacceptable. Why does sony let its marketing dept run its engineering dept?
