Sony announce new black DSC F-55K

Sony Japan announce new black coloured DSC F-55KB (known as the F-55 outside Japan). No other specification changes are made and the camera is noted for release in "July 1999" at 10,000 YEN more (~ US$82) than the older silver coloured camera.

This seems to be in keeping with the new black look of the recently announced revamped Sony DSC-D770. Whether this camera will be available outside Japan is as yet unknown.

PS. I'm back!
