CET: Sony has today revealed its new flagship prosumer digital camera,
the Cybershot DSC-F828. The F828 carries on the tradition of a split body
/ lens design which we first saw on the DSC-F505, the F828 however is
a very different beast. The F828 has a new Sony 2/3" type eight
megapixel four color (RGBE) CCD sensor, coupled to this is one of
the most impressive digital camera lenses ever seen, a Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar
T* seven times wide angle zoom (28 - 200 mm equiv.) with
a maximum aperture of F2.0 - F2.8, better still zoom is controlled
by a mechanically linked zoom ring. Oh yes, and it has RAW and
a Compact Flash slot! We have had a pre-production
DSC-F828 for a short amount of time, just long enough to produce a detailed
nine page preview of this amazing camera.
