Epson R-D1 Digital Rangefinder Camera
|
Shown
only in prototype form and behind glass at PMA this year Epson has today
fully revealed their R-D1 'Rangefinder Digital Camera'. This camera has
come out of a collaboration between Epson and Cosina, it supports Leica
M mount and L mount with an adapter and has a six megapixel APS size sensor
with an output image size of 3008 x 2000 pixels (which sounds to me like
the sensor used by Nikon in the D100 & D70). Epson's timing for this
announcement is the 2004 Photo Expo to be held in Tokyo between 19th and
21st March. This announcement has received a lot of attention from the
Japanese websites who have lots of images of the camera, see inside for
links. UPDATE: Specifications added.
