CES 2012: Sony stand report
The Sony stand this year is one of the largest in the CES Central Hall, covering all of the Japanese electronics giant's product categories including computers, laptops, tablets, TVs and audio equipment. The imaging section occupies a substantial portion of the stand real estate and, as expected, visitor attention is focused on the company's latest mirrorless and translucent mirror models such as the flagship NEX 7 and SLT-A77. However, Sony's only new cameras for CES are the rather unexciting Cyber-shot W610, W620 and W650 compact cameras.
