Lots of cool things already mentioned on this forum. But this is the real deal for sure.
The picture that is circulating is correct. Two Knobs on top,
I have not seen any other pictures.
10.2 MP CCD with Super Steady Shot (AS) and Dust removal function.
3 FPS in jpeg, 3 FPS in RAW up to 6 frames.
Minolta Flash Shoe.
Both CF and Memory Stick compatible
2.5" LCD of course
Nothing else much new here and I was not allowed to "memorize" the whole thing.
What was super cool though was the picture of the lenses.....
I saw for sure the 16mm, 20mm! I recognized these from shape alone.
Further back there was two "white" lenses! Looked like the 70-200 APO SSM f2.8 and either the 200 or 300 APO SSM f2.8.
Sorry I could not discern any other lenses 100% but there were about 15 or so on the brochure.
The system map on the back looked exactly like the Minolta ones with 2 flashes a "56 and a 36" as well as 2 macro flashes. Remote cords were shown.
I asked about price for this model and he said it should cone in at just over $1000 Canadian.
They have a section in the store all set up for the camera and lenses. They are all going for training in early June. I asked the guy at the store about the next cameras and lenses and he said that he should ask about the upcoming products at the training session.
Well that’s it for now. I'll see if I can go back and take another peek if anyone has any questions.
