Sony Corporation(Sony), announces today that development in digital SLR cameras compatible with Maxxum/Dynax lens mount system will be withdrawn. Ever since we decided and announced restructuring guidelines of our businesses on November 4, 2005, with Konica Minolta, we have been considering practical and detailed plan, and we would like to announce our decision made today. Sony Corporation has regretted to cause any inconvenience to Konica Minolts customers due to the decision they made this time.

nice one there Don.. i was stunned for a while... :confused:
 

Ok drudkh, I admit it, u got me back there until I noticed something special with ur posts. :bsmilie:
 

heh...good one Don...got me there for a bit....heh...
 

this is a cruel april fools' joke...lol
 

Cannot be lah. The rumour mill is that a new Sony DSLR is already under trial by a few specially selected professionals:think:
 

Actually I immediately thought it was an April Fool's joke. And that's not because I remembered the date. The reason is that it would be incredibly foolish to abandon the Minolta AF mount system... not sound at all financially... this is SONY's last chance to break in to the DSLR market...
 

i thought it's real until the big blank space,was waiting for an image to come up.
 

I was taken back until I found the suspicious BIG BLANK SPACE... :bsmilie: Good one Don..!! :bsmilie: :sticktong :p
 

oh a jolly good one :bsmilie:

ok but let's keep our fingers cross too that it doesn't actually happen!! ;p
 

In todays fast evolving world, never say never.
