Any news on a follow up to the Sony Alpha DSLR-A100?

[schalicto]

Has anyone heard any news about a new version of this camera for 2007? Maybe more megapixels or something? I have a host of Minolta lenses that are burning a hole in my camera case, but the DSLR-A100 isn't quite good enough for me to justify the cost.

Sources from the big camera store chain that no one seems to like (the one that starts with an R) are telling me that they will not be receiving any new shipments of the A100. Further, all lenses, flashes, and accessories have been called back to the warehouse.

Sell you stuff and invest in Canon.

this is true
the warehouse for ritz/kits is now totally out of stock of the a100 and all flashes/lenses are being sent back immediately to the warehouse... not really sure whats up with that though

no one seems to like us? ...sad

Nope they sent back all body onlys but the lens and flahes are stil being shipped. Thou the A 700 is coming out soon. 12 MP and 5fps, and 6400 iso with 4 stop image stabalization control.

Here is the Pop Photo review.

Amazingly, Sony feel the Sony brand is cool enough to warrant a $1400 body and an expensive FF body instead of upgrading the camera that actually brings them money.

Arrogance and stupidity in one package. Marvellous.
