    hm… looks like there will be a small race between Sony and Nikon.
    Though my guess is that Nikon gonna make it first (they seem to care less about big event which the Photokina in late September is, than the Sony do), though Sony will be MUCH much better, as Nikon gets contrast AF while Sony will have phase detection AF, which makes immerse difference.

    Either way, looks like new era of DSLR is coming. Sony promised to make great video-capable DSLR and according to this – it won’t have amazing video capabilities alone, but also will be a stunning still-photo camera.

    Only if the EVF will have quality good enough…. (and preferably: the option to calibrate it)

    It remains to be seen just how fast these machines really are–I hope they carry over the aggressive specification into the maximum sync and shutter speeds.

    Doesn’t pelix mean semi-transparent mirror?
    This is rumored to have EVF…
    That would mean miror is just for phase detect sensor right?
