Sony Cyber-shot DSC-V3There’s still another 6 weeks to go until the end of 2004, but that hasn’t stopped Popular Photography from looking ahead to 2005 and the new cameras that will be introduced, including the the 7 megapixel Sony Cyber-shot DSC-V3 (pictured).

“Sony’s ultrathin Cyber-shot T1 and 8MP F828, with its electronic viewfinder (EVF), had people talking this year, but the electronics giant is about to let loose a couple of 7.2MP cameras just in time for the holidays. The more serious of the two is the DSC-V3 ($700 expected street), a follow-up to the DSC-V1. Into a 4.7x2.2x2.7-inch body, it packs a 2.5-inch LCD, Carl Zeiss 4X optical zoom lens, and both Memory Stick and CompactFlash card slots. It also boasts Sony’s Hologram AF illuminator, 49-point metering, NightShot infrared, and a hot-shoe.”
