Sony Alpha 290

The next entry-level SLR camera will be named Sony Alpha 290, apparently. It comes from a set of photographs leaked by Vietnamese www.Tinhte.com forum member dt0306.

This also gives some clues about the upcoming specification which makes it a major leak (or a major fake or rumour):

Sony Alpha 290 Specification:

  • APS-C size 14 mega-pixel CCD sensor
  • BIONZ image processor
  • Image stabilization by sensor moves
  • Sensitivity up to 3200 ISO
  • 2.7-inch LCD
  • Continuous shooting mode: 2.5 fps maximum (like the existing A230)
  • Compatible memory cards: Memory Stick Pro Duo or SDHC
  • Price about $530 including the 18-55mm zoom

and, to be as clear as possible here, no video capture on this camera.
