Sony alpha 850 Full-Frame SLR Camera Unveiled

Sony unveiled today the Sony alpha 850 DSLR camera with 24.6MP resolution.
The Sony alpha 850 shares the same 24.6 megapixel sensor and virtually all features of the flagship DSLR-A900, introduced last year. Like its full-frame sibling, the A850 fully exploits the creative possibilities of the alpha family of lenses that includes premium full-frame optics from Carl Zeiss, plus five high-performance G Lens models.

The supplied high-capacity InfoLITHIUM rechargeable Battery Pack (NP-FM500H) delivers power for up to 880 shots (approx.) per charge.

The Sony DSLR-A850 full-frame digital SLR camera is available from September 2009 and the 28-75mm lens will be available from November 2009. The price of the Alpha 850 is supposed to be affordable. The A900 sells for $2,699.99 on Amazon.com.
