SonyR1.jpgDavid Pogue has taken the 10.3 megapixel Sony "hybrid" compact/SLR camera for a test run. He calls the color and detail of its images "breathtaking," but has some problems with the camera's design. He didn't seem to care for the "lost perks" of a fixed lens, and pointed out that the rotating screen wasn't "Sony's best work." Other nitpicks: no movie or macro modes, and few shooting modes.
