Sony announces WX1 and TX1 compacts with “Exmor R” Backlit CMOS sensor

Posted by Ian Tan at 11:13 PM

Earlier this month, Sony announced the Cybershot DSC-WX1 and the DSC-TX1 with “unprecedented advances in low-light performance with approximately twice the sensitivity” of normal compact cameras.

Remember the DSC-HX1 with the impressive sweep panorama?  Well, these new compacts will also feature this amazing technology.

In addition, it will also be able to do very high-speed shooting at 10 frames per second!  That’s definitely a lot more than my Alpha 200 =)

The very sleek TX-1 …
