In August 2003 Sony revealed the latest in a long line of split body swivel design prosumer digital cameras, the eight megapixel DSC-F828. Two long years have passed and it's time for the new Sony prosumer digital camera; the unique and radical Cyber-shot DSC-R1. The R1 drops the split body design of its predecessors in favor of an SLR-like fixed body which is remarkably similar to that of the then ground-breaking and some consider legendary DSC-D700.
Features & Controls Size really does make a difference! Compare the size of the DSC-F828's 8MP CCD imager with the APS-class 10MP CMOS imager of the DSC-R1. Top-class image quality is guaranteed through the inclusion of a large-sized Sony CMOS image sensor (effective 21.5mm x 14.4mm), uniquely

Sony's new DSC-R1 10.3 Mega-Pixel digital camera is smoking hot. Find out why you should wait and purchase this camera when it's out.
The first digicam with built-in lens to employ an APS-C size sensor, the 10-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-R1 received a great deal of attention when it was first announced. News sites around the world emphasized Sony's claims of substantially wider dynamic range and much higher sensitivity vs. cameras like the Cyber-shot DSC-F828 with its up until now standard digicam sensor size. Those predictions were based on the oversized 21.5x14.4mm CMOS sensor and larger photosites. The pixel pitch (size) on this new digicam increased from 2.7 micrometers to 5.49 micrometers.
