Clearly based around the DSC-T1 the DSC-T11 appears to be even slimmer still and does away with the T1's sliding front cover to give the camera a completely flat front profile. The DSC-T11 also gets a larger, more promenant chromed strap attachment bar which runs down its left side."<br /><br /><img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/sonydsct11.jpg" /><br /><br />From the form factor, this new camera appears to be a competitor to Casio's Exilim and the Minolta Dimage. The DSC-T11 has a five megapixel CCD and three times folded optical zoom lens. Date of release or the price have not been announced yet, but I like the clean cut design. As usual, it appears that it will take MS Pro. This is not part of the specs but the image of the side-view of the camera clearly shows the flash memory door labeled as Memory Stick Pro.<br /><br />Sony also announce 4 other cameras - <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/news/0402/04021105sony4dcs.asp">Sony DSC-P100</a>, <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/news/0402/04021106sonydscw1.asp">Sony DSC-W1</a>, <a href="http://www.dpreview.com/news/0402/04021105sony4dcs.asp">Sony DSC-P73</a> and the Sony DSC-P43. The Register also has an article (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/04/14/sony_digicams/<br />) on these new cameras.
