UPDATE: 43rumors sources do also confirm the next Sony camera is coming.
UPDATE2: It is almost sure that Sony will not join the MFT system. They will have a completely independent system and lens-mount.

What a shake!
But how big will the sensor be?
The sensor will probably be APS-C but before we jump the bandwagon there is no clue whatsoever to whether this new camera will be a mirrorless design or not.
great news, competition is always beneficial for the consumer. I am always dubious of most product launched by Sony, they almost always try to release a proprietary system, will probably use some ultra-mini-memory-betaray-stick thing, but it would be nice if they adopted the m4/3 lens system and regular professional memory options.
Who did say 4/3 sensor?
