The November 18 announcement is real! Sony is going to present a new “broadcast solution”.

Our source were right with his “November 18 announcement rumor“. So is he also right when the says that Sony is going to present a Panasonic GH1
Thanks MNZ for sending the link!

If the Sony event on the 18th is for a “presentation about broadcast solution”, then that doesn’t really sound good for the probability of a new camera being announced on that date. May be Sony will bring a GH1 with them and tell the attendees, if people really want video on digital still cameras then they can simply buy one like this from our arch rival, Panasonic.
Running that page through the translator I come up with is this:
Nov. 18 – SONY and broadcast equipment business explanatory meeting
If someone is fluent in Japanese it’d be interesting to see what it really translates to
ソニーã€æ”¾é€æ©Ÿå™¨äº‹æ¥èª¬æ˜Žä¼š
Sony, Business Presentation (about) Broadcast Machinery
I’m sorry to trouble you with my vague translation.
In apology for that here is some another rumor I saw on the web:
– Come with “Alpha” brand.
– Made for high-end movie with Alpha lenses.
– The camera is not compact category.
– That is, if anything, like camcorder.
