Sony's 24MP Full-Frame 35mm Sensor

"The read speed of this 24.81 Megapixel sensor is 6.3 frames per second – in 12bit colors. Obviously expect to find this sensor in upcoming high-end digital SLR cameras from Sony. The production of this senor will begin sometimes in 2008, so we think that it’s likely that the first camera will appear sometimes in Q4 2008."
Sweet. I don't think I will be able to afford a camera with this sensor any time soon but I am happy to see this sensor because it isn't going to be long before similar full-frame sensors are available in Canon and Nikon cameras which will eventually, and hopefully, reduce the costs down.
