Third Party Manufacturers / Lightning-fast AF speed in a CYBER-SHOT??

« on: January 30, 2012, 02:00:41 PM »

Hello,

I know it is not a canon, but still I find it interesting, especially for the dslr vs mirrorless topic.

Press release from sony

http://www.dpreview.com/news/2012/01/30/Sony_DSC-TX200V_DSC-WX70_DSC-WX50

"Lightning-fast AF speed of approximately 0.13 second in daylight, 0.25 seconds in low-light (speeds may vary based on shooting conditions)"

"In its description of the TX200V's fast AF, Sony suggests that the camera compares out-of-focus images to determine which direction to move the lens to achieve focus, avoiding the camera scanning for focus in the wrong direction. This sounds a lot like phase-detection to us but we're still chasing for more information."

It uses btw "Sony's latest 18MP back-lit CMOS sensor"

any thoughts?

thanks
