Sony Europe Announces PD170P

I'm going to buy it when it comes out. I use the cameras for u/w use and the lower light ability is nothing but good news for me. Also the 24 step aperture control is good news. I just hope street prices meet the old prices too... but that's really asking for too much.

On another site somebody from the UK said their dealer told them Sony would be raising prices by 15% soon, FWIW. It's also interesting to note that the only announcements have been for the PD-170p in Europe. Sony's US website still makes no mention of it whatsoever. Very strange....
