As I understand it, the deal transfers to Sony all of the K-M designs and the first Sony-branded camera will roll off the same factory as the previous K-M dSLRs. So, aside from Sony enhancing the electronics, it will probably look very much like the 5D or 7D and be fully compatible with previous K-M cameras and accessories. If I was Sony, I would make sure that the new camera used their Info-Lithium batteries and Sony sensors...we know they have a nice 10Mp sensor in the Sony R1...
