Sony introduces new memory cards for its D-SLR camera that everyone should be familiar with

We've grown accustomed to Sony releasing a new memory card format every few months or so for use in its portable media players and digital cameras. So imagine our surprise with Sony's announcement that it would produce memory cards based on the existing CompactFlash standard.

The move isn't a total blindside to those within the industry considering that Sony entered the D-SLR market earlier this year. Sony’s highly-praised Alpha A100 supports both CompactFlash and Memory Stick PRO Duo/Memory Stick Duo, so a move to Sony-branded CompactFlash cards was inevitable.
