The PMA tradeshow was somewhat uneventful this year. All the big camera announcements were made either at CES in January or before PMA opened.
Other than a few point-and-shoot cameras, the biggest announcement this year was a compact Sony Alpha concept camera to be released later in 2010(Sony Compact Alpha announcement). That the biggest news of the show was a price-less, spec-less concept camera that was only shown behind glass, says a lot about PMA this year. The new Alpha is (will be) a compact, changeable lens, mirrorless system camera like the new Samsung NX10 and the Panasonic and Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras.
