The new 8.1mp Sony Cybershot DSC-H10 is relatively similar to DSC-H3 announced less than 6 months ago, with the exception that it uses 3-inch instead of 2.5-inch LCD display. The 1/2.5” Super HAD is twice better in sensor sensitivity and has 6db better smear rejection ratio than a typical CCD. It’s being used in Sony’s Alpha line of DSLR cameras. The rest of the spec doesn’t look like a major improvement over predecessor H3. It’s still having the same Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 10x optical external zoom range of 38-380mm (35mm equiv.)

Other features include face detection, advanced sport shooting modes, movie mode up to 640×480 in 30fps and ISO of up to 3200 with optional telephoto conversion lenses. Sony says the H10 will be ready to ship around May with MSRP of $300.
