At the same time they use a A300/A350's body? No way, this has got to be a fake. I do believe the A500 and A550 are real as was posted on DPREVIEW.COM in the Sony SLR forum. Two members there both were visiting the Sony site and a drop down menu listed the A500 and A550, so they took screen shots of it. It looks to be legit, more than I can say for these pics.

You can see the 7 is badly put on. This looks like a bad photoshop version.

"17.2 megapixels"?? CCD?? Is very probably, but it is so high... "2.7-inch 920,000 pixels articulating LCD"?? Vary probably... "8 and 9 AF points (not sure what the machine translation is saying here)"?? If it is like a300/a350 surely will have 9 AF, but I think that a future and possible a500 will have the AF system on a700 with 11 AF. "0.98x viewfinder (coverage?)"?? It is bigger than a700!! The coverage could be 95% like other alphas except a900. "ISO 100-12800 4 frames per second"?? A CMOS sensor without doubts... I don´t think Sony put “a500″ on a a300/a350 camera…
