This seems very interesting and promising. Basically a CMOS with twice the light sensitivity with lower noise.

But with 60mps isn't it going to be more for video than photo cameras?

Note the part that says "Sony triples DSLR sales this year"!

These new sensors will be coming to future Nikon models.
