The sleek camera supports Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology and can send photos wirelessly to other DLNA-enabled cameras or computers.

Sony announced its Cyber-shot DSC-G1 camera, which includes wireless capabilities with support for Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) certification. The Cyber-shot DSC-G1 will be able to wirelessly transfer images to other DLNA-enabled computers or cameras, such as the Fujitsu FMV-BIBLO PC with the touch of a button.

The DSC-G1 also features a 6.1-megapixel sensor with 3X optical zoom, manual image stabilization and a large 3.5-inch LCD display with an impressive resolution of 921,000 pixels, which is much higher than the pixel density on most camera LCD screens.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G1 includes quite a bit of internal memory at 2GB, which Sony claims is enough to fit about 600 photos at the 6-megapixel setting. The camera also comes equipped with a memory expansion slot for Sony's Memory Stick Duo or Memory Stick PRO Duo cards. The camera also includes an organizational system for photos, where photos can be grouped by events or by the subject in the picture.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G1 will be released in April and will cost $600.
