Too bad. I was hoping that the demise of the D50 meant Sony was
going to come out with a unit to compete with the Olympus LS-100:
P48 XLR inputs in addition to Sony's excellent PIP preamps. Oh
well. Who cares about DSD? Aside from the addition of SD media
and large internal memory, what is the benefit of this recorder
over the D50?

Some photos and people saying how much they like the D50 and M10.
It is made in China.
It can record and play back 2.8MHz DSD format:

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_Stream_Digital>
which is 4 times the bit rate of 16 bit PCM 44.1kHz and 2.666
times the
data rate of 24 bit PCM 44.1kHz.
